My read is that American leftism specifically has been unwilling to reckon directly with its unpopularity and instead falls into a cargo cult form of Leninism, preoccupied with building a “pure” vanguard to lead the inevitable awakening of the proletariat.
I find the @whstancil.bsky.social backlash strangely fascinating.
At its core it seems to be a desperate effort by folks further to the left to avoid having a liberal (with communication skills) become the face of their movement.
But, to be honest, winning was always going to require that.

Somewhat ironically, this is a problem that both some leftist and populist-rightist movements share: their ideology *requires* them to believe that they are the authentic voice of The People and so they are ideologically constrained from recognizing that their ideas are not, in fact, popular.

It's axiomatic but bears repeating: the survival of American democracy depends on a majority of Americans not wanting authoritarianism.

At a lecture I attended with our state historian on Monday, he observed that Texas' decision to exterminate the entire Comanche nation in the most bloody act of genocide in North America during the 19th century and then lie about it was the defining event of Texas culture. An accurate assessment.

It's pretty simple, you can care about preserving free curbside parking or you can care about housing costs, homelessness and climate change.

Fun fact: in 2003 the midsized regional papers (think the Chicago Tribune, Dallas Morning News) also had overseas bureaus with permanent staff abroad
Good example of what an institution the size of WaPo can do that is very difficult to replace. Local, worker-owned publications & nonprofits do excellent accountability work but I don’t imagine any could set up an ME bureau, with staff across the region, logistics, legal and security support, etc

one little hill i'll die on is approximately a million easily-led, chin-stroking centrist idiots were reading JD Vance's explainer of the "white working class" when they should've been reading Joe Bageant's instead
When Trump won in 2016 we all wanted to figure out the beleaguered white man and their many grievances. So we all sat down and read Hillbilly Elegy and then that dude became Vice President and laughed about a woman's death, now hopefully you all figured these guys out.

There's a weird amount of Newsom glazing that comes from people who are unfamiliar with California politics and I can assure you that a hypothetical President Newsom would be the American Keir Starmer
Gavin Newsom is enough of a charmless dolt without the righteous hatred in his heart that he doesn't have much hope of surviving a primary. He'll eat shit in a debate with some mealy-mouthed bullshit that misreads the public hatred of the right and that's how we get someone better.
