It’s funny how DOGE, the Iran policy, crypto, the deportations etc etc simply illustrate that beyond all of the edgelord branding (and what the Curtis Yarvin types would have you believe) Trumpism is and has always been a form of militarized neoliberalism rather than a break with it

the “anti-establishment” commentariat has never been made confront the fact that the vast majority of institutions and individuals propping up Trump are almost entirely the same circles that enthusiastically backed the Iraq War.

They say Zohran’s a magical realist. But I’m the candidate whose housing policy was last seen in a Bolaño fever dream. More to the point, I’ve been campaigning from inside a Gabriel García Márquez novel since day one.

the destruction of chattel slavery is one of the great accomplishments in our nation's history and the reason conservatives hate celebrating it is because doing so legitimizes the black counter-narrative of the united states

The only reason Republicans have a reputation as "fiscal hawks" is that the press refuses to tell the public basic facts about what they do when they are in office.

people HATE the red hot chili peppers, and while i get it, there's a cultural element in play. shirtless white boy fake rapping, chicka chicka guitar, bass popping - these are the elements of white southern californian spirituals

This is correct, but there’s more to it: the same problem also applies to the abandonment of the canonical texts & methods of various disciplines for an inflated emphasis on “multidisciplinarity” & “critique.” Both of these things are valuable, but only in a context of strong foundational training

My prediction is that Trump will be surprisingly normal about this and post a somewhat genuine boilerplate statement if only because he’s absolutely terrified of his own mortality and nothing spooks like a cancer diagnosis in your age group

Disappointing that Pope Leo XIV didn’t follow the example of his predecessor and invite Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew to pray with him at the Tomb of St Peter today

People love to say “Eastern Orthodoxy is like Catholicism without the Pope” but actually it’s more like we like Popes so much that we demanded having more than one

If you are looking for a Bulwark against Trumpism, you might consider electing an American with actual monarchical power and a broader reach than the US President

A total repudiation of Vance-style Catholicism, and the Trumpism. A younger Francis who may yet confront the American (political and ecclesial) crisis.

If your defense of AI is that people also said bad things about past technologies, maybe you should wait until a time when a TV star shitposter is NOT dismantling the federal government from within.
