It’s time to meet your gaslighters!⠀ ⠀ Powerful enablers who up until this week had stuck by Donald Trump as he incited and practically begged his supporters to unleash violence are suddenly over it. The very people who’d spent years treating Trump rallies as nothing more than walk-in dioramas of hate, write Inae Oh, are suddenly issuing blistering statements.⠀ ⠀ Don’t get us wrong, condemning violence is always good. Welcomed! But it’s not nearly enough to erase what came before. So to this parade, we can’t help but say—how should we put this?—fuck off.⠀ ⠀ 1. Ted Cruz: “Violence is always unacceptable. Even when passions run high.” — We recommend looking at: the Texas senator’s role in leading a band of Republicans to object to the election results. And despite everything that took place on Wednesday, Cruz didn’t even blink.⠀ ⠀ 2. Ivanka Trump: “No. Peaceful protest is patriotic. Violence is unacceptable and must be condemned in the strongest terms.” — A whole dissertation could be written on Ivanka-flavored hypocrisy. But let’s start simple and turn our attention to the most recent: her deleted tweet praising the mob as “patriots.”⠀ ⠀ 3. Mark Zuckerberg: After years of arrogant resistance and emperor cosplay, the Facebook founder finally blocked Trump on its platforms until Jan. 20. Banning the president’s spigot of bigotry for the next two weeks—after years of accruing immoral levels of wealth—is therefore just not going to cut it.⠀ ⠀ 4. Betsy Devos: The Education Secretary and sister to Erik Prince was AWOL throughout 2020, taking a back-back-back seat as the country struggled with some of the most important education decisions amid a pandemic. But with two weeks left, DeVos has suddenly reemerged to let us know she’s done with the Trump administration. Those are some tough words for a woman who had all but abandoned her post long before this week’s horror. As schools around the country remain floundering amid the worst wave of the pandemic yet, let’s memorialize DeVos as perhaps the most ill-equipped education secretary in quite some time. Maybe ever.⠀ ⠀ @motherjonesmag #theresplentymore」1月9日 12時02分
