Crockett: "I'm gonna honor someone who decided they were going to proclaim I was involved in the 'great white replacement'? Yeah, I'm not honoring that ... it's unfortunate more of my colleagues even on my side couldn't see the amount of harm this man was attempting to inflict upon our communities"

Incidentally, I find it entirely unsurprising that an NYT dude brain like Klein would ignore the actual feminized contemporary history of the anti-vaxx movement and pretend it all started with COVID.
I refuse to listen to Ezra Klein but co-sign.

MAHA is a best understood outgrowth of a century-old New Age movement that overlapped with but did not encompass the modern anti-vaxx movement (which largely recruited from alt prenatal/children's health stuff, prior to COVID)
MAHA wasn’t a response to COVID and any journalist who doesn’t understand that it *exploited COVID* intentionally, deliberately from day one should pack it in bc they’re a dupe.

Cover people who want to improve nutrition if that’s what you want to talk about.

I think Canada should set up wall-to-wall windmills along the US/Canadian border. No reason it would just be fun.

I haven’t heard the entire speech but this part: “the U.S. is determined to monetize its hegemony,” will likely go down in history as a brave & verifiably true expression of what amounts to a protection racket, something no other world leader has been willing to say.

In South Korea and many other democracies, a political gender war is intensifying among Gen Z voters, with young men voting heavily for right-wing parties and young women leaning left — a departure from the days when both genders tended to vote mainly for progressives.
