I think Twitter is actually the best way to deal with the alt right. Since bad dems learned that having celebs lecture people make it impossible for Hillary to lose!

Yudo posted:This is asinine. Civil rights, gay rights, and the reemergence of the new "old" American left are a product of or were enabled by the freedom of speech reinterpretation post 1960s. What? No, sorry, let me rephrase that: what? I don't recall the civil Rights movement getting all that much help from free speech, and even expressly nonviolent civil rights leaders like MLK faced both legal and illegal government suppression on a regular basis. Civil disobedience - engaging in their protest actions whether they were legal or not - was a key part of the nonviolent civil rights movement. MLK spent time in the Birmingham jail (where he wrote a certain famous letter) because he violated a court order that essentially said he had to stop protesting in Birmingham - and yes, that conviction was later appealed to the Supreme Court, which upheld it. To say that the civil rights movement was helped by or dependent on free speech requires a special level of ignorance, though I guess I shouldn't be surprised given how many people think all the black people just lined up and asked nicely for their basic Constitutional rights.

At first I expected false equivocation with Seattle's Lenin statue on private land, then I read further and thought it was all right, then I got toChelsea Clinton posted:As I’ve said, these movements have always been viral; there will be plenty of copycats, and some of them will be silly or self-serving, especially those organized by students who imagine that changing a building’s name changes something real. I think that changing the name of a Jefferson Davis Building on campus is just as important as tearing down these statues. You don't pass by the physical presence of someone that was important to the Confederacy, but you have to refer to the building while discussing how to get from A to B. That keeps the memory alive as much, if not more, than the statue. People that are infamous for their acts of hate deserve even less recognition in our daily lives than the relative nobodies of history, like President Chester Arthur. But sure, call people who are protesting it "silly" so you can keep looking down from your high horse. Maybe I should try to cobble together something that's at least a page and see if I can get any anonymous op-eds submitted to any newspapers in lieu of these scrawls that are only accepted because they're from a former president's adult child. https://twitter.com/washingtonpost/status/828497454932848640 I don't think the middle can, by definition, be edgy unless you are referring to a very narrow middle like something balanced on top of the spine of a book. galenanorth has issued a correction as of 16:39 on Aug 26, 2017 |

Sin-interest, that is what centrist is more like. Only a person envolped in the cloak of sin would draw a comparison so crude to push a message so venal in times that are so desperate for so many.
