This take misses that in the US, candidates don’t represent parties. The candidates are assigned to the parties by popular vote. Part of the problem was we eliminated part of the role of parties, actually setting policy and enforcing it through candidate choice.
If we keep electing ppl who represent a party, we will keep getting ppl who don't represent us. We need to eliminate ALL political parties.

The USSR had massive famine as a result of putting ideologically pure ideas (Lysenko's theory of inheritance) over well-founded science (Mendel's Genetics).
No reason to mention it, im sure.

This had begun to shift by 2015 — anti vaccine movement became increasingly right-coded after the responses to the Disneyland measles outbreak. Very intentionally so, as Robert F Kennedy Jr and others began to realize that they could exploit precisely this.

What possible restraunt needs 40 hours of banal data entry and filing? What work beyond the scope of a bookkeeper are you asking for? What are they doing that you need them working bankers hours?

Everyone hates HoAs. The best way to deal with a bad how is participate in his governance. The reason they break bad Is if no one is participating, those who want power easily get that power, and have few limits on the power they weild.

There are a lot of people very angry about Trump's constitutional crisis, who were complaining 2 months ago that if wed just caused a constitutional crisis, we could have prevented Trump from being elected, and the people behind Project 2025 would have combusted, ending the threat forever.

I'm at the point I can't tell if the blue sky progressives are genuinely xenophobic about Musk's birthplace, or its a bit, but I guarantee if we get out of this with out a war, the backlash is going to feature an anti-immigrant wave targeting H1-B visa holders as "DEI hires" unironically.

I want to put out a counter narrative to the Trump will be the god king narrative presented by the fears of my progressive colleagues. GOP operatives in the legislature and the judiciary don't actually want king trump. Sure, their moves have helped trump and damaged the dems. 1/

"I've never called you"
"Company X calls me every day. You are Company X in this conversation. Stop calling me."

Unless you have two direct witnesses and a signed declaration of intent, SCOTUS is out here reminding all of us that so long as you give your quid after the quo, its all gravy. Might want to start looking at decisions made BEFORE gifts were given to justices.
