The constant drumbeat of weird sexual displays is likely a major reason the MAGA coalition, which was flying high at the beginning of the year, is losing popularity rapidly, especially with younger voters.

It’s a pull quote, the way it’s presented on the page is pretty normal. They’ve copied the latter half of the paragraph and put it in a frame above with bold type for emphasis.
You are right, but (as not OP) I gotta say I dislike that in both internet and legacy media. Can’t they work around that so the quoted text only appears in their highilght blocks? I feel like I’m getting spoon-fed suggested facebook statuses when I’m seeing a (web)page formatted like this.
Why are we defending a publication that makes money via advertising and subscriptions for failing to have an effective editor? This isn’t someone posting nonsense in a comments section; the author is apparently a “senior writer” for Salon. Why should we stop attempting to hold supposed professionals accountable for being professional? I get that the world hasn’t exactly been great at professionalism lately, but letting our standards slip isn’t going to fix that.

“Yeah, but what about this typo I just found?”
I’m not disagreeing with the article at all.
But it’s right there before the article even started. It’s not a very good look.
Typos happen. Shrug
