Population migration to red states from blue ones isn’t an act of God, it’s the direct result of failed housing policies in Democratic led states.

"Around the world, natural resource extraction and waste generation have grown significantly. In the last six years alone, the global economy consumed over half a trillion tons of materials—nearly as much as the materials consumed throughout the entire 20th century.”

Math doesn't lie, but #MedicareAdvantage does. MA insurers are getting $2,329 *more* per beneficiary than estimated costs under Medicare. Their profit margins are DOUBLE what they make in the individual market. Is this really saving taxpayers money? i.mtrbio.com/hubececoij

the way people will mock immunocompromised people for struggling with the reality that they have to be very socially isolated all the time because covid is now endemic is honestly one of the most demoralizing aspects of my life and i think it's scummy for leftists to do it

The COVID-era boosts to SNAP, UI, CTC, and child care went away. Medicaid unwound. Food costs spiraled. Interest rates doubled. Measures of material hardship worsened. And Democrats pointed to headline figures showing a boom. theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…

When men insist on "protecting" women, what they're really doing is forcing women to be dependent on men. And men want women to be dependent on them, because then women can be forced to do the work of taking care of men.

Pete Hegseth 5 days ago: "I'm straight up just saying we should not have women in combat roles."

"rising inequality is legitimated by the popular belief that the income gap is meritocratically deserved: the more unequal a society, the more likely its citizens are to explain success in meritocratic terms... the less important... a person’s family wealth and connections."

This hits from @KeeangaYamahtta, about the urgency of growing mass politics: “The left is inhospitable to people who are not like it. So we are reduced to groups of friends & likeminded people who like to stay that way. We can’t grow like that! We can’t get big like that.”

Excellent piece examining how badly most the arguments being made right now explain the election results, and a different argument that does. Some good clips here from a piece you really should read in full.

Our bodies, their choice, as Dayna Tortorici said in 2022. The fights against "parental rights," compulsory cissexuality & forced birth are one fight: against the patriarchal privatization of social reproduction, the gendering of labor, within the familial household, for capital.

The slogan of Roe was, “My body, my choice.” The subtext of Dobbs is, “Your body, my choice.” nplusonemag.com/issue-43/the-i…
