Crucial point. Very possible that what I'm reporting here is the beginning of Rs starting to write off the Trump +3, +4, +5 districts and now starting to put money into the Trump +8, +9, +10, +12 districts to save those:

X is a nightmare site owned by a Nazi and I don't respect anyone who still posts their little jokes and shoots the shit there like it isn't a CSAM and harassment machine.
It doesn't help that X, the burnerverse's platform of choice, is famously subject to little moderation. Since Elon Musk acquired the social network in 2022, its algorithm has regularly boosted racist, misogynistic, and antisemitic content, making it the ideal petri dish for a coordinated harassment campaign. On X, it's extremely easy for defamatory or outright illegal content, such as Kowalski's NCII, to spread far and wide before someone can issue a complaint or file a takedown request. "The platforms tend to be pretty hands-off" says Ludwin. "They're also financially incentivized by followers, by views, by clicks ... they're making money off this." (X did not respond to WIRED'S request for comment.)

Americans may have to decide where the line is drawn between safety and privacy, or risk having technology make that call for them.

It is a sign of the total failure of our constitutional order that, a mere six years after we were all desperately praying for a miraculous scientific breakthrough to end the worst global pandemic in a century, that the President of the United States can do what he did today & face no consequences.

Yep. This is the clearest description of Karl Popper's rule I've found:
The Paradox of Tolerance disappears if you look at tolerance _not_ as a moral standard but as a social contract.

If someone does not abide by the terms of the contract, then they are not covered by it.

In other words: the intolerant are not following the rules of the social contract of mutual tolerance.

Since they have broken the terms of the contract, they are no longer covered by the contract, and their intolerance should not be tolerated.
