Obviously I’m in favor of the conclusion, but Ezra Klein discovering in 2026 that liberalism could use some virtues and a vision of the common good is hilarious to me. Probably a bellwether of normie opinion, but shockingly (though I guess unsurprisingly) late to the game.

I’ve never taken a dime from any billionaire and Eoin Higgins wrote a book that calls me “owned” and “bought” ON THE COVER. I’m obligated to sue him and Hachette books in this situation. Absolutely outrageous

I think it's pretty disgraceful that Matt Taibbi is suing one of his critics. Even if you disagree with Eoin's book's conclusion that Taibbi has sold out, it should be legal to make that criticism and Taibbi should respond by rebutting the claim not running to the courts.

*sigh* this is pure slop. Marx wrote in "Private Property and Communism" (1844 Manuscripts) that an individual and community aren't fundamentally opposed, but rather an individual can only manifest their capacities through their community and the community through individuals.

It’s Marx’ birthday today. Here’s my biggest realisation about him: Marx’s main foe was NOT capitalism; it was individualism. Already from his young Hegelian days, Marx was convinced than man has to live (i.e PRODUCE) for the group. It’s what he later described as ‘species being’. He then, brilliantly, identified that capitalism and individualism MUST go hand in hand. THIS is why he hated capitalism. Everything else (LTV etc) was a rationalisation. This is why ‘On the Jewish Question’ is key. Not because of the antisemitism controversy. But because of the capitalism<—>individualism formulation. That’s why Marx damns individual (‘civil’) rights, and, ESPECIALLY, property rights. Because they create this protective bubble, inside which the ‘egoistic’ man can flourish, and thus they are bad. From there, Marx will jump on different vehicles to attack capitalism. For one period it’s ‘alienation’, for another it’s his ‘exploitation theory’, the 'falling rate of profit' etc. All are rationalisations for a conclusion he had drawn from his early Hegelian youth: capitalism = individualism = bad. PS: funny how Marx saw what conservatives and many liberals/libertarians decline to see, i.e. that capitalism and individualism will either stand, or fall, together. In that way, he’s a better thinker than many on our side. In other words: to attack Marxism, one HAS to defend individualism.

Obama will be remembered as the American Gorbachev, the charismatic, well-intentioned leader feted by the world but who, by failing to address crisis levels of inequality, elite impunity and corruption, hastened US national decline.

What is the #1 thing Obama will be remembered for?

The other day I was watching Instagram reels of these two kids, like, young teenagers, covering old Korn and Slipknot songs. Seems to me like those bands are just popular as they’ve ever been, especially among younger people
Trev🥀@HereticPrevails

Whats with people not liking/respecting Slipknot and Korn anymore? I grew up on that stuff and they paved a way for so many modern bands. I know so many people who openly talk shit about them. Its just crazy to me.
