It’s pretty wild that the local police union president has been telling national outlets that we need the national guard in Portland & sympathizing with federal agents kidnapping our neighbors but no local outlets feel like that is newsworthy.

Death By Lightning halfway point check-in:
-They threw quite a modern sensibility on it. Chester Arthur responding to Guiteau sympathizing with him by saying "Right?" is a good example.
-Matthew MacFadyen is absolutely killing it. (I guess that's a pun, I mean he's stealing the show)

Handing out blocks like infinity stones! Sympathizing with someone who could do what that man did is INEXCUSABLE. I’m not trying to hear all that BS! there is no justification for that in the world! Anyone else wanna try it you will end up with the same fate!! 🙅🏻‍♀️🚫💅🏻

it is incredible, in the literal sense of the word, to be working at the heritage foundation in 2025 and have qualms about nazi sympathizing. it's like working at facebook and worrying about the sustainability of journalism, or working at amazon and fretting about the decline of labor unions.

Man, this is good.
Beneath its humdrum requests, every email said more or less the same thing: Can you explain how reading certain things can turn a person into a socialist—and, possibly, a terrorist-sympathizing antisemite? It’s a storied gambit of the right at its most grimly predictable. “People read Foucault,” the redoubtable David Brooks once wrote, in an actual column that I’ve all but committed to memory, “and develop an alienated view of the world.” God, did I love this. An “alienated view of the world”! Not by, like, trying to pay rent or having an insurance claim denied—no, no, it was probably the Foucault you read in 2003. Anyway, it was clearly time to get the elaborate machinery of manufactured bewilderment and sour indignation up and running again.

you know what i even love when strangers tell me the sad things and hardships they are facing because sympathizing with one another and sharing our grief is so vital to the human experience. sometimes you just need a kind ear and too few people want to be that

could you explain? it sounds like the comment is accusing me of sympathizing with kim jong un's & trump's familes in the event of their hypothetical death, when my point was the exact opposite (i.e. we should not do that). am i misunderstanding something? i feel like i'm misunderstanding something

No one believes that Starscream is a good or misunderstood person. No one is saying that. And if they are, it’s not the majority of his fans.

I’ll never understand this fandom conflating sympathizing with woobifying or justifying.

It’s a storied gambit of the right at its most grimly predictable. “People read Foucault,” the redoubtable David Brooks once wrote, in an actual column that I’ve all but committed to memory, “and develop an alienated view of the world.” God, did I love this. An “alienated view of the world”! Not by, like, trying to pay rent or having an insurance claim denied—no, no, it was probably the Foucault you read in 2003. Anyway, it was clearly time to get the elaborate machinery of manufactured bewilderment and sour indignation up and running again. For some time I’ve been saying that the storied choice between socialism and barbarism was made exquisitely clear a good many years ago in the United States, and both major parties chose barbarism. They are obviously and consequentially different barbarisms—one had reproductive freedom, vaccines, and trans health care in it, at least for a while—and I can tell you why I have sincerely preferred one to the other. But we oughtn’t to kid ourselves. From the perspective of a world of increasingly unimaginable maldistribution of resources, cascading ecological collapse, a genocide cheered on by a putatively liberal order, both are barbarisms. Mamdani seemed to me a small glimmering break in the wall of all that. In contexts not concerning the elite private colleges of New England and their decades-old conflicts and syllabi and on-campus squabbles, this mode of prestige media procedure matters absolutely and enormously, at scales difficult to tabulate. It’s not hard to call them all to mind: “Climate change is increasingly lethal, though critics say… it is not.” Or, “Israel is murdering journalists in Gaza at historically unprecedented rates, though critics say… it is not.” Or, “Trans people claim to be real, though critics say…” Every bit of this is disheartening on its face. But it’s actually worse than any first-blush irritation, that familiar annoyance that comes from encountering still another textbook exercise in witless triangulation. Because what this sort of reporting ultimately means is that if you have enough money to get somebody, anybody, to produce a white paper for you, which you can then put on some think-tank stationery? Then, my friend, you are ready to enter into the rushing current of elite reportage. For no matter how unhinged the position you’ve taken, or paid someone marginally credentialed to sketch out on your behalf—“Can Woman Think?: We Investigate,” “Is the Negro a Man: A Reconsideration”—that opinion will, by virtue of such provenance, possess all needed evidentiary gravity for the Times. And then some. (Only yesterday the Times ran this actual story, which is not parody.)
