Micah Schwartzman @micahschwartzman.bsky.social · 05/05/2026If only Hobbes, Locke, Rousseau, Hume, Kant, Hegel, Marx, Mill, Dewey were more *readable*. www.nytimes.com/2026/05/05/o... 9734
MF HUME @mfhume.bsky.social · 06/05/2026I think it’s unironically a virtue of Hume and Mill especially that they are so readable—clear, concise whereas Klein is probably right that most Americans would find A Theory of Justice kind of a drag (I know I did). 110
MF HUME @mfhume.bsky.social · 06/05/2026And I think Klein comes out pro-Dewey here but really his argument is that Douglass, King, Lincoln, FDR have been more important to American liberalism in practice than Rawls. 100
