RT @BonesCrosby: @conor64 Kareem wrecking the Boston front line in the 1985 Finals at age 36 was impressive. There were three HoF’ers on th… — PolitiTweet.org

The Celtics teams that Kareem helped defeat were better than any team that Jordan's Bulls beat. — PolitiTweet.org

How can you be the GOAT if Kareem Abdul Jabbar has more points, rebounds, assists, and blocks than you, plus just as many championship rings and a better college career? — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@vpostrel Kareem has the same number of rings as MJ. He scored more points and was a value to his team for more years. He beats MJ in points, rebounds, assists (!), and blocks. Kareem easily had the better college career, too. — PolitiTweet.org

@johnpavlovitz there are ways in which I am a Covid hawk. But I think you are going about Covid hawkery in the wrong way. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@johnpavlovitz There are lots of medical problems you never talk about that kill lots of people, as if those deaths are baked in or you can't do much about them. I wonder if you've ever talked about the flu in the past? I'm interested in what makes Covid different, in your estimation. And FYI — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@johnpavlovitz I didn't say it was a "gotcha." I asked you to flesh out your thinking. No, no one is "protesting" heart health. But there's a multibillion dollar industry in advertising products that are bad for the heart. There are people who should be on cholesterol meds who aren't. Etc — PolitiTweet.org

@mirandayaver Neither was 9/11, the comparison he used in his first Tweet. Why is his comparison valid in this conversation while mine isn't? — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@johnpavlovitz 9/11 wasn't contagious either. But that's the comparison you used in your first Tweet. Why is your comparison valid while mine isn't? — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@Eoin_Dineen @johnpavlovitz The original comparison was 9/11 and Covid, so whatever conversation we're having doesn't seem to demand *like deaths" just magnitude of them. — PolitiTweet.org

@ijbailey The team that LeBron pushed to build is 28 and 35. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
More people have died of cardiovascular disease than Covid in the last two days. How do you understand the relationship between that fact and your argument @johnpavlovitz? — PolitiTweet.org
John Pavlovitz @johnpavlovitz
More people have died from COVID over the last two days than in the 9/11 attacks—but I'm glad so many of you are over the pandemic.

Kareem is the GOAT. I can live with LeBron at number 3. — PolitiTweet.org

If the war in Ukraine kills the same number of people as Covid will you think that's a big deal or that you were vindicated in downplaying it because most people lived? — PolitiTweet.org

@CrotserJeremiah @ijbailey How would you suggest equalizing pay given that orders of magnitude more people pay to watch and watch men's basketball? The pie they're dividing up is just much bigger. — PolitiTweet.org

I wonder if dry cleaners ever clean the clothes, then wear the clothes, then clean the clothes again, then give them back to the customer, and I encourage Curb Your Enthusiasm to explore that scenario. — PolitiTweet.org

@JessPish @ijbailey Sometimes greed causes people to harm others to benefit themselves. My point is, that's a feature of humanity that happens in all systems, countries, and eras, not a feature of capitalism. — PolitiTweet.org
