@Burlydee@MattyMilkman@mattyglesias@amimevalepitito@angelo_sibilio@MattZeitlin Itβs fine if heβs not to your taste. But I find it strange how certain types (not saying you, but some in these threads and elsewhere) resent how influential he is, while simultaneously be suspicious that a good number of people subscribes to his newsletter.
@Burlydee@MattyMilkman@mattyglesias@amimevalepitito@angelo_sibilio@MattZeitlin I find it weird that that baseline assumption about an objectively influential and widely read political writer is they couldnβt find 20k subscribers in a country of 330M + a world interested in US politics, it must be payola.
Iβm a subscriber btw.
@tarunlochib Itβs objectively more difficult to get hits in baseball than cricket. You can compare success rates for batters in the two sports and itβs clear. The flip side is that defensive success rates are much lower in cricket.
@vortmax79@Kellen_Browning The article makes it clear that tactics like this are common, legal, and employed by both parties in Alaksa, with the GOP backing a vote-siphoner as recently as 2 years ago against Mary Peltola herself.

@Ike_Saul@JournalistFact1 There is a difference between being mad and the president instructing the DOJ to launch a frivolous lawsuit intended on boosting the chances of the GOP winning the seat.
@pepsiskateboard@willsommer Foid is obviously a RW term. But I see it being used ironically here, just because it pairs nicely with Malfoy.
Beyond that, its just an objective fact that i see the meme used by lots of non-RW people.
