Mamdani, Greens and others shouldn't really be seen as radical. Rather, they should be seen as a return to the tradition of Roosevelt and Attlee. A return to the common sense social policies that were sidelined by 40 years of a trickle-down experiment that led nowhere.
#NewDealers
Two ideas defined the 1930s. Fascism on the right and Roosevelt's New Deal on the left. The only one to survive was Roosevelt's – until "trickle-downers" started dismantling it in the 1980s. Roosevelt's New Deal is worth cheching out, as it seems to be what folk are looking for again.

I will never understand how a website started as a sophomoric “hot or not” platform became so powerful.
🔥 Finally an EU leader says it out loud:

“We have been incredibly naive in entrusting our democratic space to social networks that are controlled either by large American entrepreneurs or large Chinese companies, whose interests are not at all the survival or proper functioning of our democracies.”
President Macron: “Europeans, let's wake up!

We have been incredibly naive in entrusting our democratic space to social networks.”

We will have an easier time blocking confirmation of some than others. Tulsi Gabbard is on the TSA’s international terrorist watch list. She should be easy to block IF we all call.

so far the only explanation i've seen that doesn't smack of "if only she'd listen to me she would have won" is "global discontent with incumbents because of inflation and post-pandemic malaise + toxic information environments"

I am much more sensitive to “wrong” laughter after Christine Blasey Ford told her story. Women in my life reacted viscerally to that part of her story. People laughing like Billy Bush did is a HUGE red flag. There was *nothing* funny in Trump’s statements.
I had forgotten how Billy Bush had laughed during the whole story. I found that far more disturbing now than when I first heard it.
