Remnants and Rye
by Flip BarrientosSeason 1
The Weaponization of Antisemitism and the Cowards Behind the Curtain
What started out as a back-and-forth discussion on Zionism has now resulted in a smear campaign from someone I once called a friend. In response to my criticism and my attempt to have a real conversation with him about my thoughts, he has indirectly addressed me on other people's comments, calling me an antisemite and claiming I deny the rights of Israel and the Jews to exist, and has ignored me when asked to show where I have ever made such statements. In this episode I address these allegations and challenge my friend, who has refused to sit down with me in the past, to join me on an episode of Remnants and Rye to make his argument that I hate Jews. I am willing to bet that it never happens, but this shit must be addressed.My First Case in Citizen Journalism
I was recently in a situation in which I believe my constitutional rights were being violated. Having just graduated from Northwest Vista College with a degree in journalism, with my most recent studies focused on constitutional law, and having been a victim of circumstances that led me to become a journalist in the first place, I decided to take this matter into my own hands. In this episode I explain what happened, as I remember it and am investigating, and I'm getting ready to deliver the paperwork to the Runnels County Sheriff's Department, documenting this case for the record.
