I find it deeply disturbing that Elon Musk has descended deeper into Great Replacement and J/6 conspiracy theories -- but journalists, progressive orgs and Democratic elected officials are still treating his platform as the default place to share and discuss news.

It's not that MAGA doesn't believe E. Jean Carroll — they just don't care that Trump abuses women
Trump verdict and new Vince McMahon allegations are a dark reminder that red state America cultivates rape culture

A lot of the coverage of the E. Jean Carroll trials assume that MAGA doesn't "believe" the allegation that Trump sexually assaulted her in the 90s.
Oh, they believe her. They just don't care. This is what feminists mean by the term "rape culture."

Reporting by Erin Reed this weekend revealed GOP legislators openly plotting a ban on all gender transition, with youth bans being only a step along the way to their eventual "endgame."
This comes as GOP increasingly chooses ideological outcomes, then massages the science to provide justifications.

I hope NOW people will realize Tom MacDonald is a piece of shit when he’s doing songs WITH BEN SHAPIRO (also why did i have to find out this is a thing)
Ben Shapiro: "I think rap is garbage" "rap is not music" ..
Ben is of the age where you don't suddenly acquire new musical tastes.. he's just on a slower arc of the right wing grift inevitability.
