    @jakebackpack @edroso One really has to appreciate that the naming convention that came from the French Revolution needs to go. We keep coding people like Chait, Yglesias, and Barro as "liberal" or "Democractic," when they're social arch-reactionaries with funny hats on. @maplecocaine/1626622933492801538

      @jakebackpack @edroso Indeed, the only sunlight between a Chait and a Rufo seems to be where they think the serviceable electoral consensus is to push those they don't like out of society -- or worse. @whstancil/1626371106302054402?s=20

        @jakebackpack @edroso That said, I may have to yield to Will’s read of this, which is honestly most likely given what we know. For instance, Chait is no insurrectionist, but boy did he go to bat with easily disproved lies for James Bennett and Tom Cotton in their collaboration. Debate-club jerk then. @whstancil/1626691038290104339
