This framing is so dishonest. It wasn’t “try harder to get a comment from the Administration.” Weiss believes The White House refusing to comment on the record should serve as an effective veto of any story critical of the White House. An obviously untenable journalistic standard.
The Bari Weiss hysteria continues. Exactly what in "this piece isn't ready" and "try harder to get comment from the administration" constitutes the death of American journalism? www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2025/1...

occurs to me that we might be getting the "there's a problem of lonely males with no friends or romantic partners" and "there's a lucrative industry of toxic male influencers who tell young men to act like assholes" causation arrow backwards

Democratic politicians need to stop accepting Trump’s white nationalist premise that immigration is bad and proudly and loudly make a positive case for why America’s identity and history as a nation of immigrants is so important.

My favorite articles in the “world’s most trusted newspaper” are the ones where I have to guess if the writer is lying or if they are a fucking idiot
The Nuzzi piece is an excellent realtime test of whether Bluesky can recognise an ironic writing style.

No matter how hard people try to convince us having empathy is wrong,
it is right.

it is a strength.
No matter how hard people try to convince us that love is limited,
it is unlimited.

You should check your ears for signs of a brain leak.
🧲 We’re seeing the horseshoe event horizon when the lefties cheering on China because they see it as a counterforce against the US align with the Silicon Valley tech titans high on China as an advanced Sino-topian techno-surveillance state.

Just spitballing here, but cryptobros throwing sex toys at WNBA players on the court and other cryptobros and male sports commentators calling it funny and telling the women and their coaches to 'lighten up' both explains the 'male loneliness epidemic' and why I don't care about it.

The most annoying form of complacency is complacency disguised as strategy. This post sets up this totally false dilemma where attacking Trump on Epstein will strengthen him on tariffs or whatever. All of political history proves that unpopularity doesn’t work like that.
The Esptein thing is a thing…sort of.
But not really.
So let’s play this out. Let’s say somehow the entire file is released and TACO is all over the place (yes, I know he will never allow that).
But let’s say it does and he is.
Then what? Will he be impeached? HELL NO!
