As many people know, ghosting began as a dating term meaning abruptly cutting someone off without warning or explanation. It is not peculiar to dating either as there is professional ghosting too. I hope not to have ghosted people, as I know it can be done unconsciously. It is dispiriting when people don't get back 
Some conservatives think they've found a slick new way to keep straying African-American voters from returning to the Democratic fold: Attack the Biden administration's proposed ban on menthol cigarettes as a crackdown on African-American consumer "rights" and "freedom" — and an assault on Black "pride." It sounds far-fetched — isn't cigarette smoking a major public health

By Julia Kassem — Aug 30, 2024 | As was described in an earlier article, the Uncommitted Project was an exercise in ultimately garnering support for the Democratic party among constituents disillusioned by the genocide in Gaza. | With more than ever convergence between the Democratic and Republican establishment on domestic and international positions and policy, changes in the level of public opinion on Palestine, while irrelevant with the ruling class support of the Zionist entity and still a minority in the public opinion of Americans as a whole, serves as a barometer for how said ruling class sends its…

Unfortunately, the New York Times is easily the most important U.S. media outlet covering Palestine. So it's time for another up-to-date dissection of ongoing Times bias.
In the harsh sunlight, the asphalt of the avenue glistens as a discreet multi-story building stands tall in the Iraqi city of Erbil. Its facade is ambiguous, offering no clues as to whether it's a hotel, an office block, or an apartment building. | Its spacious interior provides a little more insight, but at the end of the stairway, an open door beckons. It appears to be an empty house, but on the living room floor lies a spread of mattresses, pillows, and blankets. | Before settling onto the floor, 24-year-old Alaa unzips a blue suitcase and pulls out a handful of documents and small photographs, remnants of…

Hundreds of thousands of Israelis protested this weekend to demand a ceasefire following the deaths of six more hostages in Gaza, but Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu continues to reject the terms of a deal that would remove Israeli troops from southern Gaza.

After nearly two decades of obstruction by the U.S. military, The New Yorker has obtained and published 10 photos of the aftermath of the 2005 Haditha massacre, when U.S. marines killed 24 Iraqi civilians in revenge for an IED bombing that killed a service member.

It's wild when you realize that nobody can actually articulate a reason why Israel should be supported that is both logically coherent and morally defensible. | Westerners grow up being indoctrinated with the understanding that this tiny country in the middle east is super duper important and needs to be supported and defended at all cost, but if you examine the reasons given for why this is so as an adult, you find that none of them really hold water. | "Israel is the only place where Jews can be safe!" | This is clearly false. A Jewish person in New York City is self-evidently much, much safer than a Jewish per…

To explain the dire plight confronting Ukraine, I will plagiarize James Carville's slogan from Clinton's 1992 Presidential Run — It is the training, stupid. As someone who trains instructors and average citizens on how to properly and safely use a firearm, I know that the best way to learn is by doing. But learning involves more than just acquiring knowledge, you must be able to apply that knowledge while under great stress. The same applies to military training. | I believe one of the major contributing factors to the dramatic increase in Ukrainian casualties is the lack of trained personnel. In shar…

We assess the current status of the BRICS currency and explain why de-dollarization is a reality.
