Yglesias refuses to update his priors with data. It's lazy When the Garcia news broke, these people said that "raising the salience" of immigration would be bad for Dems. But addressing the issue decreased Trump's approval and support for deportations, in both experiments and observational data.

Killer-drones were the covert superweapon of the CIA in the War on Terror. They worked technically But the Terror side won that war, all right? The worst enemies of the New World Order are in power in Washington DC now *Drones are great weapons if you think DJs should blow up nuclear bombers

I really admire the innocence of this state-owned employee who looks at the distributional politics of our world and believes a better one will somehow emerge from technological progress. in the good old days, we'd call this greenwashing, we need a new term and AIwashing sounds terrible.

How about focusing on achieving real goals in defence, education, health etc rather than trying to spend some arbitrary % of GDP on them? (Remarkable how the same politicians who drone on about "waste" will sign up to arbitrary spending targets that ensure it.)

Adding 2020 election denial to the school curriculum is wild. I'm glad parents are fighting back because that mess is just plain stupid. Pretty sure there's a strong overlap between election deniers and flat earthers.
