@chequeredfuture @OsitaNwanevu Yeah, in all seriousness there do seem to be some significant differences between the US and (some) European states on these sorts of questions — PolitiTweet.org

@DJTPoll @unallamas I’m going to check back in with the source who sent it to me as well, saying the Italian article was correct. Important to get things right! — PolitiTweet.org

@ryanlcooper on that score, it's genuinely nice to see biden framing "unity" as excluding reconciliation with bad-faith actors and racists — PolitiTweet.org

Hungary is doing this because its anti-immigration policies make it impossible to meet the demand for labor from German auto manufacturers who have plants there. Orbán and his anti-globalist nationalists are enslaving Hungarians to serve foreign capital https://t.co/Q88cQHhtoA — PolitiTweet.org

@lahoare The email is from a PR flack but the actual source is this article in one of Italy's leading papers https://t.co/pB2Vhzeuqu — PolitiTweet.org

@WillGFreeman Personally, I prefer far-right authoritarian (I think I used "soft fascism" once, which I now somewhat regret). But that does minimize the looting part, which yours rightly emphasizes. — PolitiTweet.org

The right-wing "populists" in Hungary, who allegedly show the way to a working class conservatism in America, have introduced a new law that brutally oppresses actual workers https://t.co/cQgRSytUL4 — PolitiTweet.org

@ryanlcooper @JHWeissmann I think in both cases it's an oversimplification — and wrong re: Identity Crisis, which I know better. I feel like everyone remembers the studies on how, for ex., voters punished Dems House members in '10 for the Obamacare vote — PolitiTweet.org

Zack Beauchamp @zackbeauchamp

@JHWeissmann @ryanlcooper Where has anyone argued that? I've been pretty hardline on "identity is #1" but I can't remember ever saying actual events don't matter at all, because that would be dumb — PolitiTweet.org

@neilsinhababu One of my most quixotic journalistic goals is to make applied Rawlsianism an actual thing in the public square — PolitiTweet.org

Would be great for all of the critics of "cancel culture" to come out of the woodwork to defend Will — PolitiTweet.org

Zack Beauchamp @zackbeauchamp

A truly awful decision by Niskanen. Will's tweet was obviously sarcastic, the objections to it entirely absurd. The notion that it could "in any way be interpreted" as condoning violence means accepting that bad faith be taken at face value. Pure right-wing political correctness — PolitiTweet.org

@jbouie These debates would be more productive if everyone read Tesler on that last point — PolitiTweet.org

Zack Beauchamp @zackbeauchamp

@DouthatNYT There is some Venn diagram overlap, but there's also huge areas that they don't. My point is that the causal story being told by "big showy spending" advocates about 2022 doesn't require accepting that Trump won because of downscale whites unhappy with free trade agreements. — PolitiTweet.org

Zack Beauchamp @zackbeauchamp

Put differently: Jeff's gotcha only works if you think that the explanation of the forces that turned the GOP Trumpy is the same as the explanation for why the GOP wins elections in a two-party system. They are obviously not. — PolitiTweet.org

Zack Beauchamp @zackbeauchamp

Argument 1: The 2016 surge in racism and xenophobia that led to Trump's election did not come from the put-upon working class's displaced anxiety. Argument 2: Democrats will do better in the 2022 midterms if they appeal to swing voters with clear deliverables. No tension! — PolitiTweet.org

In the Biden era, speech and language issues — long neglected in public discourse — have gotten more attention. If you're interested in helping on these issues, it so happens that my sister runs an excellent non-profit that you can donate to here: https://t.co/fpgeffTjRu — PolitiTweet.org
