"The left went too far" in contemporary U.S. politics is almost always a lie and a very convenient way to rationalize moral failure. For example, "MeToo went too far" replaces "I do not care about sexual violence or its victims and I don't want to have to even feel bad about that"

to agree with the Bruenig piece, you have to accept the premise that continued human presence on earth requires us to be concerned with white birthrates, because otherwise there's no problem to be solved

I grew up on a diet of Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark... I swear these vines covering a lamppost in Wroclaw, Poland are straight out of my childhood nightmares.

A lot of "post-left" personalities like Brand claim they were pushed away from the left but were in fact drawn to the right as a means of escaping accountability for their own actions

Having stoners answer customer service calls is so effective. My grocery delivery got stolen (so I'm mad) so I called the store & some dude was like "Seriously? Damn, what the fuck" and I was like "Right? Dude, I know" and he's like "Fuck dude, let me get this fixed" and I was like "Bro, thank you."

so my favorite dive bar in WI passed up showing tonight’s Bucks game so they could show live poll results. when the election was called for Crawford, the whole bar started chanting, “Fuck El*n”. the bartender pulled out the good stuff and handed out free shots to us all—an absolutely electric nite

Awful scenes coming out of Gaza as Israeli govt announces its intention to seize more Palestinian territory and displace civilians yet again. The UK government is still shamefully complicit. We must stop arms sales, recognise Palestine, and hold those responsible accountable.

Just so everybody understands, Booker has been speaking cogently about the issues the entire time and Strom Thurmond famously spent hours reading from the encyclopedia, because segregationists were and are dumbshits

Cory Booker being genuinely funny, breaking and inspiring coming up to 25 hours is remarkable. No toilet breaks, no food, no sitting, no breaks. And still giving a good speech. A rallying cry to his colleagues -calling them out for inaction. #CoryBooker

I think the remarkable thing about Cory Booker's speech is that much of it is a good speech. He's not just filling time, he's using time while the spotlights on him.

Right now, Cory Booker is holding the Senate floor like a combination of Jimmy Stewart in "Mister Smith Goes to Washington" and Jerry Lewis in the last hours of his telethon. Compelling viewing! (On C-Span and Youtube)

Me: I need to stop following US politics so closely, it is bad for my head and I cannot do anything to affect it. Also me: I better watch Corey Booker's endurance speech live for the rest of the day.

Not being allowed to hand water to people in line to vote no matter who they are voting for, while being allowed to hand people million dollar checks to get their vote, is the most American thing ever.

Hard to overstate the importance of the Le Pen court ruling today. We find out if the French legal system can resist far-right populism better than the US did and whether France will stay firmly in the anti-Putin camp. The implications, for Europe and the world, are enormous.
