I, too, wish the conversation around police reform was more civil. We could use more of that in every public debate. But that doesn't change the fact that you have a fundamental right to criticize the government, & that includes law enforcement.

FL is mulling a bill that would criminalize filming cops on duty.

A legislature in NY passed a bill to let cops sue people for harassment, AKA speech they dislike.

And the most "libertarian" senator says there will be consequences for "words" against police. Upside-down world. https://t.co/IcK4rl8Udd

Check out this blazing example of virile conservative masculinity pondering eliminationist fantasies about queer people that he projects onto a hypothetical "average American parent" because he's too cowardly to admit they are his own. https://t.co/UzcW3JQjV7

Some of y’all are worried about what’s in the COVID vaccines while you’re 100lbs overweight eating McDonald’s every day, vaping from a USB drive, and haven’t had a glass of water or a vegetable in 7- 10 business days. 👀🙃

Consequences for words? Like speech? Like, if an armed state agent got their feelings hurt you want to cage a citizen for it? This is small government? pic.twitter.com/udzvFXv8FU

No thank you. I don't mind if you believe in your sky god but I don't and I don't need anyone "instilling" it in me, whatever Josh thinks that means. https://t.co/JiOffwBpd0

So much of the American right's turn towards authoritarianism, so much of the hyperbolic culture war fears of existential threat, is driven by despising the fact that most Americans now think LGBT people should be treated as equals.

I love how in between desperate gasps about soft woke authoritarianism, Rod Dreher wonders contemptuously how anyone might question Hungary's democratic bona fides given the existence of regular elections.

really hard to think of a shittier path to learning all the loudest right wing opinions are utter bad faith horseshit they can pivot away from and back into as often as they like and that none of it is real but the racism and cruelty. https://t.co/ai65MuMdUC

Amy Cooper knows that she is the exact American profile who can expect to have their feelings respected over the facts, and that appealing to terror is appealing to the violent unease with Black people that resides in the hearts of a majority of the public adjudicating her.

There seems to be a correlation between how “nationalist” and “patriotic” a person claims to be on twitter and how much time they spend shitting on American olympians.

Guys like Rod Dreher are just fascinating to me. They're so mad about things like gay people having rights, something that has zero effect on them, they're just like fuck it I'll be a fascist then. I mean what?
