Would it be legal to shoot these guys in a “stand your ground” state like Florida?

Just listened.
Good stuff.
I really appreciate all the great work The Lever has done of late.
(Back to our Future is also one of my favorite books.)

It’s never about doing anything differently, just how to sell their bullshit.

That would’ve made Escape From Alcatraz a very different movie.

The Overton window on this has been pushed so far to the racist right that this type of shit just gets treated as normal…
It’s horrifying.

Agreed 100%

As someone who has not read any Killjoy (I love her podcast), what would be a good first read?
I didn’t know she was so prolific…
And I don’t know where to start.

That must be why no one is showing up at those Bernie/AOC rallies…

Coming from you, that means a lot.
I certainly have found myself slipping in that direction at times.
Thanx for all your excellent work.

I don’t know if this is fair…

Unfortunately, the press that most older people consume didn’t cover it that way.
Fox News and local newscasts laundered all that to make it seem less horrifying.
All the older folks where I’m from (Alabama) are in absolute denial that it is even happening.

I bet that me and you agree on a lot more than we disagree…
And I’m sure you’re a decent person.
Let just try to have more of a conversation than this, please.

There it is.
Knew that was coming.
Man - I wish we had a major political party whose leadership was actually anti-genocide.

As someone who reads a lot of his work, I would argue that as least has progressive sympathies.
comment in response to
post
I’m not sure if he would identify as such, but I came to know his reporting through progressive sources initially- and he wrote a book about The Squad.
The comments section was definitely a bunch of lefties (of which I am one) just freaking out. It’s just bums me out.

One of the problems with Trump is that it’s difficult to tell what is just bluster, and what he’s serious about.
I suspect (and hope) this is the former, but I really don’t know.
comment in response to

Why don’t those of us on the left make an effort to understand where each other is coming from a little bit before just tearing each other apart online?
Just a suggestion.

Lot of overreactions to this initial post.
Jeez.
