The "people should know their place" coalition
i do think there's something to be said for how there's basically been a preference cascade in elite opinions both in the US and UK, and it's not going to end well for either country imo
"Has feminism failed women brought to you by bank of america" is my MKULTRA sleeper agent activation phrase

The FT is liberal (laudatory), the Economist is liberal (derogatory)
There's an old joke to the effect that the only places you'll find the facts about how things really work printed are in obscure Marxist rags and the Financial Times, just from opposite ends of the class war, and these days I'm not always sure of the last bit.

"economic sentiment is just vibes now" well look, unless you're actively preparing for war or something, the only point of the economy is to produce good vibes. Not doing so is a failure

The GOP believes voters will reward them for screaming about and hurting trans people not because the voters *have* rewarded them (by and large, embracing transphobia has not won them elections) but because they hate trans people and are backfilling reasons to go after them
Legitimately the stupidest possible reason to do this. (Archive link: archive.ph/hN0n9)
Republicans are trying to change the subject on health care affordability — to transgender care
In a spate of votes and announcements, the GOP is tacking hard to an issue where the party sees an advantage.

All but one US President has been a white man.
65% of all elected offices are held by white men.
Roughly 30% of the population is white men.

As we saw with the Abrego Garcia case, once their screwup becomes public, this administration doubles down and tries to destroy the life of their victim with a campaign of slander and brutality. Just watch how they're going to go after this woman and her family.

Yeah, if they can't actually overturn the 14th Amendment they'll just claim there's no evidence that people were born here

I don’t think many folks outside academia are fully registering what is going on right now.
1) Neoliberal university-as-business model
2) Mass de-skilling of the intellectual class
3) Unprecedented cuts to programs across the board
4) Dismantling public education
5) AI as partner to de-skilling

No it’s ok we can cut all the area studies programs. We’ll just hire one “global studies“ Prof with a degree in English literature.

I haven't read the article yet (a friend texted me to let me know that I was referenced in it) but I gotta say, this whole "mediocre and inadequate white men can't handle their own mediocrity and inadequacy" framing is a real problem.

- Told Adin Ross that he'd do a "covetous jew" celebration on his next TD score
Suspend him tbh
