Imagine if that stupid car commercial talking about an open relationship was flipped to the man agreeing ? Women's rights heads would explode.
I listened to a recent podcast where the lead story was reporting on an interview with Elon Musk. The reporter said he was wrong to associate immigration in Europe with rising crime. The very next story was on youth crime and a facility in Sweden for youth criminals. Nowhere in the story was it mentioned that a disproportionate number of these violent youth come from a migration background. It’s as if they left that out in order not to contradict their story on the Musk interview.

Since when has the economist become a sucker to angry blue haired nose-pierced anti-Israel liberal leftist ‘activists’? Small wonder you have lost your standing. Grow a backbone!
