Mamdani is right; Columbus is bad and not worthy of being honored. And this is not a case of applying modern moral standards to earlier periods - lots of people during Columbus's time thought he was overly brutal, too!

Jurisprudence has just published "Sovereignty as Magnanimous Agency", (co-authored with Leonardo Cofré) The reviewers called it “nothing short of outstanding,” “a tour de force of philosophical theory,” and… “a rather protracted reiteration of previous ideas”! www.tandfonline.com/eprint/BTGN2...
Sovereignty as magnanimous agency
The aim of this paper is to explore the notion of collective agency entailed by the theory of popular sovereignty. After examining criticisms of its classical formulation and critiquing Habermas’s ...

And, the uncomfortable part if one has liberal sensibilities, in some parts of the world this probably involves actively wielding state power against sections of the press that are just absolutely committed as a deep matter of their public mission to keeping the public ignorant and incoherent.

The Sopranos is probably the Rosetta Stone of modern American reaction: it consists of people who bemoan the loss of an imagined past they mainly got from movies, claim victimization based on identity but hate when others do it, and view the people who build the society they prey on as suckers.

Video of the international student at Tufts being arrested by "federal authorities" in Massachusetts has been released and it's terrifying.

They're not even uniformed officers. Just secret police thugs in hoodies and masks.

The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans
U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.

Cass Sunstein is a professional colleague [of sorts] of mine who I discovered, when I replied (professionally) to a (professional) comment he made, had blocked me on x for no discernible reason. So this story may be closer to our own reality than you might have imagined

As markets plummet again today from Trump's chaotic economic policies, ask yourself: Why would billionaires back policies that tank their own stock values?

It’s the taxes.

I wrote a step-by-step explainer of how billionaires avoid paying taxes. People are often surprised when I explain it.🧵

Like...they thought Kant was against logic and reason, and in favor of feelings, quite obviously because the title is the book was "The Critique of Pure Reason". It was a golden age of stupidity really.

1/ So everyone remembers this line of demeaning horse plop from Texas Rep. Ima Dingus, right? It was yesterday. Like many other Republicans right now, he's basically pulling the racist, Reagan-era "welfare queens" nonsense and giving it another run.

So I looked at SNAP data for his district.
Rep. Fallon on cutting food stamps: "We have a message for those kind of folks: If you're able-bodied and you want to milk the taxpayer, those days are over. Get off the couch, stop eating the Cheetos, stop buying the medical marijuana and watching television. You're actually gonna contribute now."
