To be fair, members of the liberal coalition should be thrown under the bus because they are basically acting as a psyop for MAGA.

I'm not saying Newsom is my first choice for nominee, but the people of California have overwhelmingly voted for him THREE times for governor. So it's pretty silly to say the people of CA are telling anyone they won't vote for him. He's one both elections and the recall by over 20 points!

Also Klobuchar has a lot of electoral success. So I bet she knows what she's talking about

Liberal outrage didn't help us win in 2024. Not sure why anyone would think it would help in 2028.

Feels like a kind of Meno problem here.

My impression is that in contemporary analytic philosophy, Zeno's paradoxes are considered "shallow" and easily dissolved/solved. I think I read an SEP article about that and also a book on paradoxes.

Also interesting that Bergson thinks that the "beginning of metaphysics" is Zeno's statements of his paradoxes.

It's interesting spending some time reading Bergson and noticing all the parallels between him and Merleau-Ponty and their account of the perception of movement.
It's especially interesting given that throughout the Phenomenology of Perception, Merleau-Ponty has almost no kind words for Bergson.
