I think the lesson from Lula is not never talk about the opposition; it's articulate a positive vision that's basically, We Can Just Do Things. That's why Mamdani-ism is so popular - voters have an intrinsic sense that their electeds have agency they're not using

Look, I know all the reasons we got here, but we really need to start seriously thinking about what we do in a world where The Markets punish whole countries for voting for decency, compassion, and fairness. We must stop pretending the capitalist machine is an objective, value neutral force.

Lewis Wade 🗃️@wadehistory.bsky.social

It's very, very telling, I think, that the markets are so concerned about the pro-democracy incumbent winning

the irony of the ramaswamy deal is as a society we don't want candidates to make those kinds of ads but unfortunately right now our society needs republicans to not learn that lesson so fast please proceed, republicans make every ad tell voters unequivocally that you are massive pieces of shit

so while this is very cool, whatsapp is a meta product and I will go ahead and predict that go zuck yerself already has them working on trying to stop it from happening again

this isn't just a problem of ai though, this is a problem of capitalism capitalism incentivizes criminality, especially in countries like america where the legal system may not even punish it, or will do so in a woefully inadequate way

subjectively, they tell on themselves

Randall Eliason@rdeliason.bsky.social

Telling headline in the WSJ: “clings to power?” He won the election by more than 3% and with more than 50% of the vote - how about just “prevails” or “wins re-election?” @wsj.com

expand the court end the shadow docket

Riki Wilchins@rikiwilchins.bsky.social

For the 1st time in US history SCOTUS has more rulings on its shadow docket -- unsigned and with no opinions -- than it has cases where it has heard oral arguments and issued signed rulings. IOW they are hiding their deliberations while stealing our democracy. www.propublica.org/article/supr...

wingnuts could never settle on one lie about obama he's a socialist he's a secret muslim he's an elitist who condescends to middle America it makes them look like incoherent children

Bill Grueskin@bgrueskin.bsky.social

Maybe things have changed, but in years past, you could tell which Financial District restaurants were the most expensive by seeing how many WSJ Editorial Page editors were dining inside

but it's also kind of hilarious that obama still triggers them into this freak behavior like they see him and go right out and take pictures of themselves doing incredibly stupid things

airbnb turns landlords into hoteliers but they still want landlord rules

Scott Lemieux@lemieuxlgm.bsky.social

The AirBnB people whining about the incredibly postmature rules changes are hilarious. Hey, here's an idea, if you don't want to pay someone to clean up after guests don't run a fucking lodging business!

ahhh, again the conflict rises inside me, between 'trump should not target his perceived political enemies' and 'but that particular target sucks shit and it is kind of funny'

I'm all for this awesome kid ending up in a much better situation but also there needs to be a training program for people who call the cops on 3 year-olds
