Something I'm a pedantic stickler about: there was no Victorian America and there are no American Victorians. You're probably looking for the word antebellum, gilded age, or progressive era. Or just plain old 19th century

One of my favorite takes on this website by the Ball Knowers was that the year plus of cracking down on anti-genocide youth movements in this country, on campuses and otherwise, had no effects whatsoever on turnouts come November nor in general for mobilization etc. Goldfish levels of myopia.
I think @brendannyhan.bsky.social is exactly right in this piece, but I’d go one step further here. Elites very explicitly told young people to sit down and shut up. Society punished them for standing up for their beliefs, and targeted and vilified the organizers. Now we need need them.

Ryan Lizza is playing the role of Haters’ Santa for me right now which makes sense because Santa is definitely Olivia Nuzzi’s type (several hundred years old, still owns slaves)
Feels like Christmas has really come early for the haters this year but I think they can still give us even more

The Zohran press conference is your regular reminder that the entire administration folds like tissue paper at the slightest hint of confidence and conviction, and thus the fact that national democrats are playing a game of capitulation and weakness is exactly why they're all getting away with it
