This has as much basis in reality as "they're eating the cats. They're eating the dogs" but it will likely be just as breathlessly reported by credulous media.

It turns out it's easier to demand on Fox News that others commit war crimes than it is to admit ordering them personally.
If Admiral Bradley didn’t realize before that these cowards were setting him up to take the fall, he knows it now. Time to hire a good lawyer.

Which wars were won due to little-to-no rules of engagement, and which wars were lost due to tighter rules of engagement?
The Soviets had more permissive rules of engagement in Afghanistan than the US did, and killed more civilians. They still lost, and at greater cost to their country.

When I talk about crowdsourcing bigotry, this is what I mean. The OU case is an anti-trans campaign, full-stop. Confected outrage generated by a well-funded group of elites (far-right GOP) applying pressure to other elites (university admin).
For my newsletter, I wrote about that college essay scandal that's gone viral and what everyone is seeming to miss:
It's about ATTACKING TRANS PEOPLE!!!

That Viral Essay Scandal is (SURPRISE!) Actually About Trans People
A shoddy Oklahoma University essay went viral. Cis people think this is about conservatives whining for better grades. Trans people see a planned attack on a trans academic.

Yes. Just as telling everyone at your high school you're gay, have an STD, or have a father in prison, is bullying, even if you never directly hear it from the speaker. Certain social environments are like a medieval village: calling someone a witch has consequences; bullies count on it.
OK, internet, from a pretty awesome discussion with someone who has a different view than me, have a question. Is the following hypothetical bullying:
Someone on my block rants to his Facebook friends every Saturday about how he hates seeing the damn kike walking to synagogue
Please comment

Reminds me of a joke we would say in Yeshiva:
Person A: “As it says in the Tanakh…”
Person B: “The Tanakh? What’s that?”
Person B: “Oh you know, the big book printed around Rashi’s commentary”
Person A: “As it says in the Tanakh…”
Person B: “The Tanakh? What’s that?”

my take on the OU essay girl is that it is once again protestant nonsense. if you tried citing the bible at a Catholic university they’d ask what you were doing reading that and give you an F.

Assumption of good faith is a solid heuristic.
But also "assumptions" are guesses you make before you have the evidence. You are allowed to retract good faith once more evidence arises.
But also, you shouldn't assume good faith from folks who are your avowed enemies.
