Bottom line, Denmark has attained more self-awareness than the USSR or the U.S. It maintained capitalism but shifted the collective consciousness & culture away from the competition & elitism of capitalism. (See Jante Law). It is miles away from us. And miles away from socialism. A middle path.

None of this would be happening if we had MORE Democrats to begin with. The solution to our problem is not FEWER Democrats. It's giving them a 60-vote threshold & a blue president so that they can pass critical legislation that rights this doomed ship. That's our ONLY way out of this mess. 🧵

ACA was a hook, they didn't back progressive candidates bc if the progressive loses no penalty for them, if won they get unearned credit and then back to business as usual making corporate backers happy. It's the current Democrat leadership brand, we're on our own if we want progressive action.

With the GOP yet again thinking they’re slurring Dems by calling them “Socialists!” I thought this speech by President Franklin Delano Roosevelt to the Gridiron Club Dinner, December 14, 1935, would be enlightening—and inspiring. (Note: light edits for space). A long 🧵, but, I think, worth it.

Trump’s threatening #Brazil over #BRICS, Roberts says trans rights aren’t really rights, and #Grok went full fascist before Elon apologized. Plus: #tariffs, tantrums, and a #SCOTUS ruling so dumb it might be contagious. Grab your mug of Locust Economics and read on. open.substack.com/pub/marygedd...
