  1.  @frozzytango9927  Elif Shafak certainly does not.

  2.  Carl Yelland  The Guardian has no far left. It has pro- and anti-Blair Labourites.

  4.  @chadwickgoddard3090  I have no followed her work, so I don't know. She did not say those things here. (Is she just playing nice, for this crowd? As I admit, I don't know. Her interventions here are excellent.)

  5. Macron was a disaster, by the way. And it was utterly obvious he would be.

  6. Letter to a Young Muslim, by Tariq Ali (excerpt) "The people of Indo-China suffered more than any Muslim country at the hands of the US government. They were bombed for 15 whole years and lost millions of their people. Did they even think of bombing America? Nor did the Cubans or the Chileans or the Brazilians. The last two fought against the US-imposed military regimes at home and finally triumphed."

  7. Ockrent? She is a known neoliberal cold warrior, on (what is considered) the right in the French context. Yes, a life-long manipulator.

  8. Ockrent is a known neoliberal globalist and has never failed to be horrible, on any platform where I've seen her. Elif Shafak is not of the same stripe at all. Don't you listen to women on an individual basis? And here I thought Western Values were all about respecting The Individual!

  10. D'Sousa? Thank you for letting us know where these idiot talking points came from. He pled guilty to breaking campaign contribution laws, which has got to be the stupidest move possible. Of course he was pardoned by that other stable genius, Donald J. Trump. No, Fascists and Nazis are not "leftists." But keep it up. Let everyone know the extent of your knowledge base straight away.

  11. Read Tariq Ali's Letter to a Young Muslim, then tell me what Ali is.

  12.  @pauldawson6138  Read ANY of Plato's early dialogues, but especially the Gorgias, and wake . . . um. Never mind. This isn't going to happen. I'll just move where people do read it. There is no other answer.

  13. Could not be more wrong, of course.
