Children have no place in a liberal democracy. What do I mean by this prescriptive statement? Simply that children are tyrants and we should banish them to the outer darkness until they respect our rights https://t.co/6kAESqat6p — PolitiTweet.org

one of the great failures of american education is that you've gotta wind up in a pretty rarified space to even find out what liberal democracy is, which is a concerning state of affairs for a political system that requires a lot of TLC — PolitiTweet.org
Elizabeth Bruenig @ebruenig
@mnitabach You don't think liberal democracy has any relation to these principles as a political theory, or you don't think it does in practice? This is a piece about theory https://t.co/BFTUf1e4bL — PolitiTweet.org

@rclapp8 secretly it's because y'all don't really care if anyone is mean to anyone >:) that's all a lie, it's just about the friend/enemy distinction. there's no principle in you — PolitiTweet.org

@ebruenig have you ever entertained the possibility that people don't care if others are mean to you because you are insufferable

you look at her follows and interactions and she's not a tiny account or a politically disinterested user. it's just that she's correctly deduced it's fine to say weird sex shit to me because nobody in her liberal peer group is gonna get mad at her about it — PolitiTweet.org
Elizabeth Bruenig @ebruenig
i don't make a thing of it because i don't really care but it's incredible how there are some women in media you can pretty much say whatever you want to -- i.e., this lady will not be censured in any real way for saying i can't catch pipe out of nowhere — PolitiTweet.org
