"Does Counter Strike make people school shooters? Are horror films turning us into satanists? Did The Traitors do Reform?" Will this ridicolous type of cultural criticism ever end?

Say it again, and again, and again. They are not "illegal immigrants".

-seeking asylum is legal and has been since 1951.

This legally trumps all arguments of “but they arrived by illegal means”. That’s just a fact. That’s why you don’t see asylum seekers arrested & charged. Our MSM must do better.
Silencing the drumbeat again: seeking asylum is legal
Hundreds protested in Ashington against so-called "illegal immigrants" - though seeking asylum has been legal since 1951

"Cleaning up" is a trope. It's like calling people rats or octopuses. Absolutely no place for it in public life; this MP should be losing the whip.

Musk has adjusted Grok’s algorithm so it’s now a neo-Nazi.

Pretty cool that almost every progressive commentator, elected official and organization still uses Musk’s X algorithm to communicate with the public! Good job guys.
