I hope your right but my worry is that the media landscape is not set up in a way to actually punish them for that.

Fucking over Iowa farmers with Tariffs did not matter last time. Unless they ban abortion nation wide I think they are going to be mostly fine

Just finished reading this. It's quite good but it's hard to fully appreciate though without the context her other works on emotions. 10/10 title name though

Love how Adorno is seen by the right as the guy who invented wokeness and then when you read him it's just some German boomer writing about how music written by black people is not real art

Loved this video! Always blown away by the volume you are able to read. 1-2 books a month is my limit.
