@zeynep @sarahjeong All day I have been thinking about how Apple minimized a state-sponsored attack against Uighurs by literally saying it only affected Uighurs. The danger here is not that we will minimize China's actions or excuse the US *further* https://t.co/09WeioCZcz https://t.co/DdGy6Tpt8e — PolitiTweet.org

@_MLuqman_ You will note that the President is currently corrupting the Postal Service during a year where vote-by-mail will increase and telling voters the election will be fraudulent — PolitiTweet.org

@bcoops222 It does actually say they are the same! — PolitiTweet.org

@_MLuqman_ You will note just above this I linked to the President retaliating against a member of his own party for expressing reservations about speech regulation — PolitiTweet.org

@_MLuqman_ Our President has repeatedly tried to ban Muslims from the country. Not a slow slide, a fast one. — PolitiTweet.org

Just two weeks ago Trump retaliated against a GOP FCC commissioner with reservations about a proposed plan to regulate speech on social networks. You can scream false equivalence all you want, but it's not a slow slide... it's a fast one. https://t.co/qxpcVjeEzQ — PolitiTweet.org

@nuzzlegun One of those things is already definitely happening. The other one... I'd prefer to head that one off at the pass. — PolitiTweet.org

@army_of_shadowz @gadyepstein I encourage you to actually read the piece — PolitiTweet.org
nilay patel @reckless
@gadyepstein The thesis of the piece is that our ability to dissent is being challenged and undermined in ways that track China, of course. — PolitiTweet.org
nilay patel @reckless
@gadyepstein Sure. How many secret police on the streets of America are too many? How much election meddling is too much? You’re going to say none, and yet there is... some. It is not an equivalence, it is evidence that the quiestion of equivalence is indeed getting harder to answer — PolitiTweet.org
nilay patel @reckless
@TurnTheTapeOff @gadyepstein That is precisely the argument — PolitiTweet.org
nilay patel @reckless
@gadyepstein I think it challenges you to question the assumption that America is not sliding into the equivalence. Let me put it this way: how many children in cages is too many for you to accept? — PolitiTweet.org
nilay patel @reckless
@gadyepstein I think it speaks to a deep desire to pretend that the United States retains the institutional capacity to stop a further slide into authoritarianism. We are hurtling down the slippery slope. — PolitiTweet.org

@benedictevans @fxshaw @benyt @verge How many children in cages do you think is too many? — PolitiTweet.org

@benedictevans @fxshaw @benyt @verge They are different. And one of them is the first step to the other. — PolitiTweet.org

@gaskill_jr @sarahjeong Right, so you think “a lot” — PolitiTweet.org

@mulasien @verge It’s our house and we moderate strictly. There are many other places to comment — PolitiTweet.org
nilay patel @reckless
These two paragraphs from @sarahjeong today are basically an inkblot test for how much authoritarianism you are willing to tolerate in America. And it seems like for some people the answer is: a lot. https://t.co/lGbrVL7PBO https://t.co/0dtoFpetRk — PolitiTweet.org

@benedictevans @fxshaw @benyt @verge I am sure the children in cages are happy to know there are more people being treated inhumanely elsewhere — PolitiTweet.org

Trump going after WeChat / Tencent is a lot different than going after TikTok — Tencent is an absolute force in gaming, movies, and music. @345triangle explains, in a story that started by just making a list. Top Gun! https://t.co/09owrnLgc5 https://t.co/wP174YYPRn — PolitiTweet.org

The two Verge desks that crossover most often lately are our policy team and our creators / platforms team. Our hero this morning a clear example of why: https://t.co/4T7TRkpMdT — PolitiTweet.org

Trump just signed another EO targeting Tencent’s WeChat so excited to see how this company retaliates with its massive movie and gaming investments — PolitiTweet.org

I hope Barron isn’t playing League of Legends or Fortnite because China’s Tencent owns Riot Games outright and 40 percent of Epic
