the problem with this discourse is that people say that the left needs to “speak to young men” in some general way, but no specifics are ever given because then you’d realize these people actually have no solution

We need to trust our eyes. Nazi salutes, racist purges, an ambush on the Ukrainian president by a far-right regime. If what we see aligns with what we know and is also in line with an established track record, our default assumption should be that what is happening is actually what it looks like.

It doesn't surprise me that Rahm does not understand that this joke is about his being a jackass and nothing else. When all you want in the world is to be a sexual predator, it's apparently difficult to understand that all some people — MOST people — want is to just use the damn bathroom.

There has been a lot of chatter today about Zelenskyy's meeting with Trump, some regarding this moment when White House correspondent Brian Glenn asked if the Ukrainian president plans to wear a suit. I want to address idea in this thread. 🧵

“while tragedy can bring a community together, when that tragedy is man-made, or when the response to that tragedy is cruel or inconsiderate, people tend to lose trust in their neighbors ... the cruelty of Trump’s response to the pandemic ... also killed the vulnerable’s faith in other people.”

ppl getting angry at this but he's talking alliances and he's 100% right- you cannot trust a country where every 4 yrs the foreign policy does a complete 180 & tears up treaties and reneges on deals and withholds payments because some sheep farmers in Wisconsin think too many black women have jobs

A lot of objection to “objectivity in journalism” is based in antiracism, specifically in the understanding that when a journalist’s identity isn’t of the “neutral” ilk, nothing we write is taken seriously as objective reporting no matter how much distance we put between ourselves and the subject.

Masks and handwashing work very well against the current form of flu, in the first year of Covid, when more people were masking, we knocked out an entire strain of flu. So there’s yet another reason to start wearing them.

Books designed to be read only by human eyes are different from books designed to be read by machines, which is why Google will tell you that the phrase “shake my booty” can be found in an 1863 English translation of Don Quixote.

Justifying victim blaming in cases where victims have been immoral, unethical, and harmful just creates the fallacy that abuse can be denied if you just dig up or make up bad things the victim has done. We see this play out every day

Yes, people dislike wearing face masks but reality is that with all the viruses circulating (COVID, bird flu, regular flu, RSV) you can choose to be a little uncomfortable wearing a mask in public -or- you can choose to be sick constantly. That's what our options are really coming down to.
