that one is a few years too late. rampartd Sunday #2

They can never undo all of their sane-washing wolfie001 Sunday #23

"liberal new york times" rampartd Monday #40

Judith Miller barf wolfie001 Monday #48

oh NOW they say it Skittles Sunday #3

"They" aren't saying it. This is a Roxanne Gay Op-Ed. maxsolomon Monday #56

The NY Times encouraged and supported, actively, Trump, both in 2016 and in 2024. Fuck that "but her emails..." "old... NNadir Sunday #4

For ALL practical purposes, simply put DENVERPOPS Monday #51

Oh wow NOW a warning? mountain grammy Sunday #5

Since its an Opinion/Editorial by Roxanne Gay maxsolomon Monday #53

And yet, somehow, they couldn't endorse Harris. Grumpy Old Guy Sunday #6

I'm pretty sure NYT DID endorse VP Harris Seeking Serenity Sunday #8

False Shrek Sunday #13

It was the Washington Post that didn't endorse her radical noodle Sunday #14

I stand corrected. Grumpy Old Guy Sunday #30

And yet you did not correct the post that accused them of not endorsing Harris maxsolomon Monday #52

No, the Washington Post refused endorsements, whathehell Monday #49

Wtf?? WE'VE been saying the exact same B.See Sunday #7

Great piece by Contributing Opinion Writer Roxane Gay. Pinback Sunday #9

This piece makes a too-common, WRONG assumption about who "we" are. 22% of Americans is NOT who 78% of Americans are. ancianita Sunday #10

Thank you for that. If only we could convince more to vote. Hermit-The-Prog Sunday #18

YW. Just mapping it out helps. ancianita Sunday #21

Brilliant response - thank you! jmbar2 Sunday #24

Absolutely! ancianita Sunday #25

I really like your fighting spirit jmbar2 Sunday #26

Awwww, hell to the YEAH !!! Seinan Sensei Sunday #28

i love what you wrote but where are you getting the 22% number (and the 78% number)? nt orleans Sunday #32

Thanks. Sure. ancianita Sunday #33

got it! thank you! orleans Sunday #35

29% of US voting age population voted for Trump in 2024. SomewhereInTheMiddle Monday #42

Exactly. ancianita Monday #44

76,510,127 / 244,666,890 eligible-to-vote equals 31.3% of those eligible to vote voted for tRump nmmi Monday #47

If you want to use a university from Florida, run by Sasse/Fuchs, I'm not going to argue about eligible vote numbers. ancianita Monday #57

If you have any other source, I will gladly use that. nmmi Monday #73

Sure. I live in Florida and since covid, don't trust Florida's govt or RW universities. I use other sources. ancianita Monday #74

Sorry, but as I patiently pointed out, not everyone who is over 18 can legally vote - e.g. non-citizens. a lot of felons nmmi Monday #75

If you want the electorate population, you have to do the math as shown in my posts above. ancianita Monday #76

Uh, err, you forgot that many felons can't vote. And the undocumented population is a subset of non-citizens nmmi Monday #77

I think the "electorate" as the denominator... reACTIONary Monday #50

I do, too, since it's the bigger population that, divided into Trump votes, shows them as a percent of ancianita Monday #58

Sorry, but no Cosmocat Monday #43

Worth considering, so here goes. ancianita Monday #45

but 346,134,190 is not of voting age mahina Monday #81

No thanks mcar Sunday #12

Where were they in the last days before the election? brush Sunday #15

They had their heads buried in the sand sakabatou Sunday #16

Did you read the same NYT I did in the last days before the election? maxsolomon Monday #55

I watched NYT staffers on cable constantly bash Biden/Harris. brush Monday #61

I'm defending it because I don't believe its the malign actor that you do, maxsolomon Monday #62

Oh please. The NYT is ust about as complicit in not going after the 'weaving', white supremacist asshole that is tsrump. brush Monday #63

What am I supposed to subscribe to? The Daily Worker? maxsolomon Monday #68

Seems to me the NYT bashed Biden/Harris as much as you allege it declared trump unfit. brush Monday #70

The NYT has been an active participant in the propaganda network. Hermit-The-Prog Sunday #17

Exactly. ancianita Sunday #27

Dietrich Bonhoeffer said stupid prople are the most dangerous Beck23 Sunday #19

Yes, and Bonhoeffer knew why. ancianita Sunday #29

A NYT opinion column that nails it. MLWR Sunday #20

Too little, too late. Fuck the NYT. (nt) Paladin Sunday #22

IMO, Harris still had the best chance. Any other dem would have done much worse AlexSFCA Sunday #31

Agree. ancianita Sunday #36

Roxane Gay, a contributing Opinion writer, continues... Hekate Sunday #34

I wonder... kevinore Sunday #37

There were several excellent op-ed columns in yesterday's NYT bif Monday #59

That's the most important thing. maxsolomon Monday #60

I still subscribe to the NYTimes because they have some great writers and reporters (and the crossword and games), but LymphocyteLover Monday #65

Can you point at a single mainstream US newspaper whose priorities weren't "warped"? maxsolomon Monday #69

Actually our Detroit Free Press is pretty decent. bif Monday #71

In what way? maxsolomon Monday #78

Do you work for them? JustAnotherGen Monday #80

I don't work for them. Are you serious? maxsolomon Monday #82

I don't know. My local paper avoids partisan politics as much as they can. Seemed like the Philadelphia Enquirer LymphocyteLover Monday #83

OMG yes! The people most under-represented in the media are regular sane Democrats like us!!! LymphocyteLover Monday #64

I love the NYT's Sunday Edition bif Monday #66

Where were they JustAnotherGen Monday #67

Tell me you don't read the NYT without telling me you don't read the NYT. maxsolomon Monday #72

Ah - yeah i didn't and won't JustAnotherGen Monday #79
