Q: Do you think it would've been fitting to lower the flags to half staff when Melissa Hortman, the Minnesota House Speaker, was gunned down by an assassin?

Since it seems a lot of people have some strong opinions about the taboo of speaking ill of the dead, I'm going to do a little light reading for some more enlightenment on the subject.

While I'm not naive enough to assume each generation becomes more progressive than the last, it's still jarring and unnerving to hear decades-old misogyny and racism from people younger than I am.
How tf are you born in 2003 and believing women should only stay at home, cook, clean, and raise kids?

"A.I. is the future."
Uh-huh. 🙄 Imagine some guy in the 1930s saying dirigibles are the future of passenger travel. We had electric cars in the 1890s and the first steam engines 2,000 years ago.
Someone saying "this new technology is the future" doesn't mean it's guaranteed to be the future.

I've known about the U.S. atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki since I was a kid, but I was today years old when I found out the name of the aircraft that photographed the bombings was - not even joking - "Necessary Evil."

It’s impossible to overstate the degree to which the MAGA Right is rooted in grievances & victimology.
I doubt Elon Musk could point to any real examples of “the relentless propaganda portraying white men as the worst human beings.”
A supposedly offending op-ed here or there doesn’t count.

Being a leftist and knowing the communists helped the Nazis in 1932 because they hated liberals and moderates more is why I have trust issues.

The MAGA movement is focused on touting only the exceptional parts of our past “because having to look too closely at the disturbing parts of American history would mean having to look closely at the disturbing parts of themselves,” Clint Smith argues:
