“Every girl is bi. You just have to figure out if it's polar or sexual.”

So basically he got suspended for retweeting what amounts "G" rated "dad joke". Heck, even if he is a liberal nutjob this is still massive overkill. He should join the military and see what kind of jokes get passed around...

... I’ll just point out that men are more at risk of schizophrenia

I agree with this assessment, and so do I.

Good idea. Weigel could benefit greatly with a limited exposure to the real world, unlike most of his WaPost cohorts who would cringe at the thought of leaving their woke shell for longer than a day or two.

From his Wiki bio it’s obvious to me that Dave Weigel doesn’t fit the Post mold, or any other for that matter.

A Ralph Nader libertarian? Give me a break.

It was funny or it was not funny.

But it wasn’t “reprehensible” at all.

Meanwhile, people causing actual sh*tstorms over there still have their jobs and paychecks.

Right on. That was a good retweet. I don’t see the problem here.
