Pre-Trump, I had a paid online subscription to Guardian for a time, because it was so well written and informative.

After 2016, however, they seemed to adopt a firm anti-MAGA stance which I found to be biased and off-putting. Their highly critical stance against Israel after the Hamas attacks of October 2023 was the last straw.

Then, they withdrew from the X platform and now they might as well not exist, as far as I'm concerned. I think that was a mistake, given their significant following on X, but I guess they felt they don't need it.

Why wouldn't they be critical of Israel? They killed over 200 children in one day just last week.

Their stance regarding Israel and Palestine is well within the mainstream in Europe, including the UK.

How has the NY Times reported this?

Funny, I started following the Guardian around then as it was the only paper that had a common sense takes on Israel instead of the highly compromised ones like the NY Times.
