(Takes a deep breath)
We obviously need to have a talk about the fact that most hackers are pretty socially liberal and personal liberty driven. That means we typically fall in line on ideals with libertarian and civil liberties organizations and pundits.
It seems that some people are just discovering that occasionally techbro and traditional libertarians push things at those orgs to an extreme that not only do we not support and have to call out, but even the good people working there object to.
You do not need to be a universal apologist for those organizations because they mostly do good stuff. It’s unbecoming. Endorsing very bad stuff and fascist enabling is in fact, super bad. It needs to be resoundingly condemned, immediately.

Reply to Sarah Ferris @sarahnferris on X (https://x.com/pjcoyle/status/1880690496324178207) about possible discharge petition already being threatened in the House – “Amazing that we are hearing talk of a discharge petition this early in the session. Just shows that moderate Republicans may be able to accomplish more than their radical counterparts in the 119th.”
