Every time something like the GOP chat leak occurs I hear smart people arguing that shame could be a useful tactic. But shame only works if the bad actors think their actions are bad. Hypocrisy, shame, these Victorian-ish norms are just that, norms, guardrails, and they don't work against fascism.

Incredible scenes.

Thompson, 43, said federal agents had just exited the fortified facility and appeared to be chasing a protester when the protester and officer collided with band members, most of whom were wearing banana costumes.

Apparently, the official GOP response to the leaked Young Republican chats is “come on, it’s not a big deal that these guys are using racial slurs and praising Hitler, that’s totally normal” and, uh, that sorta raises more questions?

“Kavanaugh stop” is a great phrase. Evocative, critical, memorable, and on point.

The internet tells me the term was coined and popularized by @akalhan.bsky.social and @sifill.bsky.social. A big hat tip to them.

JD Vance doth protest too much about group chats where Republican staffers are “just joking” about putting people they don’t like in gas chambers.

“How do you do, fellow kids” meme, except it’s JD Vance saying “how do you do, fellow internet Nazis.”
