@gleick She should have just paraphrased the entire thing.

@edsudden The news is completely blacked out on this now, so we really need to be boosting the signal ourselves.

@redsad I love this folk punk band.

@ProjectFearlessness I don't think those goals are disparate. The idea is that these people need consequences and since prosecution seems to be off the table, at least they could lose their seats and be ostracized by society writ large. Exile is a powerful tool... It means the parts of society that protect you no longer protect you and that makes them more vulnerable to further consequences. I think we should be pushing in all ways possible to remove these people from anything that allows them to be normalized. If we can change the political systems that protect these people, then it puts potential prosecution or other consequences back on the table.

@ProjectFearlessness The mass abuse of women is political. It's systemic as the Epstein files are clearly showing. This is allowed to exist as de facto policy since leaders of both political parties were involved and until recently, protecting each other from this being publicly scrutinized or even legally scrutinized.
