responses to this are absolutely hilarious. ppl acting like backing trump is some niche or isolated thing and not quite literally the majority opinio… - Astead Herndon

folks say journalists focus on Trump the individual bc there's drama + Biden is "boring." Sure. But its also medias uncomfort in dealing w/ broader Trumpism. I.e. its easier to ask abt the man than the societal forces that define his rise and persist today

There's a uniqueness to the US Capitol obviously but I cannot overstress that much of what you see yesterday -- threat of violence, conspiracy, Q, open white nationalism -- is present at quite literally every Trump rally.

i follow this account of old slavery advertisements in newspapers because it reminds that the same medium that can shed light on atrocities can also perpetuate them
