Ratcheting up the ugliness in post-America - this hour's edition

Vox cofounder Matthew Yglesias has dog vomit where decent people have souls:

I think the idea behind terrorizing his family, like it or not as a strategy, is to make them feel some of the fear that the victims of MAGA-inspired violence feel thanks to the non-stop racial incitement coming from Tucker, Trump, etc.

I agree that this is probably not tactically sound but if your instinct is to empathize with the fear of the Carlson family rather than with the fear of his victims then you should take a moment to reflect on why that is.

There's that passive-aggressive formulation that Freedom-Haters have made into an art form. A cable-TV commentator has "victims."

This is how stable societies unravel.
