  • I’m actually referring to Democrats and their constant insistence that by getting in a good verbal jab, or some other performative display of resistance, that they’ve “done” anything.

    These debate moments and the media reaction to them is a perfect example of what I’m talking about. Performative resistance is all we get from Democrats while they cede materially on all fronts.





  • Meh. A bad dude died. The bad dude’s actions resulted on the order of at least >1 death/ day. If not for their death, we couldn’t be having this broader conversation on what we can do to “solve” the billionaire problem. Even if it involves the sacrifice of one innocent person, its probably all been worth it, and will continue to be if the pattern continues.

    losing two peoples < losing many people + starting a broader movement

    Its a net gain regardless.
