Well you're giving it a good effort!

Stephen Robinson @SER1897

The American style of policing can be traced back to Southern slave patrols. No one argued that law enforcement in general is uniquely American. I wish I could make a living being deliberately obtuse. https://t.co/INXaEqRibN

I have over 11,000 paying subscribers already so I'm not sure either approach will work that well.

Adele M. Stan @AddieStan

Contemplating the value in arguing with @mattyglesias since controversy seems to be all he's got for a Substack-building strategy. Wondering if starving him of attention might work better. Don't know the answer. https://t.co/EUWBJSiv1K

Aaron Freedman @freedaaron

This sucks, but it’s funny that the “survey liberalism” crowd (@mattyglesias @davidshor etc) will now have to explain why they still support making the CTC permanent in spite of its unpopularity, and why that same logic shouldn’t apply to, say, defund. https://t.co/m7Aucl9u97
