Great piece by Zadie Smith. When the right talks about classics or "Western" culture, these works are only important to the extent that it demonstrates their superiority, they have no interest in art in and of itself beyond that www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

When the Conservative Party in Korea declared martial law, the Korean Democrats knew if they didn’t send them to hell there would be no opposition afterwards. And look at them. They’re taking the ex conservative president and ensuring he never breathes free ever again.

sometimes i feel like the republican party is a big tornado that is coming to kill me. and the democratic party is the rickety shed that i'm hiding in. and i say "we should really fix this shed, because it's not doing much." and people say "what? why aren't you criticizing the tornado instead?!"

The public-facing side of American conservative politics more or less amounts to crashing out constantly about a bunch of shit that either you or the weird liars you listen to uncritically have made up. The non-public part, from what we've seen of the chat logs and such, is somehow much worse.

![Interivew with Carl Reiner and mel brooks about their friendship:
REINER Yeah, we got that big screen [gestures to incredibly large flat-screen monitor] to look at television.
Q. So you come here, Mel, and you watch TV together?
BROOKS Almost every night. He’s got a wonderful housekeeper-cook and we decide on a menu and a movie.
Q. What did you watch most recently?
BROOKS We watched last night “The Peacemaker.” With Nicole Kidman and, come on. [He gestures to Mr. Reiner.]
REINER George Clooney.
BROOKS Right. It was two and a half stars at the most. Good performances, very silly, you know.
REINER We look for movies with the line “Secure the perimeter.”
BROOKS Yeah, we like movies that say, “Secure the perimeter” and/or “You better get some rest.”
REINER “Lock all doors!”
BROOKS “I want a five-block seal!”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:r335dcuzq7ta2fmsb2gk4dgn/bafkreiedzfvzpn6vjfmdnh53qypvfbz5jamzupo5rrysifikxyie5y77qy@jpeg)

I fucking hate these people dude. They don’t want to do anything. They don’t want to fight for anything. They have no ideology.
There's also a growing consensus from Democratic officeholders that the party's reaction to the Trump administration's efforts to cut government programs, fire workers and radically reshape the federal government should not be reflexively undoing it.
The Democratic Party is still trying to figure out its message after 2024's defeat
Facing low approval rates, after last year's electoral losses, the Democratic Party is working to figure out its strategy ahead of the 2026 midterm elections.
