A Dem lawmaker and her husband were killed by a guy for their political views and it’s already out of the news.

It's actually kinda wild how often these kinds of takes meet pushback, anyone can crack a history book and examine the strategies the civil rights organizers used and how different they are than what's being used today.

People who claim to hold the Civil Rights Movement in high esteem seem to conveniently ignore the years of organizing, disciplining, and coordinating that took place

Decentralized movements have a terrible record in the US of affecting positive change - results matter!

The keyword for protests needs to be pathos, otherwise we are just talking to ourselves again.

Nerd respectability politics is spending the first 30 years of my life trying to be “smart” about policy or art or business, then realizing that all I really wanted was to be a little weirdo playing nerdy make-believe games with other little weirdos

My unoriginal take is all smart and charismatic Dems should be on every right leaning bro podcast nonstop now. Not to recriminate but to calmly explain what is happening and offer the Dems as the smart alt. A lot of lost boys will be wondering what happened and we have a chance to reach them.

Weak and stupid
