I'd like to reply personally--genuinely, I would--to everyone who took time out of his or her busy schedule yesterday to share his or her thoughts with me about our political mood and the upcoming federal election.— Claire Berlinski. (@ClaireBerlinski) August 31, 2020

No jokes, I just I hate this woman and her paternalistic "benevolent massa" schtick.

    Also, the words "Shut up" can be off-putting. If you're trying to open a dialogue, I've found these words more helpful: "Tell me more,"

    "You'd tell me more, by not speaking." Does that work for you, Claire?

      I mean, if you're American, you know this. Robust protection for political speech is baked deep into the American Constitution and its psyche. And you know the cliché about opinions being like assholes, etc.
