This is my regular reminder to everyone that jstor is open to the general public now; a free account there will give you access to 100 papers a year.

Every state that doesn't ascribe to fascism should pass a version of this bill. If I have to show my papers to the Gestapo, the Gestapo needs to show me their face and their badge number.

I don’t know man I think pointing to the fact you ought to know better makes you look worse, not better.

Particularly since you are unwilling to take any responsibility for what you posted.

Truly incredible as a defense for not getting his facts straight first.

It’s literally on a Groyper playlist on Spotify! Do some research come on.

But you could be right and if he would apologize and acknowledge his mistake then I might agree with you. He refuses to do so though

He could do even the tiniest bit of asking about the facts and he would have found out that’s a videogame reference not an antifa one. You know, journalism.

What would it take for you to say you made a mistake? You realize everyone can see that you did right? But yet you keep acting like this

This is just a lie at this point why have you left this up?

hi friends! It's almost the weekend. Have you planned something fun offline? It could be reading a book, taking a long walk, going to a museum, seeing a friend, doing a craft, or cooking an elaborate meal. If you are sad, try not to be sad alone. And if you can, charge your phone away from your bed.

I suspect your bosses are happy with what you did so I doubt you’ll have to deal with either. I would be happy to be wrong!

As for which is appropriate- are you willing to actually admit your mistake and apologize and take responsibility or not? That makes a big difference usually.

Yeah but that’s just how the right wing behaves, look at the very story you are trying to report on! It certainly doesn’t say anything about your politics or who you cover for.

Are you claiming that no one can say someone is bad at their job because that constitutes abuse? What is abusive about that?

Heath ledgerβ€˜s joker delivering the β€œeverybody loses their minds” monologue

You know what I've noticed? Nobody panics when things go "according to plan." Even if the plan is horrifying! If two state lawmakers in MN get killed, nobody panics, because anti-Dem violence is normalized. But one GOP podcaster gets shot, well then everyone loses their minds.

This is how I found out they made an arrest and that he was a white guy all at once

He was blaming the β€œleft” yesterday too, so how is he not doing a terrible job?

Hey you blamed the left without evidence too, going to apologize or even acknowledge that?

Oh now that it’s not a trans person or a Democrat you have no idea why he did it?

No that’s not how it works in the US, the campaigns start well before the conventions! We had primaries! He was running!

I’m not sure he does

Do you think an immigration lawyer isn’t familiar with the emails that the government sends out?

Historian here:

β€œTo announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.”

oh i think someone else already noticed or said a version of this -- everything trump sells is a scam, so he assumes everyone selling anything is scamming people

You do not have to pretend the Union and Confederacy were on equal footing because they both shot Americans.

Good intentions alone can't justify everything. And they can be their own danger. But it's so much worse when we stop demanding people demonstrate good intent!
