New episode of BAD TAKES all about the attacks on Paul Pelosi and the right’s unwillingness to respond with any compassion, empathy, or basic decency. https://t.co/SJYDDuRUIm — PolitiTweet.org

We need to make it legal to build more and more diverse housing types, not legalize sleeping in parks and turning public spaces into drug markets. https://t.co/VkRm1FeWAo — PolitiTweet.org

A lot of the dysfunction @michelleinbklyn wrote about in Oregon yesterday comes down to lazily giving up on flawed systems for maintaining order rather than trying to make them work better. https://t.co/6qNb8DykEE — PolitiTweet.org

But you do still need cops to enforce the rules against people using fake tags and reject this idea that letting reckless drivers speed with impunity is racial equity. — PolitiTweet.org

I do agree that in traffic enforcement we see evidence of a discriminatory pattern in stops, which is one reason why the shift to cameras and automated enforcement is a good idea. https://t.co/2gP4lkf1UO — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
To be clear — enforcing the rules and making people pay fares is not “pretextual” (nor is enforcing traffic laws pretextual). I am saying there is an important co-benefit in that you catch people guilty of other things. https://t.co/81PAk3VgYF — PolitiTweet.org

Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
Bonus content in the post — the free fare fad is a dumb way of giving up on the entire of quality mass transit. Of saying “yeah our service will be terrible but you’ll be getting what you lay for.” Reject it. Run good, useful service and collect fares. https://t.co/81PAk3VgYF — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
Reason two — arresting criminals and searching them for illegal guns is a good alternative to the antipatterns of non-enforcement or “stop and frisk” https://t.co/81PAk3VgYF https://t.co/HqfIpWFGFx — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
Why make people pay the fare? Reason one — collecting fare revenue is actually important to funding a transit system and keeping it running at a reasonable level of quality. https://t.co/81PAk3VgYF https://t.co/sIuTjhJKYH — PolitiTweet.org

It’s November and that means WMATA is starting its great post-pandemic fare evasion crackdown. Making people pay fares has become unfashionable as part of a larger trend of saying it’s bad to enforce rules but in fact it’s good. https://t.co/81PAk3VgYF — PolitiTweet.org

@ThePlumLineGS @brianbeutler @jonfavs Like if you give people a straight choice between a candidate who’ll end democracy and prioritize jailing criminals + cheap gas and a candidate who’ll support democracy and prioritize ending mass incarceration + curbing fossil fuels, then an informed electorate picks fascism. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
@ThePlumLineGS @brianbeutler @jonfavs I am all for it, personally, I just think that you maximize your odds of prosecuting that case successfully if you also convey to centrist and center-right voters that you agree with their views on issues and are also generally chill and low key about policy disagreements. — PolitiTweet.org

I think if you try to operationalize Stancilism in a serious way you get convergence with David Shor Thought and Clinton-style triangulation — try to maintain a singular media focus on GOP extremism and scandal by ditching progressive policy ambition. — PolitiTweet.org
