“Went viral” is an old stock phrase in journalism that really does not capture the dynamic of how X dot Com has been tuned to give people like the one specific legislator here the power to intentionally cause this kind of outcome
Texas A&M University will not reinstate a lecturer who was fired after a video of her teaching about gender identity in a children’s literature class went viral, despite a faculty appeals panel unanimously concluding that her dismissal was not justified.

surely the women's bathroom is a sacred space ive been told by conservatives
ICE agents illegally break into a woman's bathroom in a NY nutrition bar manufacturing plant. "Pull up your pants," says a male agent. The agents only had a warrant to review employer documents. They didn't have a warrant to search for, detain, or arrest anyone there.

Once when we wanted to show the ineffectual dithering of The Good Place Committee, we had one of them say, "There are rules, procedures. This is The Good Place -- we can't just *do stuff.*" We almost didn't include it, because we thought it was a little on the nose.

I can *100% assure you* that if this report found that trans people & "wokeness" tanked the Harris campaign, the DNC would release it in a heartbeat
BREAKING: The Democratic National Committee will NOT release its long-awaited autopsy on Trump's 2024 win. The report is completed but Dem leaders decided it could distract from their winning streak, so it will remain secret. Not good.

He's willing to stake out bold positions on other issues.

Like most politicians, he tells us what he believes. He's chosen to concede on transmisogynistic policy because he is a transmisogynist, in his heart.

He cares about "young men's anxieties" because he shares them.
Ahh so he’s just openly admitting his absolutely abysmal and transphobic views on trans people in sports are just fully made without listening to any actual facts on the issues, just shit he’s made up based on fear mongering. Cool cool. But did you know he’s the best on trans? He said so!

What makes this extra funny is that the only reason I go back to Twitter is international journalists, which means that they're just mad American pundits and journos have bailed
Elon's little serfs are quite literally begging journalists to come back because every publicly available source of data shows people have fled the platform and young people won't use it.

They are literally begging regular people to come back. Don't do it! It is a website by and for actual Nazis!

Today, Benjamin Netanyahu said it is so 'antisemitic' that Australia called for a Palestinian state that it inspired the mass shooting.

In case you were wondering who is trying to capitalize politically off of atrocity.

A mass shooting in Australia and a stabbing in America. Everything is topsy-turvy. Nothing makes any sense. Oh, thank God, there was also a mass shooting in America.
