History will recall that the New York Times, that bastion of "the liberal media," on July 4, 2024 chose to give prime space on their op-ed page to a theocratic absolutist who argued that people shouldn't vote, even though he himself has voted in the last 2 elections (but nowhere is that mentioned).

I'll bet it wouldn't take a lot of prying or arm-twisting to get him to admit he's just trying to discourage anyone to the left of him from voting. These people have been pretty open and boastful about what they're up to, especially in the past week or so.

Remember when someone «progressive» here made the same point here, and the whole Anglophone left defended their right to be awful?

I especially liked this part from the (voting) hypocrite on not voting: “My indifference is, among other things, a reflection of my view that the real problems in American life are deep-seated and structural.” Why. Do. You. Think. That. Is.

The NYT and GOP be damned. No matter who wins the election, I won't be ruled or be made to yield.

This is the most insidious arm of the Trump campaign. This type of article is designed to usher in the autocracy. It breaks my heart that in this century we're fighting a battle that seems asymmetric. Is this the battle we lose? Is this a chapter in winning against fascism? The stress is terrible..

They're pulling out all the stops. I think despite all the senility stuff they're getting scared. They're seeing Democrats energized and that's the one thing they can't compete with. Their math is reductionist - they don't add, they just gin up what they've got.

Also the byline willfully misleads people about who Walther is, he’s a failed pundit who got some sort of sinecure at a Catholic magazine from typical right wing elder abuse fundraising, but he’s a politic activist and has been his entire career
