"It’s fine to be mean to racists and ghouls"



"long with an inexplicable spike in soft-focus profiles of racists, scolding op-eds about how college students are ruining free speech, and demands that we respect decrepit, brain-dead Republican senators in spite of their monstrous beliefs and actions, we’ve seen an increase in sanctimonious public pleas from journalists to liberals, begging that they stop “bullying” the party that controls all three branches of government. This, of course, has won liberal outlets precisely zero fans from the Trump camp so far... 

In that last line — which references the ratio of (typically angry) replies to (typically supportive) retweets — he casts himself as a martyr for decency. Because he weeps over the prospect of Don Jr.’s obscenely wealthy heirs having to split their time between two penthouse apartments, he is superior to those of us who don’t give a shit. This is the morality of children."



FB: "Aaron Schlossberg and Don Jr. would never return such a favor in a million years — because they are narcissistic sociopaths. Conservatives aren’t going to stop loathing journalists if they say enough nice things about the people rounding up immigrant children and trying to start wars, and even the most milquetoast #Resistance liberals find this sort of thing incredibly off-putting."
