The inability to have unqualified appreciation for anything is the defining characteristic of the left, and I love it...it's great, I think things are complicated. But I don't have unqualified appreciation for that instinct...I think it can also be harmful.

This is why I still think that the internet, not the issues, are the root cause of this culture war. People (including journalists…who are people) imagine the loudest, angriest positions as default positions because those are the ones that get eyeballs in an ultra-competitive attention economy.
“Supporters of inclusion view those who hesitate or have questions as bigots.” that’s not fucking true. we keep explaining how transition and athletics works BECAUSE we believe people who don’t know will mostly come around once they do know! if we thought they were all bigots we wouldn’t try!!
NYT actually published this sentence, which asks us to take baseless moral panic bullshit seriously as a reasonable position.
Supporters of the Holocaust considered Jews to be subhuman saboteurs of German society, too. So fucking what??

As the U.S. revokes hundreds of visas to suppress activism, Kaveh Akbar writes beautifully and the pervasive fear--and the need to protect the rights of the most vulnerable. www.thenation.com/article/acti...

What’s your “I am Spartacus” move to protect the more vulnerable, the targeted, the invisibled, the next-on-the-list?

Under the U.S Constitution, the President is very explicitly not a king. The President's wishes and decrees do not magically become law.
