GOP is nothing but Nazis and pedophiles and this asshole and plenty of other centrist Dems still think saying “we’re the weird ones and we need to stop being weird” is good politics
California Governor Gavin Newsom said on Thursday that the Democratic Party needed to be “more culturally normal” and “less judgmental.”

Supporting Supreme Court expansion is pretty close to a litmus test for me for a 2028 Democratic candidate.

There's this constant discourse about how "the left" (whoever that is) has to stop being condescending and speak directly to men's issues. But these gurus are, without fail, more condescending to men than any feminist or SJW I've ever met.

Every day I get angrier abt that wretched Harper’s Letter, and the broader feckless, bothsider-poisoned media environment that treated it as legit.
I’m profoundly disappointed in the left-leaning types who gave reputational cover to a nakedly bad-faith doc.
And furious at the on-going silence.

If anyone is curious about the current list of search terms being used by right wing activist organizations to harass university professors, here's a public records request I received today from Mike Howell of the Heritage Foundation. Not intimidating or meant to curtail by my speech at all, right?

Mass pardons are coming. There will be no accountability without treating those as null and void. And that means a future administration taking an official position that Trump is not the legitimate president right now because he is disqualified by the 14th Amendment. The two things are inextricable.

So much of this masculinity nonsense is just the fact that nobody ever told these fucking losers to their faces that they themselves are the problem. Jordan Peterson's appeal was that those guys themselves realized on some level that they were the problem and needed someone to tell them

Breaking News: Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said he personally instructed the CDC to abandon its position that vaccines do not cause autism. The move underscores his determination to challenge scientific orthodoxy — in this case, that vaccines save lives — and bend the health department to his will.

In an interview, Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. cited gaps in vaccine safety research. His critics say he is ignoring a larger point: Vaccines save lives.
