sometimes calm disapproval can be much more powerful than excoriation
The exaggerated Thumbs Down/Boo combo at any Tesla vehicle has gotten me more response than a double bird ever could
saw a guy leaning on a cybertruck in manhattan and gave him a thumbs down and said "boo cybertruck" as i walked by and he halfheartedly mumbled "boo [something incoherent]" and he seemed so resigned and demoralized i almost felt sorry for him ALMOST

More than ever. CBS and the Post could really use some excoriation.

This statement is also a clear threat from the state party—the longer Platner drags this out, the louder and more aggressive their public excoriation of him is going to get.

Would love to see D politicians address this situation with the vicious, high-spirited contempt and excoriation it deserves instead of this cloying, sorrowful, gravity that actually tames and normalizes it.

The constant excoriation of Buttigieg for working an entry-level job at McKinsey right out of college while hand-waving away Platner’s time *as an actual Blackwater mercenary* gives that last part away rather blatantly.
normal people mostly quite like Pete Buttigieg and the insane dislike of him by leftists is weird and a mixture of envy and homophobia.

I have a vague memory of precisely this issue costing Toyota billions of dollars, months of media excoriation and a congressional hearing, but that can't be right

One thing Nige's excoriation by Raskin and the House Committee has achieved is a total absence [so far] of Fartrage on the BBC, ITV or Sky.
He doesn't want the awkward questions, and they don't want to have to ask them.

I’m not one to defend the D Party lately, but I think you’re thinking of the SAVE Act (for which they deserve excoriation). No Democrats voted for the budget.

Same brother. It's been nice to give myself more grace for my failures and foibles. Even halving my self-excoriation rate has been a real value-add 😎 ✌️
