People will die, and are currently dying, because RFK was granted one of the most powerful megaphones in the country. Two people who could have thrown barriers in front of his climb decided not to; there's a sex scandal here but it is not the biggest scandal.

i don't get how people watched zohran's campaign and got the impression that he was anything but a massive YIMBY
I mostly stay off twitter but I occasionally go back because all the left NIMBYs stayed. The complete copefest going on over Mamdani putting YIMBYs on his housing transition team has been chicken noodle soup for the soul.

um... what?
I personally find Chi way better than Zohran, and Zohran is Muslim, which is not good too (which completely unfair but still a thing). I would agree though - it was longshot, I just don’t think it was that of long shot :)

I’m sorry, but a lot of this is on flimsy evidence for some really strong claims. It reads very much like a conspiracy theory

I think this is an underrated explanation for why people are Like This. They have literally traumatized themselves by watching genocide footage over and over again.
I am not denying their existence but they are crazy weirdos whose brains have been ruined by watching Gaza genocide footage and think that 'Zionists are the same as Nazis' is an uncontroversial statement

we are an affluent nation and the side effect of this is that what we have previously believed is high income is not actually high income anymore
They were better off than they were at the beginning of the Biden administration. But they didn't feel well off, and that was enough.
By the way, as I've been saying for a while, this argument confirms my claim that $100,000/yr is not a high income anymore.

people don't like feeling and/or actually making less money and it turns out it does not matter if they were making 200k or half that - money lost is still money lost. this is, alas, the natural endpoint of consumerist culture.
many on the U.S. left go too far with arguing that everyone in the country is basically on the brink of starvation, and ALSO many wonk-types like myself go too far with “the data says it’s irrational to feel bad about the economy, so people should obviously just stop feeling bad”
This is very interesting (and yeah, I also had an initial “oh come on, that’s nuts” reaction to the first part of this article, but as I read on, I realized he was making some pretty compelling points)

since again, the main point of interest here imo isn’t “SHOULD American voters rationally feel bad about the economy,” we’re dealing with the question of “many American voters HAVE felt bad about the economy for quite a while, and why is that”
