I spent my late 20s hoping someone would fall in love with me on the subway because I was reading Célan Thackeray or Turgenev the entirety of Philip Roth’s oeuvre and no one did and I regret none of it

( now I really read mostly women, and, no regrets there either )
People are being accused of "reading performatively", that is reading in public as a way of showing off or 'looking cool'?

That sounds like an accusation made by people who don't read.

You can see in Locke’s thinking on property how he sets the stage for liberals siding with conservatives on property in the capitalist era, property being more important that social equality to liberals, and is one big reason they always side with the right on hierarchy when there’s a left option

Liberalism is a center position on the political spectrum, answering yes on the political question (whether people ought to have formal equal legal rights) but no on social questions (should people be actually equal? right to food/housing/healthcare). But when I explain it to students I feel insane

BREAKING: Trump admin once again asked the Supreme Court to freeze full SNAP payments.

As Americans are struggling, this self-serving President is spending his time and resources trying to prevent people from getting food to feed their children.

I have been following national Congressional politics since I was a teenager in Obama I. This is how it always works. Regardless of their actual seat totals, The Democrats "somehow" always have just enough moderates (not too many or too little) that they concede to the GOP on every major issue.

The Trump administration told states in a late-night Saturday memo that they must “immediately undo” any actions to provide full food stamp benefits to low-income families, adding to the chaos surrounding the anti-hunger program. Here’s a timeline of the SNAP developments that led up to this point.

Mamdani's line that billionaires spent more to oppose his candidacy than he proposed to tax them really says it all.

Like a company that shuts down a profitable location as soon as it unionizes. The principle of maintaining control is more important.
