Liberals of the world unite! We have nothing to lose but the death grip of fascism, choking the life out of our dreams of a free and flourishing future.
this is what i mean about the new liberal internationalism: we, liberals, need to start thinking about what it means to organize liberal-liberal rather than state-state

If you want to build a society around solidarity & non-zero-sum cooperation, you have to find a way to go around these folks, to deny them power, to develop social norms that marginalize them. You're not going to persuade or convert them.

Gäller svenska poliser som verkställer utvisningar av HBTQIA+personer eller griper narkotikabrukare också.
"many of them don't want to be doing what they've been directed to do"

Oh come on.

These guys are not conscripts, there is no commissar with a pistol behind them looking for signs of wavering.

They can just quit at any time! They can quit today. They can quit tomorrow.
In an interview with @whitneycwimbish.bsky.social, Blas Nuñez-Neto wouldn't tell us his clients, but did say we should remember that ICE agents are people too. (Can't believe this quote below)

The point is, ladies and gentlemen, that woke, for lack of a better word, is good. Woke is right, woke works. Woke clarifies, cuts through and captures the essence of the evolutionary spirit.

Every country (yes, including yours) has dipshit right wing authoritarians in it who only value liberal democracy as a means for acquiring power and allowing them to exist when defeated and treating them as a fifth column is absolutely necessary

I don't really believe in limits on immigration to begin with, but conceding that we DO have such limits: deportation is a monstrous and inhumane means of enforcing them, and should be abolished, ~without exception

Make it hard to enter the country? Fine I guess. But once you're in, you're in

Kan Stockholm Pride utesluta de övriga transfobpartierna också, tack? Det finns inget egenvärde i att alla partier skall vara med om de inte driver på förbättringar för HBTQ+personer.

Detta berör kärnan i den asymmetri som stör mig: Fascisterna är mer än glada i att göra saker ogjorda, men oppositionen till dem är helt ointresserad av det när fascisterna härjat runt.
to any politicians out there: the only metric by which i am deciding my votes in any future Democratic primary is how far they're willing to go in punishing this administration and i am far from the only one

I *like* pride washing.

I *like* that stores had to put out rainbow merch and bend the knee to my civil and human rights, and our status as the reason they can stay in business.

Anyone who hates that is deeply suspect to me.

When so many other so-called liberal publications wring their hands about securing the border and the "legitimate concerns" of white folks in diners, at Liberal Currents you will find forthright advocacy for open borders and freedom of movement. 🧵

It’s hard to find ideas that 99% of economists will agree on, “inflation will get worse if the central bank stops being independent and starts setting interest rates based on the short term whims of the president” is one of them

Man undrar ju hur mycket de europeiska mjölkbönderna mjölkar skattebetalarna på bidrag när mjölkprodukter i Brasilien inte är nämnvärt billigare än i Sverige.

Gäller universellt, inte bara i Förenta staterna.

Another example of the fact that there are very few technically difficult questions of economics; "difficult questions" are just difficult because you don't like the obvious answer
I'm afraid there *is* an obvious answer: it can't.

Tokyo is a city that makes the argument that architecture is irrelevant.

What matters more is urbanism:

The street network

The density

The freedom of uses

The clustering around rail

A polity in which it's considered naive or irrelevant to center political discourse on the general welfare or abstract moral principles cannot sustain a "democracy" in any sense worth defending; it's just a scrabble to assemble the largest coalition for the purpose of divvying spoils.

EU har efter otaliga år av krig inte ens lyckats avbryta handeln med ett ekonomiskt obetydligt land där sanktionerna inte skulle göra någon betydande skillnad i tillvaron. En invasion av Grönland skulle leda till ett ännu mer omfattande icke-agerande.

Sweden has not yet recovered their transitioning speed towards BEV. They're late compared to others, where things now go back to acceleration. But they can still afford it, as they started a bit earlier.

Tåget i går ställs in, bokar flyg till i dag som ställs in, SAS ombokar till onsdag. 🙃 Kanske bäst att inte åka bort över jul och nyår.

Bostadsproblemet skulle lösas med aggressiv utbudspolitik, exempel 7263526736383. (Airbnb och annan korttidsuthyrning är en fullt legitim och okej verksamhet och ingen blir hemlös ”på grund av” den utan på grund av politiker som förhindrar tillräcklig nyproduktion.)
Slightly more than 1% of Madrid’s dwelling units are listed as whole-unit rentals. If the city were letting supply keep pace with demand, that’s not even one single year of new production. Yet more of the housing shortage discourse is about Airbnb than low production.

När SJ ställer in tåg ”på grund väderlek” en dag då inga vädervarningar råder på sträckan hade det ju varit hjälpsamt om man kunde begära återbetalning direkt i appen och inte behöva ringa kundtjänst och köa i två timmar.
