this is the existential fear
makes you wonder the extent to which the loser behavior of a lot of Democratic electeds is just downstream of the loser behavior of apparently a bunch of Democratic voters

!! Here’s a link to full video of the 60 Minutes segment that Bari Weiss killed last minute, via @jasonparis.bsky.social:

(It was uploaded to the Global TV app in Canada, seemingly by accident, and has now been taken down)

It looks like it's been scrubbed from every official 60 Minutes page now.

It's only a 30-second promo but here it is if you didn't get a chance to see it.

sunsetting section 230 gives the power to whoever has control of either the executive branch, the courts, or both the power to crush small web sites like this one and to dictate what is on larger ones like twitter

anyone who supports it deserves the consequences of it
Children are being exploited and abused because Big Tech consistently prioritizes profits over people.

Enough is enough. Time to sunset Section 230.

Reminding everyone for no particular reason that Section 230 is one of the last things standing between free speech online and Trump having control over everything you see and say on the internet

We're seeing this now. Concepts which had been rendered politically inert by their universal public affirmation, like democracy, human rights, anti-corruption, anti-racism, & basic decency, have polemical potential again as that consensus breaks down—they're available for use as partisan weapons.

Schmitt is onto something when he calls out 'universal' concepts like human rights or justice for being emptied of substantive content when they cease to be polemical—meaning oriented against a concrete political foe.

But that just means they need to be reappropriated by new emancipatory movements.

anyway if dems think I'm gonna forget this shit in 5 months, they're wrong. if they think I'm gonna forget it in 5 years, they're wrong. they have fully convinced me that purging the party of these inept losers in the senate is more important than retaking the senate in the next election cycle
