I’m just a random guy who’s been reading military fantasy novels for a very long time. I bet actual experts on medieval warfare were losing their minds during that episode (which, for the record, was super fun to watch) — PolitiTweet.org

@samuelmoyn Probably the actual reason, yeah — PolitiTweet.org

Why did they have their cavalry charge into the dark at the beginning? Why did the infantry engage on the ground rather than defend the walls with dragon support? — PolitiTweet.org

It all worked out in the end, but the Army of the Living’s strategy in that battle was beyond stupid — PolitiTweet.org

More broadly, one thing is clear to me as an American Jew: this is the most dangerous time for us in recent memory — PolitiTweet.org

I’ve read the Poway shooter’s manifesto. Not going to link it, but it’s very clear evidence that “ironic” internet anti-Semitism has murderous real-world consequences — PolitiTweet.org

I dislike watching videos to learn about politics, and vastly prefer reading articles and books. So the turn towards YouTube as a key site for political conversation, especially on the fringes I cover, is extremely annoying. — PolitiTweet.org

@noonanjo Hah, that's possible! I guess think it's really clear cut, though. The Unite the Right rally was always an alt-right event, and there's no plausible way that Trump can retcon referring to them as "fine people" by making it about Lee's generalship — PolitiTweet.org

@noonanjo Or if it is, it's in an evasive way. The defensible interpretation — "Lee was a talented general" — is being used to smuggle in the indefensible one, that it's good and right that we see him as an American icon — PolitiTweet.org
Zack Beauchamp @zackbeauchamp
@noonanjo I think Trump saying "Lee was a great general" when defending his labeling of racists protestors defending his statue as "fine people" — the actual context here — is clearly not a historical assessment of Lee's ability as a commander — PolitiTweet.org
Zack Beauchamp @zackbeauchamp
@noonanjo But that’s not the function of Trump’s comments. It’s not an academic assessment of Lee’s strategic acumen, but rather a defense of venerating him with a statue — PolitiTweet.org

This, from @halikiopoulou & @timvlandas, is the strongest argument I've seen so far for a variant of the "economic anxiety" thesis when it comes to the rise of the European far-right: https://t.co/sGLDeqoQmJ Always interesting to see work challenging my priors. — PolitiTweet.org
