The “white discomfort ❄️” bill passed another Florida GOP controlled committee yesterday, but not without this powerful testimony from Rep. @RamonAlexander.

Putting the full thing here so future generations, if allowed, can see who fought against whitewashing history. pic.twitter.com/S32limhfvT

1. He didn't apologize for the sentiment, rather a lack of "art". Nor is this the first time he's argued that non-white nominees' qualifications are inherently suspect.

2. Where is your call for him to exhibit grace in learning (more than a decade later) to knock this shit off? https://t.co/aQYXowXIiI

Trumpists are apparently still doing the "BUT THEM ROUTERS!" thing in Maricopa County, insisting that somehow the routers will contain the evidence of 2020 election hacking that all the other analysis has failed to uncover.

Technically, this list is absurd. https://t.co/yr5nqFUCly

Glen Youngkin’s approval rating is plummeting because he campaigned as Fred Rogers and is governing like Aaron Rodgers

If some Ivy League professor said that conservatives were inherently unqualified for some position due, you’d be screaming for their head on a pike.

But then, we already know that you consider your buddies exempt from ethical behavior. https://t.co/qdPbVvW6RN

Seriously. If they want something other than Maus, how about The Devil's Arithmetic?

You know, a story written by a Jewish woman, centering a Jewish protagonist, that doesn't shy away from the horrors of the Shoah and doesn't involve gentile saviors? https://t.co/MQOXQrF3Yq

Excellent. Hey BTW, any updates on how you're going to remedy your sexual abuse problem? Because y'all have dropped the ball on that several times now, and speaking as one of the nation's blind, whom you claim to speak for, enough's enough. twitter.com/NFB_voice/stat…

Conservative culture in 2022:

- we are offended the female M&M cartoon isn't sexier
- we are offended there isn't more sex in Disney movies
- we are offended by the naked mice at Auschwitz in MAUS

"Biden supported this bill in June which didn't pass until November which obviously means it's a failed promise that two months after the bill passed everything hadn't already been done"

This may not be the best defense to sounding ridiculous. https://t.co/moAizDT1YA

The issue with (a) is that it makes the mistake almost all critics of content moderation make: an assumption that *someone* must be reviewing *everything*. That's not how any of this works. https://t.co/Xj1qmpiuYa

This is dishonest bullshit. GG is not so dumb that he doesn't understand the difference between valid, if pointed, criticism and rape threats, but he's carefully trying to deny responsibility for his own egging on of assholes who do the latter, rather than former. pic.twitter.com/4yfRBVUCqQ

Odd when the only response to Shapiro's profound racism from his compatriots in right-wing legal academia is for them to jump on criticism of Georgetown for having hired someone who hasn't hidden it even before now, rather than tell him to maybe be less racist. https://t.co/O8hns3bWn1

This really does seem to be trading on the same "Jews are more concerned with/loyal to international Jewish interests than they are about the countries they live in" tropes as most antisemitism, just appending "but that's awesome because I like Israel too" at the end. https://t.co/dcaYRGhSv5

Yesterday was #HolocaustRemembranceDay. Today, my friend shared the horror of walking through Union Station in DC to find swastikas on every single column. Too many to count. This is not okay. Your Jewish friends are exhausted and need you as partners in calling out antisemitism. pic.twitter.com/g44X1AYGxw

Confederate flags in Canada have NOTHING to do with history and EVERYTHING to do with hate.
