#BikeNYC #YNWA Married father of 2 living in Brooklyn. I’m not a “cyclist” - we just use cargo e-bikes instead of cars since it’s much more convenient to get around with kids.

You didn't post the best one - he didn't screen cap or link to your posts since he doesn't want to be an asshole online - unlike you! Or more precisely, he accuses you of achieving sexual gratification by being an asshole online. He's like the final boss of Projection

I didn't link to it because unlike Stancil I don't get my jollies by encouraging my followers to hassle people I disagree with.

Right; but you're a nerd (me too). He's got our votes. He needs the votes of people who aren't so granular in the policy weeds. Do you not hear "support for Palestine protests" within his values that he expresses when he says we'll go after Bibi.
He will not prevail on extraditing Bibi to The Hague. I agree on that point. But there's a lot he could do if Bibi were to stray from conduct reasonably related to appearing at the UN.

The US is not obligated to recognize ICC warrants. But doesn't mean a jurisdiction is forbidden from doing so.
It's less about Palestine and more about the political opportunity left by the void by so few willing to express these formerly traif/verbotten positions. And people like it when pols express power I'm sorry to say. "Why won't someone do something". Well I will. Indicted by The Hague isn't obscure.
But he doesn't want to lean in on police reform as it's a trap rhetorically. Yet he's sticking by his plan to get cops to stop doing social work and Rodney Harrison and Issa Abbasi are on his short list for Commissioner, who each have reform reputations (and even some NYPD buy-in).
It's politics! He's conveying his values in a space where few others go. Allowing himself to make clear contrast from other pols while being (directionally, if not procedurally) correct on the merits.
Barro has some decent takes. Even Ben does too (even if he's much more of a reactionary than a leftist). But there's nothing redeemable about Meghan. She could be replaced by a chatbot.

People are shockingly good at visually distinguishing males from females, even when you choose relatively androgynous models, and even when you strip visual cues like hair. So experts think she likely has 5ARD or partial androgen insensitivity syndrome because she has a distinctly male appearance that requires both high levels of circulating testosterone, and the ability to process testosterone, to produce. Add that to the reports that she tested XY and had elevated T and people are able to make a pretty educated guess about the underlying disorder.
We don't have the capability! You see PANYNJ. That's just 2 stakeholders. Here, we ostensibly have up to 4 railroads, managed by 3 authorities; and at least 2 of the authorities, go berserk from time to time and attack their core mission.
I'm reading it now. The Ross Perot stuff is hilarious. Bet he could've gotten the Israeli hostages back sooner! What a nut.
Foxboro is closer to Rhode Island then it is to Boston.
Love the asymmetry of surmising the truth of his post with a paraphrase and refuse to credit his other posts for context - at the end - of a long multiple post thread! In which you don't include the actual post or a link to it!
I literally see no quotes of his actual post in this thread from you. Nor was it in your original thread! bsky.app/profile/angu...
Seeing people say that "by the numbers" Stancil is right about No Kings being bigger than the civil rights mvt. But no. That's not how any of this works.

It's like saying I'm a bigger organizer than Greta Thunberg because I'm taller. It's not technically true, it's just stupid.
Well you're making strawman arguments about what Will didn't say or try to prove so it feels dishonest to engage with those arguments.
Just because you identify on the left, doesn't mean you're incapable of acting like a reactionary. Which you're doing here. JFC - his point was basic AF! And you're like, this dumb motherfucker. Excellent pedagogy sir.
I mean Stancil may be technically correct that a significantly greater % of the population is involved. But have you considered, that I've lost my bearings from negative polarization such that I unironically post shit like this without experiencing shame. bsky.app/profile/angu...
Go ask any historian what it means for one social movement to be "bigger" than another. Any fucking historian. If they tell you, without you prompting them or coaching them, that the one true measure is how many people show up for marches in connection with that movement, I will eat my hat.
Right. But ask the historians and they'll tell you that the size of the movement isn't the most important factor. bsky.app/profile/angu...

See this all the time in UK soccer coverage. They so frequently will refer to players like that. "The Ivorian with a great finish".
Emmy squared by us. And Wonder has a brand too.
I'd just want to disappear if I ever had something like this attached to my writing. Yah, she knows how to build movements.
Editors note attached to Talia's article where she laughs off antisemitism expressed by her radical activist friends. 

Though there remains considerable dispute over the role of antisemitism when discussed in the context of anti-Zionism, we understand that many fair-minded people believe that the incidents described in this article were antisemitic. The article does not address these issues with the sensitivity and nuance that this subject requires.
I fucking hate these Nazis and I'm exciting to take my kids to a protest as this is the way we can tell Trump that we reject his ass. And this fucking [_______] says we're engaging in superficial activism. She can go F herself.
She regularly exercises terrible judgement and she has no solidarity. I get you like her and she has good intentions but her model of change sucks. She repels normies like me. Opposing genocide doesn't require opposing gentrification or brunch. She gatekeeps.
Another test:

Nothing short of a massacre and entirely preventable. An elderly male driver put his car in reverse and slammed on the gas, striking three people who were on the sidewalk, killing one and sending the other two to hospitals. Why is an old man driving an SUV anyway??
