Imagine wanting to tour Brooklyn. Sad.

[Heidi N. Moore @moorehn]

all my life living in New York, I believed in never gatekeeping, always sharing the good spots. But now I am at 180° away from that belief. Anything even mildly good about the city, if shared, gets ruined and overrun instantly. and the people overrunning it are pure selfish narcissists with no regard for anyone else, none of the city's spirit of situating yourself among others. Just selfish little suburban brats everywhere taking incredibly stupid photos. It really does have to stop somehow.

[Steven Pinker @sapinker]

The "Frankfurt School" of Adorno, Horkheimer, Marcuse, and (ambivalently) Habermas had a massive diffuse influence on modern academia, even if the original sources and lines of influence have been forgotten. This can be seen in its vague, incoherent, and ineffectual sympathy for some kind of not-exactly-but-sort-of Marxism, the conviction that capitalism is odious and moribund without any thought-through alternative. Scott Alexander @slatestarcodex explains in his review of a book on the history and ideas of the school. https://t.co/xCTjEHwH1t

@GuthmannR Bizarre that people think of Marx as an “economist”! Have you not seen the title of Capital??
