I like Bari Weiss in general. Not at the top of my list of political commentators or some such, but an OK person. Unfortunately, she's been clearly aware of this for years and it took until now for her to make a stand. Like, three months into her NYT job she should've done this - long enough to give it a fair shot, like she's done. But she waited years on this because... who the hell knows, the left's been crazier than ever since Trump and she's more then just "in the know" - why did it take until now?
I'll still read some of her stuff, or watch when she's interviewed probably just like before, but it's one of those "Glad you did it. Why did it take so fucking long, since you saw it from moment one? They literally used you to give themselves credibility.
Thanks for leaving though and slamming the door on the way out, maybe more people will notice." type of things.
