Uh oh. Somebody didn’t get the @mattyglesias memo. bostonglobe.com/news/nation/20…
(Also note that by saying the “criminal justice system” is racist, rather than “the police,” Warren embeds the structural analysis that Yglesias says is so hard to convey into a simple declarative sentence.)
(Also also note that said simple declarative sentence, coming from someone like Warren, invites a followup question that will give her the chance to explain the claim in more detail.)
I mean, a lot of people are going to vehemently disagree with a claim like “the criminal justice system is racist,” but as @SeanMcElwee suggested yesterday, it’s a hard sell to claim that most Americans won’t even understand it.
