The decision to align not with the successful social democratic parties that are currently governing Sweden and Finland but with the fringier Left Party does not bode well for the whole DSA project. https://t.co/PzhNT6WgkE

DSA extends our solidarity to comrades in Sweden and Finland faced with a coordinated attack on their countries' neutrality. The leader of the Left Party of Sweden (@vansterpartiet) outlines their opposition:
"The Left Party has chosen, we say no to NATO."

My naive Bayesian argument that the leaker was probably from the conservative camp is that 2/3rds of the justices are conservative.
Add to that the conservative camp wants to talk a lot about the leak but doesn’t seem that interested in finding the leaker. https://t.co/LBM3zd5pY6

...I am still surprised by Chief Justice Roberts not asking in the FBI, which has the expertise in computer and forensic investigations. It is institutionally vital that this person be found to try to restore the culture described by Justice Thomas.

But this stuff is actually quite a huge 'W' for the neighborhood's YIMBYs. They succeeded in generating massive support for housing there, and now the North Berkeley NIMBYs who originally only wanted 2 story housing have now found themselves defending 7 stories. They're losing.

my hot take is that it's literally imperialist (and incredibly patronizing) for an american organization like DSA to tell the people of finland and sweden that they're wrong for wanting to be protected from potential russian agression

Someone tell me why competing on a level playing field against totalitarian countries is good or desirable.
Screw level playing fields, I want to run up the score.

@Noahpinion Interesting because admitting that you need Chinese talent is admitting that you can't compete on a level playing field with them. Which is basically the story of the USA. A mediocre country that succeeds due to immigration from around the world. It can't stand on its own.

Im increasingly in favor of showing this mass shooting footage. Images are power. Fox News radicalized wide swaths of America by purposely replaying riot pornography which led to mass radicalization. Constantly adding mosaics to right-wing violence shields the public from reality

There's a reason the Holocaust carries such a legacy stretching even till today while similar genocides like that committed by Turkey have been forgotten. One had enough film that has been immortalized in the minds of an entire generation and the other didn't.
