        Can’t wait for some lunatics to start railing against the list just because @bariweiss is on it, thus justifying the necessity for this type of publication in the first place

        Lol and they, of course, begin by blaming it on Trump. Absurd.

        Only 2 paragraphs in and the bashing of "the right" and the implicit notion that "the right" is bad as a given was the starting point years and years ago of the slippery slope that got us to where we are today.

        You're a slippery slope.
