"No, I don't think the political framing is the most important here. These were young girls raped by prominent men and traded around like they were things. Are you not outraged by that? If not, what the fuck is wrong with you?"

The rational voter doesn't exist. How can someone be expected to vote rationally when they only vote a few times every decade? No one would pass a driving test if you could only have 1 lesson every two years.

Trump will never allow Zelensky the means to win in Ukraine because Trump cannot have Zelensky look more heroic than him.

Media: You can't call MAGA nazis. That's preposterous.
As soon as media actually starts digging into MAGA: Loads of self-proclaimed nazis.

Right wing UK discourse seems to have 2 contradictory messages:
The West is in decline because we no longer have a conservative religious narrative that shapes our culture and our lives.
And also:
Sharia Law is the worst.

Democrats prize intelligence; as long as they can say "I haven't had the wool pulled over MY eyes" their sense of honour and integrity is satisfied.
Republicans prize force; as long as they can say "At least I didn't pull MY punches" they're satisfied.
Guess who's winning.

If you reject Farage because "he's just like every other politician", then Farage has already won.

If certainty is what you want in politics, the centre offers none. That's why it's the centre. And it explains why disaffected leftists often swing all the way over to the far right.

No mention on the BBC that in invoking "evil-doers" who she appears to blame for his death, Charlie Kirk's wife amplifies an entirely fact-free conspiracy that Kirk's ideological opponents contrived to have him murdered. Expressing grief is fine; using it to stoke witch hunts should get a line or 2.

Ezra Klein is practising the politics of fear - fear of being criticised on the Right (which is almost everywhere now) for being insufficiently bipartisan.

I was on holiday in Greece in 2001 when the Twin Towers were attacked; I was in Greece last year when Trump was hit by a bullet; I'm in Greece now, watching the news about Charlie Kirk. If I ever holiday in the US, the Greek parliament will be quaking.

Throwing stuff at the Wall is such an under-rated political tactic. The Republicans have done it for years with evident success; Democrat consultants don't like it because....well, it doesn't give them much to be consulted about.

The fossil fuel companies knew they were causing pollution.
The cigarette companies knew their product caused cancer.
The social media companies know they are tearing society apart.
None would admit it.
In the same way, MAGA knows Trump is dumb, lazy and dishonest.

Putin will demand all of the territory he has taken: Trump will accede. Ukraine will get some BS guarantee of independence. Zelensky will rightly refuse, giving Trump the cop-out he needs to withdraw support for Ukraine. That's the whole plan.

More articles in Unherd about Sydney Sweeney than Trump's links with Epstein; no articles about Trump & Epstein in Quillette, but their latest podcast hates on trans people. What an ecosystem.

Armond White's review in National Review is absolutely nuts. And proves Rex right with every cringey sentence.
