David Brooks Advises His Young Padewan

 

Pointing proudly to his 228th consecutive New York Times Pundit of The Month plaque, Mr. David Brooks put his arm around Young Ezra Klein and whispered, "Look, kid, if you stick to gassy generalities, saccharine pieties and blaming Both Sides, you too can be there for-ever."

Clearly Young Ezra has  taken that advice to heart.


Contemptible, indefensible both-sidesing by @ezraklein.bsky.social: “Twitter was, and X is, as happy to be a slingshot for the great replacement theory or anti-Semitism or Islamophobia as for calls to defund the police or abolish ICE.” www.nytimes.com/2026/08/23/o... seriously wtf
