Yes, in a very short time we'll look back on this time in history and wonder what the fuck we were doing. People will be completely dumbfounded, shocked, enraged.https://twitter.com/david_turnbull/status/1219109306450182144 …

The @nytimes Ed Board claims to care about climate change and yet one of their two endorsed candidates should be disqualified for repeating decades old lies about gas as a bridge fuel. Whether you believe in “pragmatism” or not, @amyklobuchar would make our climate crisis worse.

The NY Times is exercising its rights to endorse who it wants. Freedom of speech, and association. I also believe it was making a point about women as candidates. It is not the downfall of humanity as we know it.

One of the great things about freedom of speech is our ability to criticize that which we disagree with. I also think they were making a point about women candidates, but in a sexist way. It's like two female candidates make one male candidate. See:https://twitter.com/cmclymer/status/1219115847047942144 …

I feel entirely confident saying that there is no scenario in which the NYT editorial board would have endorsed two men in this primary. If only men were in this primary and someone had suggested a dual endorsement, it would have been called ridiculous and insulting.

You know what's "radical"? Burning the entire planet down to line the pockets of a few wealthy fossil fuel executives. Dear @nytimes editorial board: you are still ignorant of the magnitude of the climate crisis. I really struggle to understand why. https://twitter.com/nytimes/status/1219109858957496321 …

There's no right or wrong about this. This is an opinion, a preference, an expression of free speech. Agree or disagree, there is no 'right or wrong' to it. I'm not a Klobuchar supporter, but the NYT can pick who it wants. I'm not going to get pissy about it.

I'm not arguing against their right to express whatever they want to express. They are the newspaper of record in the US with an incredible amount of power and responsibility. You bet I'm going to speak up when I think they are enabling climate catastrophe.
