    I just took a DNA test, turns out I’m 100% ’s biggest fan.

    I interviewed Michael Lind about The New Class War, and how it might end. (Hint: with an actual war.)

    one of the quirks of culturally conservative priors is you have a stronger bias to interpret things as "group that has gotten a little more liberal on this issue vs group that has gotten *a lot* more liberal on this issue". ...but it's probably correct in this specific case?

    For people who were alive and engaged then, am I correct to think a Republican national politician would not be caught dead running an ad like this in the 90's?

    Coming MoveOn dot org headline: "John Podesta reveals private conversation in which Bernie affirmed belief in the two genders" Followed by 10 point bump in national polls.

    I mean yeah, maintaining the big market share computer OS is cool. But is it worth collecting checks off each installation? Is it worth the amount of cash this man made? Seems way more up in the air to me than Amazon, Tesla, or SpaceX

    Seriously though, Bezos has meaningfully alerted how everyday people purchase goods and is shoving every profit into more R&D. Musk runs a promising electric vehicle company collecting machine learning days for automated cars. Does anyone seriously think Windows was that good??

    I was explaining to a friend that Musk and Bezos, while common boogymen for lefty critiques, are pretty much the opposite of billionaires just sitting around on their cash. Honestly Bill Gates might be a better target considering he got rich off licensing software...

    So why don't I adopt the State Capacity Libertarian label? Because it's an oxymoron. To the extent SCL is focused on understanding the conditions of institutional decline and renaissance, it's speaking the language of conservatism. And there's nothing at all wrong with that. 😁

    For the record, I argued to a skeptic last night that Bernie probably has majority odds in a general vs. Trump. I am not arguing Bernie is a super weak candidate, I just think you need to realize that he only encountered the oppo files of a candidate who wanted his voters later.

    Inconsistency in some left-wing rhetoric: on the one hand, Fox News is a relentless propaganda arm of the American right, coordinating messaging with incredible precision. On the other hand, there are zero drawbacks to running a socialist, news can't get any more hostile to him.

    You, a pleb: lib journos use "white men" as an insult, that's mean :( Me, an intellectual: Dismissing this podcast's fans as white men is factually incorrect but also cliche among a high-educated social mileau that only grasps masculinity as an ill to be diagnosed and treated.

    Bernie is not my candidate but it seems obvious to me that he was right to take the Joe Rogan endorsement. One premise of his campaign is that he can win some number of alienated men with reactionary social views to the left, and this is proof of concept.

    This is an excellent thread on how a "best case" scenario of nuclear use would still overwhelmingly alter strategic thought, might also be applicable to discourse about cultural norms, one time technology shocks, etc.
