My main takeaway is not so much how it demonstrates that they know they're full of shit, because we already know that.
My main takeaway is how easy it is to catch them with the simplest follow-up, and how obvious this makes it that they're not used to being asked basic journalistic questions.

Please share this widely. There have been 13 peer-reviewed critiques of the Cass Review, to the extent that academia regards it as pseudoscience, but so far all have been subject to organised censorship by mainstream media. This is the first time one has broken through. Oz Guardian only still.
Worked hard to get this into Guardian Oz & big props to @fiercemum.bsky.social for setting it up & Melissa Davey for publishing it. She will doubtless get loads of hassle from transphobes for it, but it needs to be out there.

The problem with this piece, like all the other pieces, is that the missing hed, dek, & lede is that all of this was wildly illegal, unconstitutional, & criminal. This is how you normalize lawless authoritarianism - treat like just another story in our politics. “Transformation” is lazy euphemism.
This WaPo piece weaves together an incredibly powerful story about the way Trump has devastated government and the dedicated people who wake up every day to serve the public. wapo.st/4b14KAy

Yes, AND Bill Clinton is a creep who should have no place in the Democratic Party or any position of power and influence.
The wide ranging disclosures of documents involving Bill Clinton should put to rest any arguments by the DOJ that they can’t release docs involving people under investigation, since Clinton is one of the figures whom Bondi, kissing up to Trump, ordered be the subject of a new investigation.

How the nyt used the Cass report to restart its anti-trans propaganda campaign in the US:
Coverage of the report was initially assigned to a nyt UK correspondent, usual practice for a UK report. The story being prepared cited critics who called Cass a shoddy, political document that defied science

One reason the NYT has burned its credibility with trans people is that they still cite the discredited Cass report in reporting on trans healthcare. Never the German, Utah, or other systematic reviews supporting care. They also never provide the political context behind restrictions in care.

What absolutely will not work is telling other people to stop talking about politics in ways that hurt your chances of winning.
That's not political persuasion, it's laying the ground for who to blame after losing. Loser stuff, in other words.

The goal of organizing is not to convince your opponent. The goal of organizing is to defeat your opponent.
IMO it's hard to combat the dangerousness of the right by participating in a platform where they aren't present.
I think the best way to explain the X vs Bluesky preference is whether a person thinks the left is more annoying than the right is dangerous.
The reason so many Noah Smiths end up on the X side of that equation is that while the left annoys them personally, the right mostly endangers other people.

I think it's really cool that we have democratic leadership that is largely silent about this issue. A leadership that believes making a "tsk tsk" press release once every month counts as a form of political opposition while otherwise dropping the issue in its entirety.

The guy who offered a bounty to anyone who could provide proof of Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio eating dogs -- and then offered as evidence a video of Congolese immigrants in Dayton, Ohio eating chicken -- has opinions about the right's "conspiracy, psychodrama, and tabloid conflicts."
It's wild how Chris Rufo openly talks about his own followers like they are the dumbest, most contemptible people alive. Which, fair!
But it says a lot about MAGA psychology that they don't seem to mind.
