Anti-poverty, anti-communist, pro-union SocDem. Rolling in my grave as I said what has become of the DSA movement I created.

Modernity is, if anything, highly underrated. In basically every society ever up to the modern era literally half of our children died. Unimaginable advancement that this has fallen to just 4% globally and <.5% in developed countries.

In 1830 44.7% of American children died before their 5th birthday.

I would calmly suggest that anything before the advent of antibiotics and vaccines was really not a great time to be alive for the vast majority of people.

The NIMBYs are now declaring Montana - a state the size of Germany and Belgium combined, but with only 1.1 million people - overpopulated.

Germany and Belgium have 95 million people.

Left NIMBYs in Montana will really be like 'you believe in building housing? that pales in comparison to my strategy, firebombing city hall in protest of overpopulation' and then not firebomb city hall in protest of overpopulation

It’s because they were bullied in middle school and want to be bullies themselves nowadays, and they think he’s vulnerable then get mad when he isn’t.

If I sound a little livid here it's because the Soviet invasion of Manchuria is often presented as some kind of 'moral' alternative when it was no such thing

The Soviet way of war was absolutely brutal and merciless

It's so beyond pathetic that it take a massive amount of 'unrelenting activists' to open a single gay bar in SF because of the horrific amounts of process and anti-everything BS that people like Aaron Peskin have put SF through over the last 3 decades. SF is a such a failed city.

If the Bay Area isn't going to build housing, a reality I'm resigning myself to, we need an industrial policy to get Tech to leave the Bay Area and downgrade Cal/Stanford to commuter schools.

It generates enormous waste to locate productive industries in zero build regions.

The housing crisis is going to accelerate once the offices aren't vacant because some of those workers will bid on SF housing if they have to come here 4 days a week.

So either talk about housing or STFU

This mayoral race is so disappointing because all the candidates are mainly ignoring the real issue SF faces: it is too expensive to live here.

Office vacancies aren't important in comparison.

What you have to understand about the online left is that all of their behavior stems from how unpopular they are and how they can't ever win elections

This is why they hate 'electoralism,' it's why they hate libs so much (libs are the ones beating them in primaries), etc. etc.

Jesse Singal Not good. Cancel culture is cancel culture. Conservatives should not want censorship of others if we claim to hate when conservatives are censored. And I'm not buying the 'safety of the community blah blah blah' stuff. They use that on conservatives all the time. Let her speak.

In our podcast we mentioned this and played the video of the crazy people trying to keep a 'Zionist' out of their encampment! Not sure how we could have been clearer about this

Today, we’re celebrating the lifting of the FAR Cap in NYC!!🌇

This relic of the '60s arbitrarily limited residential density in tall Manhattan neighborhoods. Today, we’re going to look at some of the great buildings in NYC and beyond that exceed an FAR (floor area ratio) of 12.
