Unbelievably riveting!!! Thank you for this deep dive into Jeff Bezos world dominance business winner takes all mentality. Leaving in its wake destroyed businesses financial ruin destroyed dreams. When Amazon now takes half of owners profits then copies top selling items for Amazon named products, that’s wrong, that’s a nasty, that’s not right.
Decent reporting mixed with unjustified sane washing
3 days ago
I keep the Times’ podcast in the mix because I value a non-American — one, in theory, less polarized than most of our media here. There is often good reporting in these episodes, especially the investigative work. Today’s episode with Tom Newton Dunn about the Harris-Trump debate on September 10th was a reminder of The Times’ true colors. Dunn could not help but ‘sane wash’ Trump’s insanity — and had to be reminded by the host several times of the unhinged things Trump actually said underlying the “points” Dunn claimed Trump scored. This sort of thing is a disservice to listeners, who deserve to understand just how historically out-of-place that candidate is.
Pathetic

If I could rate them lower I would. What they did to the Ballerina Farm family is terrible. Just because you do not understand something different than what you grew up with does not mean you can try and humiliate them. I am not surprised however coming from the people that say they value “inclusion” while attacking anyone with whom they disagree.
Southgate
Jul 12
It’s interesting how both interviewer and the interviewee circumvent the issues of race and violence following the last major tournament. An occasion where I, and many people around the world thought Southgate showed immense integrity and grit, despite his countrymen’s flagrant racism and vulgarity. I think Southgate’s composure in some capacity quelled the anger I felt. This is evidenced by how he immediately ran onto the pitch after Saka’s devastating penalty, and embraced him, as a father would. He was protective and I felt that, as a black person. I cried, not from disappointment, but from fear for that young man, but seeing Southgate sprinting onto the pitch and shielding Saka, brought me consolation. That’s quality.
