A cool thing ugly nerds is that we know how to read. You didn’t even read the piece you googled, champ, which is a debunking of the point you raised! I appreciate you illustrating that any kind of politics can attract the kind of person whose only motivation is being shitty to other people.

There is no position taken by conservative nutjobs on social media, no matter how much it contradicts even right wing precedent, that Alito will not try to make respectable www.nytimes.com/2024/06/26/u...

Describing Christian Nationalism as simply “Christian” is a baffling editorial choice but certainly one Christian Nationalists would approve of

Today in there’s nothing new under the sun: In 1903 a white hotel worker became a right wing celebrity for being fired after refusing to make booker t washington’s bed because he was black and a bunch of people around the country raised thousands of dollars on her behalf

Because I’m very slow, the NYT coverage of Trump baffled me until I realized they quite simply want him to win.

Pew Center is reassessing a phrase it used in reporting poll results showing many Black people believe news media is designed to hold them back. Pew used term "racial conspiracy theories," but that implies they are not true, when history shows otherwise. loom.ly/z_QX79I

Yeah if you’re the Supreme Court you just do this

The current cowardly establishment take is that the nyc trial of Trump was unserious and the only legitimate things to try Trump for just happen to involve getting past the veto of federalist society stooges who would support a violent overthrow of the government if it meant putting Trump in power.

This is pretty interesting, I knew next to nothing about Mexico’s Jewish community www.nytimes.com/2024/06/03/w...

Benne really pissed off Eggsy this morning and I captured the exact moment he realized it was a bad idea

Trump and his supporters are not angry that the Manhattan trial was “rigged.” They’re angry that it wasn’t. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Prosecuting al capone for tax evasion was good actually

I used to think these dark, infinite manifestations of void and oblivion were one cat but they are brothers (they are very sweet and love to chat)

It’s funny that he was like yeah, I’ll keep going with this www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Alito lied about the reason the flag was up because he didn’t know the couple had text messages establishing the date of when the incident took place. They were supporting the insurrection. www.nytimes.com/2024/05/28/u...

This is the kind of shit I was talking about when I described the culture of supreme court reporting being one of extraordinary deference to the justices www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Killing a lib or a commie and getting away with it is a fantasy sold to the right by the gun industry, which also demands the law be shaped to make that fantasy a reality should someone choose to commit murder www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv... bsky.app/profile/adam...

Republicans believe it is not a crime to murder people for political reasons as long as those people are not conservative, and when the law fails to exonerate them their elected officials intervene. www.texastribune.org/2024/05/16/d...

For years, the right wing justices have seen many things—union organizing, environmental regulations, voting rights—as harbingers of tyranny. But a legal theory that would lead to actual tyranny didn’t sound so bad to them. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...
