Whats the other wing then Lindsey?

Good interview with @sunraysunray.bsky.social on practical socialism. For @Vox www.vox.com/politics/467...

Some plane reading. Seemed right for HM

Heading to Historical Materialism to present on G.A Cohen

In all my years Ive learned nothing gets women to like you more than smugly shaming them for their opinions

I agree

Many are saying Michael Walzer’s The Struggle for a Decent Politics also contains a valuable and typically elegant primer on the liberal socialist tradition! www.liberalcurrents.com/understandin...

go to the beach? need the Coast Guard? flush the toilet? ALL DEMOCRATIC SOCIALISM

My piece on meritocracy for @liberalcurrents.com

"It would take immense social engineering for the meritocrat to even partially and very imperfectly impose and then constantly reimpose their preferred pattern of merit." www.liberalcurrents.com/the-utopiani...

You may say I’m a dreamer, but I’m not the only one

I've been asked a lot for a cheaper, more popular introduction to liberal socialism. So next summer with we're publishing an essay collection on liberal socialism @repeaterbooks.bsky.social. Includes contributions by @paulcrider.liberalcurrents.com and Florian Maiwald. Check out the cover art!

@zackpolanski.bsky.social You can do it too. Looking for a political upset for the history books. @greenparty.org.uk

A great victory for liberals, socialists, and liberal socialists across the country

Thanks for your help Bernie

Put it better than I could

Never a better time to subscribe to great outlets like @jacobinmag.bsky.social and @currentaffairs.bsky.social

Update: it tastes so sweet

Special victory/defeat beer ready for the deep chiller

Congrats @kelseabondatl.bsky.social! Great work @atldemsoc.bsky.social

Lets goooo

Special victory/defeat beer ready for the deep chiller

Well done Luke Savage www.lukewsavage.com/p/socialism-...

It must really irritate someone as egotistical as Gad that hes spent years obediently grifting for the rich and powerful. Then Zoran comes along and immediately becomes more famous and influential than he is by actually taking a stand against power rather than cosplaying the part...

Thanks guys!

The second part of our interview with @mattpolprof.bsky.social is available in text! Our edited transcripts have several very exciting excerpts (see below). Link in the first comment! 1) On the current polarization 2) Against "holier-than-thou" mentalities 3/4) Neoliberalism & Post-Modernity

Good luck to @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social. Pushing for a long awaited rebirth of common sense and common decency in New York.

They Called It! @mattpolprof.bsky.social and Michael Brooks' analysis of the IDW and postmodern conservatism warned us this shift was coming. Here's another one that made his entire career riding this wave & is changing his tune late in the game. www.konstantinkisin.com/p/what-is-ha...

Certainly, but this is the kind of socialism that I think converges with the most plausible forms of liberalism. E.g. @mattpolprof.bsky.social 's Liberal Socialism (which has a long pedigree - I draw on Rosselli myself)

When I took Ketamine, my friend’s wife went to the bathroom and I thought that one of us left the reality that we were in and I declared I was interdimentionally dialectical. That’s more intelligible than what Elon Musk wrote.

we're burying the lede here, which is that what elon is saying is stupid as dogshit

No no that’s far too much ketamine

Ben Shapiro finally wakes up to the dangers of the new right & postmodern conservatism that @mattpolprof.bsky.social has been warning people about since 2016. www.youtube.com/watch?v=OaRJ...

OMG I have been thinking about this book so much recently, a book central to my undergrad thesis on the presence of the (post)colonial present in apocalypse narratives. all which feels ... on the nose, right about now.

Just like the people who make up imaginary threats to distract you from the real ones they create, tech bros make up imaginary future goals to distract you from the many very real things you can achieve TODAY if you stop listening to them and giving them tax dollars, and start taxing them instead!

These people will speculate about the wildest sci-fi futures, and then call free buses for all unrealistic utopianism

I sometimes think how much easier life could be if I were a MAGA influencer. I could just say things without giving a shit at all whether they were true or even plausible, and have grateful rich people shower me with me money.

For those planning to attend Historical Materialism, I'll be presenting on G.A Cohen at 2:15 this Friday

Gary Dorrien talking about liberal socialism

Elon has backed every hard right movement thats appeared in the last few years; including plenty that even moderate conservatives in their own countries wont touch like the AFD in Germany, Tommy Robinson in UK and National Rally in France. Thats why people call him far right.

@mattpolprof.bsky.social has been writing about the regressive danger of the new right & postmodern conservatism for close to a decade now. It's a little late in the game to change your tune @richardhanania.blogsky.venki.dev. unherd.com/2025/11/its-...

My latest for @bostonreview.bsky.social, where I look at the growing discontent and infighting within the MAGA coalition (h/t to Curt Mills of AMERICAN CONSERVATIVE and Matt McManus at Spelman College for sharing their insights with me!) www.bostonreview.net/articles/the...

'If then, there be such a thing as a #Liberal #Socialism... it must clearly fulfil two conditions. In the first place, it must be democratic. It must come from below, not from above... [Secondly it] must give the average man free play in the personal life for which he really cares' (L.T. Hobhouse)

WHAT IS HAPPENING?!?

If I told 14 year old me this had happened hed say "time to cut back on the beer old man."

Proud to see my long essay revisiting postmodern conservatism appearing in the print issue of @damagemag.bsky.social

Rejecting platforming Nazi trolls like Fuentes isnt canceling. Its called having intellectual and moral standards

A good percentage of Hanania tweets boil down to: I still like a lot of hard right principles. But most people in that ideological space are absolutely morons, have no intention of being better, and break their intellectual standards quicker than they can lower them

Time to invoke my Toronto cred and become a shameless bandwagon fan
