It's a level of purity that you can only maintain if your "activism" is 100% online.

I truly think in retrospect, Trump traveling and giving daily speeches for 32 days is going to turn out to be somehow more disastrous than we can comprehend rn

There are several museums that cover both slavery and the Holocaust, like the one in Dallas.

I've become convinced there's no such thing as a functional center-right majoritarian government. It's purely an artifact of modern people attempting to larp monarchy back into existence.

I think a lot of American leftists look at Europe and they flatten it into one homogenous system, lionizing genuine progress made by Eurosocialists, but falling to recognize all these countries have bifactional politics and that Eurosoc parties are reliably less socially progressive than Democrats.

I think that the US response to 9/11 and the Israeli response to 10/7 should have been exactly what the Indian response to 26/11 was: punish as many perpetrators as possible without starting a major regional war. We *have* a counterfactual here. India made the right call. Israel and the US didn't.

I think there's something about how depraved the war on terror is that sets people to go off the deep end. The only guy who hasn't seems to be Spencer Ackerman.

tbh i respect the israeli strategists who are honest in saying "yes we think the US should back us for ideological reasons" over people retrofitting their understandings of how Israel fits into US FP back into Carter/Reagan understandings of MENA

Part of this is that people tend to think it has to be a kayfabe, because politicians are way too civil with their opposition to believe what they say.

I guess my question is why should the US help Israel in a "war of national survival", if it ever came to that?

it’s also bad because america has a lot of very important functions deferred to state level government, and it is pretty clearly bad for governance for 80% of the country to live under de-facto competitive authoritarianism

it will be very funny, if/when a future dem administration makes literally any move against Israel, no matter how limited, to see the cleavage appear between people who are just party loyalists defending israel in order to defend Biden, and the ones who will oppose the D president over israel

There should be no statutory death penalty because the only cases in which it's appropriate are ones where the state itself has been extinguished because of its leaders' crimes. It's the ultimate state of exception.

If you went to an American high school with an average parental tax bracket in the “comfortable” range, there’s a good chance you know Bryant Grober. Bry: cute and popular, on the teams it was cool to be on, kind of a dick around his friends but perfectly cordial when you were lab partners. Somewhere in your yearbook, there’s a picture of him. It’s a close-up reproduced large, because the yearbook editors wanted everyone to appreciate Bry’s amazing eyes. Chris, with his equally amazing but soul-freezing eyes, might seem a more unheimlich figure. Both boys were rapists, not just the one who had the brio to announce it so insouciantly.

You try to give Israeli athletes the benefit of the doubt but they almost always end up sounding like a mix of Slobodon Milosevic and Oliver Cromwell.

a basic concept of criminal law is that someone wronging you is generally not *justification* for murder, but is *motive* but *when painfully executing murderers*, we use the fact that they wronged society as justification for killing them

That's about what they are in most US grocery stores. I just paid $5 for a pound at Safeway, which is higher than what I paid in the middle of the summer. People forget that fruit is seasonal.

For non-soccer fans: this scandal is basically a microcosm of what is going on everywhere re: the ultra-wealthy doing whatever they want because they can. Man City cheated like hell. But here is the prime minister implying they’re just too valuable to the UK to hold to account. It sucks

Which is fine of course because in a mass democracy the only way to do anything substantial enough to be called a "project" is to HAVE A PARTY that's collectively invested in that project. How else would you even do it?

that generation theory shit Bannon believes in is stupid, but i do think there's broadly something you can pick up on for repeating cycles in human behavior. my own understanding of them is that this is the low point and the '30s and '40s will probably be a lot better if patterns hold

Biden had a lot of good picks where he leaned on basically Warrenite nomenklatura but a lot of his other picks were "I worked with this guy 10 years ago and will ride or die for him" which is both noble but not actually good

Very frustrating to see what looks like an interesting podcast discussion about left Catholicism and liberation theology only to find out that the hosts are class-first, anti-woke, "but the white working class", Planter defenders.
