Just a reminder: Kirk’s organization established the Professor Watchlist, which even the NYT framed as a threat to academic freedom.
I don’t get why ppl keep describing him a a good-faith debater.
One can say “Kirk should not have been murdered” (which is true!) without engaging in hagiography.
i think anyone saying he practiced politics the right way or that we should continue his work should first have to read out loud his last days worth of posts to someone they love who doesnt know who he is
the real glory of world war two was that it involved a warrior cult being ground down and beaten to a pulp by people who would rather have been doing something else.

Yes, the stakes here are large. Very large.
They say elephants don’t hide in mouse holes but allowing a man who attempted to overthrow the government full immunity for having done so, and erasing the part of the constitution that clearly disqualifies him because of small technical concerns is about the biggest goddamn elephant there is.

democrats are going to be dealing with anti-trans hate until they either
- nut the fuck up and defend these people from bigoted attacks
- concede to every republican attack on the issue, inevitably leading to the total eradication of trans people from all public life
literally the only 2 options
usually if you ask experts why an empire fell they’ll say it’s nuanced and multifaceted, so i think it’s kind of cool that with America future historians will get to just say like “oh they took the idiot train to moronsville”
