  5. Remember when the same writer who coined #TheCrueltyIsThePoint wrote about "the coming violence" after writing about the Second Redemption in The Atlantic, the week after the November 2016 election.

    Yeah, #AdamSerwer wasn't wrong.

  11. “Kimmel’s refusal to capitulate stands out because so many other well-situated people—those with the resources, platform, and #power to stand up to the president, including, initially, the leaders of ABC—have surrendered, withdrawn, or become Trump sycophants themselves.”

    #AdamSerwer in @TheAtlantic is on🔥 as usual

  15. Unfortunately, behind a paywall, but even the free introduction is very worthwhile for anyone interested in America's education and debates.

    A Q&A with Adam Serwer, a renowned writer for The Atlantic.

    “The Trump administration has launched an attack on knowledge itself,”

    “They want everyone to believe what they believe. When Trump changes his mind about something, then you need to believe that, too."

  20. I doubt a week has gone by in the last 5 years that I haven’t heard someone use #Adamserwer’s brilliant 2018 statement that “Cruelty is the point.” Not many in history have ever gotten that kind of traction for the words they write. He deserves all the recognition he’s earned.

  22. @BruceMirken. The competition is fierce but we may have a winner. As #AdamSerwer wrote, "the cruelty is the point."

  24. "Thomas’s hostility to disclosure laws and free-speech precedents paints a vivid picture of American #democracy as he believes it should exist: a system small enough to be bought by a tight circle of anonymous oligarchs, and big enough to silence anyone who might criticize them." -#AdamSerwer / #TheAtlantic

  26. "#ClarenceThomas has publicly stated his failure to comply with the law by disclosing his financial entanglements with #HarlanCrow are unintended errors, but if so, it's a mistake remarkably consistent with his ideological position that people who use their money and influence to steer the #American #political system ought to be able to do so in complete secrecy." -#AdamSerwer / #TheAtlantic
