This is kind of a joke so I don't want to drag it too hard but accepting this frame of child safety in the first place is stupid. That's not the argument. The argument is that we end up adding to the risk profile of everyone while providing extremely imperfect and incomplete protection.

I do not think that a bunch of extremely online weirdos on a niche microblogging website are the right people to ask if social media is harmful for children. Oh, you were online as a kid and you were fine? Are you sure about that? Because you’re here now and look at all of us.

They've built this massive fundraising and communications platform and fancy themselves kingmakers but when anyone asks them to explain what any of that is FOR they just scream and cry and shit themselves like infants. What a disgusting waste of oxygen. Get the fuck out of the way old man.

And let me be clear: I don’t care if you’re progressive, moderate, or conservative. I’ve worked with Democrats across the ideological spectrum. We didn’t always agree, but we understood that building a stronger Democratic Party was part of the job.

In case you missed it, the England fans at the world cup are enthusiastically chanting: "He's fat, with piles He's in the Epstein files Trump the Cuunt Trump the Cuuuuuntt!!!" I want to know how the pearl-clutching republican senators are going to handle it if they win.

"He's fat.. with piles..he's in the Epstein files...
 Trump the cuuunt...Trump the cuuuunnt!!"
