@ijbailey @studentactivism I don't accuse you of bad faith, I accuse you of having bad reading comprehension that causes you to regularly straw man others, but I'm good faith. — PolitiTweet.org

@clayranck I'm not sure why you are talking about book bans? I'm not. I'm talking about various laws proposed and in some cases passed in red states. — PolitiTweet.org

@clayranck Political factions co-opt the logic of other political factions. That doesn't absolve them of the responsibility for introducing bad legislation. You need to hold both ideas in your head at once and realize they are not contradictory — PolitiTweet.org

@studentactivism @ijbailey No, the "current round" is broader than what I specified: the narrower set of "words that wound" logic bans, which are a subset of this round on the right. And people who pass bad bills bear fault for them. But yes CRT did help spread the *words that wound* idea in America. — PolitiTweet.org

@heyjeffdavidson @AkivaMCohen Jeff, I can't take the word of a stranger on Twitter that an anonymous account is run by a person I once wrote about, but I can say that whether or not the person has or hasn't done other racist things, holding a friend's baby on his lap was not racist by any sane definition. — PolitiTweet.org

@etosallday @mattyglesias I suspect I understand the relationship between banning "words that wound" and critical race theory much better than you do if you think the two are unrelated. — PolitiTweet.org

Costco's beer selection is much more basic than its wine selection. Why? To have more German wine on hand than German beer is a sign of something amiss. — PolitiTweet.org
