Btw the democrat consultant economy have organized faster against Representative Al Green than they have against Elon
i’ll just observe that republicans are on the negative side of public opinion on DEI but yglesias insists that democrats move to the right there as well.
"The first guest on Gavin Newsom's podcast was Charlie Kirk" is more than enough for me to say "absolutely not" to any suggestion Newsom play any role in the future of the Democratic Party. People like him are the past, the failures, the ones who got us here.
Rep. Zooey Zephyr - My Wife - just gave an incredible speech against a drag ban in Montana. It was so strong that a Republican rose to speak passionately against the bill, chastising the sponsor.
The drag ban dies in Montana, flips 10+ Republican votes!
This is the power of representation.
Republican support for same-sex marriage down 31pts, from 55% to 24%, in four years according to new poll from YouGov.
Yikes.
if we're gonna be spicy, let's be spicy
virtually all americans regardless of color or gender, often act like cishet white men with their unearned confidence and arrogance when making proclamations about other cultures and parts of the world
i guess i also wish americans and westerners who aren't familiar with korea would stop with their hot takes about korean culture
be it the coup, be it labor actions, be it protests, or 4b.
y'all know nothing and yet you have such unearned confidence

I was preparing to pitch an op-ed on the nationwide protests calling for President Yoon's resignation, aiming to provide global context amid the limited international coverage.
Given the urgency, I’m sharing it now. I didn’t expect events to escalate this quickly. #SouthKorea #Democracy
that Korea does this, immediately, in the face of actual soldiers trying to impose martial law - when members of our own congress voted for a coup hours after the J6 mob stormed congress, and the coup instigator won the next election - is about as scathing an indictment of America as I’ve ever seen
@tifathehellhound.bsky.social "it's time for kim to lock in and liberate south korea"
if you're not korean kindly shut the fuck up about fantasizing about shit like this.
Stuff like this is why you need to stop giving these fools attention/dunks and just block (especially twitter newcomers). They’re annoying you and halting progress **on purpose**. They only want to be seen and are not worth your time when you can be doing better endeavors with your life & other ppl
Matthew Yglesias © @mattyglesias I'm increasingly inclined to spend time over on BlueSky because such a large share of the annoying leftists went over there and they are more fun to fight with than annoying rightists. 8:53 AM • 11/24/24

Repost this if Trans people should have Samus Arm Cannons (below, a diverse collection of implicitly trans people wielding trans pride flags and also huge scifi arm cannons)
Spoke to Nathan Grayson for his excellent piece on the state of the left-wing creator economy!

Speaker of the House is actively involved in an effort to cover up allegations (and potential evidence) that the nominee for Attorney General was involved in sex trafficking
deregulation. Gorsuch drew laughs as he briefly alluded to the election results: “Some of you may work in federal agencies and state agencies — and some of you may be about to.” He also cited the sad tale of “Peanut,” the squirrel whose untimely demise at the hands of New York state authorities became a popular meme at the end of the presidential race.
They don't do a lot of interviews. But when they do talk, you consistently get signals that Republican Supreme Court justices are constantly marinating in right-wing media. Gorsuch spontaneously brings up the Peanut the squirrel story. www.politico.com/newsletters/...
An ex-NY Times columnist and Ivy League grad interviewed a billionaire about how he, the world’s richest man, and several other billionaires helped another billionaire/Ivy League grad/real estate mogul world defeat an HBCU grad to reclaim the most powerful office in the world.
