It's time to leave. And if you're smart, you'll leave, too. There's nothing left here for anyone who isn't pro dictatorship, and your content will never grow unless you kiss the ring. It's okay to say, "enough is enough" and cut the strings. I am. I hope to see you elsewhere ❤️

I've thought about it, and while I am not deleting my account, I will not be returning to Twitter. I had refused to cede ground - we were here first! - but the truth is we can't stay here in good conscience knowing it's a platform of misinformation just because of our followers.

@atrupar Yeah. Having JP from Grandma's Boy overseeing a department was a solid fucking choice.

Steve Bannon: "President Trump in his first cabinet picks has shown that we are going to deconstruct the administrative state."

@BlackKnight10k Always have. It's their brand.

So Republicans love pedophiles now?

The good place actually let me update my PFP. Join me!

@_celia_bedelia_ The sad part is he has zero interest in women's bodies. He is just taking his self hatred out on us.

Honestly, this man deserves way more than doxxing

@Angry_Staffer I'm just stopping back in to find who I missed following over therr

The mass exodus here is crazy. You can also find me at at the good place:

It's.... it's OG twitter, y'all.

While I'm not leaving, the doom and gloom (and swath of nazis and asshole blue checks) has made me seek... bluer skies. You can find me there @ fiercelyeverafter And I hope you do find me there! I'd love to build a better community. 💙

@esrtweet Could have saved yourself an hour and typed, "I support pedophiles because I, too, am a pedophile"

We need to talk about the accusation "Matt Gaetz is a pedophile." I know little about Matt Gaetz, and don't have an opinion about whether he is a qualified nominee to be Attorney General. I'm also not here to make a pro-Trump or anti-Trump political point; I want to address an issue that's bigger than the political flap of the week. I know a lot about the manipulation of language. There's a nasty one going on here that people need to be aware of, because when a propaganda tactic is successful it tends to get repeated. There isn't a single good term in English for people who are post-pubertal but below the legal age of consent or majority; for the rest of this discussion, I'm going to refer to them as "tweeners". I'm going to stipulate one thing for purposes of this rant: when Matt Gaetz was an adult man, he had sex with a tweener girl (the specific allegation I keep hearing is that she was 17; note however that in a majority of U.S. jurisdictions age of consent is 16). If that's not true, the analysis I'm about to do stops being very interesting. Now let's talk about the word "pedophile". If you ask your friendly neighborhood AI what that word means it's going to tell you that a pedophile is a person who desires to have sex with prepubescent children. Unless the society you live in has a major totalitarian episode, it is not likely that you will ever encounter anything that is as evil, sick, and degenerate as what pedophiles do to children. The concept horrifies people. I'm going to assume it horrifies you. Because the concept is horrifying, "pedophile" can be used as a propaganda word of power. Now let's get back to the case at hand. How likely is a 17-year old girl to be prepubescent? Note that by asking this question I'm not trying to make an excuse for Gaetz's behavior. There are reasons we put a taboo on sexual contact between adult men and nubile women below the age of majority. I am stipulating that Matt Gaetz is probably guilty of statutory rape (not certain because of jurisdictional variations) and should be in jail. But. The distinction between pedophilia and what I stipulate Gaetz was doing (technically, "ephebophilia") is an important one. Ephebophilia ranges from being a mere malum prohibitum to a minor crime, depending largely on how sexually and psychologically mature the victim is. It's not the deeply perverted, sick, damaging thing pedophilia is. People who run around yelling "Matt Gaetz is a pedophile" are doing something harmful and wrong, and should be called on it. They are confusing behaviors with very different moral weights, and they are doing it to mess with your head. Their aim is to use the current atmosphere of moral panic about pedophilia among the rich and powerful to recruit you into a consensus demand that Matt Gaetz be lynched. This is dark propaganda. This is bad. It is not very relevant to my logic whether that moral panic is justified or not. I'm not even going to state a position on that, because it would be distracting. I'm also not going to state a position on what the upper age limit on tweeners should be, because that's not relevant either. You should ask yourself: do you want to live in the kind of society where men who have sex with tweener girls can be equated with men who rape infants, and destroyed that way? I advise against this. I'm not going to write down a detailed argument here, except to point out that it would create an opening for people who want to normalize actual pedophilia. In fact, it may already be doing that, and I wish I were sure that nobody is doing this intentionally. There are some very evil people with very long time horizons out there. If you don't want to live in the kind of society where power word "pedophile" can be used to lynch people who are not in fact pedophiles, you should (1) stop abusing the word if you were doing so, and (2) talk down other people when they do it. Thank you for your attention.

@HumanityChad Wait, isn't this what y'all call grooming? But not if it's my straights. 🙄

This teacher's emotional confession surprised everyone in his classroom

@Angry_Staffer He doesn't care. He is Trump's widdle boy toy now.

@chucktodd ? Do you think this is a joke?

These confirmation hearings may just save cable TV for the short term.

get to know your new republican cabinet

@NewsWire_US Press X to doubt.

SENATOR SUSAN COLLINS WILL OPPOSE GAETZ NOMINATION — PUNCHBOWL

@alfranken It's both.

The speed at which these nominations have been announced suggests that perhaps there hasn't been a great deal of vetting. Or perhaps Trump's pool of options is…not deep.

@MaxwellFrostFL Pedos stick together.

Holy shit. Trump will nominate Matt Gaetz as Attorney General. The man who was at the center of a sex trafficking probe. God help us.

@RonFilipkowski Trump doesn't know what attorney means, that's why he hired Habba. Doesn't know what asylum means, that's why he talked nonstop about Hannibal Lecter. Total fucking idiot.

Shouldn’t the Attorney General be someone who has actually practiced law at some point?

@ArtCandee No.

Senate Majority Leader John Thune says he expects Democrats to cooperate to shove through appointees and confirm Donald Trump's appointees through the Senate. 🙄

@Zig_Fleetwood2 I'm done with this timeline.
