Apparently I was a monster for suggesting that Gavin still sucks
The best way to honor Charlie's memory is to continue his work: engage with each other, across ideology, through spirited discourse. In a democracy, ideas are tested through words and good-faith debate — never through violence.

The number of people who told me last year that ‘it can’t get any worse for Gaza.’
But it always could get worse, things can always get worse- and they have.
We are now witnessing an official, full-blown, US-approved famine in Gaza.
Shameful.

Mayor Pete, what can you say about Israel's ongoing assassination of journalists?
Pete Buttigieg: I think that that's a profound question that arouses a lot of the biggest problems that have happened with Israel's survival, Israel's right to survival, in the diplomatic scene.

Correct. Pete is off my list. Period.
If he’s already ceding ground to transphobes before announcing his 2028 candidacy, he’s only going to move further right through the primaries—and even more if he somehow makes it to the general.
And if you think, “it’s just sports,” or “no, this is an actual concern,” then you can fuck off.

Yeah, I'm never voting for Buttigieg even if he's the nominee. This is a bright line for me. You cave on trans issues and lend credence to bigots, it's over. I'm not letting the Dems go down the path of Labour.

Some of the younger Democrats (Slotkin, Elissa) are the most stuck in 1990s poll-centered blah-ism. And some of the party's oldest figures are doing multi-city tours and using the right language (oligarchy) for these times.
