If America is an idea and not simply a nation, then much like how people of a foreign culture can never truly be considered as belonging to an ethnostate, people with values incompatible with multicultural pluralist humanism can never truly be considered American.

"The party is being shaped by wealthy liberal and progressive elite donors that are out of touch with more moderate working-class voters"

Building on this point: the crackdown will not look good. Under normal media conditions, it will be politically suicidal. But it's also necessary. So for that reason, we must also shape the information environment to our advantage, by taking control of social media and pressuring news media outlets.

Obama and Biden both failed to do anything about right wing extremists and the big change we need is someone willing to use the state to confront and dismantle their networks, including using state force. For this to be successful it won’t look very “liberal.”

r/neoliberal mostly supports Zohran Mamdani Folks, enough about being Cuomosexual; it's time for Cuomophobia

My sister, age 7 (Chinese): explaining how she is being picked on by a girl in the year above her My mother: "Why would she do such a thing?" Me, age 10 (just heard about the Opium Wars): "Maybe she knows about the Opium Wars and sides with Britain" My mother: "Hmmm... no I don't think so"

The weltgeist giving yet another Irish Catholic Democrat with a really problematic record and views the mantle of heroship:

This is like watching a creaky weathervane suddenly swivel 180 degrees with micrometer precision and lock into place with servos and braces. The ultimate opportunist has realized what we've all been saying: the first person to go Churchhill 1940 against Trump's blitz is going to be unstoppable.

My hopefully final contribution to flag discourse

Tired: Pritzker Khan Wired: Jay Robert Pritzkenheimer Yes, the 'B' in 'JB' is Bob, short for Robert. Yes, we will nuke the reactionaries.

Do you guys remember when 'Cuomosexual' was a thing Anyway, I'm #ProudlyCuomophobic

Real utilitarians believe the US should be run by a USAID-PEPFAR junta that governs on behalf of the American people to the minimum extent necessary to maintain public buy-in for a regime whose primary purpose is the alleviation of global poverty and the eradication of all disease.

If you don't like multicultural pluralism, GO BACK TO THE OLD WORLD!!! This is AMERICA. LOVE IT OR LEAVE IT!!!

Sorry, triangulation bros, but I would sacrifice my support for popular democracy before sacrificing my support for immigrant rights. An electorate which would strip people of rights does not deserve to have their perspectives considered on that issue.

Sorry, but calling for a national divorce is quitter talk. We will not abandon our brothers and sisters in the red states. We will not give up our national influence in order to escape Republican governance. We are in this to subjugate the reactionaries and secure absolute victory nationwide.

I'm going back to being a little less contemptuous of Gavin Newsom now that he's channelling the "ready to be the Patrick Bateman to the Republican's Paul Allen" vibes again

There will come a time when those who were in the zone of action will be judged for what they did in this moment. Judgement won't come from above, but from us, on this earth, in this life. And for the ICE kidnappers who wage war against our Republic, justice will be swift, severe and inflexible.

Glory belongs to the heroes of America; the heroes with the moral and physical courage to stand against those un-American would-be gravediggers of liberty: the bloodhounds in the skins of men that call themselves ICE.
