One thing I respect about Young Pharaoh is he is all caps, all of the time. He’s not interested in whispering anything.
Oh, you’re not interested in TRUTH BOMBS flying at you at a thousand miles per hour? Go read a safe person’s tweets. This is a soy free zone.
wtf @ this unbelievable censorship

all because he was flagrantly and unapologetically antisemitic???? somethin ain’t right here
Honestly, just consider how absolutely crazy you have to be to get the pink slip from CPAC, which is stacked top to bottom with psychos

Oh, white people "don't want to" lend the term denoting their racial identity to a concept designed to pick out "group entitlement," with no ameliorating qualification like "nationalism" or "supremacy" to signal that *being white* isn't the problem? The absolute nerve.
I should note that @deonteleologist is a good dude and I only screenshotted so that I could get both tweets in view, not because I'm going for a stealth dunk.
Imagine grammatically structuring a concept denoting entrenched power, unearned advantage, and group entitlement around a single group's race, with no alleviating qualifier signaling that only *some* are the baddies, and being miffed when they're less than enthusiastic about it.

It is hard to make sense of this claim. (Bret calls it an "argument," but no argument is actually given.) Why the use of "inherently"? What does "even if it worked" mean? What does it say about Bret's philosophy that a robust form of equality is tagged as "undesirable"?
This isn't pedantry. If he's going to substantiate his claim, he should grapple with it a bit more. There are elements in it that require support.

Take the subclaim that "equality of outcome is inherently unjust."
If equality of outcome is "inherently" unjust, then it's impossible for there to be a just instance of it. EOO would necessarily be unjust.

But we can easily imagine a world (a) whose beings enjoy equality of outcome and (b) is just. This would mean EOO isn't *inherently* unjust

What a spectacularly blinkered thing to say.
Seriously what in the hell is this?

In a sense, this column articulates the other side of the pitch frequently made about what the promise of a Biden presidency would bring: the idea that Biden represented a recovery of the boringly normal.

I'm in favor of Trump's impeachment for lots of reasons.

One is that as we continue to be plagued by political movements that defiantly resist tethering themselves to reality, one thing we can no longer allow is for politicians to enable them without meaningful accountability.
Obviously legal accountability, like the kind Smartmatic and Dominion have pursued, provides a massive disincentive to engaging in defamatory nuttery.
But bad actors will learn from this. They'll smarten up. They'll steer clear of invoking specific companies in the future.

We need accountability that disinclines politicians from doing things like fomenting insurrectionist fantasies.

Mollie Hemingway is a genuinely despicable person. Never forget how utterly vile this crowd showed themselves to be.
To suggest that applying political accountability to a literal assault on our democracy is some sort of masturbatory lib fantasy is the kind of trash take that could only come from a person with a genuinely broken brain.
Stop wanking to this obvious political theater attempting to <checks notes> hold accountable the person who got five human beings killed and hundreds badly hurt.
