I’ve seen some people dunking on the guy who’s like “USAID was our main customer, shutting them down needed to happen though” but I feel like that’s kinda the skeleton key for all American politics right now: so many people don’t care about their material conditions as long as it owns the libs

I'm pretty sure the entire current administration is the result of rich people trying to make 'being rich' a protected constitutional class

“I am a king and my will is law” isn’t a clever distraction from what he’s doing, it’s the central underlying justification for everything he’s doing.

I am one to normally agree against alarmism but everything leading to this moment has been a function of cope. Endless rationalization and abatement of alternative hypotheticals to give tractable reason to what is otherwise an unintelligible sequence of horrific actions of spiteful self mutilation.

incredibly frustrating that @chrismurphyct.bsky.social posted this on the machine that's owned by the shadow president and works by suppressing left of center messaging and pushing right wing propaganda to users. stop posting there!

I think we are underestimating the chances that they go into BLS, Census and the Fed and break most of our economic reporting infrastructure. Decent chance we go into a 2008 like downturn entirely of our own making flying blind.

Fox News host John Roberts: "If you're gonna trust anybody with rooting out waste, fraud, and abuse, wouldn't you want it to be a guy who really doesn't need your money?" (Rich people, famous for not wanting more money ... )

there's a kind of protest these days. you do a thing and then after everyone starts staring you explain what it meant. the civil rights movement understood that you don't throw soup at paintings: you arrange confrontations where the act itself is the message. www.liberalcurrents.com/how-to-win-a...

My new favorite genre trope is where the anti-villain antagonist tries to demoralize the hero by catching them in some kind of philosophy double-bind trap ("if violence is so bad, why do you do it all the time hm?") until the hero finally goes "why am I listening to you?" and just shoots them.

developing a sort of descriptive thesis that there is a growing anti-civilization movement coalescing around destroying the pillars of modernity: pharmaceuticals, efficient agriculture, and education and their assumptions are widely culturally accepted

Thinking a lot about when my friend told me last summer that his dad, a career federal prosecutor working in sex crimes and child abuse, "is genuinely concerned that Biden has dementia and can't serve," and later that he thinks "enthusiasm for Kamala is astroturfed."

"The conservative political project from 1974 onward was to ensure no scandal like Watergate could ever take a man down again. From 2017 onward, it has been to ensure no scandal like MeToo could ever take a man down again."

"Sectarianism is bad and all that," ikik, but I do genuinely think the Jewish community needs to do more sectarianism against Orthodox and Ultra-Orthodox Jews, as their entire political project is and always has been to try and trick everyone into thinking they're the only "real Jews."

It's tough to attack Orthodox Judaism—as a revisionist, modern, spiritually corrupting movement peddled by liars—from a Jewish perspective, cause I just know that if I ever successfully popularized any criticisms against Orthodoxy, they'd only serve to be co-opted by anti-semites and Nazis.

Everyone is talking about messaging but no one is talking about, how to deliver your slam-dunk message to a low-info voter’s eyeballs? In this media environment, there’s simply no mechanism for Dems unfortunately. It sucks but it is what it is. Nothing Jeffries does will be seen by Joe Rogan.

As a political scientist who studies countries that managed to stop the slide into authoritarianism, I can assure you that ***refraining from provoking the authoritarian*** is not how it works. Without further ado, I will now go tear out another chunk of hair.
