@MattPolProf You sure the research agrees with you, Matt? I'm highly skeptical.

@FiSurgi The claim isn't that there are no high-achieving blacks. If it were, you would disprove the thesis. But it's not. And surely you know that.

@MattPolProf The belief that we can simply "redistribute" wealth and create a utopia on Earth is a myth that never dies. Take all the wealth on Earth today, redistribute it into 8.3 billion shares tomorrow, and then what? Wealth does not create itself.

@aibytekat The comments here are as wild as they are depressing. We are truly becoming more and more stupid.

My advice, Katyayani: don't read 'em.

@FinchelsteinF You missed Musk's point, which is about a logical fallacy, not Hitler and whether or not he was a socialist.

[Safecracker @davemcomie]

@BulwarkOnline "Fairly and consistently" would disallow race or ethnicity or sex from playing any role whatsoever. That is Hegseth's point, which you inelegantly elide.

[Safecracker @davemcomie]

@wil_da_beast630 Of the vagina-have-not variety, of course.

That this movement was ever taken seriously will never not blow my mind.

@BreitbartNews When you get preferential treatment for most of your life, and it gets taken away, equal treatment then feels like discrimination.

[Safecracker @davemcomie]

@mattyglesias The larger point is that property taxes should be abolished.

[Safecracker @davemcomie]

@JustTheTweets17 What is wrong with you?

[Safecracker @davemcomie]

@AaronBlake I guess after decades of preference, non-discrimination feels like discrimination.

For many of us normally dovish types, Ed, the justification for the Iran conflict is cumulative: (a) they had/have nuclear ambitions, (b) they are the largest sponsor of terrorism around the globe each and every year, and (c) their leaders have preached "Death to America" for nearly a half century.

I'm not big on preemptive military strikes, but this one is 100% defensible, whether or not Team Trump is able to coherently articulate the justification.

@marceelias You seem to specialize in non sequiturs, Marc. That's quite odd for an attorney, don't you think?

[Safecracker @davemcomie]

@wil_da_beast630 About dam time!

[Safecracker @davemcomie]

@conor64 @wesyang Exactly right. On a related note, I would pay a hefty admissions fee to watch Kamala vs AOC in the World Word Salad finale for the 2026 season.

@peterboghossian I suspect Timur is talking about self-described "liberals" who aren't actually liberal at all, but illiberal and just don't know it.

[Safecracker @davemcomie]

@conor64 @tonyannett Agreed, but it'd be tricky to pull it off.

[Safecracker @davemcomie]

@conor64 @megbasham @mermazingtracy Conor, there is a difference between an actual assassination attempt and a theoretical plan that gets foiled.

Come ON.

[Safecracker @davemcomie]

@conor64 @SwipeWright Agreed, but it's more a vibe shift than a policy shift. And it's probably in response to a far left that is shrill, violent, and becoming mainstream.
