There is no quiet part. Germany has legislated the IHRA working definition of antisemitism which includes things, like some kinds of pro-palestinian speech, that are not antisemitic according to other definitions of antisemitism such as the one in the Jerusalem Declaration.
Profitable? Why is that a consideration?
He couldn't last a blackout from major media for a day because his RATINGS would drop. It's Trump. Without TV he's nothing.
This is oddly rhythmical/musical.
But what will the Harry Potter lady say? She's terrified of trans people you know.

Je suis d'accord avec le sentiment qu'on ne peut pas juste densifier sans créer des infrastructures, mais la solution n'est pas de ne pas densifier un secteur. La solution est de ...créer des infrastructures (tout en supposant qu'on parle des écoles, des garderies, des parcs, des cliniques etc)
The word "for" does a lot of heavy lifting in there.
The way it's worded, it makes it sound that anyone opposed to their POV is one of "terrorism advocates, genocide deniers, holocaust trivializers etc." I'm hoping it's just unfortunate wording.
Crime prevention does indeed start with social programs. But it doesn't end there. I'm all for defunding the police and I do agree that in the US police is really out of hand, but let's not be naive here. Social programs aren't going to address organized crime, or crimes of passion, crimes of immaturity (tenagers are both immature hormone soups and capable of causing harm) or political extremism. Antisocial behaviours can appear even in the socialistest of the welfarest of the welfare states.
Not to mention that cops have at the very least also the role of maintaining order, which is different from preventing crime. Think traffic cops, or rowdy crowd marshalling, or stopping disorderly conduct in public, or (extreme example) breaking up the mob that wants to lynch the alleged pedophile, to make sure he gets due process.
I'm all for a profound overhaul of policing, and for deep changes to what first responders are called for what emergency, but, honestly there exist functions for which police is useful.

A Reuters photographer snapped a picture of Trudeau later carrying a House of Commons chair out of the West Block chamber as he winds down his time in government. Under parliamentary rules, an outgoing MP can purchase a replica of their chair in the chamber.
Updated photo to remove the name of the company so I am not even inadvertently advertising them.
We are fast approaching a point where is no way to preserve the kinds of democratic, liberal, tolerant, multicultural, humanistic and socially just standards that define our standards of what's good in Western civilization than to form a closer European Union.
The European far right, from Meloni to the AfD and the RN in France is poised to establish a MEGA hellscape in the next election cycle. Only a liberal social democratic revolution, basically, can stop this.
An EU with common eurobonds, with a common nuclear capable Union Army, with the French UNSC permanent position becoming a European one, with common European taxation of wealth to reduce inequality and a common European welfare state. We should also establish universal jurisdiction for human rights abuses and put some teeth behind it.
We have already taken what is good from the American federalist tradition, and we have built new ones. We should forge a closer union while avoiding American mistakes like the imperial presidency, gerrymandering, and the influence of money in politics.
The MEGA fascists are like American Tories during the American Revolution: they serve the interests of foreign despots and pirates (to reference Jefferson): MAGA USA and Putinist Russia, peddling nothing but resentment politics that will solve none of our problems.
I agree that the title is too stretched out and I wholeheartedly agree with the rest of your comment.
