The essential grift with Bari Weiss style takes that falsely equate "free speech" or liberty with speech they personally like is pretending no one else is doing it. That's even more true of pro-corporate center right content. It's already a dominant perspective even at WaPo. Now it's even moreso

Your periodic reminder that if s.o. wrote handwringing books/articles/Substack posts warning against “woke” and “DEI” over the last five years, THIS WAS WHAT THEY WERE ENVISIONING. This is their project: an illiberal, anti-intellectual state attack on higher education. www.thedp.com/article/2025...

NYC has no mayor — Eric Adams is a pawn to the Trump Regime who’s welcomed MAGA’s program with open arms. Fascist collaborators have no place in our government.

“Our predecessors deposed a brain-addled king; they crushed the violent insurrectionists of a slaveholding confederacy; they kicked the Nazis’ asses throughout Europe.” “No entitled reality-TV has-been backed by an addle-brained billionaire who cheats at video games is going to roll over us now.”

Just so much pain this morning as the bodies of Shiri, Ariel, and Kfir Bibas and Oded Lifshitz return to Israel for burial. יהי זכרם ברוך A tragic reminder of why the second stage must be completed to bring remaining hostages home & allow Palestinians too to mourn their dead & rebuild their lives

A 10% universal tariff on $3.25 trillion of annual US merchandise imports would potentially raise ~$300 billion. Last year, US personal income tax brought in nearly 30x that.

With all due respect, Congressman, he’s not trying to distract from anything here. He’s a grandiose pathological narcissist. A narcissistic sociopath. A malignant narcissist. A psychopath. A megalomaniac. This is what he thinks of himself. And what he wants others to think of him.

This brought me up short: "Another hallmark of wokeness is an overriding impulse to contest and revise the historical record in service of contemporary debates." Is he implying that it is a new thing to interpret the past in light of "contemporary debates"? www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...
