I love when they adopt this defense attorney persona when talking about clearly damaging ubiquitous cultural trends the left promoted.
@InezFeltscher Really? People told you — in so many words — to disdain motherhood?
I don’t understand what’s confusing about “total freedom to migrate,” which means no borders, which cannot work if you’re also giving away cradle-to-grave social programming
@mtaibbi But you just cropped off the policy.. which is basically just immigration reform and no jails. I like your books but I think you're being disingenuous in this post. And for what, Brad Lander? Come on
No, you were told rent freezes are terrible policy that lead to less supply, more dilapidation, and worse outcomes in the end. Not that it’s not possible for socialists to vote for them.
But I was told this wasn’t possible!
“Their wealth in income tax.”
"The four richest Californians paid 0.07% of their wealth in income tax from 2019 to 2025," per NYT
The DSA thinks the system of checks and balances is an obstacle and needs overthrowing. I like the system of checks and balances. You don’t?
@mtaibbi Wow Matt, didn't know you loved the system so much. The same system giving us enshittification, forever wars and genocide
Oh, is that what the case was about? The Court convened, and the justices were asked whether they liked “big business” or those with “cancer,” and seven of the nine chose “big business”? Or was it about FIFRA’s preemption clause? The press’s coverage of the law is a disaster.

If we agree that this man’s ‘culture’ predisposes him to rape children, then why is he here? Why is anybody from that culture here? Why don’t we take child safeguarding seriously? And one more question: why aren’t those responsible for letting him in also standing trial?

Hm so the thing is that Austen, being stunningly brilliant, threaded the needle between two subtle things: 1)all her heroines are strong women with their own minds and wills, somewhat in defiance of society's norms at the time AND 2)a very clear value in all her work is that of upholding the standards and mores of polite society; over and over, her villains and fools commit the sin of being rude, reckless, impolite, and are punished or at least written unsympathetically for it, while those who know how to behave properly in each situation, how to move through society with grace, dignity, and the right thing to say in each setting, are portrayed with admiration and as the heroes. This is *essential* to understanding her work.
I fear that the fact that not only did being agreeable ‘do women good’ but it was actually essential to their survival in that specific time and place is a central tenant of the point Austen makes in literally all of her work
Sitting in a suite, just like the working class. Down with the oligarchs or something.
“Why is the Court interpreting the laws as written, as opposed to what I want them to say?” An ongoing series by Elizabeth Warren.
The Supreme Court is letting Trump ignore laws set by Congress and send hardworking, legal immigrants into imminent danger in Haiti, Syria, and other violent countries. It’s horrific. This decision is a disaster for the rule of law and a disaster for thousands of families.
So, Is Elon Musk Really Killing a Zillion People by Not Taking Care of Them Forever? This Lancet study below is all made-up, imaginary bullsh*t to begin with, but I want you to think about the implications of what the Lancet is saying. What they're saying is that if America is feeding people in Sudan or giving people in Botswana condoms to reduce the chances they get AIDS, then we are responsible for whether they live or die FOREVER. They're not responsible for themselves, and their government isn't responsible. Neither is the UN, China, Russia, Europe, NGOs, billionaires, charities, or anyone else. The United States is forever responsible for these people, and if someone we were feeding dies in 2035 of starvation or some guy gets AIDS and drops dead in 2040, it's America's responsibility for not going into debt to give him a condom. Yes, it is true that in between financing gay propaganda, putting money in the pockets of leftists, and trying to overthrow foreign nations, USAID did do some good work, basically as cover for the slush fund. But let's say it had all been good work. We still wouldn't have had any obligation to continue it, nor are we responsible for the lives of the people receiving the aid, nor should we be going into debt to provide it. It's good that USAID was folded into the State Department. It should have happened a lot sooner.
Wow. A Lancet study says Elon Musk will have killed 14 million people by 2030. Lancet is the world's top medical journal.
JFK joined the US Navy, he didn't start a group that called for “nothing short of the total collapse” of America.
Rarely misses.

I was at 9/11. I carried dead New Yorkers from the rubble. Anyone who wants to pay their respects is welcome. A piece of all of us died that day. There is no place for politics on solemn ground. However, if anyone refuses to condemn @AberKawas for saying America deserved what happened on 9/11, stay the fuck away. Mr. Mayor—condemn these comments accordingly. And remind Aber Kawas that it was America that gave her the opportunity to thrive. Have some damn respect. No smiles. No grift. Just genuine respect on the 25th anniversary. @NYCMayor @NYCPBA @FDNY @NYSDemocrats
Given everything that’s happened in New York politics, this year’s 9/11 anniversary is going to be unlike any other.
One reason my reading above hasn't caught on (despite being the literal text) is that in left-of-center circles it's still considered passé to sound like you're complaining about anti-white racism, whereas everyone knows it's not OK to oppose interracial marriage.
It's kind of interesting to me that she's being attacked for opposing interracial marriage when the specific thing she did - if you read the text - was categorically denigrate white people. Her stated complaint is that white people are evil so you shouldn't date them.
Just utterly depressing that the Democratic party is about to send someone to Congress who opposes interracial marriage for "woke" reasons, sided with Russia's invasion of Putin, and cannot answer a basic question about prison abolition despite being asked four times in a row
DSA are wretched garbage people, exhibit 1 of many
Good riddance Dan Goldman who ended his career by targeting an immigrant small business with a press tour, inspiring Trump DOJ and death threats. All because he couldn’t say no to genocide. Let his children remember that his feelings in a coffee shop overrides thousands of
Goldman stopped in the shop because his daughter had to pee and actively *discouraged* targeting the shop. We would not have known about this *but for the shop itself.* but cursing Goldman’s children is chefs kiss.
