The world’s richest person has no business anywhere near the levers of a government that regulates his businesses, especially when he profits from contracts with that government. #muskmustgo

There’s been a kind of…fashion of late to view anti-Trump libs as lame and cringe and just annoying, aesthetically. I remember this exact same aesthetic judgment in the run-up to the Iraq war. The earnest libs were right then and they’re right now.

Random shower thought incoming

That guy, as I’ll refer to him, isn’t as dumb as we like to think he is

It’s worse than that

He’s smart enough to know how much he can get away with and doesn’t care what happens to anyone else

You can’t reason with that

You can only protect yourself from it

I’m a sociologist, healthcare analyst, and single dad living in a very red state. I like guitars, movies, games, and casually talking about social theory for fun.

I just want to have intelligent conversations about cool things again without the internet ruining it with ads and sponsored content.
