Covid has now killed more Americans in 18 months than all the wars of the 20th century combined. And people are out here complaining that requiring unvaxxed workers to get tested once a week is an unreasonable burden. Be serious.

The responses to this tweet are more people talking about their unvaccinated loved ones dying from covid. As long as I have memory, I will never forget the fact that the right politicized a deadly virus. https://t.co/B7Wudy5MFj

you can rely heavily on logic and factual accuracy without being abrasive and condescending. I mean, no one walked away from Star Trek thinking Spock was an asshole.

If you quit your job because you don’t like having to follow basic professional rules and refuse to sit through a slap-on-the-wrist seminar after you break them, you weren’t cancelled. You’re not a victim. You just think you’re better than everyone and should be above the rules.

Allow me to offer the humble suggestion that if you find yourself whipping up a tasty little comparison between Nazi Germany and anything else, and if the Nazis are occupying the *not as bad as this other thing* role in the comparison, you should reevaluate your perspective. pic.twitter.com/sAfeCogPfC

Do y'all ever think about that the acute shortage of Cobol (and other) devs might be because many of these devs were women programmers in the 60s, 70s, 80s but who were so undervalued, actively erased from tech, that they left the field leading to the current talent shortage?

That's funny, because I'm equally sure he'd be too busy trying to win over Father Coughlin to have even the slightest interest in the plight of anyone elsewhere in the world. https://t.co/v44ri0MWRR

The claim that there was no “self-censorship” in academia until the “illiberal left” came and destroyed “free speech” is not worthy of serious discussion. Speech has always been (self-) regulated, everywhere, and the debate has always been over who gets to define the regulations. pic.twitter.com/5GVCF8hjAa

Because 230(c)(2) doesn't incentivize them to remove any particular content or reward them for doing it; it immunizes sites that delete comments opposing racism in exactly the same way it immunizes sites that delete things they consider racist.

You are a fool looking for attention. You don’t represent Jewish values. You preach hate for refugees, when your own ancestors came here as immigrants and refugees. Sit down and shut up. #RefugeesWelcome https://t.co/LUjIB2Dyu7

If you can sue me for getting an abortion, can I sue you for not getting the COVID vaccine?

I mean, as long as we’re litigating personal, legal medical choices.

I know that AI and ML don't actually work because I have spent five years patiently telling Twitter that I'm not interested in this every time they put some right wing asshole's name in "What's happening" or "Trending Topics" or whatever, and yet, those same names keep showing up

Ahhh.

Reading some hot nonsense is almost a comfort in the shitshow that is this week in U.S public policy.

And "give parents additional votes to cast on behalf of children because people with disabilities exist" is scalding nonsense.

“Rat out your neighbors’ personal medical decisions and the state will reward you with $10,000” sounds a hell of a lot more Soviet than most of the things Republicans these days denounce as “communism."

Not pro-life. Pro forced birth. That’s the correct terminology for anyone who discards the life, health, mental well-being, survival and freedom of the living… for the unborn. Who they will then equally disregard the human rights of once born.
