“Don’t feed the trolls” also extends to bad opinion pieces in papers of record.
They run them bc people react to them the most.
If we stop linking to bad columns and instead post thinkers we find valuable (& generate convo around it), incentives change.
It’s not easy and takes constant practice!

Texas voted for mass deportation. Texas gets what they voted for. However, can we take bets that the large companies who have 45s ear and are utilizing undocumented workers will get a free pass?

Some people ask which of the people that Trump nominated is the most dangerous, but it seems to me that the most dangerous aspect of the situation is that Trump is trying to make the Senate submit to patently absurd nominees to establish the precedent that they don’t meaningfully check his power.
