Washington Post dismantled the platform Jamal wrote on. Discarded the fellowship they created in his memory.
They fired me unjustly for speaking the truth.
But I’ll never stop talking about my friend, writer, and amazing human, Jamal Khashoggi.
RIP, Jamal.

I am having a hard time reconciling "Charlie Kirk was a fierce advocate of open dialogue and free expression" with "we must identify and persecute everyone who is insufficiently mournful"
After Charlie Kirk's death, teachers and professors nationwide fired or disciplined over social media posts
At least a dozen faculty and staff have faced fallout over insensitive comments online.

People missing an important point about folks getting fired for whatever they said about Charlie Kirk: Americans are being conditioned to be snitches on their fellow citizens who don’t toe a party line on what is “allowed” to be expressed. And employers are going along. It’s the new secret police

Remember, it’s okay for
radio, cable, local news, newspapers, podcasts, youtube, facebook, and twitter to be right wing echo chambers.
But IT IS NOT OKAY for a new app that’s starting to gain traction to be a left wing echo chamber.

Many commentators say that vigilante groups are never the answer. But they clearly don't know about the masked Ecuadorian trio named “Acción Ortográfica Quito,” who roam the streets at night with a singular purpose: to correct all the spelling and grammar mistakes they find in graffiti.
