Which is why Capitalism fans hated all the COVID restrictions: it exposed what jobs were really necessary to keep society running. And it wasn't all the middle-managers and VP of sales, it was the grocery store workers, the fast food workers, the mailmen, the garbage men, etc.

The COVID-19 pandemic undermined the right in several key ways: 1) It showed us which workers are essential and empowered them. 2) It showed that the markets can’t solve everything. 2) It threatened GOP political prospects in a critical election. 4) Government relief proved popular and effective

Here’s a fact: I would NEVER vote for someone because Hakeem Jeffries told me to. He has no sway with me at all. I would, however, consider voting for someone if Zohran Mamdani told me to. Because if he likes someone, that’s worth a look. I think Hakeem doesn’t fully grasp that shift.

I think it's important to understand that people who identify as conservatives have not, as a group, turned away as their party has gone to full mask-off fascism whatsoever, so we can see their true ideology and we can stop pretending to believe in the fake ideology they propounded to disguise it.

I think the "block & move on" strategy is great for most people. But when you have any sort of following or public facing job it's less cut & dry. It still probably works for a lot of the crap, but there are absolutely ones that need to be held up to the light & publicly told their actions are bad
