There is no pleasure quite like seeing a book you've known about since it was just an idea appear in the world... bonus when your bestie wrote it, and it's getting phenomenal coverage!
Congrats, Neil! Everyone, go read COMING OUT REPUBLICAN! #itsnotamemoir
'But the groups themselves are very clearly not advocating for “peace.” They are for war. Their objection is not to human suffering but that the wrong humans are suffering.'
Excellent Jonathan Chait piece on current campus protests, read it all

There are a number of reasons for this rape denialism -- anti-Semitism, as well as this explanation offered by Natalia Mehlman Petrzela and Amy Elman
Must-read from Michael A. Cohen (NOT TRUMP’S FORMER FIXER) The Atlantic
Thank you for quoting me on the absolutely deranged post-10/7 rape denialism promoted by far too many on the left theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…
In his new piece for the Atlantic, Michael A. Cohen (NOT TRUMP’S FORMER FIXER) lays bare the moral rot of the American left, which, in its reflexive hatred of Jews, has betrayed its purported commitment to the universal right of women to live in safety and freedom. theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…
Super interesting story, though it condenses the considerable space between skepticism of deep-blue school culture + very conservative Christian patriotism!
