Because he's a moron who can't get his neckbearded head around the concept that all these elections are connected, because humanity is connected, which also means -- newsflash -- that these far-right movements are all connected? That beating them one place creates momentum for elsewhere? JFC.

He's like all libertarians in thinking that caring about anything is for losers. Being a particularly obtuse robot is easy when you've been pampered your entire life and have nothing at stake between your 1 overseas house and your parents' 3.

It’s so weird! I’m not on that app anymore, so I don’t know if he attempted to explain his reasoning, but that’s my question, what is the thought process? How is it not healthy, Yglesias? Show your work on how it’s bad for democracy for people in democratic nations to care about other democracies.
