like the most redeeming thing about the neoliberal movement in the US was they were neutral to positive about immigration, explicitly pro-trade openness in the developed world, and broadly accepting of diverse tastes and preferences (in consumer behavior)

no, no. those are the editors. they hate their audience

look, once in awhile you have to hand it to the neoliberals and not being economic nationalists is specifically one of those instances

Neoliberalism has several sins but, "super high tariffs" and "nanny state scolding about nutritional value," are not among them.

You can't logic your way out of being burnt out. Unless you're me. Who should be able to do it and it's a personal failing that I can't

POLITICO: “.. They referred to Black people as monkeys and ‘the watermelon people’ and mused about putting their political opponents in gas chambers. They talked about raping their enemies .. and lauded Republicans who they believed support slavery.

one response to this (correct) observation is to say “well, the cops will attack you no matter how you dress and behave.” that’s right. images of cops and ICE beating grandmas and kids in inflatable frog costumes is a win for the opposition.

one of the reasons they're so mad at "no kings" is that they thought they were going to get a different kind of protest. they *want* the black bloc to be out there fighting with the cops. those are the images they've been trying to generate from "go." instead--

MAGA Rage at “No Kings” Boils Over—and It Quickly Backfires on Trump
As Trump allies smear the coming protests, a good writer on MAGA skewers the absurdity of these attacks on large swaths of Americans—and explains why our best recourse will be to turn out in force.

Tariffs have rapidly increased the price of coffee—a drink with almost no nutritional value and lots of functional substitutes. Yet coffee may also be the one thing Americans can’t live without, @elcush.bsky.social writes:
The Drink That Americans Won’t Give Up Without a Fight
Coffee has almost no nutritional value and lots of substitutes. It’s also, apparently, too important to lose.

Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas, you need to chill
Chart from the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas charting GDP per capita with AI scenarios. It includes a benign Technological Singularity scenario and one where it leads to extinction. Both happen in the mid-2020s

like this is not a new deal they are being offered, it is just a deal israel would not take before literally a few days ago

hamas has been offering to surrender in exchange for amnesty, release of the hostages, and some interregnum (non-israeli) governance of the strip pretty much since november of 2023
tiredgenerally.bsky.social
i do not think this is what happened at all, israel made significant concessions they were not willing to make before.
tiredgenerally.bsky.social
i cannot get over how quickly this is happening. the decline of the other two branches/ascent of the lawless executive is outpacing actual democratic decline, which is usually what precipitates executive consolidation. but in our case, the other two branches are collaborators

We are living through the most consequential shift in the constitutional government of the United States in over a hundred and fifty years and nobody seems to have even noticed yet.

Congress no longer holds the power of the purse, the executive can just do whatever they want with federal monies
tiredgenerally.bsky.social
look, trump is basically an amoral sociopath and i think liberals should do some introspection on why the democratic former president and significant leading figures in the party took/are taking *moral* (ideological) positions which are comparable or perhaps worse than him
