Hey, remember when we found out that a bunch of anti-trans journalists were in a group chat or otherwise all hanging out online radicalizing each other with the same regurgitated propaganda and no one gave a shit, but now it turns out that this is just true in general of this class of people?

So basically, there was a Signal chat with tech folks and some Harpers Letter writers, and the Harpers folk were chased out when Andreessen realized they would not go along with censorship. But the tech guys stuck with Chris Rufo. www.semafor.com/article/04/2...
The breaking point came on July 5, 2021, when Foster and Williams, along with the never-Trump conservative David French and the liberal academic Jason Stanley, wrote a New York Times op-ed criticizing new laws against teaching “critical race theory.” “Even if this censorship is legal in the narrow context of public primary and secondary education, it is antithetical to educating students in the culture of American free expression,” they wrote. The conservatives had thought the Harper’s letter writers were their allies in an all-out ideological battle, and considered their position a betrayal. Andreessen “went really ballistic in a quite personal way at Thomas,” a participant recalled. The group ended after Andreessen “wrote something along the lines of ‘thank you everybody, I think it’s time to take a Signal break,’” another said. The meltdown of this liberal-tech alliance was, to Rufo, a healthy development. “A lot of these technologists hoped that the centrist path was a viable one, because it would permit them in theory to change the culture without having to expose themselves to the risk of becoming partisans,” he said. “By 2021, the smartest people in tech understood that these people were a dead end — so the group chats exploded and reformulated on more explicitly political lines.” Rufo had been there all along: “I looked at these chats as a good investment of my time to radicalize tech elites who I thought were the most likely and high-impact new coalition partners for the right.”

Karoline Leavitt says "this administration isn't afraid to face the media" then immediately cuts to this reporter, who thanks her for deporting people "because Uber drivers finally speak English again" & then asks what the Trump admin is going to do to those who "defy orders" about trans people.
Fascist reporter in an all-pink suit laughs about how much she hates immigrants with Sean Spicer and a man who looks like a meth dealer.
