2020 is gonna be a doozy
The super fun thing about writing a book on modern misogyny is knowing that this idea - that women's suffrage ruined America - is absolutely gaining traction in men's rights spaces online.

Good luck enjoying the rest of your day!
Shot, chaser.

A Republican running for governor in Mississippi refused a female reporter access to a campaign ride-along unless she was accompanied by a male colleague. Super normal country. mississippitoday.org/2019/07/09/rob…
Here's him whining that his opponents got male reporters for their ride-alongs (no fair!)
If this guy can't be trusted alone with a woman, how can he be trusted with a state?

These people have no shame
It's like she lifted lines from an afterschool special on victim-blaming
Also last time I checked they took an aggressive heavy drinker and made him a fucking Supreme Court justice so maybe these hypocrites should keep Blasey Ford's name out of their mouths

Twitter seems to be banning or suspending accounts belonging to critics of the Chinese government. It started yesterday May 31th. Here is one report - I noticed a sudden loss of followers yesterday, I checked, it was mainly China critics. Twitter❤️🇨🇳 Amazing! @mouse @1GigiSims
This is happening as an effort to silence #China critics ahead of the anniversary of the Tiananmen Square massacre, which is next Tuesday. Twitter is helping China do its dirty work to silence the legitimate opposition. Twitter has hit a new all time low! 👎👎👎
One other possibility that can't be discounted is that the #Chinese government is hacking into Twitter and is deleting the accounts of Chinese critics. I did hear reports in the past, that Chinese hackers were able to get into Twitter & do that.

Just last night, @realDonaldTrump shared a Trump Org tweet promoting—

Ferry Point.

@realDonaldTrump @1100Penn If Eric Trump is no longer involved in his charity, why does this golfer—who just played in a benefit for it—call it "the Eric Trump Foundation"? [H/T @npenzenstadler]

@realDonaldTrump @1100Penn @npenzenstadler Last night a gala was held to celebrate students who committed to enlist in the U.S. military after graduation. It was held at—

Trump National D.C.

Major General Scott Dingle addressed the recruits.

@estahthor 1. I'm now 9 years on #Twitter: Had 30 new followers per day (around 1.000 new followers per month) for years. When #Klout still existed I had 69 (pretty high, CNN was at 80 plus), I had 100.000 #impressions on average per day (max over 1 million). NOW:
@estahthor 2. NOW: #Follower-count remains flat for years (despite new followers & unfollow-tool shows 30 unfollows per week), #impressions now around 40.000 per day (60% less). RT & Likes still high, but had much more in the past.
There is no doubt that @jack & @Twitter mute our accounts!
@estahthor @jack @Twitter 3. I'm still on #Twitter because it's fun (have 3 good finance circles on here, my news & politics exchange & infotainment & fun), but I notice many smaller accounts leave (too little interactions): At the end all #censorship kills, especially on #SocialMedia.

1. Exclusive: Six sources tell me that CBS News' new President Susan Zirinsky has told people she regrets taking the job. Her apparent regret is the last thing the news division needs right now.

(cont) yashar.substack.com/p/exclusive-cb…
2. In an email, @szirinsky told me, “I have ZERO regrets about taking this job. This is a great job and my way of dealing with the pace is with humor. Obviously, some people don’t get it. Check back with me in a year and I’ll let you know how it’s going.”

3. Last Saturday, @AOC tweeted that people should pause donations to the DCCC and give directly to candidates. One of the candidates she tweeted about was Rep. @MikeLevinCA. So how much does an AOC tweet bring in? A source tells me Levin raised over $30k yashar.substack.com/p/exclusive-cb…

It’s apparent that #Twitter is an unhealthy place to discuss #antiJewishBigotry & age-old slurs of dual loyalty, recklessly hurled by @IlhanMN to essentially stir up worst examples of extreme hate. 1 /
.@NitaLowey #IlhanOmar manipulates outcries against #antiJewish prejudice by twisting words & inventing stawpeople, as in, fake arguments criticizing #Israel is not “...” — when that wasn’t even the issue! She’ll accuse #Jewishlawmakers of vile charges & when ppl object... 2/
.@NitaLowey ... she will raise unrelated, FALSE issue of, I’m being attacked because I’m #Muslim. She’ll FALSELY claim, I won’t pledge allegiance to #Israel... when noone has asked her to. All to stir up twitter mob which does NOT represent proportion of real life views. 3/
