I will not back down.
Trump is now calling for the arrest of elected representatives checking his power.
What else is left on the path to full-blown authoritarianism?

You can condemn murder and political violence without whitewashing Charlie Kirk's shameful history of hate, racism, white nationalism and promotion of dangerous conspiracies that radicalized Trump supporters to violence.
You can do both.

It’s not simply important to denounce political violence because it looks bad not to. It’s the right thing to do on the merits. Even more specifically to this moment it’s important because the forces of fascism are inherently better at political violence than the forces of civic democracy.

If I have any credibility with you from 20 years of reporting on rightwing & fascist movements, please listen when I beg you not to celebrate Charlie Kirk getting shot. Leave aside morality: this isn’t a match in dry grass, it’s a torch. We do not want what this could ignite & we would not win.

My extremely diverse Chicago neighborhood is DEAD QUIET today, a beautiful afternoon when everyone should be outside enjoying summer's transition to fall. Wow, great job, everyone who voted for bigotry and fear! You've completely eliminated the vibrancy of human society!

"Blueskyism" helped make The Onion one of the largest newspapers in the world in less than a year. If we had spent all of our time on Twitter, we'd be poorer, dumber and terminally ill with internet poisoning. He's just angry he's wasting away over there in a nazi agnostic lane that doesn't exist.

I rarely go to Twitter and when I do I make sure to keep it quick.
Part of the reason is that the place is an open sewer and I don’t miss the stench at all.
But another part is that I invariably see someone I know who’s still posting there and just lose a lot of respect for them.
