let's make sure one or two cities and states fall apart fast so the rest don't have to elect mandani!

I know this intestinal tapeworm will do his best to make it happen. All the more reason to go around the liberals and go hard. Arnaud Bertrand seems decent but he has a lot of sketchy people in his pro-china orbit.

A bit of tangent, but I've always hated the framing of "small/less government" vs "big/more government". As if "amount of government" is what determines the system it uses or whose interests it serves.

That's because it's truly meaningless, a phrase in a long list of trite talking points trotted out by our ruling class to justify shitty policy and the entire political & economic system.

a bigger structure has more opportunity for graft and embezzlement but it's a very weak heuristic.

It makes sense that you would land at liberal accelerationism if you truly completely believe anticommunist propaganda while also being a true believing liberal. Show people the failure of socialism and they will see for themselves and come crawling back!

Completely lost in the sauce.

Cry more, whoever the fuck you are.

"most contrarian" more like "most incoherent"

he describes how NYC has $2 trillion in student loan debt and that the current system has failed them

what's that current system? oh? capitalism? it's a failure huh? weird how you're warning against the "failures of socialism" then, fuckass

Even accepting his premise... US politics isn't exactly known for learning from failure and trying something new.
