Zee Cohen-Sanchez, a Bernie Sanders campaign veteran, launched “Un**** America” (we're going with Unfudge America) to counter Charlie Kirk’s influence on college campuses. But internal drama and performative purity politics quickly sabotaged the project. She recounts how influencer apologies empowered whiny critics and fractured the left’s ability to wield electoral power.

If some Karen ass white woman can object and the event is shut down, is that really free speech?

What should worry us all is that it happened and will happen again and doesn’t seem like anything is successful at stopping it.

History is cyclical. And that's why conservatives are adamant about removing our ability to understand it.

"Those who ignore history, are doomed to repeat it."
It's supposed to be cautionary, but for conservatives, it's a game plan.

they don't even remember the lyrics properly.

I'm terrible at remembering lyrics. That's why I can't be a singer.
Well that, and my voice is even worse than my ability to remember lyrics.
But if it wasn't for that, I'd be a great singer.
