Black women have every right to be furious. The irresponsible choices of white voters has for many of us, taken our livelihood with consequences for our homes, the education of our children, our ability to care for parents.
It’s unconscionable.

I think it’s worth noting this piece generated the most unsubscribes I’ve seen in a while, and the newsletter version had the lowest open rate in many months. These horrors persist in part because too many people go to great pains to avoid them.

MSNBC worries about the perception that they’re not fair to R’s while Fox eats an $800m libel settlement to preserve its ability to lie about Ds.
That’s the asymmetry that gives illiberalism a structural advantage.

I did this identical post on twitter, threads & Bluesky. Only Zuckerberg’s threads warned me not to use such a mean word to describe Trump.

Trump is stupid.
