interesting that conservatives were militantly “we must reward hustle” when the target was affirmative action at elite universities and now, when faced with the success of south asians and other groups, it is “i think we are too meritocratic”

it seems extremely reductive but I think one of my takes regarding this is that a not insignificant amount of people just need to find a hobby that does not revolve around scrolling on their phones may be a bad take but I just keep circling back to this

remember: it saved no net money, social services US citizens are getting cut, and left the US in a weaker place geopolitically. none of the debates about fiscal responsibility, obligation to US citizens first, or 'hard choices' actually apply. they're all bullshit. killed people for nothing at all.

Good piece on this new variety of American fascist preacher. To my mind, there’s not much that’s original about these guys. This is just old school Christian Identity doctrine ca. 1940-1990s rebranded—the stuff Wesley Swift or Richard Butler were preaching. religionnews.com/2026/09/24/t...

It really is striking how many authoritarian states have ended up in this exact same place, where the leader seizes control of scientific inquiry. Lysenkoism in the Soviet Union, Aryan Physics in the Third Reich, Great Leap Forward (also related to Lysenko) in China.

*GROUP LINKED TO RFK JR. SOLD ACCESS TO US OFFICIALS AT EVENT *MAHA SUMMIT SOLICITED $300,000 SPONSORSHIPS FROM COMPANIES *HHS SAYS OFFICIALS WEREN'T AWARE OF SPONSORSHIP ARRANGEMENTS
(Bloomberg) -- A nonprofit group with ties to US Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. solicited payment from companies in exchange for access to top agency officials at an upcoming event, according to documents viewed by Bloomberg News.
Ahead of the MAHA Summit on Sept. 29, a menu of sponsorship options was circulated to companies and consultants with various tiers of support, according to people familiar with the solicitations who weren’t authorized to speak publicly. The highest level, quoted at $300,000 to some prospective sponsors, guaranteed a speaking slot at the event “with meaningful input on the panel composition and topic” as well as a “private dinner for 30 guests” with Kennedy and Mehmet Oz, head of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services.
The organization running the event is part of a web of interconnected groups that comprise Kennedy’s external political network. It’s unusual for a Cabinet member to maintain an active political operation.HHS spokesperson Emily Hilliard said in a written statement that “department officials listed as speakers were not involved in the planning or sponsorship activities for the MAHA Summit and were not aware of the sponsorship arrangements described.”
Kennedy has long criticized the health agencies he now oversees for being captured by corporate influences they are meant to regulate.
Companies that have signed on to sponsor the MAHA Summit include Anthropic, OpenAI, Walmart Inc., Hims & Hers Health Inc., Centene Corp., Tempus AI Inc. and Compass Pathways Plc, according to the event website. It’s unclear how much each contributed, though the most prominently featured logos are sleep apnea devicemaker ResMed Inc., whose chief medical officer is appearing on a panel with National Institutes of Health Director Jay Bhattacharya, and cancer screening company Grail Inc., whose chief executive officer is speaking in another session.

It's genuinely fascinating that the US president keeps announcing that he just flat out doesn't know what trade is, he legit doesn't appreciate the concept of exchange and instead views economic activity through the lens of a dragon attempting to maximise its gold hoard to sit upon.
