Aah, the infamous Parker Molloy. 😎 I believe the term "sanewashing" is accredited to you (or, you may have been the first to use it more widely 🙂).

Always a pleasure to be introduced to these erudite independent journalists, via Waj's Chai Talks. 👌🏼👏🏼

Engaging and informative discourse. Thankyou both. 🙂✊🏼💙

Waj, would you have a privacy lawyer on to talk about this a bit more? I wonder how the GFM didn't violate TOCs. Thanks. Needless to say, there are many questions about the racist POS' childhood. Remember-trump learned never to apologize as a child and to always take $$$$$$$.

NONE of this can be justified. At the same time, it's important to see things through that larger lens of how their most formative years shaped them into the adults they'd become. Some of us can break cycles. Others can't.

Thanks for making these substacks free.

Seems Meanness finds peace as a victim to its chosen inferior. Goes with my theory that Racism is just meanness. And the fear of one’s own inferiority.

The victim was an autistic 5 year old. Any 5 year old is still learning to keep their hands to themselves and not touch other people's belongings.

Right? I would have yelled at the kid initially too, but I can honestly say that using the n word would not have been a thought, would not have occurred to me. That doesn’t make me any kind of saint, it makes me a more or less decent person. There is NO justification for any wh*te person using the n word, let alone repeatedly, let alone against a CHILD!

A lot of pearl-clutching and they would've wanted his head under a guillotine. Hypocrites that they are.

If that little boy had called her a Bitch wouldn’t she be clutching her pearls? All frail sensitivity? Either way she’s the victim of a 5 year old disabled child. Let that superior whiteness really sink in.

With few exceptions, Democrats have shown zero courage, zero leadership, zero fight.

They seem unable to comprehend the reality that 1) Republicans might very well retain the House in 2026, given the absence of any vision, plan or communication by Democratic leadership, 2) Democrats will be blamed, even if Trump's policies begin to harm his voters...for failing to even try to stop it, 3) attacking David Hogg, while protecting ancient "doorstops" and moving to the right on every issue...is guaranteed to offend every voting block, 4) refusing to seriously address the concerns of young men will drive them into MAGA arms for a generation, and 5) having no future plan for governing in 2026, other than to "not be MAGA" will not turn out the base or win back flip voters.

When you say MAGA is all about greed and racism, you forgot to add misogyny!

Well, not in this case. That would be called misandry.

I think they’re moving these “refugee privileged” whites are being moved out of the country before the genocide of the native population they and Musk want to “clear” out of their, just like in Gaza

Is there a GoFundMe for that little boy? I can't imagine asking for money for bullying a small child.
