Critics to Ignore

The Democratic convention speeches I watched were very good, and full of intelligent reframing — especially the emphasis on freedom. I’ve seen some strange criticism of the theme of “joy” that several wove into their speeches. If you’re finding fault with that, then you’re really grasping at straws. Also, the idea that the Harris campaign is somehow light on substance because they’re good at social media or vibes or whatever is simply laughable.
