Also, @Politico, did you really think that by not publishing my letter you could avoid the publication of my letter? — PolitiTweet.org

Cultists like Ben Shapiro will tell you they're at risk of cancellation, and places like Politico will publish them to show how both-sidesy they are. But does the principle of airing many views not apply to an honest criticism of Politico that many of your employees share? — PolitiTweet.org

On the day Politico gave Playbook to Ben Shapiro, it asked my thoughts on how Biden can unite us. Given that it published Shapiro in the spirit of airing diverse views, I thought it would be open to whatever I had to say. But Politico refused to run what I wrote, which is below. https://t.co/VclONKdWjW — PolitiTweet.org

When I say Democrats need to fight, I am saying precisely what I mean. I appreciate your concerns about my talent. And feel free to disagree with me. But there are many, many good ways to fight that don't involve any violence. https://t.co/GSgVwXlP45 — PolitiTweet.org

@hmcghee What's the opposite of the pool parable? The parable of Bridget. When Bridget fought against the Other wanting nice things, she also lowered her sights for herself. When she stood with the Other, "she began to believe in a higher horizon for herself, and she was transformed." https://t.co/FVYD1rSwpy — PolitiTweet.org

I asked @hmcghee how we make that case to white Americans -- to prefer sharing America to burning it down. This was her beautiful answer. https://t.co/aIlr1FkOIL https://t.co/NT03Vmk9rD — PolitiTweet.org

Personally, I think this is one of the big opportunities Biden has. To give the older-white-guy version of Obama's Philly race speech. To speak to white America about this moment of change, to recognize the fears, but then make the case for dismantling racism for all our sakes. — PolitiTweet.org

@theburnerunit @hmcghee Thank you, Cassie! — PolitiTweet.org

I asked @hmcghee how @JoeBiden can go beyond unity platitudes and actually speak to white Americans. Look them in the eye and talk them through this great identity shift in America, and themselves, and share his "white moderate journey," as Heather says. https://t.co/aIlr1FkOIL https://t.co/jt8GhCVlry — PolitiTweet.org

"We need media reform that has a new standard of fairness and accuracy...[P]eople who want to see a shift have to use this moment in the wake of the Capitol insurrection to get real accountability and consequences for the purveyors of disinformation." https://t.co/aIlr1FkOIL — PolitiTweet.org
THE PERSUADERS by Anand Giridharadas @AnandWrites
@hmcghee The practical question becomes, How do we get tens of millions of Americans to conceive of themselves and their identity differently, so we can have those nice things we all deserve? @hmcghee's first order of business: "We have to turn off the spigot" of disinformation and hate. https://t.co/WZckERl7Ax — PolitiTweet.org

@hmcghee In a moment when we are summoned to reach across our divides, but hopefully without naïveté or illusion, @hmcghee told me the story of an extraordinary friendship she formed with a racist named Garry. https://t.co/aIlr1FkOIL https://t.co/k5qhRwCnwX — PolitiTweet.org
THE PERSUADERS by Anand Giridharadas @AnandWrites
@hmcghee .@hmcghee says what racism has done is "ratchet down white people’s expectations for themselves." Because so many feel satisfied simply not being the Other, they don't expect the nice things they deserve -- and would rather forego than share them. https://t.co/aIlr1FkOIL https://t.co/ZJy4fvq02u — PolitiTweet.org

@hmcghee And @hmcghee reminds us that white supremacy, which Joe Biden rightly called out yesterday, is a prime example of what he eloquently described as "lies told for power and for profit." White supremacy helps the plutes far more than regular white folks. https://t.co/aIlr1FkOIL https://t.co/Q0XlxUG9We — PolitiTweet.org

@hmcghee So, yes, the white workers at a non-union auto factory have better jobs than the Black workers. But they're all not in a union because of racism. https://t.co/aIlr1FkOIL https://t.co/wXEVO3aO8M — PolitiTweet.org

@hmcghee .@hmcghee argues that racism of course benefits white people, offering psychic and material benefits. But it also does another thing we often fail to notice: it deprives all of us, including white people, of the common supports that would put all of our lives on a higher plane. https://t.co/Dk3BpgG1P7 — PolitiTweet.org

@hmcghee What happened to those pools happened to the American opportunity structure writ large. The more that structure had to be shared, the more white communities voted to drain the pool -- of welfare, of public college, or healthcare. https://t.co/aIlr1FkOIL https://t.co/Di17nyPK6a — PolitiTweet.org

@hmcghee I don't think I've spoken to anyone of late who so clearly has the formula for a successful Biden presidency. So pay attention to @hmcghee's every phrase. https://t.co/aIlr1FkOIL — PolitiTweet.org
THE PERSUADERS by Anand Giridharadas @AnandWrites
America once built thousands of public pools. Many were whites-only or segregated. When integration came, many white locales chose to drain the pool for all instead of share it. I interviewed @hmcghee about her new book about America as a drained pool. https://t.co/aIlr1FkOIL — PolitiTweet.org
