The working class is much less desperate than in the past. Have billionaires moved the Overton window in the UK, France, Germany, Scandinavia, Italy, Hungary, India, Brazil, Argentina all at once? Or maybe there’s a more structural explanation, something that affected everyone at the same time

“Why have countries that have moved an ever-growing share of social interactions into a frictionless online space, where political claims are validated or invalidated by popularity alone, seen a commensurate rise in extreme political factions driven by emotional catharsis and decoupled from reality”

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

inequality went down 2020-24, cost of living went down over the same period, the increase in nonwhite Americans is a long trend that barely budged in that period. the thing that changed, a lot, is the media and information environment, which became dramatically more fascist
