Highly recommend.

@tennessippi.bsky.social's pictures from my hometown made me a little bit nostalgic, so I thought I'd post one from what will probably be my last trip to the US for several years.

A lot of American political analysts call things “economic populism” that are just generally accepted policies in most of the developed world.

Workers’ rights, family leave, universal healthcare, lower educational costs, etc.

Globally, these are not radical or even populist policies. It’s normal.

When your leaders are a reality TV star and a car salesman, this is what you get.

If you take away the ability to make more money than any other country in the world, what is appealing about living in the U.S.?

I like the idea of anti-consumerism as a political strategy under the Trump/Musk administration, especially avoiding MAGA supporting businesses when possible.

Welp
I really hope I’m wrong, but economically the next 6 months to a year may make 2020 look like a cake walk.

Trump is the Ugly American.

Behaving the stereotype with his selfishness, greed, lack of morality, entitlement, impatience, ignorance and aggression.

Adorned in tacky clothing, artificial hair, and a spray tan while waiting for his next Big Mac.

The U.S. has always had two competing myths.

- one based off selfishness, greed, and white supremacy

- one considering “all men are created equal” and where diversity is our strength

The sooner the tariffs, the sooner we get mass political change in the US.

Never forget that the main hobby of many Americans is some form of shopping.

Brazil seems like a strange reflection of the U.S. Tons of natural resources, the mixture of the Indigenous, European, African and Asian. Exploitation on an economic level, yet beautiful art, food, and culture happening only because of the mixing of people and cultures.

One of the many problems of Elon Musk is that he only thinks in technological metaphors.

Like treating the government like a “server” that can be unplugged and plugged back in.

I’ve enjoyed taking a little break from this app.

Working on music, writing a little more long form, getting great new students, and planning future travels.

The "frontier mindset" is deeply American and is why so many rural Americans (even those that voted for Harris) believe that Trump "won't impact them that much."

You would think that with the globalization and digitalization of the world, this ideology would die out, but this myth survives.
