  • ehhhh

    Israel and its donors are definitely involved in a lot of US dealings… but saying “US media is controlled by Israel” is a colloquial version of “Jews control the media”. It’s hyperbolic and not true. Especially in this day in age of tech with so many indie blog/stream journalist. More importantly, that kind of exaggeration is not helpful while both invoking and inviting actual nazi rhetoric.

    You can be critical of Israel without quoting literal nazi propaganda.



  • Mamdani might be limited legislatively to the bounds of NYC, but his popularity, charm and thus politics extend far beyond that. He doesn’t think he’s on the same stage, the media is literally putting him on the same stage. His ideals and campaigns are being widespread far far beyond just the city he oversees.

    There’s as much coverage of Mamdani as there is of governors/senators, more in many cases. Like, who even knows whotf is the governor of Wyoming? or a senator of South Dakota? You could look it up, but that the point, you have to go find out, they’re not popular. Popularity is politics…

    “The Amazing Digital Circus”, an indie animation show on youtube.

    I have a 13 year old daughter, which is how I know. Trying to appreciate what shes into has us watching it as a family.

    But, ngl, its pretty dogshit. It is this generations version of “lol so random, cheeze” entertainment with a healthy dose of “im14andthisisdeep” edgyness. The kind of writing that only a 13 year old, or someone with the mental maturity of a 13 year old could appreciate.

    Animation is pretty solid though, especially for a small indie team, so, I’ll give it praises for that.

    And the fandom is fucking insufferable. Exactly the kind of fandom you’d expect full of 13 year old quirky edgelords.
