I think when you're at the point that you're explaining "if you were in Nazi Germany at the time, you also might have helped out in genocide" you've probably already lost that debate. https://t.co/IrQvdcpypn

It's 2022, far past time to acknowledge as a society that anyone who sees "Satanist messaging" in random things ought not be taken seriously about anything they say, ever, because they are malfunctioning in every way. https://t.co/HctIVLl77F

1. Wtf is wrong with parents?
2. That mural is great.
3. VARA is terrible... but this may be the one case where I'd support a VARA claim on a mural.
4. If we survive, we're going to look back on these moral panics and wonder WTF was wrong with these parents. https://t.co/qZM9pv7eKy

That essay in the Federalist today, which I won't link to, is absolutely disgusting and horrifying.

The right of Trans people to exist, live freely, and free of discrimination, is not a "question" as that horrible essay framed it.

Just plain, horrific cruelty.

the one to say when "just a little bit of antisemitism is OK, as a treat".

Or racism. Or sexism. You can sit it the fuck out, because it's not you that gets to feel the impact.

Just like I get exactly zero say in what amount (above 0) of anti-catholic bigotry is acceptable.

Every last fucking word of this and the ease with which non-Jews like @baseballcrank excuse antisemitism as a minor foible in the grand scheme of things (assuming the antisemite otherwise has the right political leanings) is a disgrace.

If you really believed children were in danger of being sexualized you'd do a lot more than cut off funding.

Along with being ridiculous these people are lying to you. https://t.co/pQWpVylRj5

Sorry, but I have a really hard time hearing haughty commentary on fatherhood & good life choices from the guy who moved 5,500 miles away from his children & is repackaging that as the Christ-like option. https://t.co/Iy7UAdWvSU

To everyone who lobbied to overturn Roe: THIS is your legacy.

For every Amanda who has spoken out, there are countless others who have suffered silently because of Dobbs, and more to come if we do not take action. https://t.co/V1eYcRTXZY

You want government so small you can crawl up millions of vaginas. Also, lying is a sin. You are forced birth. https://t.co/X4F2Y24g5y

Elon not owning Twitter is entirely Elon’s fault.
He made an offer.
He signed a contract.
He regretted signing the contract and tried to back out (while transparently lying about it).
But if you wanted Elon to own Twitter—because it’d own the libs?—that means the left stopped it.

This is what Tucker and the broader MAGA and NatCon movements mean by “the left,” though.
Anything you’re unhappy about, anything that goes a way you didn’t want it to go, is because of the left.
You don’t mess up, you don’t get unlucky, the left did it to you, so get aggrieved. https://t.co/bV3tecOS8t

I’d love to ask voters who say they’re going Republican because of inflation what policy they heard them propose to fight it.

DeSantis’s eagerness to violate the basic humanity of marginalized people for cheap political points is a big reason why he has such a bright future in today’s Republican Party. https://t.co/Sla9ChoorK
