It’s like Portugal’s leading conservatives have read the massive amount of political science research that shows cooperating with or mimicking the ultra-right empowers the ultra-right and destroys the conservatives.
🚨🚨Striking but welcome development in Portugese politics: To stop the explosive growth of the ultranationalist #Chega party, Portugal’s leading conservatives are doing the previously unthinkable: endorsing the center-left candidate for president. 🧵

This, along with the seizure of ballots and voting data, is another massive red flag for Americans: This is the kind of thing authoritarians say and do when they are preparing to rig the vote.
They are preparing to steal your vote, and you have to take action now to stop them.

Olen kohta 20 vuotta sanonut, että Suomessa yrittämisen ongelma on siinä, että meillä ei tueta tarpeeksi yrittäjiä, kun lähes kaikki tuet ja helpotukset valuvat onnistujille.
Jotka eivät enää tukia tarvitsisi.

Jep. Tiedän tämän hyvin. Itsekin saattaisin yrittää, jos ei olisi niin suurta riskiä että se tuhoaisi talouden (ja elämän) lopullisesti.

Valtiovarainministeri Purra esitti A-studiossa, että edellinen Marinin hallituskausi olisi ollut parempi aika sopeuttaa, kun talous kasvoi. Jos silloin olisi sopeutettu Orpon hallituksen keinoilla, kasvua tuskin olisi nähty silloinkaan. 🫠

Tänään taas taloustieteilijät hehkuttamassa, että "nyt havaittu työttömyys on hyvä asia". Siinä on yhteiskunnallinen tulkinta vahvasti värittynyt. Ja sitten rasistit kertomassa, että työttömyys on maahanmuuton syytä -- taloustieteilijöiden petaamana.
