Same here. If you support fascism and enjoy the suffering of others, you can fuck way off.
The pathetic Trump/Musk/Vance administration is an abomination and embarrassment in every conceivable way. If you even dream of admiring them, don't read our mag or send us your work. "So much for the tolerant left" you say? That was never us, bub. We're vengeful poets, and we don't tolerate shit.

“Don’t feed the trolls” also extends to bad opinion pieces in papers of record.

They run them bc people react to them the most.

If we stop linking to bad columns and instead post thinkers we find valuable (& generate convo around it), incentives change.

It’s not easy and takes constant practice!
