I'm entirely serious about this: until you internalize the view that urban America is Real America, you won't see the urgency of structural reform of an American government whose fundamental structures so disadvantage its population centers—the great engines of its prosperity, progress, & culture.
Another good practice for the New Year would be for all the non-fascists in America who want to opine about politics to really begin believing that urban America is Real America & that its denizens are The Authentic People. Get some self-respect & drop the volkish nationalist view that they're not
And I think liberals should stop taking the bait and ceding ground on immigration.
Immigration is good. Multiculturalism is good. Free trade is good. Stop being embarrassed to say so.

The last few days did not move the main story forward AT ALL. It's just a guy eating little treats and doing nothing. And so many plot holes. He says, "no more little treats," and then he's eating another little treat in literally the next scene.

I truly believe this country would be in much better shape if the general public had this “we must destroy them” attitude about CEOs of companies that do wage theft and mass layoffs-offs instead of consenting adults who got caught violating a corporate fraternization policy.

Here's the thing. Here's how you know we're not focused on the right things. Technology that is truly focused on engaging human experience is invisible. It just enables products and services that we use. If you have to talk about the tech, you're usually trying to fill the gap in its actual utility.

My hottest take is that letting cops park in red zones for mundane errands and coffee breaks; I think “you can break the law at your discretion as a job perk” is the small domino that ends in the large domino of “shooting protesters in the face with rubber bullets”
