Also, naturally I made a mistake: Paul Yingling was an artillery officer, not an armor officer, so my apologies to Paul and the Artillery Community, the armor folks don’t deserve him lol. Also I have made this specific error so many times in 15 years I clearly have a mental tic

@attackerman ("Spencer Ackerman") replied to a tweet by @attackerman:

This is the first of a couple pieces from me this month about the 20th anniversary of the Iraq invasion. Up next is my first column for @thenation, in about two weeks. That one is about the uncomfortable parallels between Ukraine and Iraq; and what Americans owe Iraqis.

@attackerman ("Spencer Ackerman") replied to a tweet by @attackerman:

This piece, like a lot of my better ones, is the result of a nudge from @NoahShachtman. In these forever wars, he’s my forever editor, and I’m grateful for him.

Speaking to Amal Al-Jabouri, an extremely brave writer, she basically described a Baghdad that functions as a coda to ‘The Shock Doctrine,’ 15 years later.

@attackerman ("Spencer Ackerman") replied to a tweet by @attackerman:

There were times in speaking to these Iraqi writers that I didn’t understand where they were coming from. Why would Iraqis speak *now* about an occupation more than during the height of an occupation?

They reminded me that I was free to use that word then. They weren’t.

For @RollingStone, I wrote about the meaning of one of the most evil, disastrous wars America ever waged & its legacy not only abroad but here at home.

The Mattis stuff may get the most attention. But it’s the reflections of Iraqis I want to highlight.

NEW: This month marks 20 years since the Iraq War, a giant con that heralded a thousand more.

"Well-managed software is quiet. Software that is dramatic, where shipping is a big event, is poorly managed. Well-managed software is boring. Nothing exciting happens in it because the changes are small, well-observed, and frequent. It’s as uneventful and routine as a heartbeat”

It’s abundantly clear to anyone paying attention that just because you have the illusion you got yours with Lawrence v Texas etc is tenuous. They’ve been looking for any way to drive a wedge since. You will never be them. No matter how useful an idiot you are to them.

@mr_modular ("Allen Nemo") replied to a tweet by @mr_modular:

Is there some strategy and verve in political messaging? Sure. But to turning on our trans family? Nothing is ever enough for Christofascists. They’d never ever accept you and they’d always look for an opportunity to divide and conquer.

@mr_modular ("Allen Nemo") wrote:

Man, fuck a bunch of heteronormative anti trans gay ppl. They’d rather be asking the terrible people on the right for permission to exist than truly accept trans people.
