These books don’t just explore the culture and experience of the working class — they also dive into the job itself, and “into the skin of a worker.”

If you absolutely cannot help but revel in the suffering of people who you think voted for Trump, please for the love of god just keep your mouth shut. You don't have to love or have empathy but please don't drive them back into the arms of the right wing if they're showing signs of coming out
Schadenfreude in the face of immense human suffering is one of the *least* useful responses to a crisis like this.

Genuinely, I think the “justice is punishment” mindset is a big part of how we got to this place.

People are extremely willing to be hurt if others will be hurt more. And that’s a necessary precondition for fascism to flourish.
i noticed a lot of the various american "fuck around and find out" types don't seem to be internalizing that they also live in america and will also be finding out
