    The alleged shooter was an Australian. Fortunately, the New York Times has an incredibly informative article about Australia that doesn't gloss over the far right at all: https://www.nytimes.com/2019/01/08/opinion/australians-have-more-fun.html?action=click&module=Opinion&pgtype=Homepage …

        Andrew Bolt, Piers Akerman & Gerard Henderson as commentators have worked really hard to gin up anti-muslim hatred & Peter Dutton has done the same from the cabinet, they should hang their heads in shame

        "Wait, you mean Bari Weiss glossed over the violence of the far-right?!" asks this positively stunned Vancouver, WA, native as his local area continues to be roiled by Patriot Prayer members years after Bari also defended them in her column.

        How did you get to a point in your life that when faced with an act of evil your first instinct is to bring up an inconsequential Bari Weiss piece?

        New York Times is a major paper, so if they present a whitewashed picture of a country, it's worth noting.

        Too right. Although I give 🇦🇺 a ton of credit for acknowledging its history full on AND absorbing an amazing number of heterogeneous immigrants in such a relative short time, it’s hard to miss all the MAKE AUSTRALIA GREAT AGAIN billboards & Australia First/One Nation literature.

        Mass shooting in New Zealand, and you point to a Bari Weiss piece? C’mon Jeet.
