@gruber yes, because it highlights how dishonest Stefanik’s premise was. Magill’s answer failed to do that, but so does a flat “yes.”

You chide Magill for not condemning an imaginary genocide while Stefanik actively supports an actual and ongoing genocide. Stefanik conflates any support for Palestine with antisemitism and votes to send Israel weapons which are used to bomb hospitals. You see Magill’s fecklessness as the problem that needs calling out, here?

@gruber @glennf @drdrang here’s a much better question: why was Stefanik asking Magill about genocide when that’s not what “intifada” means?

This patently offensive equivocation only makes sense in the context of an insular far-right worldview where Israel is viewed as inherently just. These republican elected officials are utterly tone-deaf and detached from the real world.

@carlyraebrian @daringfireball Bingo. Gruber is linking to tabloid-tier conservative ragebait now? The hell?

Everyone fires off a bad take now and then, but I was genuinely shocked to see him uncritically amplifying a source like this.

@daringfireball DDG is just barely passable as a Google Search alternative. For anything but the most basic searches, Google is noticeably better.

Kagi is amazing, but it's not like Apple can ask every iPhone owner to cough up $10/month just to make search work. If Apple actually wanted to give Google the boot and give their users a good default search experience... well, they'd need to acquire Kagi.
