This is where Carl Schmitt had his strongest criticism of the third reich. He knew it wouldn’t last because they couldn’t see beyond themselves and their claims at being world historical actors. A rare bit of encouragement from that goober

Among all the other things, too, but if American democracy is going to make it, we've got to stop assuming people who went to law school are smart.

"Whenever capitalism triumphs, that fugitive space grows smaller, that alternative future grows dimmer. As that future disappears, it becomes harder to imagine or to posit a time, including a past, when capitalism did not exist." Love Robin's Wolin-inspired analysis

Right it’s quite literally Schmittian politics of existential enmity. Sovereignty to these people means they decide the exception and are not beholden to rules as they pursue the destruction of their enemies

My grandfather spent his whole life in NYC before he was offered a scholarship to the U of Minnesota for college (and eventually med school). A Jewish kid from the LES of NYC, he had not encountered anything like the KKK. When a rally came to town, he and some others brought 2x4s and busted it up.

Fight well. I'll see that your remains are sent home to your families.

Moonlight's beauty weakens the androids.
It's why they seek out sunlight

The peace you take for granted was the result of war.
You dishonor the dead and the unborn when you refuse to fight.
