or that it's too much like a frat house. I've worked at tons of companies that have a "bro culture" and even company Happy Hour and you cannot in fact win a lawsuit based on that

Trying to imagine a workplace lawsuit based on the idea that it's too much like a Montessori school:
- my boss doesn't supervise me enough
- my emotions are too respected
- I shouldn't be expected to problem-solve or collaborate
- need more formal reviews

i've said before one of the weird things about History is everyone acknowledges that genocidal racists who whole heartedly supported genocidal policy existed in significant numbers in the US in the 40s, the 60s, the 80s; but uhh they don't today, they all went back to their home planet

I vaguely understood the climate change stuff, as the profit motive from fossil fuel industries was just so strong. The antivax stuff, I didn’t see coming, and it kind of broke me. We’re just throwing away an unalloyed good because people are bored

when I was in high school in 1999 a classmate got a car for his 18th birthday and someone said "that car costs more than my house" and the first kid rolled his eyes and said "no it doesn't, you can't get a house for under $200,000"

remembering when it was a year long scandal when the IRS told explicitly conservative nonprofits they couldn't register as nonpolitical nonprofits, and then it turned out they did that to liberal nonprofits too, Issa was just lying about it

oh my god??

every analysis of every conservative "study" begins with "this has a bunch of serious methodological errors" and ends with "oh the underlying data used is just horseshit"

6. Data scientist Jacob Eliason was the first to spot it: Kaufmann had run his analysis using the raw survey responses rather than applying the weighting provided by FIRE. Without weighting, the data dramatically misrepresented the population—and created the illusion of a drop where none existed.

with that definition in mind, when people bemoan that don’t have a strong sane/reasonable/good conservative party/viewpoint in politics, honest question, how would this “good conservative” significantly differ from biden, harris, schumer, and pelosi? kinda gives the game away on Will’s view of 1-3

like what does it take for a politician to be “reasonable”? i’d say a good litmus test is:
1) not Qanon/conspiracy adjacent
2) not an anti-gay/anti-trans/anti-black/anti-woman activist
3) not an abolish the EPA/preemptively nuke iran/dumbass crank. (1/2)

and in fact i think people underestimate how long this has been the case. thinking of the 2012 election when there was a notable crack on Fox on air when reality and their walled off alternate reality refused to meet
