Very telling details about the ugly racism that can happen when left-leaning jurisdictions operate in a culture of trying to increase rather than decrease the salience of race in politics. https://t.co/8YHQYmbFIs — PolitiTweet.org

@jessesingal I'm sure you've heard the *exercise more* advice. All I'd add to it is that, for reasons I don't understand, swimming laps is the kind of exercise that has most helped me to sleep well that night. — PolitiTweet.org

@MichaelDKarras @ijbailey I just don't get taking a story like the NYT one that doesn't use the term and then choosing to talk about it through that lens. There are almost always better ones if we're choosing how to talk about something — PolitiTweet.org

@MichaelDKarras @ijbailey Sure and fair enough, I just feel like "cancel culture" is a flawed, if inescapable, frame, and I don't understand the impulse to frame more conversations around if something is or isn't it instead of if something is or isn't objectionable and why. — PolitiTweet.org

@ijbailey It seems like you spend as much or more time asking whether something is or isn't cancel culture than people who "believe in" it, but I think there are often better questions to ask, like, *Did the administration behave badly here?* and *if so, what enabled them to do so?* — PolitiTweet.org

@ijbailey if a director said "I'm not going to cast white men anymore" people would complain "that's racism" and call him "woke" but I don't know that they would say he "cancelled" the white actors. Just observing, not advocating for, this interpretation — PolitiTweet.org

@ijbailey I think if he directed this at one Yale law student in retaliation for activism that would be cancel culture. Insofar as this is different from usual use cases for the term it's because this is a group boycott not a campaign to target or punish a discrete person. So e.g. — PolitiTweet.org
