Front-page reporter for the world's most powerful newspaper, and of her very best male allies, literally using their massive platform to literally generate harassment campaigns against me again. This is what writing on the internet as an openly gay journalist constantly provokes.
Thanks again to Taylor and her gallant defender and ally Ed. My mentions are literally filled with all kinds of harassment, forcing me to literally consider having to lock my account.
You try to just do your job as an independent journalist, and you literally have employees of the largest and most powerful media corporations in the world using their large platforms and constellation of Good Allies to literally make your job impossible with endless harassment.
Thank you for all those expressing solidarity. after Taylor's latest attacks. I'm OK. 💕

NBC publishes its standard liberal commentary about an inflammatory topic (CRT and schools) dressed up as news. They send one of the reporters, @BrandyZadrozny, onto TV with Chris Hayes to discuss it. She says remarkably dumb and offensive things and gets criticized for it. Thus:
Male journalists like Ben invoke, so cynically, precepts of feminism in part to show what Good Allies they are but, more so, to place journalists off limits from criticism. That's their main goal. And they use a regressive view of women to do it (too fragile to be criticized).
Brandy's TV comments that attracted criticism were obnoxious and odious, whining how unfair it is that the uncredentialed masses are imposing "onerous" FOIA requests to learn what their kids are being taught. But if you criticize this, you're sexist:
Now that the militaristic/neocon wing of the GOP is using their decades-old "soft-on-RUSSIA" attacks against Biden, will liberals finally be able to see why it's so ignorant and dangerous?
Last night, Tucker Carlson & @RichardHanania mocked and scorned the GOP's Biden-is-soft-on-Russia ad as the idiotic residue of the neocon/Bush/Cheney militarism still in the GOP. Is it possible to imagine an MSNBC or CNN host maligning a DNC ad like this?
Can anyone even imagine, say, Chris Hayes or Don Lemon going on air and saying: "We're about to show you a DNC attack ad on Mitch McConnell," and then bash it for being dishonest and dangerous? LOL. Exactly.
Democrats and their media allies couldn't believe Amy Coney Barrett has genuine judicial principles -- as opposed to corruptly abusing power based on her politics -- because that's how they reason. People without principles always assume others are plagued by the same disease.
That doesn't make Barrett's judicial philosophy correct. It's not one I share. But she has a judicial philosophy that she tries to apply in an apolitical way, making so many claims about her false:
“Confirming Amy Coney Barrett will be the end of the Affordable Care Act" - @AOC.
And please never forget one of the most repugnant moments of 2020: when @DrIbram, in the middle of ACB's confirmation, decided to announce that white parents who adopt non-white children are racist colonizers.
I'm a little unclear about this massive CNN/NBC/WPost freakout today about questions regarding FBI infiltration of the groups behind 1/6. DHS has been warning for 2 years at that they pose the greatest threat. Do people doubt that FBI infiltrated them & had informants in them?
The FBI had at least one informant in the group charged with the plot to kidnap Gov. Whitmer. They constantly used informants/infiltrators to steer plots from the first War on Terror. Why are people so doubtful that they had informants in these groups?
I can't even count how many "terror plots" I reported on as part of the first War on Terror that were designed, driven and even funded by the FBI, but it was a lot. They'd instigate their own plots, then congratulate themselves for stopping them:
The problem for Nathan and those like him is they built their whole self-image based on being radical leftists, totally different from their MSNBC-watching parents and the Democratic Party. Now they struggle to find any differences so this is all they have. Nobody cares.
