"Criticizing me for randomly attacking the left because I think NYT business journos are representative of the left is peak twitter behavior 😡"
Skeet from @johnpfaff.bsky.social: "Multiple people have criticized me for not accepting that both "the ACA is better than what came before" and "we could have something a lot better" can be true. There's really no need to import the worst Twitter behaviors here." Skeet by @johnpfaff.bsky.social: I dunno--I saw a whole bunch of "stop bashing the ACA" posts when I logged on a moment ago. I saw a post by an NYT business journo bashing it and the Dems for passing it, maybe that set off a specific subset of the ppl I follow?

ah i apologize, he was CIVILLY arguing for the stoning of gay people, my mistake
Skeet from Sally Jenkins, author at The Atlantic, speaking of Charlie Kirk: One of the reasons I'm not familiar with his views is that I find they've been inaccurately or incompletely reported. When I do listen to him in full, he speaks with civility, and his full context has usually been lost. This disappoints me in my profession. That is what I'm saying.

The article from Jamie Harrison doesn't mention gender or trans people even once!

Again, "election modeling = mercury poisoning" is undefeated.
Skeet from Rachel Bitecofer @rachelbitecofer.bsky.social: We can’t win back the working class without consultants who don’t know it’s weird to use gender pronouns and have only ever lived in a cosmopolitan big city. That’s why I’m working so hard to shake up DC so we don’t look like a bunch of whiney losers. https://jaimeharrison.substack.com/p/an-open-letter-to-political-consultants?utm_medium=ios

hi everyone nice to meet you my name is certain issues
Skeet from Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias.bsky.social: I would define Blueskyism as the habit of looking at a Clinton / Biden / Harris voter who happens to be somewhat more moderate than the poster on certain issues and deciding that person should be loudly condemned as a fascist and shunned.

Modeling is mercury remains undefeated.

These people SAY it's wrong to cut people off for politics while cutting people off for politics. They're hypocrites in innumerable ways; why would this question be any different?

The absolute credulousness is mind boggling.
Bluesky post from Lakshya Jain: "Sharing this finding: Harris voters are the only group of people remotely likely to say it's OK to cut off friends/family for political views. I don't think they're *wrong* — again, it's a question of identity. But we're very different from most of America. https://www.theargumentmag.com/p/when-americans-bite-their-tongues" Includes a chart: "Do you think having opposing political views is ever an acceptable reason to cut off contact with a family member? Harris 2024 voters: 40% Yes 60% No Trump 2024 voters: 11% Yes 89% No 2024 Nonvoters: 18% Yes 82% No All Respondents: 25% Yes 75% No"

Bluesky post from Kevin "K.C." Sullivan @kcsullivan.bsky.social: Two transphobes will likely run against each other in the general. I guess we will have to use other criteria to make our decision. Though thankfully we also have the agency to disenfranchise ourselves.

"the trannies disagreeing with me arent real. theyre just foreign adversaries"
Skeet from @jerseyflight.bsky.social: "Geopolitical disinformation-agents know what they’re doing. They analyze the polarized structure of a society and adapt, disguise themselves accordingly. This means they take on the identity of minority groups and use them to sabotage democracy from the inside. They know what they’re doing!"

'we need to stop sexualizing chess as I proceed to negatively judge women by their appearance'
Reddit post: The whole "sexualizing" of the chess got old quickly. We need quality chess content, not some 5 and 6 (looks scale) female chess streamers showing off on camera. And Belenkaya is getting old fast and still acts like a 20 yo. This is just disgusting. I stopped watching their stuff shortly after covid quarantines were over, but youtube still shoves their channels into my face because I watch other related content.

And then a little farther up the timeline you have these two takes back to back.
By the way, the Epstein files are probably a giant fucking nothingburger that would just smear random people who happened to randomly be in the same room as him but honestly America loves nothing more than someone random they can hate because of something related to sex Don’t forget if you kill someone in a hate crime & get out of jail after serving your time you don’t have to tell your neighbors no matter the reason but if you’re 18 and sleep with your 17 year old girlfriend and her parents get mad you have to tell everyone you live near for the rest of your life.

Major surprise that a conservative lawyer is deliberately associating gay imagery with pedo behavior.
Lawyer Ken White, better known as Popehat, posts a gif with a rainbow background with text reading "Keep Calm and Be Fabulous" with the caption "Was is this flag". He is responding to an article with the title "FBI agents were told to 'flag' any Epstein records that mentioned Trump, Sen. Durbin says.
