    This is how we got here. The normalization and elevation of figures like Steve Bannon by respected platforms that should know better. Thus is truly disappointing @NewYorker.https://twitter.com/nytimes/status/1036649277257379840 …

        I agree. The amount of ink wasted on deplorables like Bannon could have been used to further sound ideas & values, not racism, nativism & just plain hatred.

        Fascism is not an idea. It's an assertion of power for power's sake. You can't argue with it. What sounds like ideas in fascism is (explicitly!) deliberate bullshit meant to keep you idiotically talking while they plot. To normalize it as "opposition" is to give in to it. https://twitter.com/yeselson/status/1036687471449436160 …

        This is beyond disappointing @NewYorker —it’s horrifying. How can a media outlet that features the stellar journalism of @JaneMayerNYer and @RonanFarrow stain itself—and all of us—by giving any kind of platform to Bannon, whose bigotry is destroying America? Who next? David Duke?

        Fully lost on missing the opportunity to have this guy exposed to daylight , surrounded by intelligent , formidable interviewer, audience and speaker lineup. I was drooling at its potential.

        You're blaming the New Yorker for recognizing reality? The GOP controls Presidency, House & Senate. GOP controls 26 states from governor to dog-catcher. Bannon's Blood&Soil ideas spreading throughout The West. That all happened on our watch. Don't blame the New Yorker.

        As a third-generation subscriber, I never thought I'd see @NewYorker stoop so low. Interview Sherilynn Ifill instead, or a voice advocating social justice whom we haven't heard before and deserves a platform.
