You actually don't have to base all your politics around being afraid of what Republicans might do or say. They're going to do and say those things either way so you might as well try to get health care

i love how centrists continue to do this thing where they say “if DSA becomes more front and center in the party, republicans will run on that!” as if the right doesn’t just say absolutely anything on and run on shit like peanut the squirrel or litterboxes in school bathrooms

1/ A longtime Wired editor just wrote a mush-brained essay about how he totally missed the political rot of Silicon Valley (& still doesn't get it). But in the late 1990s, a Wired journalist warned of a toxic ideology bubbling up from tech. Paulina Borsook has largely been erased. Let's change that

"66 per cent in western Victoria indicating their support for Australia shifting to renewable energy" This isn't a surprise to those of us out here. Despite this, almost every ABC article on the issue centres the minority who oppose the transition and distorts the reality on the ground.

I don't recall any previous transformative technologies that had to be sold to the public so hard. No one in 1999 was going, "Guys. Cell phone? It's coming, whether we like it or not. I think it's important, FOR WOMEN ESPECIALLY, to learn about cell phone. So that we're not left behind!!"
