The narrative that anti-vaxxers or QAnon weirdos will come back from the brink if we're nice enough to them isn't tenable morally and doesn't hold up empirically. Ostracizing people whose beliefs harm others is a critical aspect of a functioning marketplace of ideas.

More than 400 Harvard Law School alumni have signed a letter calling on the school to condemn Trump’s attacks on lawyers and law firms.
“We believe [HLS] as an institution must raise its voice in support of these principles and in denouncing the Executive Orders.”

"It is plain to us, as it would have been to our grandfather, that taking action to stay off an enemies list does not advance the rule of law as embodied in the Statement of Principles, it undercuts it and emboldens those who seek to dismantle it."

Volodymyr Zelensky's Oval Office visit ended early when Donald Trump and JD Vance began angrily yelling at him. Here's why women like Kamala Harris and Hillary Clinton are too emotional to be president.

Anyway, those are my thoughts. You can choose to dress in certain ways to elicit certain reactions (e.g., perform respectability), but real respect is about more meaningful actions. Important to not conflate how you choose to dress with how you judge others. Dress respectability is Victorian ethics.

Lastly, there's a difference between how you *choose* to dress versus how you *view others* based on attire. I think it's fine if you say you'd wear a suit if you were in Zelenskyy's position. However, I think it's stupid to say that he's disrespectful for not wearing a suit.

Just look at how we view hoodies. On Mark Zuckerberg, the hoodie is a symbol of whiz kid meritocracy breaking norms and developing the New Economy. On people like Trayvon Martin, the hoodie is sometimes seen as proof of criminality. Again, it's about the bodies beneath the clothes.

There has been a lot of chatter today about Zelenskyy's meeting with Trump, some regarding this moment when White House correspondent Brian Glenn asked if the Ukrainian president plans to wear a suit. I want to address idea in this thread. 🧵

Trump hate will usher in another liberal government in Canada and will also unify the EU. Some silver linings.

Sooooo, is the plan for Blue states to become Canada's 11th province? Or will each be absorbed into whichever one is directly north of them?
