Some insane Reagan family lore I learned about: Reagan’s lib son Ron implied in a book that his dad had dementia during his presidency, his con adopted stepbrother Mike ripped into him over it, but Nancy sided with Ron and praised his book because she hated Mike so much.

The Red Scare trajectory since this was written in 2019 is predictable. But I met Amber soon after I joined DSA in 2008. She was a YDS leader from a working-class background with an incredibly sharp critique of capitalism. She was also a worker in warehouses and bars before she became a well-known writer and podcaster. There's nothing about her work that seems to me less anticapitalist than she was in 2008. Hard to conflate the two.



The real answer to this is that we end the conditions that make people want to BE celebrities and that make us all so hopeless that we feel the need to consume these competing fake identities in order to believe that things are getting better ie we need to kill capitalism
