I have reached the point of engaging with the wedding industrial complex that every time I have a bad thought about my body I glue another rhinestone onto my wedding outfit.

Ta-Nehisi Coates understands. Klein doesn't.
It's really that simple.

i love this part and i think it very much shows the difference in depth of thinking between someone like Klein, desperately fighting in the here-and-now and arguing to win a battle with compromise, versus Coates' position that he is a soldier in a long war.

It’s fine to say that violence is never the answer, but I can’t help but observe that for Charlie Kirk violence was always the answer, and it was the only answer he offered, and, because of the privilege that he refused to admit he had, he could enact it from a comfortable and respectable place.
