If someone like @bariweiss feels like she can鈥檛 do her best work at the @nytimes they should make some real changes over there.

I agree with Andrew about this. Principled voices shouldn鈥檛 be suppressed in this country, regardless whether or not we always agree with them. In her resignation letter, @bariweiss tells some uncomfortable but important truths that most all of us need to hear.

I like Omar; the comment I had a problem with she herself apologized for. I absolutely think she鈥檚 principled! I don鈥檛 feel the same way about Cotton. I don鈥檛 usually agree with Bari Weiss but the idea that people should shut up just because we don鈥檛 agree with them is terrible.

Kristof has said some things I don鈥檛 agree with, but I can鈥檛 deny he says some intelligent fabulous things too. I feel that way about a lot of people. Some things I agree with, some things I don鈥檛 (you & I are that way, Jesse!) Cotton however comes from a place I rarely respect.

Yes and no. To me there鈥檚 a line, and I felt that in that article he crossed it. Maybe he didn鈥檛, but he suggested it might be reasonable to use the military to quell the protests. But vast majority of protesters have been peaceful!

I don鈥檛 understand. So is the point that I shouldn鈥檛 have criticized Cotton鈥檚 article? He called for the US military to be used against American citizens!
