No great shame in being wrong about something but it’s a bad idea to issue totally unequivocal super-confident predictions about clearly uncertain things and bad to react to wrongness with defensiveness rather than reflection. https://t.co/rTBCS19Pwf https://t.co/f8Co5DJ6mO — PolitiTweet.org

This stuff about the authoritarian menace of DeSantis-ism is meant to be criticism but I think it’s basically all an in-kind contribution to his campaign — the struggle is going to be securing coverage of his “boring” “normal” policies. https://t.co/eRjmnYzqD9 — PolitiTweet.org

I think people should ask what’s a tougher narrative for DeSantis: — He’s a brand new kind of figure who poses a unique threat to liberal cultural values — He’s a very banal Republican with banal GOP views on taxes, Medicaid, and Medicare — PolitiTweet.org

Some fair points in this piece but I also think it’s hard to look at the political history of the United States from 1968-2000 and conclude that progressives were running the show. — PolitiTweet.org

@firasd I suspect most dieting metrologies work by drastically curtailing snacking, but then get undermined because the market starts creating compliant snacks for popular diets — I bet the keto diet works much better if you don’t buy the Keto Cups I see for sale at the supermarket. — PolitiTweet.org

Most Democrats are anti-spanking and most Republicans are pro-spanking. But spanking is much more popular with African-Americans than with whites. https://t.co/UW0QD183k6 https://t.co/VisXWRKfAz — PolitiTweet.org

@lhfang I think it’s revealing that the 117th Congress passed prescription drug legislation. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ — PolitiTweet.org

Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias

@lhfang Well so your claim was that the protest was revealing. I asked what it revealed and you said it reveals something about most liberals. I countered that most liberals didn’t protest. Now you’re just reiterate that you believed this all along, which is fine but no revelation. — PolitiTweet.org

@psychosort Well you don’t have to ignore the other stuff, but I do think that on this website the literal policy actions of members of congress have become an underrated dimension of politics and that paying attention to them is therefore revealing. — PolitiTweet.org

@HiTonedBumpkeen @lhfang Read his words. He said it was revealing. I asked what it revealed. He said it revealed something about “most liberals.” I countered that most liberals did not in fact do the thing he is criticizing and so nothing was revealed. — PolitiTweet.org

I guess to me what’s most revealing is: — Democrats pushed an ambitious prescription drug price cut in BBB — Independent Kyrsten Sinema reduced its scope — The smaller, but still significant, price cut bill passed on a party-line vote https://t.co/A0k5KxYkoi — PolitiTweet.org

@lhfang But most liberals didn’t protest either thing, right? So it doesn’t reveal anything about the majority of liberals. — PolitiTweet.org
