This piece has reinforced my belief that given present supplies the federal government is behaving unethically by restricting third doses for those who want them, and also behaving unethically by failing to donate more doses that are getting thrown away https://t.co/veVP19icrr — PolitiTweet.org

It definitely would have been nice if Republican and Democratic political leaders had embraced police reform and occupational licensing reform and gay marriage and marijuana legalization and opposition to mass warrantless surveillance and torture when, say, Reason Magazine did. — PolitiTweet.org

It is best practiced, IMHO, with the determination to thoughtfully but properly *value individual liberty*, knowing that it has so often been undervalued in human history--most memorably in the 20th Century by Nazis and Communists, and prior to that by slavers. — PolitiTweet.org

This is a lazy strawman that Matt is too smart to indulge in. As he well knows, there is no rigid doctrine to which I adhere. Pretending otherwise is a way to evade discussing the merits of a specific matter where I do think libertarian insights would have steered America better. — PolitiTweet.org

In conclusion, it's time we make a better attempt to solve all murders, in the name of life and racial justice alike https://t.co/qBrHV7uqfV — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
The racial disparity in *who gets murdered* would be a huge concern among people who typically draw attention to and decry racial disparities, if consistency reined, yet somehow, this is the one that gets described as a panic, though the stakes are superlative — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
One needn't pay particularly close attention to know there is an uptick in murders in many American cities, and that people are concerned by that trens because murder is scary and bad. — PolitiTweet.org

Here is a USA Today poll about attitudes toward public safety in Detroit https://t.co/fPD3McBFTk Ask yourself if @jasonintrator's claim can be squared with its findings — PolitiTweet.org

The confidence with which some attribute this monocausally to "racism" despite significant evidence that other factors are at play is the latest illustration of how reflexive adherence to an Ur narrative harms our ability to address what is, in this case, a life or death problem. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@AnneCW @jahenderson0 @mattyglesias As I understand it the FDA's budget was much higher in 2019 than in 2000 and budget constraints played no role in the speed at which Covid vaccines were approved. However, if there's a more funding equals faster approval option I'm for it — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@jahenderson0 @mattyglesias I'm not sure that's true but I favor all the public investment we did and would prefer even better funding for that sort of public health so I'm not sure our disagreement matters. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@mattyglesias I don't think it's ideological hypocrisy or that one needs to adopt libertarian ideology to see forbidding someone access to a lifesaving vaccine during a pandemic as a serious infringement on liberty. (Though notice libertarian ideology would have saved lives in this example.) — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
Given how many people now favor making vaccines mandatory, it seems like more people should've agreed with me back when I said, before FDA approval, that forbidding us from getting vaccines we already knew to be effective and wanted was a severe infringement on liberty. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
America is still banning *even vaccinated French travelers.** It's nonsensical. Their rules are reasonable and we should mirror them. — PolitiTweet.org

@ijbailey Lorne Michaels. In seriousness, no one gets to decide alone and everyone gets to weigh in, but one fair test might be, can one reliably distinguish a faction's rhetoric from attempts at absurdist parody of that rhetoric? — PolitiTweet.org

@gracels @Popehat I don't fear the vaccine. Doing so is irrational and unreasonable in my estimation. But I can put myself in the place of a good person who is afraid of the vaccine because they don't understand the facts as I do. And I'm sure I am wrong about many consequential things. — PolitiTweet.org

@gracels @Popehat Not for his worst actions, but if he gets Lou Gehrig's Disease tomorrow, then for that, I think so, yes. If the cops assault him, yes. — PolitiTweet.org
