      1. Neera Tanden, mon semblable, — ma sœur! Like @sunraysunray I had some complicated feelings about Tanden's failed nomination. I don't agree with her politics but (for obvious reasons) also don't like to see a fellow obsessive tweeter crash & burn. https://twitter.com/sunraysunray/status/1362963477241946117 …

      2. Tanden business is rife with irony: her political identity over last 4 years has been as a centrist anti-Trumper punching left while trying to build coalition with GOP Never Trumps. Yet her nomination wasn't scuttled by Bernie but by Manchin, Romney, Murkowski etc.

      3. The other irony is that Tanden is being scapegoated for Trump's sins. Official Washington was never able to tame Trump's tweets & GOP went along (only Twitter itself put an end to it). But establishment, of which Tanden is part, wanted to show tweets can be punished.

      4. Also lost in the larger narrative is that the real problem was never Tanden's tweets (strongly worded but usually within bounds of fair comment) but the truly unhinged Tanden Trolls that she cultivated and encouraged. But you have to be as online as her to know that.

          5. I had originally wanted to pay tribute to the hymn "Nearer, My God, To Thee" by titling this "Neera, My God, To Tweet." But I was victimized by cancel culture so now it ran The Importance of Logging Off.https://www.thenation.com/article/politics/neera-tanden-twitter-biden/ …

          6. Speaking of the problems of social media, I should mention that @leninology's The Twittering Machine is excellent and didn't get (I think) the attention it deserves. A very deep book. https://www.versobooks.com/books/3229-the-twittering-machine …

          The “real problem” was something no Senator mentioned?

          Since January 1 you’ve tweeted “Neera” and/or “Tanden” 61 times. I decided to compare that to myself. I’ve used “Neera” and/or Tanden” 13 times. You’ve tweeted “Neera bots” 19 times #MethinksProtestDothEtc
