I’ve missed the Twitter experience. Over here, when I say hello, nobody responds with “what about black on black crime in Chicago?”

The full weight of western capitalism is about to laser focus on NYC. The robber barons failed to win and will panic. They will sabotage NYC because the system cannot allow Mamdani's term to be successful. They cannot allow people to believe things can be better. Your job now is to hold the line.

if you're going to a protest today I wish you luck. The only specific thing I will beg of you is this: don't use milk to wash out tear gas or mace. if you see a street medic with milk, yell at them until they throw it out. do not continue to spread lies about emergency medicine.

it's so funny that Greenblatt bent over backwards to these people and annihilated his organization's credibility with anyone left of center to get absolutely nothing from the right

i don't think good or bad person is a useful framing in situations like this. one's individual virtue is irrelevant to the narratives they propagate and their arguments should be evaluated on the merits. the article was bad and stupid and deserves to be made fun of
Ezra Klein is a good person, and his mental blindspot led him to extend a presumption of good faith towards a deceased monster instead of wrestling with the monster's actual politics.

These can both be true.
right, this is the basic problem. ezra is a guy with a lot of virtues who has been forced into a situation where none of his virtues are actual virtues.

i am biased because i'm a stranger whom ezra klein helped for no reason, to such an extent that i would not be here (anywhere) without him.

underneath all the doom and hideous stuff happening at the top of our country is a more inspiring story: regular Americans are not buying all this crap. and they're still willing to call the government out on it.

Remembering MN house speaker Melissa Hortman, her husband Mark and their beloved dog Gilbert. Murdered in June at their home by a rightwing Trump-voting evangelist, who also shot another MN lawmaker and his wife at THEIR home, 9 and 8 times, respectively (miraculously, they survived).

conservatives are increasingly going to deal with issues because they treat a man being murdered in broad daylight and a beloved character being recast with a black actor as the exact same level of severity. everything is a crisis and the only acceptable response is to "crush" the enemy

It astonishes me how parents are perfectly able to understand "the kid brought something home from school and now we're all sick" except for COVID for some reason
Exactly, the entire argument for this narrative is that kids rarely die of COVID. That’s true, but it wasn’t the justification for the policy. Teachers *do* die of COVID and kids *do* spread COVID.

Some studies find school closures were the most effective intervention for preventing cases!
