“How do you break the Supreme Court? That’s the whole game right now. And you break it through pressure, through politics,” @dmarusic.bsky.social argues. “Institutions are just beliefs: If you undermine these beliefs enough, it’s over.” wisdomofcrowds.live/p/a-longer-l...

Hey Bluesky, you like philosophy? Here's a debate I recently had with my friend Sam Kimbriel over how to think about politics, and what role morality does or does not play in it. wisdomofcrowds.live/p/debate-wha...

Power or "the Good"? Reason or violence?

Bluesky's handles are really unpleasant to look at. Hopefully those will be masked at some point...?

One way to understand ATACMS allowance is that Ukraine is in a far more desperate situation than is being reported.

A friend recently remarked how fascinating it is to watch how democratic verdicts reshape discourse in democracies. No less fascinating is how power does it too.

I have this feeling that Europeans bought into the idea that Trump II would be more mature and normal even more so than many Americans in Washington did.

Watched Z last night. Really well done political thriller, very good snapshot of proto-fascism and how state capture worked ahead of the Colonels’ Coup. And for all of Costa-Gavras’ agitprop in trying to portray the left as merely humanistic, the logic of Greek Cold War dynamics are crystal clear.

When you put it that way, I admire the man.
