Is it possible to craft a tweet LESS aligned with any progressive vision for America in June 2020 than this tweet? https://twitter.com/neeratanden/status/1276574609874259968">https://twitter.com/neeratand...

Imagine thinking policing is the solution to a public health crisis?

Imagine thinking we should criminalize more things right now?

Imagine thinking we should be giving police new powers right now?

Policing is not the solution to a public health crisis. Overcriminalization is bad. Giving police more power is bad. https://twitter.com/neeratanden/status/1276961261562052614">https://twitter.com/neeratand...

Pretending I oppose efforts to contain the virus is BS. If you want to give police more power right now, I think you’re wrong. Period. There are many ways of addressing a public health crisis, incl. encouraging mask use, that don’t involve giving police more power. That’s all. https://twitter.com/neeratanden/status/1276962452014596097">https://twitter.com/neeratand...
