        Will the hire-out ethnic cleansers tell their help to stop beating the rugs in the front yard?

        There’s nothing wrong with that paragraph. We should ask for all the help we can get. Isn’t saving lives more important than scoring ideological points.

        Terrific Torres Retweeted K. Thor Jensen

        Think the horror comes from encouraging violent racists to "work closely" with law enforcement. Though it's kind of a redundant sentimenthttps://twitter.com/kthorjensen/status/1158025732620034048 …

        Remember that isolated shootings aren't the tactical endgame for white supremacists like Trump and Stephen Miller. The goal is to normalize state sponsored violence in any degree against people of color. The ICE camps and the El Paso shooting are two flanks of the same race war.

        The nice Nazis = Bush, Reagan, and all the other neoconservative and Never Trump Republicans who have no qualms with continuing America's white nationalist foreign policy.

        This is honestly pretty standard practice in addressing extremism/violence.

        Am I wrong, or did the times just make it painfully obvious they don't understand how white nationalism works?

        You're right. I mean they have plenty of journalists who do and there have been some shake up, but the most powerful positions are held by just useless detritus. This piece would've come from people like James Bennet or B Applebaum (see below re: latter).https://twitter.com/tomscocca/status/1157332911110205442 …

        wombot 👀 added,

        Tom Scocca @tomscocca
        The piece quotes five people as examples of regular citizens opposed to the bill and *all five of them* have visible conservative interests or affiliations https://twitter.com/BCAppelbaum/status/1157309050155085825 …
