If I'm correct it's because Democratic electeds and consultants want to win by default, that is reach a political equilibrium in which the GOP are seen as too extreme to govern, and a plurality of voters have no choice but to elect Democrats. This results in sliding right and taking the temperature.

Honestly, the only ethical relationship to have with Israel at this point is to act in such a way that you would be denied entry if you tried to go.
BDS means BDS.
This ain’t it.
And this better not be a paid appearance.

If you were a despotic president, what movie would you force Hollywood to make? I want to see Quentin's Star Trek movie or maybe Kill Bill Vol 3.

Think this is why KCD1 and 2 land for me. They convey the *feeling* of playing Henry so well, the stories themselves are respectively pretty simple or kind of convoluted. But that's in part because Henry is just some dope or, later, knows just enough to be misled.
"you have not played the game unless you've played the game" is one of my more annoying but unshakable opinions
the whole "don't play the game, just watch a video on youtube that will explain its story to you" is so disheartening because the issue of accessibility is genuinely really important but it's always just people who want to be spoon-fed nicely quantifiable information

One good thing about Bari Weiss is that she articulates the worldview of the 0.00001% with total clarity, and thereby makes it obvious that they are dangerously out of their minds.

I once knew a Federal bank examiner, and one time someone asked him why we had to KEEP inspecting banks over and over. He basically said every new batch of business school grads invents bank fraud from first principles.

The underlying cause of every bubble - debt masquerading as financial innovation - depends on not just short financial memory & speculative neophytism, but reinventing jargon of finance, like how each generation of kids has new ways to say same things.

I think the "centrist compromise" here would be something like, sure Abolish ICE but then we replace it with a new immigration enforcement agency that employs investigators and not thugs. I'm an ~open borders radical~ who'd hate this too, but it says something I doubt they'd even support that.
There appears to be massive grassroots support for Abolish ICE and basically no interest whatsoever from Democratic electeds.
