Anyway, moral points aside if you let me take out either file sharing or consolidation of media corporations, I have very little doubt which one would help authors more. Clearchannel was fifty times worse for musicians than Napster was.

the part that really pisses me off is that these are the same fucking people who were pissed off at the nyt last week when they were banging the drum against biden. but when the topic is transgender people? how dare you!

The Right doesn’t take orders from the NYT, or respect its opinions, but is happy to use the NYT as “nonpartisan” bullets in its weapons. Transphobic liberals, however, *do* take a lot of guidance from the NYT, and heed its reporting on the subject. It’s an arms-dealer to some, commander to others.

You're about as black as my left buttcheek, freak. Don't you have stuff to download off 8kun?

Dave is not going to put even one finger in your arse for defending him, sycophant

do you know what it feels like to look at the news headlines every day for literally years and see stories about how you're a disgusting subhuman pervert? no? maybe shut the fuck up then @daveweigel.bsky.social

The way journalists at this level primarily have solidarity with each other makes me pretty glad I'm not a real journalist

i'm starting to suspect that there isn't a single op-ed writer on the internet who isn't a little spiteful asshole.

This "why don't you, a marginalised person, use your real name on the internet?" shit is extremely old. I frankly refuse to believe that you're so stupid that you can't work this out. Like come on, we're all old here, putting your real name on the internet used to be seen as a huge security risk.
