Fucking unbelievable that the big publications are running with this as the lead story after the Supreme Court just promised to install a convicted felon rapist insurrectionist as Emperor for Life.

I have no idea the best path re Biden but I do know a solid week straight of “Biden Old” and “Rich Dems Worried” above-the-fold stories are *obscene* in the face of SCOTUS using the Constitution to wipe their asses purely in the service of reinstating a felon rapist as president. Crazy-making shit.

Reasonable, right? This is the type of so-called "administrative state" regulation that conservatives and big corporations have been railing against for years. Know this: All that deregulation amounts to is bigger profits for the rich at the expense of everyone else.

Biden is too old. But he has surrounded himself with competent people and has had a conventional first term. Trump is authoritarian but inept. He has surrounded himself with people he hopes will make him more effective at authoritarianism. Neither is ideal. But these are not similar problems.

You’re forgiven for the Mad Max images this brings to mind, because movie tropes are what all of this is the IDF. It’s not a war; it’s the culmination of a lifetime of propaganda and playing soldier. It’s not self-defense; It’s dehumanization on a cinematic scale. It’s comic book grotesquerie.

Kristof invokes this as an example of wasteful performativity but it's actually the kind of data-backed policymaking he claims liberal states have abandoned. Giving poor kids access to menstruation products is a no-brainer both empirically and morally.

Morbid curiosity got the best of me, and I read this. The argument is literally that Dolly Parton is a fake, destructive Christian because despite a lifetime of kindness, decency, philanthropy, and spreading joy around the world, she won’t explicitly condemn gay people for their wickedness.

The most successful scammers are the ones who figure out how to sell their junk to cops. No civilian oversight of their budgets or auditing their spending. It’s lifetime income, lifetime support upsells, ever-expanding market because there’s always money for cops to buy more crap.

Israel is not responsible for its actions, that's literally what you're saying. Israel's actions are now far beyond reponding to any Hamas aggression/have nothing to do with hostages. They are deliberately wiping Palestine off the map, and Hamas is just a convenient excuse. Netanyahu loves Hamas...

Good fucking lord, you can argue semantics all you want, but Israel is indiscriminately slaughtering and starving Palestinian civilians, and their actions have nothing to do with protecting their own border and citizens.
