I agree. There is definitely a high and mighty vibe there. I read the Goldberg piece over there about Kamala Harris. The piece was fine, but the comments immediately went to sewer level. Racism, misogyny, her laugh, her shoes, her husband, questioning if she really does have older stepchildren that call her Momola.

It was awful, but a good reminder of the fact that there are conservatives who are anti-trump, still conservative, still think they are legions above liberals but have not even attempted to purge the worst parts of their poisonous ideology. And they have zero self awareness about those problems which are baked in. The only reason I stay there is because it reinforces to me, a former Republican, that the rot in the party, even if some are reasonable, is deep enough that I will never return.
