" en continuant ces entretiens fleuves de fin d’année, Ignacio Ramonet, aussi auteur de la biographie définitive de Fidel Castro coécrite avec le lider maximo, semble n’avoir jamais vraiment résolu la profonde contradiction entre son engagement pour un journalisme libre, engagé pour la démocratie et contre les «abus de pouvoir» et son soutien jusqu’au-boutiste Š un régime dictatorial."

I have been made aware of a #Grokepedia entry about a relative of mine. The text is elaborate and sounds ok, except for some repetitions. Knowing a few things about my relative, I can attest that the Grokepedia entry contains numerous errors and some contradiction already in the first half. It is so long that I couldn't read the second half.
To wit, it is inadvisable to rely on Grok…

It's not a contradiction to be opposed to the Online Safety Act, and to also think that this is Clown World nonsense

Politico's print paper was always something of a contradiction for an outlet that set out to prove that political journalism could thrive in the digital world. As the digital reach grew, the paper became less important, leading to the decision to end the print edition. Still, I am sad to see it go

I’ve lost a lot of respect for Andrewism after his recent upload. It feels disconnected from the reality of working-class life and from anarcho-syndicalism as it actually exists.
This response is a worthwhile read. It doesn’t romanticize work or the working class, but it doesn’t drift into abstract alternatives either. It sits with the fact that we don’t want to be working class, but we are, and that contradiction isn’t something you escape with theory.
I strongly relate to what’…

The Gospel According to ICE: How Christian Nationalists Betray The Faith They Claim to Follow | Tim Hjersted
There’s a profound contradiction at the heart of contemporary American Christianity: the disconnect between claimed allegiance to Jesus and actual allegiance to state power.
