New Taibbi: The American Left Is Destroying Itself
Poast new message in this thread
Date: June 12th, 2020 9:55 PM Author: Balding step-uncle's house quadroon https://taibbi.substack.com/p/the-news-media-is-destroying-itself (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4559275&forum_id=2#40407063) |
Date: June 12th, 2020 10:00 PM Author: Submissive Purple Voyeur this nails it
The leaders of this new movement are replacing traditional liberal beliefs about tolerance, free inquiry, and even racial harmony with ideas so toxic and unattractive that they eschew debate, moving straight to shaming, threats, and intimidation. They are counting on the guilt-ridden, self-flagellating nature of traditional American progressives, who will not stand up for themselves, and will walk to the Razor voluntarily. |

Taibbi injects plenty of opinion here, and the commenters still lap it up and label it "journalism" rather than "cultural criticism" or "opinion" or whatever you want to call it (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4559275&forum_id=2#40407517) |

Beyond that, a sampling:
"The leaders of this new movement are replacing traditional liberal beliefs about tolerance, free inquiry, and even racial harmony with ideas so toxic and unattractive "
"They are counting on the guilt-ridden, self-flagellating nature of traditional American progressives"
"They’ve conned organization after organization into empowering panels to search out thoughtcrime"
Beyond that, how low is your IQ? "Some of what he said was fact-based, so therefore it's not an opinion piece. Now I'm going to no-true-scotsman his assertions based on 'saliency'"

Who do I call?” When Bender, who is white, answered, “I know that comes from a place of privilege,” questions popped to mind. Does privilege mean one should let someone break into one’s home, or that one shouldn’t ask that hypothetical question? (I was genuinely confused).”
I don’t know why this particular bit stood out as both infuriating and funny. I am sure someone at CNN asked this woman what the fuck she was on about, right?

Date: June 13th, 2020 1:32 PM Author: Razzle-dazzle abnormal church gay wizard I'm not saying he's a "right winger" or a Republican, I'm saying he's a conservative. Conservative just means that he wants to maintain things the way they are now - conserve. You can switch from being a progressive to a conservative without changing a single one of your ideas.
Like one of Michael Tracey's responses to the criticism was "b-b-but I marched for gay marriage!" OK but in 2020 gay marriage is the status quo. If you're pro gay marriage, you're a conservative. That wasn't true in 2002 but it is now.
If you think gay marriage is fake you're no longer a conservative. You're a reactionary. |

Date: June 13th, 2020 9:37 PM Author: Lime floppy trump supporter ive got two issues with this, first, that may be the dictionary definition of 'conservative' but it's not how it's used in a political context, so it's misleading to apply it here. similarly, you wouldn't point to trump tweeting about freedom and say he's a "liberal" since "liberal means you want liberty".
Second, guys like taibbi have plenty of things they wouldn't want to 'conserve' in american politics, particularly the surveillance state, america's foreign policy orthodoxy, corporate power, banking deregulation, etc. seems inaccurate to paint him as a 'conservative' just because cancel culture is high profile these days and he would want to "conserve" the old leftist idea of open dialogue, while at the same time pressing for massive changes in other significant political areas. |

actually that's exactly what I'd say. The definition of liberal is the desire to maximize individual autonomy. There's a reason they're called *liber*tarians. Modern political discourse misuses the words conservative/liberal/progressive in a way that's incoherent and unhelpful. The dictionary definitions are better. |

It's amazing how many on the left fail to have a remotely accurate picture of what "typical" on each side looks like (as far as generalization can be made), or the basic characteristics and correlates - that eg income is correlated with propensity to vote R even *within* blue states, and so on.
It's okay to mock poor stupid republicans because they're white, while the left's "deplorables" are completely off limits culturally. The left dominates the lowest income brackets - yet your typical lib thinks Republican means farmer while Democrat means urban elite academic. Nevermind eg voters making over 100k are a majority Republican demographic even in CA / NY / MA etc. Republicans have a major branding problem - instead of MC / UMC white family in the suburbs they're branded as redneck farmer idiots voting against their own interests - it never ceases to amaze me how many IRL libs I talk to who buy this bs. |

Date: June 13th, 2020 11:13 AM Author: alcoholic fear-inspiring locus puppy Each passing day sees more scenes that recall something closer to cult religion than politics. White protesters in Floyd’s Houston hometown kneeling and praying to black residents for “forgiveness… for years and years of racism” are one thing, but what are we to make of white police in Cary, North Carolina, kneeling and washing the feet of Black pastors? What about Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer kneeling while dressed in “African kente cloth scarves”?
There is symbolism here that goes beyond frustration with police or even with racism: these are orgiastic, quasi-religious, and most of all, deeply weird scenes, and the press is too paralyzed to wonder at it. In a business where the first job requirement was once the willingness to ask tough questions, we’ve become afraid to ask obvious ones. |

Date: June 17th, 2020 11:45 AM Author: Histrionic Dragon honest Q for those of you who've been outside mom's basement, have actually lived amongst enough blacks to know:
this cornball brother isn't BLACK the way steph curry isn't black / the way lebron is black. what are the chances that a police encounter for him actually goes south? i'm sure some surly pig having a bad day will microaggress any soft white collar worker, regardless of race--but will they actually mess with him like a real thug, like big floyd? |

Date: June 17th, 2020 11:50 AM Author: Blue Mediation Den Imo its roughly the same. Cops hate well off black people and are known to try to take them down a peg. Been going on for decades.
I'm light skinned and a white collar worker and I've had cops attempt to bait me into fights. |
