"I feel very strongly that we in the lefty world ask for perfection from everyone and are too often damning of those who we agree with 90 percent of the time, but might not agree with 10 percent of the time. Social media makes this worse; all those likes reinforce our most exclusive elements."

~ Erik Loomis

Amen. The silly purism and lack of solidarity of many lefties in face of rising fascism: just nutty.

“What I care about is that at a time when we need to start establishing means of accountability for a second Trump term, much of the Democratic world has chosen instead to wallow in false claims about the Trump investigation in order to make _Garland_ a scapegoat, rather than the guy directly responsible, John Roberts. It’s classical conspiracy thinking.”

"People have a strange vision of me. I’m going to set a few things straight real quick.

I was an anarchist pacifist two years ago, I was an anarchist pacifist two months ago, I’m an anarchist pacifist right now, and I probably will be one until I go to my grave.

[...] I will love you, and I will not be cool about it. I will never, ever, ever settle for your unjust and hateful world."
