Lol Trump’s biggest vulnerability of the entire campaign is literally peaking and Democrats are wasting the moment fighting their own president. Sincerely, what are you guys doing

CNN reporter Eva McKend spent the day at the Alpha Kappa Alpha convention in Dallas, where VP Kamala Harris spoke, and was hard-pressed to find a single Black voter, even among Harris mega-fans, who thought it was a good idea to push President Biden off the ticket. 🧵: x.com/evamckend/st...

I have no idea the best path re Biden but I do know a solid week straight of “Biden Old” and “Rich Dems Worried” above-the-fold stories are *obscene* in the face of SCOTUS using the Constitution to wipe their asses purely in the service of reinstating a felon rapist as president. Crazy-making shit.

The many manifestations of racism — slavery, segregation, etc — were an integral part of not just African American history, but American history. Denying that reality and pretending racism wasn’t a serious problem is, in itself, racist.

That's not to say there's not a Democrat who can't beat our media ecosystem, as well as the Republican party. Biden did it 4 years ago. But if you think the political environment will get easier instead of harder if Biden quits, put down your phone and go touch some fucking grass.

then regulators should (a) use antitrust powers against them and (b) open up the market so there's more small banks. Like, fuck em, if they want to go to war with USG, USG can take them.

Have you seen how over in X people are going wild responding to suspected bot accounts with a command that reprograms it? I looked over about a hundred of these replies and most don’t work. This first 2 are only one I found that did. In both cases I’d already blocked that account.

WBD's stock price has tanked ~78% since David Zaslav was announced as CEO— $32.68 on 05/19/21 to $7.32, today— to say nothing of the brand loyalty, goodwill, & creative talent he's destroyed. It is amazing & genuinely horrifying that anyone could fail this badly, & remain in a position of authority

Without even clicking the link, I’ll guess the reason — all the talk of racism makes white kids feel guilty. Again, if your kids are reading histories of slavery or segregation and identifying with the racists in the story, that suggests you’ve got your own problems to work through. Leave us out.

The pretense is always that learning about the history of racism will make (or is even MEANT to make) white kids feel guilty, which is just not how normal people react to things that happened before they were born. What they’re really afraid of is that it will make them feel outraged.

When polls are saying Biden is up five in Michigan but New York is a battleground and Trump has 40% of the African American vote but Biden has 60% of the elderly, idk man polls are fucked some sort of way. Maybe Biden loses a historic landslide or he’s up by 5 but they’re fucked some sort of way

1. The outside world hasn't a single clue about how content moderation actually works. That's the fault of the folks covering this space, various lobbyists and external groups, and the companies themselves. It's not that deep. Content moderation is extremely challenging.
