Why the WashPost, WSJ, and NYT all hate Mamdani. Excellent piece from @hamiltonnolan.bsky.social. www.cjr.org/analysis/leg...

Pluralistic: There’s one thing EVERY government can do to shrink Big Tech (01 Nov 2025) – Pluralistic: Daily links from Cory Doctorow

β€œgetting rid of anticircumvention laws only requires…govts control their own behaviorβ€”unlike taxing or fining companies, which only works if govts can control the behavior of companies that have proven…to be more powerful than any country in the world.” ~Cory Doctorow pluralistic.net/2025/11/01/r...

I'm sure there are other examples, but letting Mark Thiessen anywhere near your newspaper is foreshadowing.

The energy we need is this suburban dad standing out in the street -- barefoot with Blackhawks pajama pants on -- screaming at the masked goons to get the fuck out of their neighborhood.

Those who'd sneer at outrage over the White House fancy themselves slick. Ears to the ground. They don't concern themselves with frippery when there's a war to be won. Well they don't know a goddamn thing. Symbols are powerful, and politics is a game of using them to your advantage.

There's a world where a president whose term overlaps with the 250th anniversary of independence announces that he wants a WH extension to celebrate. He goes to Congress and gets bipartisan buy-in. Maybe it's part of other big 250th projects with public-private funding. And it's popular. (1/2)

They didn't have a mandate for anything they've done with the narrow victory he had. They had the votes when voting was a thing.

This is genuinely gut-wrenching. Anyone associated w this structure knows the endless ranks of people, over the decades, who have treated the structure and surroundings w respectβ€”since they were symbols for traditions of America as a whole

Too apt a metaphor for Trump and US institutions overall
