Legacy Media is Frustrating
First and foremost, you should regard this as an opinion piece, and not one from any expertise background, because I’m far from one. I generally have no interest in politics, and I find it both boring and mind-numbing to think about and try to decipher (because deciphering is needed when it comes to politics... nothing is clear cut). But seeing the coverage of the recent attack on Israel and the aftermath in mainstream media, frustration and anger were building up inside and I had to let it out.

Exploring the Christian-Israel Relationship. Content Warning.
In the ever-evolving landscape of international relations, few issues are as contentious and emotionally charged as the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Within this never-ending debate, there exists a complex and often misunderstood relationship between Christians and the state of Israel. While many devout Christians do express strong support for Israel, it is crucial to question whether this support is blind or if it is rooted in a deeper theological and historical context.

Should the Public Trust Approval Voting?
This article was originally posted on The Washington Socialist. The American voting system has traditionally been first-past-the-post (i.e., the first candidate that meets a certain threshold wins). This system has disincentivized political alternatives. Votes for less-popular candidates tend to be viewed as wasted (see the “spoiler effect”), and so many voters choose the more popular party that is closest to their preferences, ultimately narrowing the political window to two options — in our case, red and blue — which ultimately hurts the more leftist candidates our movement tends to support.
