The Washington Post seems like a toxic place to work. One day, you might retweet a joke or hold one of your reporters to any journalistic standard. Next thing you know, your obnoxious coworkers are putting you on blast on Twitter because they refuse to calm down and can't even. Journalismer "Bye" Felicia Sonmez got Dave Weigel suspended for retweeting a joke four days after he retweeted it and is trying to get another reporter suspended. And Taylor Lorenz is... well, Taylor Lorenz. Any criticism of her is literal harassment. They both remind me of that girl who says, "If you aren't there for her at her worse, they don't deserve you at your best." SPOILER: They. Never. Have. A. Best.

The Lorenz part is where Elon Musk comes in. She's an activist who gets colleagues to claim she's a shoe-leather reporter, but all she does is attack people who have a different political opinion than her. One of those people was Christopher Rufo, and Musk responded to Rufo that Lorenz is more emblematic of a bigger problem.

Musk knows about WaPo's activism firsthand. Their journalisming has been out in full force after Musk announced he was buying Twitter. WaPo calls it bad for free speech and says billionaires shouldn't own media companies. WaPo is owned by the second richest man in America, Jeff Bezos.

It turns out the "Democracy Dying in the Darkness" is less a slogan and more a mission statement.

The Dave Weigel stuff I'm torn on. He was suspended five days after tweeting "Every girl is bi. You just have to figure out if it's polar or sexual." He apologized. But Sonmez wouldn't calm down about it, and suspending him without pay was the only way for WaPo to stop the bad press. On one hand, it's dumb. Wiegel is one of the least bad reporters. To suspend him over retweeting someone else's joke, then go through over a decade's worth of tweets to take things out of context, is unfair and ridiculous. On the other hand, these are the rules of engagement that legacy media chose to abide by. So, f*ck everyone involved.

Everyone at The Washington Post should just make out with each other and get it over with.
