iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

the whole thing is ridiculous on so many levels that I can't even blame JRM for not having a better response 1) colonization was doomed to fail 2) Germans running your country would not be sovereignty (obviously!) 3) post-war Britain was eventually a very nice place to be! etc etc etc

I strongly dislike socialism but if I was a center-left lib congressman, I would not entertain a vote on condemning socialism while the Republican congress does nothing about affordability and Trump's war in Iran messaging disasterclass

I think the thing we are all in denial about when it comes to the One Cool Trick to win elections forever is that low info swing voters are basically incomprehensible eldritch horrors to politically engaged people. There’s no understanding them and you’ll go mad trying.

would prefer stronger regulation of social media and active labor market policies, not sure I see the benefit of a mandatory policy that delays peoples' lives (young people are already entering the workforce later than prior generations!)

I like Derek Thompson and I don't like the second apron but his argument about salary caps was dreadful -NBA has salary caps that player union must agree to -Derek: "that's not fair, what is the salary cap for corporate CEOS?" ...the willingness of the board of directors (the company) to pay

What I love so much about Jesse Jackson's message compared to the populism we have now is how much he centered spiritual uplift "you can make it... hold your head high... you are qualified" he understood the importance of self-esteem while modern populism is very much about the external locus

I wonder about the true salience of some issues sure, people often cite them as important in polls but the evidence that they are high-motivation issues is dubious a stated/revealed preference thing, I guess

hearing Ezra Klein talk about right wingers is so unbearable because he is always in the cuck chair his response to admitted propagandist Chris Rufo saying "lol I just went on EK's podcast and totally got one over on that libtard" is "yes, he is right, he did just totally own me!"

My understanding is that running a grocery store is a low-margin enterprise and there's not much wiggle room to cut prices. So a public option that undercuts existing stores on price via subsidy seems like it will drive nearby shops out of business. Not great.
