Matt 'I paid money to hunt a law student' completely changes how I feel about the situation tbh

this is so fascinating

not having a car payment is really a life hack

Being a modern conservative must be quite stressful cos you're encouraged to be a complete psycho but apparently there are limits, only nobody tells you what they are. Like being in some dangerous prison drinking game

Folks who wanted to be in politics from a young age do this thing where they assert that it's completely normal to go work for reactionary politicians, and I think that a thing that they're not getting is that the vast majority of people don't do this at all

this is about property taxes

The beauty of American culture is that it all comes off of the great liberal traditions of multiculturalism, immigration, diversity, and government protection 💪

Nathan Goldwag 🇺🇦 In general there's this weird third rail in American political discourse where nobody mentions how Christians are the major base of support of the right wing. Eg in 2016 there was endless focus on the relatively small slice of the right that was secular/pagan

it is, i think, a problem that the right wing has so few serious people that it’s easy to dismiss them as just mob of hokey provincial car dealers and ignore the parallel centers of power that they’ve built up which now rival the liberal society it wants to compete against

calling for the most high profile politician that is publicly supporting your movement to be ousted is insane

the distribution of TikTok’s user base is really weird and I think this explains some of it

the degree to which israeli officials mishandled the gaza conflict, even from their own ethnonationalist lens, is something we will be discussing for a long time after this conflict ends.
