@mattyglesias Yeah, I mean, in cases like these lots of people will immediately swoop in to viciously argue over what to label it. Putting aside that a lot remains unknown here so maybe first allowing 0.001 seconds of reporting is prudent, I think that misses a lot. https://t.co/ITeJkGWnq9 — PolitiTweet.org

In those cases, there’s no magic litmus test for whether it “counts” as a coup or revolution. It’s messier than a simple, clean label. But in public discourse coup/revolution will be applied as a moral judgment, to mean “removal of govt I dislike” vs “removal of govt I like.” — PolitiTweet.org

@bellingcat Rather than defuse by denouncing the "kill list" of journos seemingly based on her site's article, or so much as offering to look into it, Quillette's editor implies the whole thing is made up in retaliation for the article supposedly showing MSM links to antifa. Bizarre. https://t.co/5sv2OJebXL — PolitiTweet.org

Disturbing @bellingcat findings: a Quillette article, which had implied MSM is in league with antifa, seemingly became the basis for a far-right video calling for murders of journos named in the article. Easy for Quillette to distance itself, but that was ... not their response. — PolitiTweet.org

Syrians and Iraqis have one fewer tormenter today. Disaffected young men online have one fewer person encouraging them to violence. That matters, though I’m not sure whether today’s news has much significance beyond that. — PolitiTweet.org

There has been a lot of valorization of the American project in Syria over the past week. But I think that really misunderstands how Trump came to be in a position to provoke such chaos. This was a disaster with many fathers, including the people being cast as the Kurds' saviors. — PolitiTweet.org

@mattyglesias There’s a segment of Twitter where fighting over Snowden’s motivations and judgment is like the 2016 Dem primary. Endlessly, bitterly relitigated between two Manichean camps who see the issue as all-defining. Game Theory Guy was on the other side of that fight. — PolitiTweet.org
