My biggest endorsement thus far. (Structural editing is sometimes called developmental editing or content editing.)

Well, you were wrong about it being "stupid" to say that statues of ex-slaves who fought against slavery would get torn down. Genius.
(Inevitable response: "But that's not Harriet Tubman, tho!")

@LibertyLudens Steer into it. "The closer you get to 'real communism', the more gulags and and mass graves there are. The closer you get to 'real capitalism', the more prosperity and quality of life goes up. Weird, right?"
English
Need some advice.
How best to avoid sounding like the Libertarian version of "real communism never been tried" when discussing how we don't actually have free market capitalism currently?
English
@ruqqus Better to be down and fixing, than "up" and not letting me post a single comment all day. (Seriously, I tried a dozen times across several hours, and it never stuck.) Hope this gets stuff in working order.

@ruqqus 503 errors a ton this morning, where things had been awesomely smooth for at LEAST a day or two. Just FYI.

It's cute how she zeroed in one the one person she had a talking point about. And also how arrogantly ignorant she is about that talking point.
English
@jilliancyork @EliLake They pulled down a statue of Cervantes. Who was a slave for five years. They tore down one of Jefferson, who wrote the first anti-slavery law in the US. And Washington, who freed his slaves.
Go on, tell us again how "stupid" it is.

@checkmatestate Zero, because the Tiananmen protesters were completely peaceful and non-destructive.
The rioters and looters here started the violence days ago.
English
What are the chances we see something like this in America in the next few weeks?
English
Protesters don't burn down buildings of innocent people, loot stores, or swarm and beat anyone who voices dissent.
The Tiananmen protests were actually peaceful. So was the Umbrella Movement in 2014. You are tweeting literally the antithesis of the truth.
Chris Murphy 🟧@ChrisMurphyCT
Turning the army on protestors is what dictatorships do. It’s literally the antithesis of America. Republicans of good faith and decency need cannot let their party’s position become pushing for an American Tiananmen Square.
English
The Tiananmen protesters never burned anything.
The Tiananmen protesters never mobbed and hurt anybody.
The Tiananmen protesters were ACTUALLY PEACEFUL.
Evan McMullin is either a fucking moron, or a fucking liar.

@EmpressRandom @Indignity_jones No, a Freudian slip is when you say one thing but you're really thinking about a mother.

”Why did he want to transfer to your mother?”
“Mom was holding a rake! HAL thought it was an extra appendage. That’s what made her different.”

@Indignity_jones @tedcruz @scrowder @prageru And while you may quibble over Youtube's targeting (ah, the joy of muddying the waters to hide bad faith actions), Patreon openly cut people off for politics. And so did MasterCard at least once. And if I recall correctly, Citibank. And Paypal.

YouTube’s not hiding what they’re doing. They’re censoring conservatives. “Demonetizing” them. Ask @scrowder and @prageru #BigTechBigBrother
Scott Adams@ScottAdamsSays
On my YouTube channel, where I post Periscope replays, my audience grows every month while my ad revenue declines every month. I'm generally demonetized immediately (for no reason) and reversed on manual review every time, but only after most traffic has passed.
English
@Indignity_jones @tedcruz @scrowder @prageru Scott Adams, the original poster, is nobody's neo-con.
As for "persecution complex", the overculture has been openly hostile to anyone not sufficiently left since the '80s. Now that people's livelihoods are being targeted for political wrongthink, it's not "false".
English
You know, usually when you helm a high-profile flop, studios are less quick to announce they've hired you again. Particularly for the same sort of thing that you flopped with in the first place.
English
@Indignity_jones @tedcruz @scrowder @prageru Yes, to everyone, but some are getting it more than others. Scott Adams is "conservative" only in that he says positive things about Trump, but that's enough to count, in Silicon Valley.

”When HAL merged with me my hair started growing thicker. I looked at it under the microscope. It’s nearly twice as thick as other girls’ hair. I guess HAL keeps it full of water.”
