Recently, I came across an article in the Madison Federalist critiquing Marxism. I engaged with it, hoping for an informed discussion on Marxist concepts, but I was met with disappointment. The author, Aiden Wirth, claimed they “became interested in Marxist thought through TikTok videos” and heavily relied on quotes from various Catholic Popes, without actually quoting Karl Marx or any Marxist work.

Once upon a time, there was a collective belief in empathy in the United States. Compassion was a virtue and a widely accepted one at that. If someone was in danger, you helped them, or at least felt bad for them. Many people would have stepped in if they saw wrongdoing because harm demanded a response. That instinct — to intervene, protect and care — has always been treated as a social good, a marker of shared humanity.

Scroll through Instagram or TikTok long enough and you’ll see it: grainy mirror selfies, Snapchat captions, awkward outfits and timestamps filled with 2016. Logically, the photos aren’t impressive. They’re blurry, poorly cropped and unapologetically casual. And yet, people keep reposting them, over and over again — not only because everyone else is doing it, but because of what it means.

Zohran Mamdani beat out former Gov. Andrew Cuomo in his campaign for mayor of New York City with purpose and precision. His campaign highlighted three main goals: fast and free buses, free child care and freezing rent — ideas that would completely transform the life of an average New Yorker.

“The day the music died” are lyrics musician Don McLean dedicated to Buddy Holly and Ritchie Valens after a 1959 plane crash took their lives. Now, it can be applied to the fatal use of artificial intelligence in music.

Luigi Mangione should not be famous. And yet, in some corners of TikTok, his name has become a pop culture gag. It’s absurd, weird and exactly the kind of humor that Gen Z loves.

I was sitting at a table in the annex of Michelangelo’s Coffee House, spacing out over my assigned reading for English 245 and eavesdropping on a group of elderly men who gathered at a table next to mine for their weekly get-together. Through the window, a moving truck twisted its way into the small cul-de-sac behind the café, attempting to loop its tail around a vintage Ford Bronco before the driver eventually gave up and sent a boy in a cream-colored uniform to look for the owner of the obstacle.

ChatGPT is a demon. Yes, a demon. Now, when I call a Large Language Model demonic, I don’t mean to conjure up images of fallen angels and other biblical images. However, the way artificial intelligence and LLMs present themselves is inherently evil.

For decades, conservatives on and off college campuses around the country have ridiculed “ideological diversity.” They sneer at “liberal snowflakes,” complain about self-censorship and allege a lack of conservative representation to support their federal research cuts.

We need to let things be. Not every person we meet is meant to set off fireworks from the start. Not everything needs to click instantly or rush into intensity.

President Donald Trump and Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s claims on a potential link between Tylenol in pregnancy and a rise in autism diagnoses is dangerous and causes public distrust and damages trust in science.

The University of Indiana-Bloomington shut down their newspaper’s print product Oct. 15 and fired the paper’s advisor, Jim Rodenbush, after he opposed the university’s directive to print “nothing but information about homecoming — no other news at all” in its physical issues.

I recently read Safa Razvi’s recent Daily Cardinal op-ed, “Pro Palestine is not Anti-Israel. It is Pro-Human,” with genuine empathy for her compassion toward human suffering. But compassion alone cannot substitute for truth. Razvi’s column, and much of the rhetoric echoing across campus, ignores a basic reality: the pro-Israel community is, at its core, a pro-peace community. The same cannot be said of the activists leading the “pro-Palestine” movement at UW-Madison.

To the Editor:
(10/16/25 7:00am)
The current version of America is supposedly of the highest technological, intellectual prowess. In theory, this rendering of the country entails a highly intellectualized, seamlessly-functioning society which uplifts the access to knowledge and artistic enrichment of all its citizens. In reality, it denotes the rampant self-censorship of educators, vilification of children's novels and erasure of marginalized groups. This isn’t some behemoth of dystopian fiction, nor is it a hyperbolized depiction.
