    It's interesting how closely Yglesias has followed the trajectory of Walter Lippmann: Harvard, support-of-idiotic-war, progressive-to-centrist, open contempt for ordinary people & possibility of democratic discourse. There's a social type USA elite generates.pic.twitter.com/4qnCJ9oRMz

        To his credit, Lippmann ended up a pretty good critic of cold war consensus & Vietnam war, so maybe Yglesias can also redeem himself.

        This is a very weird sentiment for a self described popularist. It also worth noting how quickly that ideology was discarded as soon as saw the polling data didn’t support his desired narrative about masks on planes

        they really told on themselves with that, and the obvious implication is that they never cared for the actual substance of popularism in the first place, it was just a rhetorical device to beat the left with

        It's still very, very funny to me that for all his smug above-it-all sneering Matty had to go to anger management because he got so mad that Chapo Trap House were mean to him on twitter.
