If anyone thinks callous snark and casual racism are recent additions to National Review really should take a stroll through its issues over the first decade or so.

It was that stupid. Not as comically stupid as things are now, but absolutely the time when a critical mass of smart, competent people became credulous boobs overnight and everyone around them was like “welI I guess we’re doing this now”

This is a vital message: one of the larger reasons BlueSky is refreshingly free of alt-right shitlords is because in the early days we made a gentleperson’s agreement to starve these fuckos out and it worked. No likes, no quotes, no engagement. They got bored and left. Please keep the Old Ways.

Harriet Tubman #quilt by my Mom, Vera P. Hall, who makes quilts celebrating Black people who fought for their own freedom. This seems to be the crowd favorite of the “We Didn’t Wait for Freedom” series. Happy #Juneteenth #quilting

The courts are powerless to stop the warrantless arrest and disappearance of people in our workplaces, schools, and even courthouses themselves, but are sovereign over your access to healthcare, and the decisions you make about your own body and life. Remember this when they demand your respect.

New in PN: Judge rules that anti-woke is just racism “'I’ve never seen a record where racial discrimination was so palpable,' Judge Young fumed. 'I’ve sat on this bench now for 40 years. I’ve never seen government racial discrimination like this.' More of this, please"

ny times reporters love adding a "bluesky is going to hate this article!" addendum on here because they both resent criticism and resent having to post their work on the only platform that doesn't throttle outbound traffic lol

When Trump finally dies there will be calls for civility and “respect for the office” from even his harshest critics and I’m telling you right now I plan on saying things so harsh they might knock the earth off its axis

RIP to Nina, a woman who "in the 1970s repudiated the widely-held and unfounded belief that women could not and should not run such races of 26.2 miles." People literally claimed that our uteruses would fall out. The 1,500, just short of a mile, wasn’t added to the Olympics until 1972

Before you do a damn thing anyone on here is suggesting you do, as someone who teaches an entire class in media disinformation, do one thing: look to see of they are click-grifters, or coming from a place of genuine expertise rooted in years of experience. Ask yourself who benefits: you, or them?

I just saw a dude who follows me reply to a woman columnist's (spot-on) critique of that awful liz bruenig article by saying "maybe you just don't like the philosophical mode of debate" and I blocked him so hard I may have cracked my screen

The Atlantic should be ashamed of publishing this nightmare piece from Liz Bruenig, whose callous dismissal of Adriana Smith's dignity is one of the most shocking things I've ever read.

I don't think I've ever felt more like burning it all down than I have while witnessing the elite project to turn Zohran Mamdani and Brad Lander into scary, incompetent monsters while turning an actual incompetent monster, Andrew Cuomo, into a merely complicated fellow who just made an oopsie.

I love all the handwringing about Zohran’s lack of experience when a 19 year-old called Big Balls has recently been made a permanent federal employee with the title Senior Advisor at the GS-15 pay grade in the General Services Administration.

This is a piece on the Substack of the CEO of FIRE written by a FIRE's special consul for college campuses. This is a "free speech" organization literally taking Trump's side in its efforts to attack free expression at a university even though they believe the university is legally right.

I know a lot of folks like this account. But this is a wild, and unhelpful, exaggeration--it's a resistance version of sean spicer. It veers into #resistanceporn and trades accuracy for clout, like other "blue maga" grifters on here. Pls consider finding other sources of inspiration/news/motivation

The gunman no doubt thought of himself as a good person, as someone who was pro-life, but his ideology brought him to a place where he shot 17 bullets into a couple who got into politics to help get health insurance for his daughter, who has spina bifida.

“But there’s no ask channeling them into more sustained organizing!” Then YOU show up. Make some flyers, talk to people, invite them to a meeting, set up coffee for a 1:1 to find out how they want to get more involved. Do the work the normie libs supposedly aren’t if you think it needs doing so bad

Underneath all of those articles is a deep fury that Bluesky punishes instead of rewarding lazy and/or hostile engagement farming. Try to build a following here with trolling and slurs and you'll find yourself in a ghost town. To them that is simply intolerable.
