Bitch took over Penn to crush dissent

Once more: the best evidence shows that Tylenol taken during pregnancy is not harmful. **This question is settled.** The benefit of reducing discomfort and fever is extremely important at a time when the fetus is developing.

LET'S GET RRRRREAAAAADY TO DISSSSSSSEMMMMMBBLLE!

This is what we need from elected officials -- a commitment to stand up for their constituents and, just as important, a willingness to tell right-wing trolls to get bent.

Ezra Klein is, legitimately, a moron.

this exists it is called thinking

Meta is truly fucking gross.

I would love to be part of the conversation on MSNBC related to the Kimmel story and it's chilling effects on first amendment, but unfortunately I was terminated by MSNBC for stating that "hateful thoughts lead to hateful words which lead to hateful actions".

If you're a university president insisting that you need to invite more people like Charlie Kirk to your campus, you should first be required to make a speech to all your students, staff and faculty that reads off all the verbatim quotes from Charlie Kirk in this piece.

John Yoo is a criminally immoral psychopath, so if he thinks you're beyond the pale, that's....insane.

What I love most about the insincere religiosity of the right these days is how they keep making it crystal clear they don't actually read the Bible. There were twelve *apostles* and, even then, there was one (Matthias) who replaced Judas and was known as the 13th apostle. Otherwise, great work.

Ta-Nehasi Coates is doing a lot of things with this essay, but one of the most important is fearlessly using examples of anti-trans hate to describe Charlie Kirk's politics. The contrast between his choices and those of other writers for major legacy outlets is revealing.

Fun fact: Nancy Mace is trying to censure me over comments I never said.   Her res does not contain a single quote from me because she couldn’t find any.   Unlike her, I have routinely condemned political violence, no matter the political ideology.

how is this real

Well, that’ll solve the problem

A reminder that the only consistent thing in contemporary American politics is that racism is an organizing principle of the bad-faith right.

you don’t say

The decadence is now total, and the GOP exists only to perpetuate a recursive cycle of abusing power to generate propaganda to justify further abuses of power, sending free society into a rapid downward spiral. www.offmessage.net/p/right-wing...

Wait I was told Iran was days away from a nuclear bomb. Now we find out Netanyahu said privately they were actually years away. Starting to wonder if the U.S. can trust this man’s word!

"The number of people believing [AI] has a positive effect is outweighed by those who think it does not" www.theguardian.com/technology/2... The backlash is coming. Let's focus it on the power structures that created the underlying problems, not just on the shoddy tech.

I hope I can live long enough to see Stephen Miller prosecuted, convicted, and sentenced for his numerous crimes against humanity. I hope we can all see him sniveling and crying as he's taken to prison.

I am just going to keep posting that the TX governor recently pardoned a political murderer. The dude texted "I'm going to shoot protestors", then went and shot a Black Lives Matter protester. He was convicted in a jury trial. Hard to find a more blatant example of celebrating political violence.

When I was placed on the Professor Watchlist in 2021, people sent death threats about my children. I had security officers monitor my 8yo at school. Where is all the outrage for those of us who have been targeted for years? Where is the outrage for our families? My own colleagues are silent.

JD Vance and the Trump’s Administration have essentially declared war on half of America's population. Trump voters think this will make America great again as Trump and his billionaire friends take their money and health care. Good luck, friends.

does she have a GoFundMe and if not can someone tell her to set one up

Vance follows many of the open neo-Nazis that were pushing this massive, coordinated harassment campaign. It's where he gets a bunch of his rhetoric. It's been over a year and news media refuses to cover that Vance is deeply networked with honest-to-god, swastika-loving Nazis.

All you need to know about That Town is everyone (not karen) pretended to care about Khashoggi until it was no longer convenient given the various personal and financial entanglements people had, so they stopped

Karen Attiah, the last Black full-time opinion columnist at the Washington Post, says she was fired for quoting Charlie Kirk directly

There is nothing more relatable than a deep and powerful love for buffalo wild wings.

Though it’s traumatic for me to bring this up, I was targeted by a group allied with Turning Point USA in 2018, with the help of Tucker Carlson on Fox. My home address circulated online and I got death threats. 1/

They should absolutely take vengeance out on each other. Maybe then they'll learn that it's immoral.

"All-american" insofar as the US has always been a breeding ground for white fringe bigots.

When you write a piece noting that a guy promoted racism and violence, his followers immediately prove you right

I wrote my own Charlie Kirk obituary, and about valuing truth over manners: www.thenation.com/article/poli...

i see another journalist at the atlantic is employing the "you can't prove i'm acting in bad faith, what if i'm actually this stupid" defense

Kirk wanted to denaturalize his political opponents. He bussed insurrectionists to the Capital on J6. He attacked our democracy with election conspiracy theories. He urged his millions of listeners to bail Paul Pelsosi's attacker out of jail.

Just thinking about how the right made up an entirely fictional left wing character that resulted in so many bomb threats and the like and nobody will face consequences. But people on the left who accurately clocked the victim’s life work lost jobs.

Back in late 2017, I was tentatively working on a story for The Atlantic about Comicsgate and the ways publishers weren’t adapting to their tactic of shrieking swarm attacks to get people fired. Which led to — and you will never believe this — a shrieking swarm attack that got me fired

Keep picturing Patel dropping the casings in terror after reading “if you read this youre gay”

DC hired Gretchen ostensibly for the extreme things she's said which have made her popular, and now fired her after actually making books, for saying things like she has always said. DC Comics chasing its own tail with a lighter for like 90 years.
