  • There are lines that need to be drawn. If a neo-nazi says they want to push neo-nazi policies in the name of defeating Trump, nope, still not letting them in the tent just because they said they’re trying to beat Trump.

    And if you can agree with that extreme hypothetical, then it just becomes a debate over where we draw that line, not over whether a line should be drawn at all. I think for a lot of people, “leftist infighting” is something that’s only bad when other people do it, because they drew the line in a different place from you.

    Getting a little less hypothetical here, I don’t think it’s acceptable to throw LGBTQ people under the bus in the name of defeating Trump. Even if you want a big tent, you’re still stuck with a conflict on whether that tent should include LGBTQ people or Gavin Newsom. I’d rather have the former.

    We have almost four years to find a better nominee than Gavin Newsom. I am positive that we can do better than him.




  • The internet is how I found groups for my most niche interests. I already know that some of my favorite games do not have any kind of local scene near me, but at least I can still play online. Some of these games I have to travel out to tournaments to play in-person once or twice a year, and I know those events wouldn’t exist without first building up an online community to organize from.
