One of the things I always find telling is the idea that we have to judge past people by the standards of their time, as if the fact that they did bad things means that everyone thought it was okay. They didn't. Pretty much every obviously evil act had people saying that it was, in fact, bad.

I was in Portland last week, and didn't see the war.
But I did see an extraordinary collection of food trucks

Trump says he’s authorized Hegseth to use “Full Force” against Antifa in “War ravaged” Portland

At the request of Secretary of Homeland Security, Kristi Noem, I am directing Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth, to provide all necessary Troops to protect War ravaged Portland, and any of our ICE Facilities under siege from attack by Antifa, and other domestic terrorists. I am also authorizing Full Force, if necessary. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

I think having grandparents we remember who went through WWII was extremely helpful for us

1999 for me. I consider myself millennial, and I do think our generation has a firmer grasp on the realities of the world, past and present, for better or worse

In December, Rolling Stone kill a story of mine about groypers and Turning Point USA. Believe me, if I thought these things were connected in this shooting, I would be sitting here pitching that story to every media outlet, and not posting at you chucklefucks.

This **** is the worst, and just fans the flames gleefully

Nobody deserves to be killed for their words, no matter how much you agree/disagree.

I fear this is setting a match to a powder keg. Violence perpetuates violence. The rhetoric on social media is scary

It’s not simply important to denounce political violence because it looks bad not to. It’s the right thing to do on the merits. Even more specifically to this moment it’s important because the forces of fascism are inherently better at political violence than the forces of civic democracy.

Political violence is bad. It usually begets more political violence.

Celebrating political violence is bad. It usually encourages more political violence, against various targets.

Campus shootings are bad. They make everyone on campus less safe.

It's bad that what I wrote here is controversial.
