Bublik Shocker

If you read @benrothenberg.bsky.social's profile with Alexander Bublik, you know the Kazakh says he's finally gotten serious about his game

But, for much of his career, Bublik has said plenty of stuff but rarely showed the commitment to fulfill his potential

Maybe that's changing?

One of the sources of rot running through our political, intellectual, and media institutions is the total triumph of the idea that democracy means outsourcing your morality and point of view to a fuzzily incoherent view of what's popular. Total rejection of the idea of morality as personal virtue.
How is this different than what Republican senators say about Trump
