Can’t decide if I like this better in or out of character.She's an embarrassment to my state.
I support exceptions for medical reasons, incest, rape, etc.
So I don’t think we disagree on this issue.
Just because someone is educated doesn't mean that they're not an authoritarian.I gave a lot of people way too much credit. I thought their fealty to trump would disappear once he was out of office. The man knows nothing about anything, and came over from a reality show to take over a major political party that’s filled with Ivy League educated, life long politicians. I feel like I’m missing something really important that would make this make sense.
The terms "left" and "right" appeared during the French Revolution of 1789 when members of the National Assembly divided into supporters of the king to the president's right and supporters of the revolution to his left.[6][7] One deputy, the Baron de Gauville, explained: "We began to recognize each other: those who were loyal to religion and the king took up positions to the right of the chair so as to avoid the shouts, oaths, and indecencies that enjoyed free rein in the opposing camp".[8]

Right-wingers have always loved absolute kings and dictators because they believe that society is best structured with a clear and definite hierarchy where some decide and others execute. Trump is the closest Americans has ever been to the archetype of the modern authoritarian leader, so it shouldn't surprise anyone that college-educated folks who subscribe to the same vision of what society ought to be have flocked to him.

I get this. Them handing over their party to an idiot is what gets me. I'm sure trump is an ivy leaguer too, but I'd put my middle of the road sec education up against him any day. The guy knows nothing. He always has a plan that he can't reveal just yet and he fails at everything. His most profitable business venture was becoming potus; and that **** ended with him trying to overthrow the govt.Just because someone is educated doesn't mean that they're not an authoritarian.

humans for a milenia, **** outside in public but we don't do that anymore either.
there are a lot of terrible things that humans are naturally prone to,
we come up with laws, culture, norms ect to curb behavior that's bad for socitey..
progressives should embrace a culture of tolerance and good faith open debate,
and should strongly discourage attempts to stifle dissent, resist the urge to turn every dispute or trait into and identity and should reject excessive speech as harm arguments.
we are human, and we do fail but that should be the goal.
Bouie is reasonable, I may disagree with him on stuff, but he generally argues in good faith.
but quoted in that Bouie tweet thread is NHJ tweet is an clearly a total mischaracterization.
most of the arguments Ive seen about Camp, devolve into whataboutism, "xyz stuff is worse so shut up "
or she wrote for reason so she's a conservative, and therefore is wrong and bad.
or she's did work for FIRE, so there for she's a Koch Brothers plant. and wrong and bad
or you got an op ed therefore no one is self censoring , just a silly girl imagining things.
When a class discussion goes poorly for me, I can tell. During a feminist theory class in my sophomore year, I said that non-Indian women can criticize suttee, a historical practice of ritual suicide by Indian widows. This idea seems acceptable for academic discussion, but to many of my classmates, it was objectionable.
The room felt tense. I saw people shift in their seats. Someone got angry, and then everyone seemed to get angry. After the professor tried to move the discussion along, I still felt uneasy. I became a little less likely to speak up again and a little less trusting of my own thoughts.
I was shaken, but also determined to not silence myself. Still, the disdain of my fellow students stuck with me. I was a welcome member of the group — and then I wasn’t.
one of the co-hosts left vox years ago as a writer and is still hosting.
so I doubt it's about wanting to feature their employees.
i have no idea if they did him dirty, but I don't see why your interpretation of the events is more valid than mine.
we are just guessing,
