Ppl could just wait 48 hours for his friends and family to say what “he got more political” means Other profiles and discord chats and whatever will prob drop. Instead ppl pick 2 bits of evidence - a t-shirt, a Halloween costume, a meme on a bullet - and decide THEY KNOW. They don’t, yet. RE:

Maybe if you’re 40 lol. Ask a middle school boy in your life what his favorite brainrot is. Things ppl in their 40s think of as “00s chan culture” are integrated in youth gaming culture at this point. The kids don’t know the etymology, which can be jarring. But memes for 🎃 are not weird to them. RE:

Things are pretty early but — Tyler Robinson, the guy arrested for the Charlie Kirk murder, doesn’t scream “extremely online nihilist” either. Going as a meme for Halloween is not weird. Irony culture isn’t always nihilistic. The need to have an immediate answer is a side effect of social media.
Bolsonaro was just found guilty. 🇧🇷 On Tuesday we dropped a Lawfare Daily episode: a 101 explainer on the trial, the Trump tariffs, and the intersection with tech policy. Hear from [@laismartins.com](

The content moderation screeching from House Republicans has always been the most transparent, opportunistic power game. After two years it is maybe, finally becoming clear; FIRE and others responded to this pretty instantaneously. RE:

What happened today is awful. People who fight against gun violence, people who loathe what Charlie Kirk stood for, must also condemn political violence. It’s a vicious cycle. This is a very dangerous moment.

Jenin Younes isn’t a free speech warrior taking on the government. She WAS the government. She worked for Jim Jordan interrogating academics denounced in his Twitter Files “censorship” hearings. Their committee came for college students. It got first amendment protected research shut down. RE:

They’re afraid to participate in the public square. They don’t know how to advocate for themselves or their value. They’ve been told by comms teams that boldness is all downside -that it will make them a target. There is no collective voice or network. They are utterly unprepared for modern comms. RE:

This is what MAHA sends out when its boy gets pushback or there’s any hint of accountability. They do this for their state legislatures too — and are amped to do it for nutjobs like Ladapo who want to bring Freedom Measles to a school near you. This is why the silent majority needs to get loud. https://morel.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:5bnbgj7gwebt6hhub4pa5c7n&cid=bafkreicx6ptnx6zgwfdcahxib3ngdai2bevlyp53w4xiibmrkedagdn5ru https://morel.us-east.host.bsky.network/xrpc/com.atproto.sync.getBlob?did=did:plc:5bnbgj7gwebt6hhub4pa5c7n&cid=bafkreic4zexh3qpr5suw2fq7n4yzfd2iz6jien7y3bsi2wliminmvgxxt4
