“I recall a situation that happened a couple years ago when Bari sided against the libs, but don’t remember what it was. Maybe she’s officially red-pilled now.”
————-
IIRC, that previous incident involved her resignation from the New York Times because of her belief that the atmosphere among all of her fellow employees, including management, was poisoned by the censorship of Twitter. One thing that she has always been is a promoter of free speech. To her credit, though she has been very liberal, she has oftentimes criticized the excesses of the far left. Is she red pilled at this point? That is still an open question, but I know a number of people who have definitely had their eyes opened by not only what happened on October 7 in Israel, but because of the reaction on campuses and in the media worldwide since then.

As I have said in other posts on this thread, I believe that we should not gloat to people like this that we were correct but, instead, we should welcome them. We are losing the cultural wars, and need every ally that we can get - our future, and that of our children and grandchildren depends upon winning the culture wars, and restoring this nation to what it was many decades ago. Someone like her has a unique ability that none of us have to persuade people that think like she used to, to wake them up to the dangers posed by the far left, including the DEI agenda.

Absolutely! Like Roseanne Barr. Whatever else she is, she was a rabid lib for most of her life. When she saw the light, she “converted”, and has mentioned how shocked she was when she was embraced by the right. (I’ve heard that she has had a conversion to Christianity (gave her life to Jesus), too, but am not sure about that.)
