@emptywheel

Abundant tweets about civil liberties & national security. "Has a longer memory than an elephant & keeps more records than Jim Comey.” Legendary potty mouth.

      No one tell Game Theory about the failures of Neoliberalism. He's not terribly stable and it might well crush him.https://twitter.com/ericgarland/status/810942287026995201 …

      When politics have become brutal, cynical, and provincial, it means the center failed AND we need to rebuild a center with legitimacy. https://twitter.com/JasminMuj/status/810906419641847808 …

      And *definitely* don't tell Game Theory about the brutality and cynicism inherent to Neoliberalism. Goddess forbid he examine himself.

      What is the point of this? Creating a hell of a strawman and calling people names. I mean, you kinda sound like Trump tbh.

      Neoliberalism is a straw man?

      Calling @ericgarland "Game Theory" reduces his often well-considered commentary to his one most obvious and ill-considered gaffe

      Perhaps. But he is more recognizable now as Game Theory. In any case, my attack was on neoliberalism, @ericgarland

      I guess I just don't get why people want to bully him. He's an ally, and a voice against fascism. We need all those voices.

      He did assume worst of a number of people in his rant. Maybe that's the place for bullying to stop?

      Look. His rant was pretty much a "game theory for inaction." He seems confused, perhaps bc his own ideology failed. OK.

          Maybe he should, then, stop to think seriously about why what he calls the far right and far left are being cynical.

          I don't feel that assuming the worst in people is bullying. That said, I'll reread & consider what you've written here. Thanks
