I am fucking BEGGING YOU to stop asking John Bolton the walrus-faced mass murderer for opinions about war
The fact that most tt (and aspirational ntt) faculty *still* don't believe that they are labor in any strong sense bodes, uh, ill.
Quick! Let's make sure we hear from a person whose professional job is PR spin! It's the only way to get the truth of the matter!
Hard to overstate how much being Dem aligned today is just a commitment to being gaslit at all times.
Literally no competent mind in the year 2025 could arrive in good faith and as a result of serious interlocution at the take you responded to here. It's not just risible as proposition, but impossible as result of functional dialogue.

It is entirely possible
that the United Health CEO was killed by a corporate-hired hitman due to the huge lawsuits happening,
Like the Boeing whistleblowers who were killed
and that evidence was planted on Luigi Mangione to frame him.
I dont know- but its possible.
The fact that a deeply smart person like you has to spill this much ink--and I agree that you do, to be clear!--to make a case this exceedingly obvious resonate for Dem-adjacent ppl in the US is, in itself, diagnostically *terrible*.
It's even worse than capitalist realism. Easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of capitalism, and impossible to imagine anything BUT the undisrupted reproduction of society.
I don't have much use for Maddow in general, but good for her here in trying to get the Dems to be *for* anything at all.
And Jeffries with just the nothingest and most Dem Party imaginable response: "We're ALREADY doing a great job!"
Maddow tries to shake @RepJeffries into meeting the moment: "Policy doesn't feel like the main conversation… we are in the middle of a Ketamine-fueled middle of the night autocratic power grab rendering Congress irrelevant, making the rule of law an afterthought if not a joke."

3/ 🔭 Extractivism is a lens through which we can look at capitalism. When we look through that lens we see... violence.
If you hate what I have to say on twitter, now you can also hate it on zoom! (Here very shortly, this evening.)
