We used to call this stupidity. There were smart people and stupid people and we let the smart people do the things they were good at and the stupid people were taken care of and didn't need to worry about what the smart people were doing. But now we let the stupid people think they're smart.

the right used to blame video games on school shootings, they moved on to blaming being trans (???) for school shootings, once the hate cycle on trans people is over they’ll move on to blame something else that has nothing to do with school shootings

the absolute unmitigated gall to have lived through the past 8 months and your take on the current political climate is "democrats are the ones who sound insane"

Sarah Longwell @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social · Aug 22

Don't say "birthing person."
Don't say "incarcerated person."
Don't say "the unhoused."
Don't say "chest feeding."
Don't say "centering.
Don't say "Latinx."

When voters hear this, they think Democrats are out of touch crazy people. Just talk normal. Be normal.

Trump is a bigoted fascist operating at a third-grade reading level whose policies are completely incoherent. He believes in absolutely nothing but attention, wealth and power.

the closest the NYT can get to explaining this to readers is to proclaim "this isn't your grandpa's republican party"
