Defending a vote by claiming you never intended the stuff you voted for to happen is one of the weakest politician attempts to weasel out of responsibility.
Similar to “I voted to give Bush the power to go to war in Iraq just to threaten Saddam, I never supported invading Iraq.” https://t.co/GRMcgqtRhW

It’s both. Iron Dome saves civilian lives by shooting down rockets headed for civilian areas AND facilitates Israel’s squeeze-and-otherwise-ignore strategy re: Palestinians.
Treating this as complex makes people who want it to be simple good v. evil uncomfortable. But it’s both. https://t.co/gBnW4DhUWh

Sorry, I have no sympathy. If you're going to quit your job over getting a vaccine, that just opens jobs up for someone smarter. https://t.co/0RHaNAT7cX

my general feeling about this stuff is that if black kids can experience racism at young ages then white kids can learn about it

I need to urge people to not allow this to be a thing. Do not allow a paycut for remaining remote, because that accessibility should be available to disabled folks who already generally get hired, and paid, less. It is not any less work to do your work in a different location. https://t.co/T2nJr0MHy0

Idea that members of the White House Press Corps, after what they did in normalizing the corruption, incompetence, cruelty, authoritarianism, and disloyalty to US of Trump Regime, still think of themselves as the fourth estate, the protectors of democracy, is nauseating.

What's amazing about the Cancel Culture Crew is that they seem genuinely frustrated & impatient with requests for *evidence* that the thing exists at all. "Enough quibbling over details, we all know this is a problem." Uh, no, we don't! https://t.co/G0DQdeRUE9 https://t.co/aYgjosdPLT

Demonstrating that you’re impervious to reason and argument, and then demanding others try to convince you with reason and argument as you continue embracing falsehoods, is asking reasonable people to waste time arguing with you, while you ignore them and keep imposing on others.

Hi there. No, Sukhot doesn’t point to a single goddamned thing in Revelations.

It predates revelations by a millennium.

Nor are we “yet-to-believe” in your theology.

Thanks! https://t.co/wnMU6J3xEV

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

I think even the griftiest amongst you know it was a lot more than mean Tweets.

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

Mr. Takei, lengthy legal reasons aside, because the government recently of Trump, the government whose "truth" was that you and your family were dangerous and should be interned, cannot be trusted to dictate what's true and punish those who deviate.https://t.co/eZsszQ7jE9

actually i think that this largely misses the point and reinforces a false narrative. the problem is that it's actually genuinely impossible to effectively make those decisions about what is "good" & "bad" at the scale of billions of pieces of content in dozens of languages, etc https://t.co/FwGxN8A1Pm

Many websites would be smaller if delivered as a JPEG than assembled through DOM and I don't know there's any bigger indictment of the entire profession.

The fact that people are demonizing someone and holding protests demanding that someone speak to the police (which even if not guilty of a crime NECESSARILY involves incriminating ones self) is absolute insanity. It’s like y’all have not learned anything.

How about you fight like hell to get people vaccinated, Ron?

Because you talk a lot more about ANYTHING other than that.

And sport, you are the apotheosis of partisan bitterness. https://t.co/zgpCWHMtLb

mRNA is underrated.
Caught up in politicized arguments about COVID vaccines—they’re good, everyone get one—we under-appreciate what a miracle of science it is.
We’ve hacked our immune systems. They’re going to cure, or at least reduce suffering from, all sorts of stuff with this.
