It's amazing that we're proceeding full steam ahead with AI research. We learned nothing from the "Terminator" and "Battlestar Galactica" franchises. Then again.... do we need AI to destroy ourselves? I quote "Terminator: Dark Fate" below. @alternet.org www.alternet.org/ai-trump/

To Double Roasted Eli Roth has a biographical perspective in terms of his Jewish background. I say this as a Jew who criticizes the Netanyahu administration in the same article where I praise Roth's performance. www.salon.com/2019/05/19/i...
The Romney/Carville nods weren't random — both are centrist leaders in their parties, which tracks with Roth. I wrote about Romney's politics in 2021: salon.com/2021/05/23/a-tale-of-two-romneys-mitt-romneys-resistance-to-trump-comes-straight-from-his-father Review: alternet.org/ice-cream-man.

I supported Obama in 2008, and still believe America is better off because he won that election. At the same time, I wish the Republican Party hadn't evolved away from the principles embodied by McCain's campaign that year. In that respect, we're much worse off. www.salon.com/2019/08/19/b...
In 1864, a Republican and Democrat ran for president on the same ticket. In 2008, it almost happened again. Today, the very notion is ludicrous — and that speaks volumes.
The political conditions in early 21st century America are disturbingly similar to those that existed during the Civil War.

I support many of Bernie Sanders' ideas. When he speaks about Israel, I also identify with him as a Jew. Liberal Jews deplore Israel's human rights violations. To many critics of Israel, though, it's never enough. That is anti-Semitism. goodmenproject.com/featured-con...

"South Park" sums up my views on (a) Israel and (b) anti-Semitism. You can criticize Israel without being anti-Semitic. Indeed, Israel MUST be criticized. But when you blame all Jews or all Israelis for the Israeli government, you're an anti-Semite. democracyatwork.substack.com/p/south-park...
