NSFW. Turn down the volume if there are kids are around.

These are the people we're supposed to reason with, or not look down on, or whose grievances we're supposed to keep asking about in diners, or something. https://t.co/Kx2PElROiz

Like a bucket of ice water poured down the back of our collective necks: not even the people who build the algorithms governing our social discourse understand how they work. This is not ok. The canary is turning into a right-wing extremist. https://t.co/LMl3Qg8ESd

This grotesque, inhumane hellhole is where folks are held pretrial if they cannot make bail. And it’s the ⁦@nypost⁩ that has led the fight against bail reform, ensuring that Rikers remains even more overcrowded and inhumane. https://t.co/f48285qSfV

I called Ted Cruz's's office asking to make an appointment to talk with the Senator about my blood pressure. They told me that the Senator was not qualified to give medical advice and that I should call my doctor. So I asked them to stop giving advice about vaccines.#covid

When Yale Harbored a Nazi by Zachary Groz
Vladimir Sokolov was a beloved Russian professor at Yale. Then his past caught up with him.  For seventeen long years, from 1959 to 1976, Vladimir Sokolov had been a respected, well-liked Senior Lecturer in Russian at Yale. He was a skilled teacher, reserved, revealed little of himself, and stud...

A disconnect here is that people fixated on “wokeness” don’t like when others react to a bad case with “that’s bad, they should’ve handled it differently” or “that position is wrong, I disagree” without adding “this shows that liberal civilization is heading towards destruction.”

Maybe White People Should Feel Bad
In her appearance on The View, Condoleezza Rice argued that teaching kids about racism and inequality would make them feel bad. Why shouldn't they?

If you write "Just as in China under Chairman Mao..." in a piece about "cancel culture" in the U.S., is it reasonable for me to believe that you are, in fact, trying to compare the two, saying that there are real similarities? https://t.co/ejaWnWEW7x

If the NBA finds itself excluded from China, I will count that a tragedy. Perhaps not one that can be avoided, if they are to keep faith with core American values. But certainly nothing to revel in, as some kind of schadenfreude ("that's what you get").

I think China's efforts to censor NBA players is unacceptable and alarming. But I do not understand people who blame the NBA for trying to bring their business and culture to China in the first place, as though that were somehow itself a betrayal of their values.
