what does it actually mean to call for the "death" of an organisation? It doesn't strike me as inciting violence so much as bureaucratic action...sounds more like a rhetorical flourish to me

TFW you've just broken in a new pair of runners and you now have another pair exactly the same in a cupboard to bring on board when these ones start to wear out.

Timothy Snyder with some compressed truth about truth. www.facebook.com/thedailyshow... via @mariopro.bsky.social When Step 1 becomes a commonplace, journalism and its practices are in peril. We crossed into that world well before the 2024 election, but it was hard to get journalists to see it.
