@mkieval@magi_jay Hi Michael! I'm Chris. I'm not "them." I have no desire to sound peeved either. I'm trying to engage constructively, and hoping Magdi can make her argument more persuasive.
@magi_jay The threading seems to have hidden my reply, but once again I was complimenting you. Asking for clarity, as a journalist, is never a reason for shame.
@magi_jay I "invoked" your moral radar to say I think it's *strong* -- I was complimenting you! I know that's rare on Twitter these days ...
Let's turn the temperature down a notch?
I was also seconding a suggested solution: please provide examples of the two uses of AIPAC you mean.
@joshuapbrink@magi_jay This. Magdi, I've followed you for years, and always thought you had a strong moral radar & journalistic sense. Use it here, please. Unpick your own assumptions.
The one thing giving me hope is remembering that it felt like this in 2020 and then a week later I regretted trusting the website where all of the most depressed and anxious people share their feelings.
Data is going to be all over the place during this hour. Lots of people jumping to conclusions with little information.
Really good hour to go for a walk and breathe.
Be advised that this entire hellsite will become a rancid cesspool of lies and disinformation tonight and through the next several days. It was purchased and restructured for this precise purpose. Expect nothing less than a projectile vomiting of hype, falsehoods and petulant rage. And, of course, keep moving forward and toward the light. We can do this.
