Umair Haque

these days, I mostly feel undone. I guess. not in a bad way. I like the way my life turned out, kind of. but I don't feel like I fit in the world anymore and maybe never did and fuck do I not want to in this one. so sort of like a thread without a spool.

i miss those days, it was nice when liberals played make believe and pretended fascists were entirely theoretical entities and the world would be just fine forever

do you guys remember when the return of fascism was happening but if you said it all the nice and fine and polite liberal bros would turn into like frankenstein creatures and howl THAT IS NEVER GONNA HAPPEN YOU ARE STUPID AND DUMB

there goes your life savings

i had a cupcake

Growth and prosperity don’t come from Gestapos, authoritarian edicts, ugliness, hate, stupidity, spite, vendettas. They come from science, literature, truth, justice, freedom, all the pillars of modernity.

Why Totalitarianism Rises (And How Not To Let It) Or, When Good People Try So Hard to be Good They End Up Letting Bad Flourish

From 2016: “Because the potential harm is so great, assuming someone is a monster when they sound, feel, and act like one is a sounder precautionary practice than assuming that they are not.”

Trump Just Nuked the Economy, or, America is a Submerging Market Now Happy Liberation Day! OK, sorry, that was a bad joke. Don’t kill me. Gather ‘round, gang. We’ve got a lot to talk about. I’m going to try to teach you what “Liberation Day” means. The takeaway for me...

“Liberation Day” will go down in history, but for all the wrong reasons. America now is not a society that the world can place much trust in.

“It’s going to sound crazy, because it is. It’s going to appear delusional, because it is. This isn’t economics, this is the equivalent of anti-vaxxing for economics”

This isn’t some kind of academic exercise anymore. This is your life. One Big Lie that Americans have been taught is that economics and politics can somehow be divorced. They can’t. It’s not a coincidence that autocracies have stagnant, declining, shrinking economies. www.theissue.io/the-damage-f/

Have you heard of “Liberation Day” yet? That’s in about two weeks. That’s the day when the orange menace and his crew are going to announce more tariffs, but that’s a poor way to to put it. Trillions in tariffs on the whole world.

“You wouldn’t be tanking the economy if you cared about getting re-elected. Tanking the economy this hard, this fast, says pretty clearly: we don’t think there’s going to be another round of people choosing their leaders, because if we did, would we really do all this?”

NASA was the epitome of America. Rocket scientists. Cowboy astronauts. The fact that it is in shambles speaks to the current state of America as a whole.

NASA Eliminates Chief Scientist and Other Jobs at Its Headquarters About 19 positions will be cut, including those in offices focused on technology policy and diversity, equity and inclusion.

I'm pretty sure "NASA doesn't get to have a CHIEF SCIENTIST anymore" is like code red levels of social collapse, who needs science

spoiler alert, you're not, you're supposed to get trapped, go broke, and then die

As Umair says, a president who is not concerned about crashing the economy is obviously not concerned about getting reelected.

it's terrifying to think of the consequences of this on so many levels

probably, depends on everyone's situation, really if u wanna talk about this kinda thing, just book a session with me, that's why so many people asked me and finally I said yes and we're doing them <3

forget about the world melting down, HERE'S SNOWY

ahahahgg *cries

An American President who seems to be delighted about crashing the economy. The American economy, but hardly just that. The Canadian economy. The Mexican economy. Which is the entire North American economy. Then the European economy. And then the world.
