Michael Kinsley's critique of the lede of the New Yorker's corn article lives in my head
The June 18 New Yorker has an article about corn. It's the first in what appears to be a series, no less, discussing the major grains. What about corn? Who knows? Only the New Yorker would have the lofty disdain for its readers to expect them to plow through 22,000 words about corn (warning: only an estimate; the TNR fact checkers are still counting) without giving them the slightest hint why. Here is how it starts (after a short introductory poem): When the New England farmer and botanist Edward Sturte-vant retired, in 1887, as head of the New York Agricultural Experiment Station, in Geneva, he left behind a bulky manuscript that was published in 1919, twenty-one years after his death, as "Sturtevant's Notes on Edible Plants." Dr. Sturte-vant, who was also a graduate of the Harvard Medical School but never practiced medicine, had scoured the world's botanical literature for mentions of all the plants that human beings were known to have eaten (he did not count tree bark, which in times of famine was often one of them), and had come up with, among more than three hundred thousand known plant species, two thousand eight hundred and ninety-seven edibles. (Latter-day scientists believe he may have missed as many more.) But, of all these, only a hundred and fifty or so have ever been widely enough consumed to figure in commerce, and of those a mere handful have been of any real consequence. Now, there are some facts for you. No doubt every single one of them has been checked. You stand in awe as they tumble toward you, magnificently irrelevant, surrounded by mighty commas, mere numbers swollen into giant phrases ("two thousand eight hundred and ninety-seven"), all finally crashing over you with the bravura announcement that nothing you have just read is "of any real consequence." How true this is! From the end of the paragraph, you gaze back on receding vistas of inconsequence, as far as the eye can see. Even supposing we would like a bit more information about corn, and even supposing we might be relieved to know how many other plants, edible and otherwise, are not going to be discussed in this article, why are we being told about a man whose count apparently was off by half? Even supposing we need to know about Dr. Sturtevant's book, when it was published, and when the good doctor died, why do we need to know when he retired? Even-stretching it-supposing that we need to know that this gentleman "was also a graduate of the Harvard Medical School," why, oh why, do we have to learn that he "never practiced medicine"? As for the business about tree bark, that has just got to be conscious self-parody.

Ces savants historiens, ecrivains, experts, sachants qui ont étudié le fascisme/nazisme et leurs fans, qui font preuve d'une telle inconséquence qu'on pourrait leur faire remonter le temps avec tout leur savoir qu'ils arriveraient

je n'ai pas à m'excuser de quoi que ce soit, et n'ai en rien "agi avec inconséquence"
Le "fun fact" (c'est de l'ironie évidemment) à mes yeux c'est ce comportement fascinant, de foules de gens qui débarquent, demandent des comptes, font des injonctions, comme vous le faites en ce moment même.

Protip : tout parti électoraliste est de droite.

En tout cas, c'est comme ça que je survie à leur inconséquence.

Ensuite je considère toujours la moins pire des options viables, ce qui m'en fait "préférer" certaines.

Mais à par tenter de tanker pour les autres, j'ai zéro espoir. Juste la rage.

Ça ne vous empêche pas de fanfaronner à base de "fun fact" et de "raison inconnue" alors que la raison est parfaitement connue et que ceci n'a rien de fun. Les excuses et admettre qu'on a agi avec inconséquence par ignorance, ça fait pas de vous quelqu'un de faible hein, au contraire.

De plus en plus difficile pour moi d'accorder le moindre crédit à Yórgos Lánthimos qui me prouve une nouvelle fois avec Bugonia sa stupidité, sa pauvreté en tant que metteur en scène et son inconséquence politique totale. On pourrait me dire qu'il ne raconte rien de précis, que c'est une farce et...

Quelle inconséquence...
Trump EXIGE que « nous levions nos obstacles »…
Et ce n’est pas pour notre bien!
Abandonner notre ligne de défense réglementaire sur la tech et l’IA, c’est signer l’arrêt de mort de notre souveraineté 🇪🇺 face aux géants US et chinois.

Des réflexions de @antipatriarcame.bsky.social très justes sur ce qu'est et ce que ne devrait pas être l'antipunitivisme, à écouter et faire écouter aussi sous forme de pastille video par ici www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q1e_...
(et, perso, je préfère le terme inconséquence à irresponsable)

Avec le recul, le terme "impunité" dans le titre aurait dû être remplacé par "irresponsabilité réhabilitatrice" ou "inconséquence réhabilitatrice". Idéalement l'inverse de "accountability", mais ça se traduit mal. Et c'était y a déjà plus de 2 ans...

the mobilization of millions for a parade still takes considerable infrastructure and planning. the inconsequence of the demonstration is not the same thing as the inconsequence that it could be organized at all. that’s millions of people with only nascent radical awareness. that makes it *harder*!

Nothing from Mischa today
Credit where it's due: rallying 10 million people is an incredible organizational achievement. But if those 10 million people march, make their grievances known and Trump ignores them all the same, what was actually accomplished? Nothing. You've proven that you can mobilize masses to express discontent. Great. The ruling class already knows people are discontent. They don't care. The last 'No Kings' protest ended in inconsequence because there was no material leverage. No economic disruption. No cost for ignoring the workers; just symbolic expression that changes and challenges nothing. When we critique "nonviolent" liberal protest, we're not necessarily saying grab guns or whatever. We're saying: your protest needs consequences. If they ignore you, what happens? There has to be a cost. But consider this: those same 10 million people organizing mutual aid, community defence and withholding their labor would cripple the economy in hours. That's the power of organized labor; that's showing the bourgeoisie how fragile their position actually is - by threatening material consequences where it *actually* hurts: profit. Want to truly make your demands heard and met? Don't march. Strike. Let them try to run the country without workers' consent.

Alors que Trump brille par son inconséquence depuis son retour à la Maison Blanche et que la bourse étasunienne s'effondre, @politis.fr et @regards.bsky.social consacrent leur dossier de la semaine au nouvel ordre trumpien ⤵️
C’est qui qui commande ?
Les marchés financiers et les bourses ont fait caler Trump. Quelle sera l’ampleur de la reculade ? Cela offre surtout un répit pour lui faire face et s’opposer à son impérialisme agressif.

Le problème c’est que là, non, il dit la vérité.
On est dans une situation telle qu’il va falloir effectivement couper et pas à dose homéopathique dans les dépenses publiques.
Notre inconséquence c’est qu’on a tjs repoussé l’échéance. Jusqu’à maintenant

That community is what keeps me alive and happy. That community is full of people and critters that care about me. They will protect me. Your politics will not.

Your coalition-building rejection of so-called "purity tests" is a quiet admittance that you see us as expendable (pic related):
Quote from Matt Chandronait (@talkingorange.bsky.social): "This is mostly where I’m at. The ability of “the left” to eat itself into total inconsequence on the basis of single-issue purity tests is a constant source of frustration. Particularly since the propagandists know this and use it tactically to murder emerging liberal-left coalitions." If you're reading this, Matt, my life is not a purity test. Go fuck yourself.

Vous avez une excuse ou plusieurs. Celle de votre inconséquence à traiter quelqu'un de collaborateur, celle de votre inaction face à ceux qui font, celle de votre sectarisme qui vous pousse à hair tous ceux qui ne suivent pas la doctrine du gourou. Certains sont partis, on se demande pourquoi 🤔
