Zionism is a progressive cause that suffers from its success. It transformed victims into sovereigns, now recast as privileged colonial occupiers. Isn't the very goal of "progress" in progressive to move away from victimhood

The moral position then for those who oppose it, is to allow those who wish to leave Gaza into countries that support the Palestinian people. Ireland and Spain come to mind, Qatar as well could take it thousands, they have the money.

Perhaps the example of Woody Allen at the top is more apt. The departure in style, theme, visual approach, and structural vision between early works like Sleeper or Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Sex and later films such as Matc

Indeed, but downplaying the strategic threat to Taiwan as a "short-term" potential impact is not a credible position in the long term. It is prudent, possibly even critical, to have foundries on US shores, and the US will have to

It's hard to argue that Slack is significantly better; it got increasingly messy over time. It's not that teams are better; the alternative isn't.
