    It is expedient for dividing their power & turning them against each other, something Democrats & progressives should keenly understand from so much self-infliction.

    If Trump really does show up with “The List” (which isn’t really a list, but a compilation of various other documents that people keep pretending is a big binder called “Names of People Who Fucked Kids” that we’re going to get a copy of) and his name is emblazoned across it a thousand times… what happens next?

    Funny you mention that: how do we know any of it actually exists outside Qanon conspiracy theories the press has reported for years? While I don’t deny the expediency of myths for ruining enemies, are people outside right-wing conspiracy theory communities seriously subscribing to the idea this wasn’t pulled out of some right-winger’s ass?
