does anyone read op/ed sections anymore? When I was younger it seemed like a lot of the most interesting opinions were on the op-ed pages of newspapers. You had these really interesting opinion columnists like George Will, Thomas Friedman, and others that wrote very interesting columns back in the day (when I was a kid). but today it seems the op-ed pages are for ghosts and people over 70 years old. all the interesting opinion writers have moved to creating their own newsletter, writing on X, etc. I still read the "print" edition of the Wall Street Journal every day - cover to cover ... with…

A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com.
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.
About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
