       @benroyce Other than seeing short clips of his interviews I’ve never seen or heard his show. How influential is he? Does he have a big following?Will he go to war with trump over this?

       @kbsez CtG is not a leftyhe inhabits that space of just-edgy-enough contrarianism against any political attitude on the spectrum as long as it maximizes clicks and eyes and earsand it works, he's good at ithe is indeed very influentialhe will not go to war with trump. oh he'll milk this for all it's worth thoughfor me, he got under trump's skin in an amazing fashion. and for that, he deserves his props

       @kbsez 1,000%if trump didn't react ctg would shuffle onto other topicsbut trump presented himself as a giant radioactive target due to the nature of his whiny narcissist responseand ctg knows exactly what he's doing, he knows he would be a fool not to poke the beehive some more. this is ctg's bread and butter

       @benroyce @kbsez Also I'm pretty sure that CtG just being a black man is a big part of what gets under DJT's skinThis is kryptonite for DJT's own superpower, though, because his usual move is to crush you with the spotlight (it's why he always talks about ratings)And CtG just *gets stronger* when narcissist outrage points attention at him

       @trochee @benroyce @kbsez I have been trying to think of a counter-example but I think DJT only ever uses the insult "low IQ individual" for Black people. Mostly Black women. Though if anyone could point out when he's used it about someone who isn't Black, I'd be happy to know, mostly because I'd be curious about what it would take for him to do that.

       @trochee @benroyce @kbsez There are people who have some racist notions because it's almost impossible not to when living in our culture. THEN there are people who are fundamentally unable to see Black people as equal beings, these people will never really see or hear you if your are Black and DJT is, I suspect, in this category.They have been purging women and black people from leadership positions all over the government. The only black people he will tolerate are comically sycophantic.

       @futurebird @trochee @benroyce @kbsez I’ve noticed that, too. He seems to only use this phrase for black or hispanic people.

       @futurebird @trochee @benroyce @kbsez Yes. He uses it mostly in referring to Black women.

       @futurebirdThe reactions to "race & IQ" pseudoscience are, uh, wowSkeptics like Stephen Jay Gould ask: "does this test measure anything at all *except* race & class?" 😍🫡Well-meaning liberals ask: "perhaps there's an intellectual effect of being in an oppressed population" 🫤😐😢Smarter white supremacists (Murray) say "empirical evidence of superiority of white people, who should take most leadership roles" 😡Donald says "I found a great new substitute for the n-word" 🤬 @benroyce @kbsez
