Beautiful day to get incredibly bike-pilled

I love America, but for slightly more esoteric center-left technocrat reasons than everyone else posting about it

[Bad Fredo @TokenFredo]

@gjd055205551076 The subtle way you point out how obvious this is is really impressive

[Bad Fredo @TokenFredo]

I guarantee you that the median voter thinks "Defund the police" means "We shouldn't have police or enforce laws". I could find you dedicated Dem voters that think that's what that means, imagine the swing voters

[JodiJacobson 🇺🇦 🩸🦷 @jljacobson]

Either Neera is not as smart as she’s touted to be or purposefully obtuse. “Defunding the police” was and IS about using part of the enormous amount we dedicate to policing to proven efforts to make communities safer for EVERYONE.

But NT uses lies against a Dem candidate.

[Kelsey Piper @KelseyTuoc]

If I were a conservative woman I think it would really give me pause that so many conservative men so openly despise women and believe they are not morally or intellectually the equals of men and should not be considered on their merits for positions of power.

Abundance doesn't mean "centrism"

Abundance vs. degrowth is perpendicular to left vs right!

Zohran & Nithya: Abundance Left
NJR & Kate Willett: Degrowth Left

Auchincloss: Abundance mod
Karen Bass: Degrowth mod

MT legislature: Abundance Right
NY Assembly: Degrowth Right

[Ta-Nehisi Quotes @steady_drumbeat]

Tough on crime socialism would get insane margins at the polls. I’m not even talking about whether it’s a good idea. The average American wants a free F150 and for thieves to be flogged on YouTube Live.

@cozyheard @cannibalilies This is only really clear if you've ever had a positive interaction with anyone

Yeah, we lost when our ideas were adopted by leftists, particularly those in power with the ability to affect change. We're so owned. Please don't take any more of our ideas

[Cole Sandick🌹🇵🇸🇺🇦🇸🇩 @ColeSandick]

Hot take: Abundance is talked about less now because it’s been co-opted by the left in the context of Zohran, our embrace of YIMBYism and renewed focus on public sector efficiency and state capacity. The project is thus no longer useful to elites as a weapon against the left.

[daeveningglow @InlandCaGuy]

Umm, sure thing, I guess we YIMBYS will have to admit we failed in our core goal of destroying the left and take the "L" in how the Left has "co-opted" our views by starting to actually advocate for them in real life, lol. I feel terrible about how it's all played out.

Huge day for Napoli fans

[Bad Fredo @TokenFredo]

@nazzobetweeting @LinkofSunshine You can't even say "Crime is bad" in this tongue-in-cheek way without conservatives in the quote tweets being like "You have to explain to liberals that crime is bad, they're so dumb" because they lack reading comprehension. Even this conversation makes them dig their heels

[Bad Fredo @TokenFredo]

@cavsfan1021 @steady_drumbeat Do you have specific policies in mind, or is this just a matter of some people called X supply side economics and other people called Y that, and so they must be the same?

[Ta-Nehisi Quotes @steady_drumbeat]

If only Democrats would come up with an affirmative ambitious, nationwide counter-proposal which engages with their past failure to bring down housing costs. Leftists would probably love that.

Kaitlyn’s mom is in town so we have to go to Catholic Mass and there is one like 3-4 minute walk from my place. Mass was 36 minutes all in. There and back to my door within 50 minutes. Amazing. Thank you modern liberal Catholics.

Do people in Japan like this, or is this just done to impress American tourists with certain ideas about Japanese culture?

@politicalmath @JeremiahDJohns If there were a segment of people I identified as both well-informed, aligned with morals I view as good, and correctly and soberly identifying true facts, I would simply join that segment instead of begrudgingly conceding them as an exception to my ire

[Jerusalem @JerusalemDemsas]

1) This isn’t true! USAID was seen as a massive W for the US with libs even crediting Bush for PEPFAR

2) it’s dumb to form your views by looking for hypocrisy in other people’s. If someone was wrong before and right now that shouldn’t change whether you think the underlying arguments are good or bad. at most you can decide someone is untrustworthy
