one takeaway from the grok noncon porn thing is that much of the media just isn't interested in an issue they can't pretend has two sides or that doesn't give them an opportunity to shit on the left. Also it would be uncomfortable to justify remaining on twitter after acknowledging it

not to go all identity politics but I think it’s also because the victims are women

over on Twitter I have been reliably assured by economists that a 75% marginal tax rate on zuck would have been bad because we would have missed out on groundbreaking innovation like this
“Meta has used back-to-school pictures of schoolgirls to advertise one of its social media platforms to a 37-year-old man, in a move parents described as “outrageous” and “upsetting.”
Meta has 100% stopped even *pretending* not to be astoundingly evil.

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

Feel free to continue arguing over the shooter's motives, but please understand that *it doesn't matter*.
There's a organized political movement that plans to suppress, arrest, or kill its political opposition. It it seeking pretexts. Anything will do. If it's not this, it'll be something else.

we’ve made it clear that anyone who visits the US could be disappeared into a Salvadoran prison but I’m sure it’s the kids and their avocado toasts who’re to blame

It is pretty noticeable that even as mainstream opinion on Israel and Gaza finally shifts, you don’t hear the Responsible Adults apologizing for punishing all the college kids protesting the atrocities. Quite the opposite in fact!

Trump, Miller, Noem et al are disappearing innocent people to a concentration camp to be tortured. They know this is what they're doing. Everyone who has touched this policy belongs in prison.
Those held at CECOT were forced to sleep on cold metal benches (mattresses were brought in for photo ops) and given a single water bucket for washing and drinking.
If anyone was seen washing themselves not at 4:00 AM, they were taken into a cell, tied to a chair, and beaten.

I almost can't believe that Elon Musk's AI called for the extermination of the Jewish people yesterday, and today not a single Congressional Democrat announced they were leaving his media network.
A party that often claims to act against antisemitism didn't do jack shit about straight up Nazism.

If it's not already a trademarked law of politics I am going to claim it: Effective opposition requires actually being opposed to what's happening.

It's just a violent military crackdown on peaceful protestors, not something serious like a magazine editor getting fired for being bad at editing.
"A society can't allow EVERYBODY to have free speech!" is a helluva take.
