Great overview of the free speech issues in the Afroman case
💯 worth watching in full.
And, once again in America, the best current events journalists are the "comedians".

There is no alternative. It will happen in your and mine lifetime (I think we're roughly the same age) but it won't happen in the short term. Think between 1 and 2 decades with things getting steadily worse from now until then.

One of the best things about spending a year doing street level activism was resetting my beliefs about the "system" and what people need and how close to the edge everyone is.
I can attest to what Jeff is saying -- people don't have any savings, they have no buffer. And it is isn't their fault. They aren't spending frivolously. The reason there hasn't been a minimum wage hike in decades is that money goes to the 1%.
The transfer of wealth to the top in America is utterly criminal.
Rachel E. S. LöscheThe worst thing about progressives ignoring problems with Big Tech, not even trying alternatives, is that eventually, when the fascists have ripped the last of our freedoms from us and we're left with no rights at all, those scabs still won't see that they could have made a difference.

It is amazing to me how Marc Andressen ignores the FACT that his very existence as a tech kingpin came from GOVERNMENT SPENDING.
Marc got his start in tech working at NCSA (National Center for Supercomputing Applications) where Mosaic was created.
If not for government spending, no Mosaic then no Netscape and NO MARC ANDRESSEN.
And now this chud takes a pro trump, nuke federal spending perspective.
Of course he has no interiority -- or he has to face the fact that he isn't an Ayn Rand hero.

I will be right there with you. '27 is my estimate for when it happens.
Emeritus Prof Christopher MayRIP Len Deighton.
Deighton's working class spys in books such as the Ipcress File & Funeral in Berlin were a major shift in the literature of espionage...but for me, his best work was Bomber.
And the reason: my father pilot & Squadron Leader in Bomber Command during WW2, thought it was the best depiction of what he had gone through, he ever read & this from a man who refused for the most part to discuss his role in what he had subsequently concluded was a war crime.
