I just need to read about one company that says, "Don't be an idiot, they wrote that post on their own time and it's not even a lie." Just one company that will show the most fleeting glimmer of spine.

Beyond everything else that everyone is saying about this, I also want to point out that Landau is someone who was just like dozens of other elite conservative lawyers before the Trump era. Harvard Law School, clerked at SCOTUS, worked for BigLaw, rose to lead the firm's appellate practice, etc.
US Deputy Secretary of State Christopher Landau expressed regret on Sunday over the recent detention of hundreds of South Korean workers in Georgia and said those who returned home will face no disadvantage when re-entering the US

I shouldn't be shocked, but I'm still always brought up short to realize how many people think "civility" means "white people speaking in relatively calm voices" no matter what vile shit they say.

This gets to something that as a former stand-up I recognized but couldn’t name. A 31 year old professional content creator baiting 19 year old amateurs into the format of his choice isn’t debate, it’s crowd work. It’s debate-shaped crowd work farmed for content.
One thing that I think some not-youngs forget (and is different from 20 years ago) is that Kirk used his ‘debates’ to generate video that could go viral and, to use an old phrase, catapult the propaganda. His debates weren’t in any way, shape, or form educational.
When Charlie Kirk, who put together lists of professors he didn't like so people could target & harass them, used the phrase "free speech", he used it in the same way creationists use "teach the controversy." For Kirk, it was just another way to bludgeon the left and also to promote his propaganda.

I have been saying this forever, and people always freak out when I do, but:
We need a new governing document. And we need to pull an Articles of Confederation -> Constitution 1.0 and ignore the amendment procedures listed in the Constitution to get there.

this is the output of a profession that believes that adhesion to raw technicality is the height of reasoned analysis

It’s funny when people fail to understand what they’ve written and then blame other people. It’s a problem of writing comprehension, not reading comprehension.
It's nice to see, in the replies, that there are people on this site whose reading comprehension is as bad as the trolls at X. If you read this piece and you think it's somehow apologizing for Elon or running cover for him, I do not know what to tell you

Bad people have a way of collecting influential friends who will always give them the benefit of the doubt — even when there is absolutely no doubt whatsoever
In this case he's my colleague and so I have (I think) a reasonable sense of him.

You're going to hear a lot about Altadena, a beautiful, eccentric, really special community that suffered massive losses. If you haven't had a chance to visit, help them rebuild when it's time by coming, supporting local businesses and donating; they don't have the resources some other areas do.

I am so impressed with all these people who have done such intensive analysis of this LA fire event and know so quickly exactly what could have been done to prevent the tragedy — and are willing to share that wisdom online. And with such confidence in their conclusions! Great work, super.
