A nation whose king would object to citizens’ call for his abolition should reconsider whether that’s a king worth having imo

We’re going to start a revolution but only with the people who meet a very specific set of criteria that I can’t actually define.

Their goal isn’t to improve the governance of the most dangerous nation-state in human history, it’s to be able to explain to the people we kill with robots why nothing the United States does could ever be their fault.

It is not politicization of tragedy to attribute right-wing violence to Donald Trump and his movement. It is a conclusion based in tangible evidence.

I'm very confident that the people out in the streets today aren't going to let our country fall into fascism. The enemy can continue to intimidate us, to attack our leaders and try to scare us, but there were more people standing up to say "no" today than they can ever have people-snatching goons.

If your brain isn’t smooth as glass, it’s your duty to catch a block from any idiot who blames the radicalization of the American right on Joe Biden’s border policy.

Same. For younger people, and men especially, providing a quiet off-ramp for what are often inherited politics is enormously important and you’d be hard pressed to find stronger soldiers in the long term. These people often feel 1) lied to by a hollow movement and 2) obligated to fix their mistakes.

We’re out of time for this type of self-soothing that suggests the conflict can be resolved by copy editing policy papers.

I’m not saying it’s true of everyone over there, but Noah was always a piece of shit seeking permission to be a piece of shit.

the most incredible thing about Thomas Chatterton Williams is the passage where he recalls him beating up his girlfriend as a young man as being a sad reflection on the way he was raised rather than a bad thing he did
