@wil_da_beast630 I don't understand what "weak" means here — PolitiTweet.org

@ArtVand43302074 No, he isn't. I dislike the Clintons and believe them to be corrupt in ten different ways but his claim there is nonsense. — PolitiTweet.org

This illustrates several attributes of Steve Bannon that many of us saw very clearly in 2016 when alarmed by the prospect of him gaining significant political power. — PolitiTweet.org

Yep. When one sanctions cruelty as a means, no matter how good your end might be, one attracts people who like to be cruel for its own sake, not people who are reluctantly cruel for the greater good. And the influx of those people will corrupts any coalition. — PolitiTweet.org

They said "Russian warship, go fuck yourself." I strenuously object to censoring their heroic last words, perhaps intended to rouse others to similar deeds. They are news that's fit to print. — PolitiTweet.org

@SohrabAhmari The substantive flaw in your tweet isn't the true notion that power matters. It is the false notion that Ukraine was fooled by the West into imagining otherwise. — PolitiTweet.org

I preferred the "Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall" right to the "We're invading Iraq" right and the "tsk Mr. Reagan, the rights of East Germans are circumscribed by geography, history, economics, and chance" right. — PolitiTweet.org

This formulation elides the culpability of Putin, the instigator of this murderous thuggery, with a passive formulations that utterly obscures his role, even as it casts the west in active language to exaggerate its culpability. But it didn't fool me! — PolitiTweet.org

@chucker I wish I would have been clearer on what I meant in the original tweet but having clarified I'm not sure why you're still obsessing over it. And again: my question pertains to the set of things that kids cannot decide, which is why I didn't list them. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@chucker Among things that are up to adults, of which there are many, which adults decide? — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@chucker My point is that the age of consent is up to adults, not the kid. The content of sex ed curriculum is up to adults too. My question was about the many things that are up to adults, not the things, like sexual orientation, that are obviously up to the kid. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@chucker Who decides when it comes to age of consent? Who decides when it comes to what age dating is allowed? I bet your answers are different. — PolitiTweet.org

@docMJP As I always say about claims of Trump Derangement Syndrome: if you think a figure breaks the brains of many of your fellow citizens you should want them to be president. Having that effect on others is a bad quality in a leader. — PolitiTweet.org

More frustrating still, many of the liberal order's biggest beneficiaries on the left and right have myopically dedicated themselves to tearing down the liberal order due to its ostensible inadequacies rather than building on its achievements — PolitiTweet.org

@knowerofsecrets Those topics encompass a lot more than an individual knowing what they are, which of course is up to the individual. But kids don't decide what they are exposed to and when, or what they can do about it. Those are the things I was asking about. — PolitiTweet.org
