in October, the rationalist San Francisco substack world got into a big tiff about the Sun Miracle of Fatima, with half of the big name rationalist bloggers deciding that maybe God really did do it. Really fascinating stuff

this is a perfectly good theory which presents the problem that it has not happened once in american history
Independent, pro-worker, class warrior candidates can absolutely beat Republicans in red states if they are not tainted by the Democratic Party brand. The labor movement can make this happen systematically.

an absolute classic instance 'we can't do this good thing because this good thing isn't full communism'
Problem is, if they did that, they would have to become anti-capitalist, because capitalism at the end of the day is one huge scam. Owners steal the surplus value produced by workers and enrich themselves, which then is used to reshape society through laws, regulations, advertising and PR.

So embarrassing how often GM streetcar conspiracy posts do well on NUMTOTs.
Plenty of legitimate criticisms of 20th century American urban planning and transportation policies that lefties should be making, but unfortunately too many socialists are so lazy about history.

Let’s start by ousting Jeffries and Schumer and appointing leaders who will fight for their voters rather than their lobbyists. Leaders who will throw punches at fascism rather than just write scolding letters.

This is just a few minutes from my old Congressional office. Local high school has a 97% graduation rate, Netflix is opening a $1B movie studio down the road, and Bruce Springsteen was born and raised around the corner (and still lives there). So yeah…tell me more.
