Comparing "cancel culture" to persecution of gays in the 1950s is deranged. Homosexuality was illegal, gathering spaces were prohibited and police regularly raided gay bars. All of that is measurable and none of it applies to modern-day conservatives. https://t.co/MeHymafq7O

Okay, @CatoInstitute, government interference with basic bodily autonomy is a political question not a legal one so you won’t file or advocate,

Cool. Cool.

Can we expect similar restraint when political questions on regulation, taxes, and other healthcare issues come up? https://t.co/86fIyVp95T

A reminder that there are people in this country who would overturn the right to marry someone of a different race based on religious objections https://t.co/ylQsRmApNE

Leaving aside the issue that the military is explicitly supposed to be controlled by politicians, the SEAL teams made me go to the dentist and get a filling on a painless tooth before I went on deployment so yes, they can make you get a shot. Dumbass. https://t.co/RqqaIVpC2x

Republican Tom Cotton, who will not vote to fund the government, says Democrats need to fund the government, despite his entire party blocking Democrats from funding the government, so they can blame Democrats for not funding the government. https://t.co/bo3lriEw8x

You’re not “pro-life,” you're a contemptuous billionaire who spent $300k to reinstate the death penalty, imported illegal lethal injection drugs, then spent two years blocking medicaid expansion for Nebraskans in poverty.

Just say you support forced birth and log off. https://t.co/gYCwE7EKL6

How many times do we have to tell you people, Facebook isn't pro-Democrat or pro-Republican. We don't have liberal or conservative bias. We're not in the tank for the left or the right. We're pro-Facebook. https://t.co/8dDL5NgFwZ

Most inherently recognize that there’s a difference between state action in a war zone where some people are actively trying to kill you and state action in a location with no military threat where people are asking for your help. https://t.co/i5RdEqWUS2

The same people yelling about “rescuing” Afghans “abandoned” by Biden can’t even bother to show up for a Pakistani American. https://t.co/3quHNECsXt

I usually avoid the topic, but it does make my cynical heart beat that missing white woman syndrome is trending.

Every arm of American media treats whiteness as the default. White problems are America's problems but everybody else's problems are "special interests."

I know America seems extremely divided, and the gulf between Right and Left seems to be getting wider and angrier, but rest assured there’s a constant American value that unites us with enduring bonds:

Everyone thinks it should be easier to punish speech they don’t like.

The fact that "cancel culture" is predominantly used as a cynical, dishonest partisan club should not obscure the fact that a big chunk of college students ARE nasty, narrow-minded little Maoists.https://t.co/AXOOKQLOMK

"Cancel culture includes people who choose not to be dicks because then people would call them dicks and they don't want that"

The former doesn't really worry me.

"The solution to bad speech is more speech" does not inherently include "therefore I must politely listen to this speech". Especially where, as on a college campus, there is disparity in the *literal platform* given to speakers.

meanwhile in the real world, public k-12 teachers are monitored by school boards on social media for dissent and harassed into quitting by parents that think they're teaching "CRT" or "cultural marxism". but oh your poor speaking engagements :( https://t.co/G3MeBhzLYw
