One of the things to come from GamerGate was the gamification of torturing real, live women...hounding them out of their homes, making them look over their shoulders for years. It was treated as a joke, nbd, the work of a few bad apples--as all terrorism against women is--& that failure leads here.

Michael Tracey is actively attempting to dox Jane Doe in the Cornell 7 rape case

Michael Tracey : If you happen to know who this Cornell "Jane Doe" is, get in touch and I would be happy to publish her name and identifying information. And yes -- this is 100% permitted under the First Amendment, whatever threats or emotional blackmail people might want to deploy

"Report" me for what, exactly? Save your breath, scumbag. Sorry you hate the First Amendment so much. Her identity is obviously newsworthy at this point, and I will take extreme pleasure in reporting it. (Not "doxing" -- that's a total canard)

We're ten years into this and I still find it striking the degrees to which political reporters will go (esp at the NYT) to be deferential to Trump in a way they would never ever do for anyone else, least of all a Democrat

Thermostatic backlash is one of the most absolutely rock-solid fundamentals of American politics. It’s why I made my pinned post prediction way back when. And yet because our media isn’t motivated to actually educate, they cannot center their narrative around it.

I was expecting this to be an embellishment but no, he's actually fucking quoted in the article as saying that.

The Situation Room connected the call. Biden jumped in. “Bibi, man, what the fuck are you doing?” He gripped the phone tight. “You think I’m Santa Claus? No Santa in Israel, pal.” When Netanyahu asked what he meant, Biden said he could cut off military aid to Israel with the snap of a finger, leaving the country on its own. Netanyahu retorted that Israel would defend itself even without the United States. (We later learned that he concluded from this call that we were cutting military supplies.)

One way to support struggling working class men would be to reform how unemployment insurance is financed so it no longer incentivizes firms to not hire entry level men. aibm.org/policy/fix-u...

aibm.org

Fix unemployment insurance to help young men into work

Experience rating in unemployment insurance taxes deters companies from hiring young men, who are viewed as being at higher risk of layoffs.

In a normal administration, a midterms rebuke would be met with some kind of recalibration. The party either needs to set itself up for a reelection or make sure the next nominee has space to run. Short of Dems impeaching and removing Trump, he’s only going to keep digging deeper.
