The right consistently defeats the broad/liberal left at strategy in this country. While liberals fetishized the constitution, conservatives instrumentalized it.

Feel like democratic socialists need to get back to that constitutional agitation thing that they were doing from 2017 to 2019 which demands to abolish the electoral college, abolish the senate, and so on. Aziz Rana's scholarship on this country's legal mechanisms should be required reading.

Misinformation *is* central to democratic problems today, but the solution is *not* to correct such epistemic failures directly. Instead, we must address them at their roots, in social identity.
Or so I argue in a new post for @apaphilosophy.bsky.social.

Ok so they ARE literally trying to starve people into rebellion to justify more crackdowns 🥴
The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse.
I'm aware of at least 2 stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email

this sort of thing is pretty common with the modern right, collapsing all distinctions between liberalism and communism. they do it with Keynes too, whose foremost goal was to save capitalism from the Great Depression.

It's not at all alarmist to expect that the new network of detention centers will be used to confine unhoused people—and to extract free labor from them. Everything in this executive order points in that direction.

Under Trump, the draconian future of homelessness policy is coming into focus: mass internment. Utah is building a 16-acre site to detain up to 1,300 homeless people inside locked "accountability centers." This is profoundly alarming.

I know it’s too much to expect them to know their history, but if the American Revolution had a motto, it definitely would not have been “immigrants go home.”
It would have been “get your fucking soldiers out of our cities.”
