Let me be as clear as humanly possible: there is no version of a healthy democracy—or a healthy political party, or a healthy media environment, or a healthy moral compass—where defending, excusing, or platforming Nick Fuentes is acceptable.
Enough. Absolutely Enough.
Platforming antisemites is fine—if they flatter convicted felon Trump. Everything else? Dangerous.

It has always been so obvious that the backlash to MeToo isn’t about whether the abuse is happening but whether people are allowed to want it to stop

You mean the company that's currently being struck by its workers and the company that's currently being boycotted because of its terrible DEI policy rollbacks? Why not just call this the Chocolate Mint Racist Scab Frostie?
Beginning Monday, a Frozen Peppermint Hot Chocolate drink will be available exclusively at Starbucks cafés inside Target stores.
The chains are hoping the drink can drum up excitement from customers this holiday season.

i'd say it did. the public put a group of thieves, vandals and extremists in office last november and they promptly went about destroying everything that might work to limit their ability to loot, steal and inflicting pain on the people they hate
This whole NYT account about the weaponization of DOJ is beyond disturbing. Kinda feels like the US government fell in January.

At risk of stating the obvious, the "economics mentor" highlight distracts from what he immediately says next.
He is going to "cut off contact."
Which is to say he is withdrawing professional support because she declined to fuck him.

The emails have Summers reporting to Epstein about his attempts to date a Harvard economics student & to hit on her during a seminar she was giving.

Paul Ingrassia said he had a “Nazi streak.” Trump should have immediately condemned Ingrassia’s rhetoric and fired him from the White House.
Instead, Trump offered Ingrassia a new job.
For Trump, extremism is a positive – not a disqualifier.
