This attitude was around pre-COVID, but I do think the pandemic intensified this kind of "fuck YOU I won't let the GOVERNMENT tell me not to huff paint" libertarianism for babies.

Policies aimed at reducing pedestrian fatalities are often framed as an inconvenience to drivers, but I personally would be glad to be spared the horror of committing vehicular manslaughter.

one of the ways Iโm quixotic is I still have hope that America resists the flattening effects of telecommunications and keeps its Weird Regional Accents (maximum complimentary). it will be a cold day in hell before i hate on an American for sounding strange as shit, those are precious gems.

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.

Hard to put into words how big of an own-goal it is for the United States to normalize shipping tolls at all, much less tolls at 20%. It's the kind of thing that appeals to someone who has only ever known how to run short-term scams.

If the argument here is "Brad Lander is too safe as a Jew in diaspora to tell Israeli Jews how to keep safe," that sits uncomfortably with the argument that a Jewish state is necessary to keep Jews safe.
