@TroyA09126438 @TheJoeySwoll OMFG, I laughed until I cried. This is a genius level insult. Bravo.

@mattyglesias Of course, it turns out the economy did not need stimulus at that point anyway, was already being overstimulated into worse inflation in decades.

[Rory B Bellows @RoryBBellows_]

@czechboy0 Sounds like a reason to have fewer people.

@JasSch1 @ArmandDoma Declining suspension rate is not a goal in and of itself. What were the results of the reduction in suspension? If it’s more disruption to students and learning overall, then reducing suspension rates is a bad thing.

@Noahpinion Based Poles.

@Saxman3456 @mattyglesias I believe it was abandoned factories/warehouses.

@clarice_lambs @SooLin22 @bluestein @burtjonesforga I would agree with this. Herschel was dumber, but Jones is probably more malevolent. A spoiled rich kid with some power.

@N0tAnthonyDavis @Noahpinion They may be, I’m just pointing out that the “demography is destiny” idea (which Noah is NOT endorsing, just referencing), is one that leads to lots of stupid, perverse outcomes.

[Rory B Bellows @RoryBBellows_]

@Noahpinion And then the same folks wonder why things, such as immigration, that alter demographics are furiously resisted by the right!

[Rory B Bellows @RoryBBellows_]

@SooLin22 @clarice_lambs @bluestein @burtjonesforga He has had big fights with him. Whether you like Kemp or not, Jones is not “his Lt Governor.”

@jeannasmialek @ZaidJilani So if you give a bunch of money to people on a per capita basis, you get lower measures of inequality along with a bunch of inflation? Whodathunkit.

[Rory B Bellows @RoryBBellows_]

@AnnieLowrey @conor64 Grok again. It’s the upper middle class they hate. They’re perfectly happy to have some poor kids.

[Rory B Bellows @RoryBBellows_]

@conor64 Or simply because people like the neighborhoods where they chose to live. They don’t want to live in a fundamental different neighborhood. And they act to prevent losing what they like.

[Rory B Bellows @RoryBBellows_]

@rinanpakkala @conor64 Community input is often about keeping more people IN GENERAL out of a neighborhood. Different people prefer different densities. You will see intense fights against subdividing SFD lots into multiple townhouses with $1mm+ prices.

[Rory B Bellows @RoryBBellows_]

@vapersian @mattyglesias And then people make claims that they are “objectively rich” and should “pay their fair share.” It’s amazing that they aren’t the ones rioting.

@pwaizer @stevemushero @dylanmatt @Noahpinion The point of wars is to win them. Fighting a war without the intent to win is too monstrous to contemplate. You don’t kill tens or hundreds of thousands of your own citizens without even hoping to win.

@shawntheverbose @peterboghossian As if puberty blockers are not extremely powerful medicine with serious, often permanent consequences.
