Seurat is laying the ground work for how the victims of this genocide will be blamed once again for their own slaughter.

Israel’s new campaign is already a military and humanitarian crisis because it is the next phase of a Holocaust. Israel is the one that dictates how this crisis ends.

A nation that spends $1.1M a day on authoritarian theater while refusing $169K to house the homeless reveals its true creed: power over people, spectacle over survival. Budgets are moral documents—this one indicts us all.

“The White House needs to learn from the Kremlin’s success…” like are we being serious with this article?

Why would we 1. want to give Trump the permission structure to warm a cold war and 2. emulate the authoritarian regime trying to forcibly occupy it’s neighbors?

A great comparison in this article and one I keep making to friends is between Pre-Great War Europe and Post-Cold War Washington.

As Royalty died, it’s members either smoothly slid into the upper class of the next social order. Or failing to do so, they kicked and screamed causing 2 World Wars.

I remember thinking the same thing during the cabinet picks. I thought Rubio would be a Pence-ish figure that nudges Trump back towards the line.

At this point, he’s looking more like the teachers pet friend. The one you have work their magic to save a busted group project!

I think just letting people figure it out only goes so far. I mean policy in how we use government to ensure the integrity of best practices.

However, this is one of the few parts about the new “Abundance” framework I agree with. Our systems are bogged down in regulations!

So “Tactical Urbanism” is just people finding ways around simple inconveniences that the state won’t bother to actually address with policy?

Don’t get me wrong this is very cool but we don’t need new terms to excuse the inaction of our municipal systems.

Friedland’s show fits with a liberal podcast tone that has developed with the works of Brittany Broski, Ziwe, and other independent/self-produced talk-show like channels.

Adam feels closer to Eric Andre but I do think his example of direct conversations with appetizing jokes for content is helping.
