I used to read The Atlantic to get a view from the other side. At one point they had some decent writers - I may not have agreed with them, but they presented their point in a way we could 'agree to disagree '. I can't read it anymore. It is so toxic that it is literally painful to read.
Sometimes I wonder if I am keeping myself in my own echo chamber. Am I guilty of the same thing they are doing? I read something like this and I have my answer.
Don't forget, the Atlantic is the same rag who ran with the story that the Russians had put bounties on the heads of troops. They are as much of a bullshit propaganda rag as the New York Times or WaPo. And of course they paint themselves as respected journalism outlets because they use pretentious font styles in their website aesthetic and employ pompous, hyper-verbose writers who masturbate with their thesauruses each night.

Right, it definitely seems like she’s just trying to use big words to make it seem like she knows what she’s talking about.
