If you are so fucking stupid, you use dipshit lingo like “brogressives” when talking about JOE BIDEN’S LEGISLATIVE AGENDA, your stay in my mentions will be very brief.
And if you like or retweet moronic comments like that, so will yours.
Seriously, it is absolutely pathetic how many people are so obsessed with hating OTHER DEMOCRATS, they cannot process that Progressives were the ones trying to protect JOE BIDEN’S LEGISLATIVE PRIORITIES.
There is no excuse in 2021 for being this fucking obtuse. None.
The irony here is that AOC’s biggest fans hate me because I have been a critic of *some* of her choices.
They think I’m some centrist because I’m an older progressive who understands that the keyword there is “progress” - as in, actually making some.
Seeing some pretty wild, over the top takes about the “Tik Tok school violence scare”.
Seems like folks might not really understand Tik Tok and the current dumb trend.
1/
The backstory here is that somehow, a topic went viral on Tik Tok talking about there being violence in schools across the country today.
Topics spread fast on Tik Tok. It is designed for that. That’s literally part of its strategy. It is a viral platform.
2/
Tik Tok is built to find things that are getting attention and accelerate them getting much more attention.
Usually, they’re totally benign. A dance. A stunt. Sometimes they’re things like BTS mobilizing a zillion people to sign up for all the tickets to a Trump rally.

I am a person who tends to vastly underestimate the amount of effort involved in things I want to do.
If I like an idea, I will be at least 100% off on my estimate of how hard it will be to do.
Every time.
Case in point: I saw an eagle today. I wanted to take its picture.
1/
I mean, how hard can that be?
I have a camera with a very large lens and the eagle was just sitting there.
This would certainly be a quick affair.
The minor rub: the eagle was a freakin’ mile away.
See the yellow arrow?

So, I’m like “No prob. I shall walk down this bank approximately 50
yards and that will somehow reduce the distance between us by approximately one mile. Geometry!”
It seems reasonable to speculate that the White House Press Corp:
1) Heard about the Trump Admin’s evolving coup plot
2) Didn’t report on it for a variety of reasons (eg would hurt their access; didn’t take it seriously; etc); and
3) Now, they’re in a bind
1/
It seems absolutely impossible that the Maggie Haberman’s of the world didn’t hear *anything at all* about literally the only work anyone in the Trump Admin was doing for two months.
These crooks ain’t that slick… and a bunch of them saw nothing wrong with what they were doing.
Narcissists are experts at creating a coercive dependency that keeps people onboard with their misbehavior - or at least keeps them silent.
We’re quickly learning about the lawmakers who were onboard.

It has come to my attention that @SamStein has blocked me.
Did you know that when Sam is done hyping Politico’s anti-Biden bullshit every day, he goes home to his multimillion dollar home paid for by his Facebook attorney wife?
Or, here’s a fun-fact:
Sam silver-spooned his way through a prep school that runs close to $50k a year before silver-spooning his way through an Ivy.
Now Sam uses all that privilege to shitpost the Biden Admin for profit while his wife collects Facebook money.
Guys… Sam would NEVER badmouth Kamala Harris just because his household income is closely tied to the Facebook platform that openly supported Trump.
I’m sure a Dartmouth grad just wasn’t bright enough to know Kamala Harris’ headphone choice wasn’t crucial news.
