when your eyes are opened to class distinction you really can’t see anything else
this guy lives in Paris part of the year. he acts like his experience is somehow the norm or relevant to those of the millions of people in NYC who aren't privileged enough to also own a pied-à-terre on the gd Champs-Élysées

The reason the Democratic Party is so profoundly unpopular today is that people do not know what it stands for. There is simply no way to change this by saying, “We will ask you all what you liked yesterday, and do that tomorrow.”

Every bad thing people say about Twitter is true but this place is much worse
I'm interested in what you have to say. I don't agree with your priorities 100 percent.
I won't use Twitter, it's full of the worst propaganda and hate you can find in America and owned by someone that promotes and celebrates that. I wish more non-left wing voices were here.

One thing I wish people understood about authoritarianism is life often looks more or less the same. Troops aren’t marching down the street every day; people go to restaurants, have their office jobs. But everyone knows that stepping out of line, even slightly, can derail your life with no recourse

Not a profound or nuanced observation, obviously, but I am really struggling with how fucking evil everything is every day. Everything I love and admire about this stupid and amazing country just constantly getting vandalized and brutalized by people who hate all those things. Not digging it.
