![During the ratification debates, Senator Cowan took aim
at the Roma people too, characterizing them as undeserving
of birthright citizenship because they “wander[ed] in
gangs,” “infest[ed] society,” and “impos[ed] upon the simple
and weak everywhere.”49 And again, Senator Conness dismissed Senator Cowan’s prejudices: “The only invasion of
Pennsylvania within my recollection was an invasion very
much worse and more disastrous to the State, and more to
be feared and more feared, than that of Gypsies. It was an
invasion of rebels [at Gettysburg].](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:lzlqyldh7nfc34pfffvd24ko/bafkreihrli2ghfantwmdgc4pk4rr4ddt4ajq4xgnggxhs4qv4hojeppmpi)

Do you understand that liberals don't dominate msm they used to? look at CBS, WaPo and LA Times. It's crucial that there's independent outlets for progressives and liberals now and you just wanna further marginalize them?
@fatalist.bsky.social · 2mo agoHamish McKenzie is using the cut of the money he takes from you and Heather Cox Richardson and Dan Rather and using it to subsidize Darryl Cooper and Chris Rufo and Mike Cernovich.
Here's why the Substack boycott is totally moronic, spelled out: Currently, there are some small far-right blogs and many giant and mid-sized liberal and progressive ones. If the boycotters had their way, the liberal stacks would leave, and that would leave the platform entirely to the far right
If you are "substack is a nazi website" person I'm glad you don't subscribe to me because you're too stupid to read.
Once again this is so fucking stupid. The leading substacks are predominantly liberal and left-leaning.
Peter Butler@peter-butler.bsky.social · 2mo agoI'm open to arguments, but I don't read any Substack blogs anymore 🤷 There's a bluesky labeler that lets me avoid them completely www.theguardian.com/media/2026/f...
This is the dumbest fucking opinion on here, a place with many dumb fucking opinions. All the biggest substacks are superlibs—Heather Cox Richardson is pro Nazi? Paul Krugman? gtfoh
Is Graham Platner a Nazi? No, but he's not not a Nazi, either. substack.com/home/post/p-...

They really are doing "say what you like about the tents of National Socialism but at least it's an ethos"
indigoskycat.bsky.social@indigoskycat.bsky.social · 2mo agoYou know, they are right. Stop comparing donald DUCKing with Adolf Hitler. Hitler at least served. Hitler was a soldier who was awarded for his courage under fire. Both are incredibly evil monsters but one actually served his country, then later destroyed it.
