Neither am I. But if you can stomach the main storyline, which is still better than any other stars wars story, andor is some of the best television ever made about governance, authoritarianism and resistance.

I hate you. :(

Your response to someone advocating nonviolent action against genocide is to tell them to cry harder.

Just because you like to think you are progressive or thoughtful or wonderful doesn’t mean you actually are.

And if you want someone to engage with you, you have to show you are with engaging with

Him and ossof are very very good political talents. I’m a bit jealous speaking from NY.

this is jeremy johnson right? head mod of r neoliberal. this is least surprising take coming from him. iirc he regularly defended the settlements on that sub, and tried to jump on the Ta Nehishi hate train bandwagon before it went nowhere.

he so badly wants enough clout to be the next will stancil

I think failing to would cause an actual revolt in the party. His leadership is kinda centered on never putting his members in a tough spot, and him refusing to endorse will make this an unbelievably annoying issue for senate dems to deal with.

i think a lot of itcomes down to how men understand masculinity today

men dont want to to be associated w/anything that conflicts wtheir masculinity. the idea that MtF ppl exist is an ANATHEMA to them

the fear of being seen as gay, and i really do think its a fear, drives a lot of the behavior

Genuine question, What position would lander gun for in a Mamdani admin? He was comptroller and anything short of deputy would probably feel like a downgrade no?

With the primary challenge it does feel like he’s leveraging the increased name recognition and good will he got from the election cycle

I think Mamdani win is more significant than a lot of rightleaners are giving credit for ( though less than his ardent supporters). He’s first person I’ve seen to actually activate checked out voters for dems since Obama. Every other election Tuesday night generally felt like an anti trump vote.

when the bulwark had him on to "explain" why october 7th happened, i learned how deep the brain rot over i/p goes. man is insane and tim miller helped legitimize him.

John Dickerson is the man who got me to start following and paying attention to political journalism. All the love and respect to him.

As someone who hates biopics as well I’m curious what your 1% are. They all seem like stylized puff pieces at best.

I have a warm spot for Gandhi but I can’t say that’s for any good reason.

@justdaniel
that your experience or imagination? Cuz while I agree not enough people are aware of the atrocities in Sudan, there’s no reason it’d be “inconvenient”. the charge is not mere ignorance but explicit hypocrisy. Just about any1 aware of both at such a protest would happily denounce both.
November 1, 2025 at 4:52 PM
Instead of yelling at the large # of ppl on bsky who criticize Israel but defend the RSF, why not use your podium and write a piece challenging this pro RSF narrative in the Atlantic

Because to me this does not seem like you doing a teachable moment, it’s just an old man looking for a dopamine hit.
November 1, 2025 at 4:42 PM
The amount of people who only post about atrocities in Sudan just so they can criticize those who protest atrocities in Gaza overlaps nearly 1:1 with the type of people who helped fuck up the USA Middle East foreign policy.
November 1, 2025 at 3:25 PM
Go to a protest about Gaza and ask them if they think the RSF actions also qualify as a genocide, I doubt you’ll get many people who disagree.

The most annoying part of the “but what about Sudan argument” is that no1 making it cares about Sudan, they just use it to dunk on people they don’t like
November 1, 2025 at 3:18 PM
Don’t you think part of the issue here is that the us govt is not directly aiding the RSF? Bidens admin even labeled it a genocide at the end of his term. I wish people protested the usas relationship to the UAE more, but our dedication to some dumbfuck accord apparently locks us into that alliance
