Thank you!
There's at least one person who tries to right what they've done wrong in it!
Generally I've found the Charlottesville guys feel like their ideas were taken by MAGA but they didn't get brought into power. One said he didn't lose the argument -- his ideas won, but he didn't get the recognition
Yes!! As a little intern
Be careful trying to decipher the true political beliefs of people wrapped in so many layers of irony they're not sure of their own true beliefs
Good moment to re-up one of the best pieces @ellereeve.bsky.social and I ever did at the Atlantic Wire.
And here's the long cut of the interview, where we talk about YouTube, Austin, Joe Rogan, RFK Jr, various "Roman salutes"

I'm not personally in favor of us entering the 10th year of endless Trump Safaris, but @ellereeve.bsky.social is uniquely good at doing profiles like this. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wsn1...
came across this when looking up this great doc about the democratic activist Srbijanka Turajlic

I'm at the Tucson Festival of Books this beautiful weekend 🌵
Loved talking to you Lizzie!
From 4Chan to Charlottesville to DOGE. How the far right internet gave birth to the second Trump administration. With the brilliant @ellereeve.bsky.social slate.com/podcasts/wha...
In the latest episode of “Why Is This Happening?, @chrislhayes.bsky.social is joined by @ellereeve.bsky.social, author of “Black Pill: How I Witnessed the Darkest Corners of the Internet Come to Life, Poison Society, and Capture American Politics.”
Listen wherever you get your podcasts.
thank you and I hope you find it illuminating
Thank you!!
The other thing that surprised me was that so many people really did buy into the idea that Musk is a genius and therefore uniquely qualified to execute Trump's vision

We were able to come together for a frank discussion about why people call Trump 'daddy'
When I visited Nahunta, GA before the election, people told me they thought Trump was for them, not the elites. So we went back to see what they made of Elon Musk. It got heated

Everyone needs to read Black Pill by @ellereeve.bsky.social (the author of the screenshotted piece, who is in the trenches covering the worst people on the right): bookshop.org/p/books/blac...
No closure, no justice. Some catharsis in writing about it and realizing it was more insane than I'd realized at the time
Thank you for reading! It is very strange for me to see the most powerful people in the world ripping off the memes posted by fascist virgins 10 years ago
I have no intel on their motivations but tendies is absolutely correct
A reminder that this weekend, author @ellereeve.bsky.social will be holding a virtual book club via zoom on my website discussing her new book, Black Pill.

they don't like it when you talk back
The first line -- 'I spent my entire teen years at war' -- comes from a conversation with a friend several years ago. He was like, oh, that explains everything
