If they serve in the US military I don’t see why there can’t be a path to citizenship

America’s political landscape is more complicated than it used to be. Here’s my attempt to depict what I see as the seven broad camps today. Most people I know fall pretty cleanly into one of these circles (each of which has some common ground with the two adjacent circles). Some additional points: - The top two circles (green/yellow) are concerned first and foremost with the rise of illiberalism—disregard for the constitution, cancel culture, mob behavior, political violence. They see liberal vs illiberal as more critical right now than left vs right. In 2020, they agreed that wokeness was bad but today they’re divided on whether Trump or Harris/Biden are the lesser of two evils. - For the middle two circles (blue/red), left vs right is the main thing. They’re not illiberal themselves but tend to focus on illiberalism from the other side while ignoring or condoning illiberalism from their own team. Both skew older and are the main consumers of traditional media, whether it be cable news or newspapers. - The two lower circles (pink/orange) share a strong sense of grievance, place utmost importance on identity, tend to view identity groups (race, religion, sex, etc.) as monoliths, and are prone to believing conspiracy theories that fit with their worldview. Both skew younger, with woke skewing feminine and upper class and groyper skewing masculine and lower class. Both use revolutionary rhetoric, seeing the establishment as rotten to the core, and readily employ illiberal tactics under the belief that desperate times call for desperate measures. Thoughts?

Thinking of putting my different activities in separate accounts

If this were decided, I still don't think I'd partake. Even if I'm aware that it's technically ok, I'd still want some sensory distinction. The current meat substitutes have come a long way, but they're still different enough to distinguish, and that's a good thing.

There's certainly valid criticism of the way ICE is handling their operations, but it's hard to be sympathetic towards the other side when this is how the protesters act.

Headlines like these give me such a sense of superiority, all 100% deserved of course.

@EurgerKingWitAE I have it on a hotkey. It's good grammar.

@artmalkin @SenRickScott @GOP It is a very large tent

@SenRickScott You speak about antisemitism but you belong to the @GOP, which opposes the separation of Church and State and seeks to impose a Christofascist theocracy.

The increase in hatred and antisemitism toward Jews is extremely alarming. I’m devastated to learn of the attack at the Chabad Lubavitch World Headquarters in NY. We all must clearly and loudly condemn this evil and stand with our nation’s Jewish community during this unimaginable time.

It is kind of funny that Minnesota is a battle between two men who look like lesbians

I prefer the original. It was more genuine.

@az_morlock @davidharsanyi Only the fringes ask whether or not the market always clears. The real question is how often markets fail to clear, and the proper response to that. Even Friedman had instances where he advocated some government intervention.

@davidharsanyi This is such a frustrating dynamic. The market wins....always...... yet people's gut is that "someone" should be in charge. "I, Pencil" needs to be required national reading annually from K-16

No one is in charge. That's why they're cheap.

I said “all ice agents are faggots” and everyone at dinner got mad at me. You can’t fucking win with liberals seriously.
