All the Fauci stuff is a modern day version of the POW/MIA stuff after Vietnam - a way to try to rewrite the history of a huge failure of conservative ideology to be instead a story about how liberals and foreigners stabbed us in the back.

Had an important conversation @donmoyn.bsky.social. We went through his "authoritarian checklist" and analyzed where Trump has been successful (many areas, sadly) and where he has not. newrepublic.com/article/2130...

Transcript: Trump’s Authoritarianism Has Failed in One Critical Way
Political scientist Donald Moynihan argues that Trump has consolidated power on many fronts, but has largely failed in his efforts to take control of the U.S. election process.

the provinces decline to offer tribute, the armies return in defeat, the temple of the arts has closed its doors, and the name of the Emperor is scoured from the palaces by his own magistrates. now the sun and storms turn against him. the Mandate is lost.

here's the thing about the courts: we actually need more judges! everyone is overworked and cases often linger for ages because there's just not enough capacity in the system to get to them what I'm saying here is the supreme court isn't the only part of the courts we can pack

if 30% of the population believed that a creature called
'Glonzo' caused high electricity prices by chewing on power lines any competent politician would be negligent in not trying to find a way to leverage this belief. this doesn't mean those people wouldn't be fucking morons.

I don't think YIMBY will ever win a decisive victory on the affordability front - too many confounding factors. We have to win the argument that *intensification is good in itself*. It is necessary for ecologically sustainable, cosmopolitan, 15-minute, car-free cities. Sprawl is reactionary.

i do not understand the point of view which believes the following: (1) this is the worst possible outcome (2) everything done up to this point was done correctly (3) to have acted more aggressively would have been worse (4) to consider course correction is wrecking and will make things worse

framers basically went "i am going to create a system without those terrible political parties", spent 0.0002 seconds trying to govern without them, and immediately gave up and created them anyway

the Democratic Party should have 2 major goals for the next time it holds power: (1) completely rebuild the destroyed federal government capacity, and (2) crush the GOP, which enabled so much corruption and immiseration. destroy their funding, jail their leaders, make it so a new party has to emerge

this is the crux of the matter for me. I just don't believe Platner didn't know what he had on his skin for twenty years. I can imagine forgiving an edgelord take on this but lying about it undermines the entire whole apology, such as there's an apology.

ok. I never argued that, and I don't think that. not going to keep discussing with someone who is going to repeatedly "so you hate waffles". you can read what I said or argue against the version of me you made up in your head, your choice

Democrats can demand a rollback of the Supreme Court ICE racial profiling case. It’s a trivial legislative fix. It poses virtually no political risk for them. It protects 68 million people from open government persecution. It protects basic constitutional values. No government funding without this.
