Lots of publications style themselves as being pluralist. But you're not really pluralist unless you're regularly eliciting this sort of reaction from readers.
Being genuinely pluralist is hard, because you risk repulsing people who say they want to be challenged but actually don't want that at all.
I don't want other publications to force themselves into doing things this way! That's not my point! I think it would be a terrible thing if we didn't have commentary pages from specific perspectives.

It’s important to point out here that “stabbed them in the back again and again” refers to Cheney publicly dissenting from Trump’s unhinged insistence that Biden stole the election.
Similarly, when Dan recommends that Cheney "move off this topic," it's critical to recognize that "this topic" refers to Cheney publicly denouncing the insurrection-fomenting misinformation that Biden fraudulently hacked our electoral system.

I appreciate that Dan called Cheney's position "admirable"—I genuinely do.

But the rest of the thread provides a conception of leadership that is seriously backwards, and adopting it would reduce, rather than enhance, the effectiveness of Cheney's "admirable stance."

I'm thrilled to debut a new @ArcDigi section called Polyarchy—named after one of my favorite works in poli sci.

I want this to be the premier place for intelligent discussion on political theory. We begin with a sharp explainer on critical theory by @MattPolProf
After picking it, I remembered that the rascals at Vox had a blog by that name (it's actually a fantastic blog). But I didn't care. As I said, I love the Dahl book and the name's got "arc" in it, so 🤷‍♂️
Earlier this week, we also debuted another section: Arc Conversations. Read the first entry here.

One America News Network is launching their own social media platform and it could not be funnier.
"No ShadowBanning or blocking here!"
Imagine debuting a dime-store Parler, which is already a penny-store Twitter.

This is a favorite technique of braindead extremists: they hold up a hyperradical dirtbag and implicitly equate them with ordinary people who have broadly acceptable views.

Imaging arguing that because NICK FUENTES is having problems x, y, and z ... that means YOU will too.
A lot of people are interested in debating the legitimacy of putting Fuentes on a no fly. That’s neither what my tweet was about, nor a plausible thing to believe in the first place. Thus far the only “evidence” we have is his word, which means nothing given that’s he’s a scumbag
Blocked this loser for snitch-tagging to Fuentes, who commands a troll army like you wouldn’t believe. Image

Imagine how warped you have to be to use "tyrannophobic" as a pejorative.
My good bitch has me blocked but is nonetheless tweeting about me. This is what makes him such an impressive individual.
It appears his own abstract is also a damning indictment of our educational system
