@BrendanNyhan @Nate_Cohn @cwarshaw my preferred model has polarization as a cause of democratic erosion rather than coterminous with it, but i think analytically it does make sense to describe the parties as asymmetrically polarized over basic democratic principles — PolitiTweet.org
Zack Beauchamp @zackbeauchamp
@Nate_Cohn @BrendanNyhan @cwarshaw if you think of polarization as deviation from a center point of support for the basic principles of democracy as a governing system rather than certain particularities of how the american system works like the filibuster, it's clearly asymmetric — which imo is the right model — PolitiTweet.org

Sometimes I worry I'm being too alarmist about the future of American democracy. Then stories like this make me worry I'm not being alarmist enough. — PolitiTweet.org

They want to arrest the people responsible for supervising a fair election and then seize partisan control of the vote counting procedure. There's a reasonable chance they'll succeed: there's a gubernatorial election in 2022 and the national environment looks grim for Democrats https://t.co/lFUr7Fpn6c — PolitiTweet.org

This is terrifying — and a window into what might happen in GOP-controlled statehouses across the country before the 2024 election https://t.co/FXjwqBadmT — PolitiTweet.org

@gregsasso Absolutely. $20 for a 4-pack of an 18.6% beer, which is an extremely impressive brewing accomplishment if it tastes any good, is a more-than-reasonable price — PolitiTweet.org
Zack Beauchamp @zackbeauchamp
@neilsinhababu A friend of mine once got me a 32 percent beer — yes, seriously, this exists — for my birthday. It came with a little stopper so you could drink bits at a time without losing too much carbonation — PolitiTweet.org
Zack Beauchamp @zackbeauchamp
It's basically, per unit of alcohol, only slightly more expensive than a six-pack of 9 percent beer priced at $13 — which is on the lower end for decent beer in my experience — PolitiTweet.org
Zack Beauchamp @zackbeauchamp
Honestly, on a dollar-per-ABV basis, this is kind of a steal — PolitiTweet.org

$20 for four bottles! The alcohol isn't the only thing nutty about this https://t.co/J6hQSnQep4

Increasingly think that 2010 is one of the most important years in modern American history. The passage of Obamacare, rise of the Tea Party, and lopsided GOP victories in statehouses set the stage for so much of what was to come. — PolitiTweet.org

Again, this does not mean that current left-liberal discourse about identity is perfect. It very much is not! But it's really important to keep some perspective here. — PolitiTweet.org

Attempts to ban books in schools are up 60 percent this year, seemingly due to panic about LGBT content and "critical race theory" https://t.co/DVXkM4sGkX It's increasingly clear, as some of us have long argued, that the "anti-woke" backlash is more illiberal than its targets. — PolitiTweet.org

There's a lot more in the piece, including details on the specific and terrifying ways in which public servants *and their families* have been menaced in recent months. Please read it — this is serious, important stuff https://t.co/HFESpcmeLh — PolitiTweet.org

This wave of death threats is having direct consequences for our democracy: -making the election system more vulnerable to partisan interference -undermining the pandemic response -allowing for ideologues to reshape schools https://t.co/HFESpcmeLh https://t.co/xKjAHz6Yk8 — PolitiTweet.org

@jlynnmccoy Here's maybe the scariest parts: the threats are *working.* https://t.co/HFESpcmeLh https://t.co/wQktIz143e — PolitiTweet.org
Zack Beauchamp @zackbeauchamp
Their rhetoric frames these officials as part of anti-American conspiracies, existential threats to our way of life. This is an outgrowth of something called "pernicious polarization" — a concept from political scientists Murat Somer and @jlynnmccoy https://t.co/HFESpcmeLh https://t.co/bJJPppTqji — PolitiTweet.org
Zack Beauchamp @zackbeauchamp
Why is there a wave of these threats? There's a simple answer — one of our two major parties has demonized public officials https://t.co/HFESpcmeLh https://t.co/bZwekytvJp — PolitiTweet.org

17 percent of election workers have been threatened due to their jobs. 24 percent of public health officials have felt "bullied, harassed, or threatened." And in the past months, the threats have started coming against school officials https://t.co/HFESpcmeLh https://t.co/EdyZtvEbTT — PolitiTweet.org

17 percent of election workers nationwide have received threats. 25 percent of public health workers have been " bullied, threatened, or harassed." School board members and superintendents are quitting in droves https://t.co/HFESpcmeLh — PolitiTweet.org

@MattZeitlin i mean, this is a fun scene in a perfectly adequate movie that's still better than work from allegedly prestige directors like iñarritu — PolitiTweet.org
