Replying to

@nitinkhanna@mastodon.social Did you read the article? "I write this knowing full well that my own employer, The New Republic, continues to hawk its wares on Twitter. I didn’t previously bring this up with management, or even with TNR’s union, because, well, it’s awkward.... But we’ve reached a point where TNR’s reputation will suffer if it continues to do business with Elon Musk. We must leave."

@MeidasTouch@mstdn.social #Trump's #2024 campaign theme seems to be: "Ask not what your country can do for you, or what you can do for your country. Ask what you can do for meee."

Replying to

@mattsheffield@mastodon.social Left of center media (and voters) are also at a disadvantage because they are skeptical of cults and cult leaders, while the other side mindlessly join in. See, e.g., the depositions from the Alex Jones Infowars employees and reps in the Sandy Hook case.
