Wild that EA managed to find a buyer who cares about video game workers even less than EA.

I’m sure they’ll try stuff against civil-society groups and people if they find an opening, but the VP telling folks to call people’s bosses is sort of a tell that the fed govt. can’t lawfully or semi-lawfully do much here.

i say this about once every six months but that final A Tribe Called Quest record is truly extraordinary. could make a legitimate case that it is their best record, which by default makes it one of the greatest hip-hop albums of all time

It’s ok! It’s stuff I wish I didn’t know.

Oh 1000 yards is tough. At that point you need specific rifles, measure the wind gauge, etc.

Edward Doty @edwarddoty.bsky.social · 27d

So as someone who is former Army…it’s not THAT hard. You definitely need training, but most place the estimate at 200 yards, and Basic Training mandates a minimum of 2 shots from 300 yards.

A former soldier or even just a trained civilian could strike a seated target at that distance.

I'm horrified to hear that Charlie Kirk was shot at an event in Utah.

Democratic societies will always have political disagreements, but we must never allow America to become a country that confronts those disagreements with violence.

Mark and I are praying for Charlie's recovery.

Political violence is always immoral and always counterproductive for a healthy democracy. It solves nothing. It only leads to further violence and ultimately enables scapegoating of vulnerable communities. Committing acts of violence against those who disagree with us helps no one.

Political violence disproportionately hurts people with less power, not people with more power. Political violence will disproportionately hurt people of color and women and LGBTQ people. It’s not fair, but that’s the way it works. Celebrating political violence means at best indifference to that.

Nicholas Grossman @nicholasgrossman.bsky.social · 28d

Political violence is bad. It usually begets more political violence.

Celebrating political violence is bad. It usually encourages more political violence, against various targets.

Campus shootings are bad. They make everyone on campus less safe.

It's bad that what I wrote here is controversial.

It’s not simply important to denounce political violence because it looks bad not to. It’s the right thing to do on the merits. Even more specifically to this moment it’s important because the forces of fascism are inherently better at political violence than the forces of civic democracy.
