I could celebrate having fewer belligerent nitwits in my mentions, but the reality is, it's sad. Bouie's a smart guy who reads a lot. He could contribute to a serious debate, or he could sell snake oil to people who don't know better. He has chosen the latter path.

The first time I heard of Bouie was back in 2010, when he panned Markos Moulitsas' book "American Taliban." It was actually a sensible review! Hard to imagine him writing this today.https://www.redstate.com/dan_mclaughlin/2010/09/03/rave-reviews-for-american-taliban/ …

20. Anyway, as usual, I invite you all to read the whole thread & his responses; this is a public platform & I'm quite confident that my side of the argument can withstand the scrutiny. Also, I may inadvertently have failed to link this upthreadhttps://www.nationalreview.com/2019/08/1619-project-new-york-times-king-cotton-thesis/ …

Dude, unless your boss got an angry email about this exchange you *know* this isn't true.

Did he ever send an email to your boss? No? Then I can think of at least one who handles it less well.
