It’s important to keep the *verification* aspect, though; i.e., people who get verified are *real people* (or real organizations, etc.). Verified anonymous accounts—bots or those without skin in the game, and perhaps with bad motivations—defeats the purpose of the checkmark. — PolitiTweet.org

Ironically, Sigmund Freud, who revolutionized our concept of the psyche and sexuality, was, in real life, a thoroughly boring and bourgeois paterfamilias. — PolitiTweet.org

At the very least, there is a secret resentment against life that lies at the bottom of all these grand philosophical systems, which are, in many cases, beginning at least with Plato, subversive and conspiratorial attempts to radically alter the world. — PolitiTweet.org

I struggle to name a great philosopher or artist who had a happy family life, not just in the Age of Enlightenment. Nietzsche was right that this wasn’t a coincidence. Dissatisfaction, resentment, and loneliness can be channeled into great things—or very bad things! — PolitiTweet.org

@jeffdeist You might remember that Lew Rockwell counsels that all conspiracy theories are great, for the most part, because even if they’re wrong—perhaps especially if they’re wrong—they lead the believer to hate the government and thus creates a new “libertarian.” — PolitiTweet.org

"Chi-merica"—"designed in California, assembled in China, sold at Walmart"—stretches back to the 1970s. It was a political project before it became a economic juggernaut. — PolitiTweet.org

@RokoMijic @KoryosLeader The Dissent Right loves a good scape goat, to absolve them of critical thinking and self-awareness. “If it wasn’t for Spencer,” they say, “a golden swastika flag would proudly wave above the White House.” — PolitiTweet.org

Perhaps it’s best understood as an addiction—an addiction to resentment. And most of the online activists of the far Right would personally benefit from being deplatformed and going “cold turkey.” — PolitiTweet.org

Perhaps there’s a certain virtue, or at least necessity, of going nuts on behalf of a higher cause. But for the Dissident Right, there is no purpose or meaning, nothing beyond yelling at Jewish journalists and casually dropping N-bombs. — PolitiTweet.org

The Dissident Right wants “freedom” to revive the long-dead good old days. I doubt Musk will make Twitter the Wild West once again, but if he did, all it would reveal is the utter uselessness and meaninglessness of the troll monsters. — PolitiTweet.org

So what does “freeing Twitter” mean in the minds of the Alt-Right, Dissident Right, New Right, or whatever the hell they’re calling themselves these days? The right to lie? To act like a psycho teenager? The right to harass people? To actively and willfully pollute discourse? — PolitiTweet.org

While I admit to some nostalgia, my overall feeling today is contempt. The crazy trolling of 2015-16 was serving a larger goal. But Trump is out of office now and was a crude failure while in power. The crazy trolling accomplished little and persists as an end in itself. — PolitiTweet.org

To run such incompetent campaigns and garner millions of votes, Trump needed that “je ne sais quoi,” that something extra, beyond his own celebrity. In 2016, it was the online Alt-Right (as Hilary recognized). By 2020, the AR had been dumped in favor of the larger QAnon movement. — PolitiTweet.org
