"Blueskyism" helped make The Onion one of the largest newspapers in the world in less than a year. If we had spent all of our time on Twitter, we'd be poorer, dumber and terminally ill with internet poisoning. He's just angry he's wasting away over there in a nazi agnostic lane that doesn't exist.

But also, if there IS fact a "Blueskyism," that means we're doing it right. That means that we're hanging in some kind of community despite the very real conflicts between left, ultra-left, left of center, old school liberals, and the couple of Never Trumpets.

Perhaps not globally, but Putin / Xi have managed to put a pretty tight "iron fist" on what's allowed to be posted online or not, without going to a gulag. This is why it so important to Putin/Trump to have the SM"Techies" Zuck/Musk in their pocket, and why RU began investing in US SM very early on.

The only way to produce lasting peace in Ukraine is to defeat Russia, force it to return to 2014 borders and admit Ukraine into NATO and the EU. Anything less is likely simply to produce only a temporary pause before Russia attacks again.

We do not fully grasp how damaging the SCOTUS’ presidential immunity decision was. What we know is it was a disaster and the huge damage it has caused is being compounded daily. That is because the result is a collaboration between corrupt justices, a supine Congress and a demented President.

One strange advantage of fascism is that a surprising number of intellectuals appear to find talking about it incredibly boring: it’s so facially evil. “Fascism bad” doesn’t seem worth anyone’s time so it often gets attacked only as part of a collateral attack on other, more interesting targets.
