Brilliant: Alexandra Petri crucifies Rep Tom Suozzi & those who'd abet not resist fascism, equating Trump with polio. Not often a fan of such attempts at humor. For this: A gift link.

Finding middle ground is hard. Why not just give ground instead!

@jeffjarvis Even their gift links are annoying. You can't just read the article, you need to create an account to use the gift link. And even with an account, it pops up a subscription ad that didn't have a dismiss button the first time, so I had to re-load the link to get to the article without the pop-up (and then had to dismiss the bottom subscribe banner to read it).

@summetj @jeffjarvis reloading didn’t write for me. No way out of the sign in screen for me.

@jeffjarvis WaPo is now making you sign in or create an account to read a gifted article. Nope. 😊

@jeffjarvis @inthehands Thank you for the gift link, but like others there’s no non-intrusive way to read it. Bummer.
