An extraordinary and wonderfully written account of quarantining in Taiwan (hat tip MR) https://t.co/0mE9JfX93d But I am confused by the author's praise for a hugely onerous process that he recognized to be ineffective and untenable. — PolitiTweet.org

China has citywide lockdowns and an ethnic minority in concentration camps. Russia invaded a sovereign country where it is murdering people and putting them in mass graves. And the New Right, surveying the world, imagines that liberalism is the root of our problems. Sad! — PolitiTweet.org

@ijbailey @JeffreyASachs @sullydish You seem to be disagreeing with me but to ultimately be upset with Rufo, which I am fine with. Go be angry at him with my blessing. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@ijbailey @JeffreyASachs @sullydish What do you mean "now" I object to it? I've published articles about my objections and you and I have discussed them multiple times. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@ijbailey I'm not sure why the genesis of the word games is important to my point. You are often focused on where blame should be cast. I seldom care about that, preferring instead to work toward analytic clarity. — PolitiTweet.org

Taking nominations for this week's Question of the Week. What do you want readers of Up for Debate to answer? — PolitiTweet.org

When I read the Compact Mag sentence, "Cultural liberalism is perfectly compatible with and is, indeed, the handmaiden of capital,” my first thought is that this metaphor rather overestimates the familiarity of the contemporary reader with handmaidens. — PolitiTweet.org

@JeffreyASachs @sullydish Come on, man. You can't introduce a tremendously loaded word into a survey and assume people are rigorously applying a different definition rather than the way they usually understand the loaded word. — PolitiTweet.org

@knowerofsecrets Do you think *that's* what Margaret Atwood was hankering for when she signed the Harper's letter? Salman Rushdie? Michelle Goldberg? It's preposterous. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@knowerofsecrets If you are unable to understand what people can't say that they want to you should refrain from characterizing them as just wanting to say slurs until you can understand what they actually mean. That isn't it! — PolitiTweet.org

@hoomhum the ability to do so constructively is constrained from multiple directions. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@hoomhum The underlying issue is *How should race be taught in schools?* And there is no clear answer. There are thoughtful objections to most any approach one could devise. (And unthoughtful objections too.) Raising these objections is a legitimate part of deliberative democracy, but — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@hoomhum IMHO this conversation would be a lot better if we stopped using the words CRT because they just confuse things. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@ijbailey Other people are objecting to Robin DiAngelo style race essentialism, which is not a paradigmatic feature of CRT, just something that manifests in some CRT but not in other CRT. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@ijbailey Some people are objecting to a real feature of actual CRT: its rejection of the liberal approach to antiracism that prevailed during the civil rights era. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@ijbailey There is no one simple answer because different people are objecting to different things, some of which are CRT and some of which aren't. For example: — PolitiTweet.org

@Sebastian_Hols @JeffreyASachs @peefsmash I'm surprised by this too. If your account would leave observers mystified as to why HLG was a critic of CRT you've failed in your account. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@JeffreyASachs @peefsmash A good definition of CRT would capture that it is trying to cast the liberal approach that prevailed during the civil rights era as inadequate and to replace it — PolitiTweet.org

@hoomhum Oh, I was commenting on Walter's thread, not the Powerline analysis, which I do not recommend. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
The vast majority of Americans are, thankfully and properly, supportive of teaching "the legacy of slavery and racism and how this history impacts our laws, institutions, and society to this day." When they object to "CRT" that is not what they are talking about. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
These word games are so frustrating. That is not "a brief definition of CRT". Thomas Sowell (say) has written about "the legacy of slavery and racism and how this history impacts our laws, institutions, and society to this day." No one thinks his work is CRT. — PolitiTweet.org
