what the nearly monotonic trend says to me is that once you’re done you’re done forever, and I think the mechanism for that is that being done with Trump requires admitting that you got rooked

Whatever clout you think you get for always asserting the maximally cynical "it's always been bad and I've always known as much" perspective is worthless and actually making you much stupider as a person and more useless as a political agent.

The posture of Knowingness which is quick to assert that actually there is no sense things are getting worse when the state livestreams an execution because it's analogous to cop killings of the past is very stupid. You can and should notice changes.

The thing is, part of why they are so this is because they think they are the hard men who need to do this to make good times again. When in reality they are the softest of soft men.

Do I think whichever Onion writer who wrote this "joke" is on the Russian take? No, probably not Do I think that writer reads too much interwar Soviet history and wants to larp as the Soviet Minister of Nationalities in the 1930s writing purge justifications? Yes, absolutely

"New Onion makes weird "jokes" about how Poles are stupid" is something that seems baffling until you realize that hang-ups about the Poles are something very common in late Imperial Russian and early Soviet geopolitical commentary

I've been immersed in research on Reconstruction in Lousiana and it's a very difficult truth to absorb that the white terrorist movement in the South was among the most successful terrorist movements in global history. Took 10 years but it won a total & complete victory through murder and atrocity.

The Onion and John Stewart made their chops busting the media for bothsiding bullshit. Then became friends with people in the media and adopted the media's narrative of "Republicans are evil, but lets shit on Democrats". The saddest sell outs are the ones who don't even realize they sold out.

One of reasons that the whole attmepted rank pulling thing people do about being “protest elders” or “hardcore longtime activists” isn’t something you have to necessarily respect is because at a certain point its clear this shit is just your hobby, like you just like going to protests.

Fun fact: if you write for The Onion, they keep you in a room with no windows, chained to a radiator. You’re not allowed any access to news. All you’re shown is a scrolling LED sign that says “Dems are big stupid losers.” if you write anything besides that they revoke your bathroom privileges.

They may hold views that we think are racist, but you can’t write them all off as ignorant white racists either, it’s a relatively diverse group. Many of them are stupid or ignorant, but millions of them also probably understand politics about as well as you do. They want different things than you.

I do think this should put some of the hand-wringing over the uniquely sinful American electorate, uniquely feckless institutions, etc in perspective. The truth is that there is a large trans-national constituency of people who actively want this. They aren’t deceived. They want this.

... and the latter is very obviously in fact a racist movement, the former is, I dunno, depends what you think of 19th century nationalism in general (I probably would not call all such things racist ideologies fwiw), and so there is just ambiguity because different people hear different things?

Not really able to handle Big Debate right now but isn't it just that some people are using "Zionism" to mean "the core proposition of a 19th century nationalist movement i.e. that the Jewish people get a state" some people to mean "the ideology of the present expansionist settler movement"...

the reason it was unreasonable was that there were 1300 years of continuous Arab occupation, the Old Yishuv was very small, and it required essentially genocidal force to dislodge the people who now identified as Arabs who lived there now. this is also why "Israelis out of Israel" can't happen.

the other thing is that stating the objective of the 19th century movement out loud -- "the province of the Ottoman Empire from which we originated should be be an independent Jewish nation and not under Turkish rule" -- does not sound unreasonable even in 21st century terms
