The dialectical progeny of Karl Marx and Antonio Gramsci, I reject common sense for good sense. We live in a time of monsters, as the old gives way to the new. Don't be afraid of the monsters.

A minority of Americans voted for Trump for different reasons.

Musk added a majority in 7 swing states.

Trump won.

Fascists voted for Trump, but not all Trumpers are fascist.

The Constitution was not the goal; it was the start of enabling a "more perfect union." Without collective efforts to build that "more perfect union" and defend it against union busters, it's just a long memo.

Early voting is underway for Prop 50 in California.

I urge anyone in the state to vote yes.

This isn’t a race to the bottom. It’s a means of avoiding the bottom. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/what-blue-states-should-do-when-red
