    Seems rather depressing to me but maybe I am a Luddite.

    Is it really higher quality? I had a membership for a year and didn't find much I was interested in purchasing food wise, at least.

    It's screens. We don't allow my son to use social media and he is still addicted to using an Ipad. We have to forcefully remove it. He just wants to play games on it constantly. He…

    Do you have any sources for this? I know a lot of Jews in the U.S. support Israel, but not sure why they would care about settlements if they don't live there. And if what you say …

    Agree with your post. As a Jewish American, I have been advocating that it would be better for Americans and even Jews if we stop sending money to Israel and put political pressure…

    As a Jew and I don't think that is true at all and feel it is a bit of a dangerous characterization. Jews have just as much scruples as any other groups. What I do think is true is…

    As a Jewish American, I don't think it's antisemitic. We really shouldn't be sending any money or weapons to Israel or joining them in any wars. What I do think is a bit antisemiti…

    No idea why this is being downvoted. It seems only en-vogue on HN voice outrage about Israel.

    Thanks for the clarification.

    There are multiple different conversations which you are referencing there which is making it difficult to respond to your points. On Epstein, I do think the Catholic Church scanda…

    Thanks for the perspective. It could be that I am being overly sensitive to the discourse around this. As someone who avoids forums where these ideas are promoted, it's hard to kno…

    I am not trying to rehabilitate Epstein. He was a vile and disgusting sex trafficker, rapist, pedophile, whatever you want to call him. I am all for going after anyone else who can…

    Sure, there are tons of conspiracy theories about Nigerian spies... But I'm not sure why it's more likely that Epstein was a Mossad spy over CIA or Russian or any other spy agency.…

    Nice spin on what I said. Never "defended" Epstein or claimed what he did was legal, rape, sex trafficking... Nor did I defend "old farts fucking teenagers". What I did do was poin…

    > The age of consent being this low is to avoid prosecuting 15-20 yo having sex with each other. Not for gross old men to coerce minors into having sex with them. I don't buy this …

    Not shocking that this is downvoted around here. On X and the amount of anti-semitic content this is fueling is scary. As a Jewish person, I can't help feel that the magnitude of t…

    Shocking this is downvoted with the age of consent being 15 in countries like France.

    The OP also mentioned Epstein, a Jew, and then made the leap that he must have been associated with Mossad.

    The antisemitism is here. Pedophilia is essentially legal in Europe with the age of consent in many countries.

    As far as I am aware, Gates was not knowledgeable of the extent of Epstein's crimes. At the time they met in 2011, Epstein had been convicted of soliciting a minor for prostitution…

    There is a lot of hyperbolic vitriol in your post. Saying that Gates "has no qualms in killing children..." is quite a stretch. Using words like "Big Pharma" to make working on vac…

    This is a brilliant article and shouldn't be dismissed so quickly. I think the framing is dead on.
