...how the hot takes on the subject from Bors and Lubachansky and all the other up-their-own-ass table-flipping pseudoprogressives have aged. I used to love Bors and theNib, but dropped both when I realized the only people they loathe more than Donald J. Trump are Democrats. They want the farce to go on, it feeds them oxygen. If a grown-up gets in there and restores sanity, they'll just have to work that much harder to pretend only the ultra-rads can save the world.
