Generational parity between Boomers and young millennials/Gen Z would now require the former to tithe 10 percent of their net worth to whatever green energy investments Scott Alexander dubs most worthy as payback for pandemic restrictions on the young that benefitted the old. — PolitiTweet.org

@Popehat @jbarro Though against some mockery I officially endorse both of yours. Just want to be on the record with that. — PolitiTweet.org

One reason for the rise in J school interest is the fact that there are so many fewer slots at local newspapers where one can apprentice and learn. They're often hollowed out husks where the editors who once would've mentored took buyouts or PR jobs 10 years ago. — PolitiTweet.org

The Trump coalition relied on what Karen Stenner dubs The Authoritarian Dynamic to win. What works to consolidate support for such a coalition is different from what works to consolidate support for a more diverse coalition w/ a difference tolerating not difference fearing pitch — PolitiTweet.org

@mattyglesias Would you agree that Trump wasn't taken seriously enough and that the general atmosphere of incredulous mockery exacerbated that? I wouldn't go quite so far as your formulation... but if I had to run it again I would advise less mockery versus other strategies — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@skidoosh10 Yeah, the contest was based on electoral votes, not the popular vote, which Clinton in fact won. Perhaps more time on strategy versus mocking "deplorables" would've born fruit! — PolitiTweet.org

Of course, on the benefit side, all lawyers are unusually ethical compared to professions with no barriers to entry... (Sarcasm note for the credulous) — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
That's because journalism doesn't have a professional cartel that requires a degree as a price of admission, conveniently inflating the salaries of the rent-seekers in the process. Absent that, there would be e.g. a Matt Yglesias or Ross Douthat of law in most firms. — PolitiTweet.org

@WacoYid @larryelder @BetoORourke @DavidAFrench @DavidMDrucker I'll be surprised if he comes as close as Beto did to winning — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
In 2016, mocking Trump rather than taking him seriously as someone who could win was a rather catastrophic mistake for the media, the Clintons, and much of the Democratic Party. If you could do 2016 over again would you try that same posture or change it up? — PolitiTweet.org

@DKThomp @Bernstein I can only speak about NYU but it was actually quite practical in my experience, especially @rsboynton and @katherineroiphe and Tim Harper and @Penenberg and @jayrosen_nyu — PolitiTweet.org

@cashewrising There are differences that cut in both directions. Abortions end a life 100 percent of the time... but are not contagious and don't spread exponentially. — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
Yes. This has shaped my views a out mockery and politics. I think that if you fight on the terrain of mockery you advantage rather than disadvantage Trump types, because they're very good at mockery, and abysmal at reason, honor, compassion, truthfulness, persuasion, etc. — PolitiTweet.org

@halvorz @JoesPhDsAndCult I wonder what we'd do if we wanted to scale that up for the future — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@DerekLarsen7 Okay but Pfizer wants to produce and sell more, so what are its obstacles to scaling up seems like it should largely overlap with general obstacles. — PolitiTweet.org

@StefanKertesz @cultofphil @rhett_orackle @KennyGIsCool @benshapiro I'd like to know if it is like drunk driving, that is to say, on a numbers basis, how do the risks compare. I have no intuitive sense. — PolitiTweet.org

@spencerwindes @mario_anchor So your theory is that Larry Elder, who would be California's first black governor, is the candidate of... White power? — PolitiTweet.org

@spencerwindes That is not the agenda of most California Republicans — PolitiTweet.org
Conor Friedersdorf @conor64
@MikeRTrice Which is totally obvious and has been for years and still the California GOP doesn't learn. — PolitiTweet.org

Republicans in California excel at rallying around candidates who are popular with talk radio listeners and highly likely to alienate majorities of voters. They just lose, lose, lose, and almost never even attempt the obvious strategy of *coming together behind a centrist.* — PolitiTweet.org
