But rather than reform and pursue honest information dissemination, they instead demanded government control of toxic, extremist breeding grounds like Twitter.
Why do we take you on this stroll down memory lane? Because there is a toxic, extremist new website in town but there's nothing but crickets coming from the Very Concerned establishment.
This is likely because this is their brand of toxic extremism. Meet Bluesky, a place where a perxon of no particular gender can be safe from the literal violence of non-affirmation. Quick bans are issued to harmful accounts like the Babylon Bee and block lists are as long as CVS register tape. Wishes and promises of death on billionaires, MAGAs and conservatives are not, however, considered equal to the real crime of misgendering.
All this is preamble to the drama happening to Jesse Singal, a very smart, very honest liberal journalist who happens to have committed the sin of being gender critical. Singal, would, no doubt, not be thrilled being associated with a partisan site like Twitchy, but we do salute his principled stances and thorough research.
