      JF Retweeted New York Times Opinion

      This sends off all kind of alarm bells, right? The NYT giving the Sanders campaign advice? Through a new staff writer who is to all appearances a genuine supporter?https://twitter.com/nytopinion/status/1220688705473695745 …

      "But it belongs to the bosses!" Yeah. And the Times is one of the few institutions that's... Institutional enough to own that role. Woke radicalism is starting to look uncomfortably like a coup attempt. Why not road test a retrenchment of 90s get-alongness, with health care?

          "Middle classes are not a priori engines of political liberalization," writes @davidmotadel. "They can readily become the promoters of repressive authoritarianism if they fear for the loss of influence and wealth." https://nyti.ms/2ReEUQq

          Replying to @jackfruitstaken

          The same thing is happening here that happened to Corbyn; a political "revolution" using an old left socialist as a figurehead while rapidly entrenching middle class power within the left. There's no worker militancy to speak of right now. Middle class militancy, though...?

          Replying to @Tinkzorg

          There's still an ownership class, though, and they're starting to wonder if the middle class is really serving them right now.
