McManus remarkably extracts liberal elements historically couched in socialist thought, constructing a fundamental sketch of how liberal socialism could catalyze a reimagined, original liberal social paradigm: a necessary step in overcoming and transcending authoritarian populism. A work of beauty.

Limitations to possible choices in our daily lives ensure unintended consequences of our choices. Embrace those consequences as opportunities for self-development and awareness. Peace.

"It’s not just lefties who are increasingly skeptical of the Democratic party. It’s the base, normie liberal voters who are beginning to realize this entire institution is rotten from the inside out."

In this I tell Joe Davidson how Trump/Musk might turn their attack on federal workers, their agencies, & their rights to bargain collectively into another PATCO moment, hurting not only feds and their unions, but all workers and unions--as happened under Reagan--only worse this time bit.ly/41II3uR
