If we transported 2025 Charlie Kirk back to 2012 he would have been widely considered the most vile and contemptible human being in politics, worse even than Limbaugh. That he wasn't in 2025 is a testament to how much of a permission structure for gutter racism the right has built.

It is weird that the assassination of essentially a celebrity influencer is a bigger deal than the shooting of two top state legislators + their spouses

"Chicago Pope" is like a 1994 SNL sketch. Airs at 12:20am, the only gag is that Chris Farley has a mustache and is doing a big accent. David Spade and the guest host (Joe Mantegna) keep breaking during it.

I mean very obviously Hegseth should resign, and if it were a Democratic administration this would be quickly be a consensus position.

The fight going on in the Democratic Party right now is not between hard left, left and moderate. It’s between those who want to fight and those who want to cave. And Team Fight stretches across all ideological aspects of the Party. Misread this at your own peril.

Look, folks, this is it. The entire ballgame. Either we're a Republic of laws & the Constitution, or we have a dictator. This is fascism, & the impeachment vote should be happening today. Every single university president in the country should be out, in front of microphones, condemning this.

I think this is absolutely true, but the question is “Why are they so angry?” America is prosperous, life is by any historical standard very good, and yet our politics is defined by rage and resentment. What is pouring so much anger into the public mind?

Echo chamber discourse is dumb. I left other site largely because everything I clicked on had a tidal wave of algorithmically-boosted braindead bluecheck posts to wade through before you could get to any good stuff.
