My latest essay has a simple thesis. Read it here: www.liberalcurrents.com/the-end-of-h...
We do not have to yield to the car dealership owners who have made their midlife crises a geostrategic problem for the entire world.

We can yet end this madness. Bloodied, frightened, unwilling, but also unbowed. We can pick up a knife and live to see dawn again.

“restoring faith that better is possible” is maybe the most important thing in politics right now outside of imposing consequences on the bad people (and imposing consequences would help restore faith) we have seen what cynical, “lol nothing matters” politics leads to and it leads to Donald Trump

After a bit of a break, I've got a new post up at the blog that I think you'll want to read—especially if you could use a dose of well-grounded hope, a feeling of being part of something great, and/or a compass to check that you're heading in the right direction in these crazy days.

Transphobia is the greatest lodestone for today's far-right, because it embodies the far-right desire to claim all identities are natural and biological. Today's fascists hate trans people for the same reason interwar fascists hated diasporic Jews - because they hate fluidity and border crossing.

Illiberal actors like Palantir weaponize Karl Popper's tolerance paradox, insisting liberal societies accommodate viewpoints that seek to undermine or oppose pluralism. But equality and democracy demand that tolerance and pluralism be regarded as *normative*, not merely descriptive, traits.

The singular goal of all future US politics is to ensure Trumpism is defeated and cannot again take root here, and everything that serves that end is to be considered and prioritized. It's a holistic organizing principle, from a Green New Deal to Nuremberg 2 to expanding the court to Reconstruction.

I’ve typed and deleted this post many times over the years, but: there is no type of death I don’t wish on every person who brought Trump to power because there is no type of death they don’t wish on others. They have always been pro-war, pro-cancer, pro-plague, pro-disaster, profoundly anti-life.

The thing about white supremacy is that it’s a receding horizon—it can never be accomplished and maintained. So what you’ll get is increasing infighting among the elites of this sect as to who’s truly white, who’s the right kind of Christian, who’s a real man, that will exclude more and more people.

I'm a bit of a broken record on this, but usurping the power of the purse isn't just one constitutional violation among all the many others. It is, uniquely and singularly, the death of constitutional government altogether. Game over, end of story, you now live in an autocracy.

I don't know what SCOTUS will do on birthright citizenship case, it's anybody's guess. But if they endorse Trump's diktat, the only response is defiance. Outright, open defiance by the states. A decision not just erroneous but illegitimate, beyond their power, null and void from the day it's issued.

The logic of the Trump regime is grounded in the right-wing’s desire to establish the US as a petro-empire that manages the impacts of climate change w fascism: fake elections, disinformation as common sense, concentration camps for migrants, & the destruction of blue states by extreme weather. 1/n

If you are serious about "never again" then remember: it's not about standing up to a line of tanks when the camps are already running. It's about standing up to social & professional pressure when the whole thing is just getting started, when it's not yet cool to do so. That's bravery that matters.

Positive take (relatively) on “we have lived among such people this whole time”: Yes, and that shows things don’t need to be like this. There will always be the sort of people who’d try to get the state to hurt kindergartners. We just need to keep them out of institutional power, and on the fringe.
