A few years ago I saw Garry Kasparov (Russian chess grandmaster) talking about the problem w/U.S. politics: base voters supporting their party the way rabid sports fans support their favorite team, even if the team is a terrible, ongoing source of heartbreak & pain.

The farm sector is in a long-term abusive relationship with this president - he hurts them over & over again, and when the election comes around, they say, "Well, he promised he won't do it again"

Need to double check ... did our guy take the oath of office on the Holy Bible or Das Kapital?
I look forward to the president's ham-handed Neville Chamberlain act, waving some worthless document around and claiming to have secured "peace in our time" by selling out an ally. He's getting played like a grand piano, again.

The glorious Age of AI Agents that people like @sama and @DarioAmodei promised is … turning out be a bust. All of this was entirely predictable. Shame on anyone who believed them.

Alfalfa is a legume and a $7.5 billion ag business in the US. This research helps farmers increase yields and profitability, but the govt calls it "waste".

This is the central thesis of Arlie Russell Hochschild's 2016 book Strangers in Their Own Land, explaining why Tea Party Conservatives in Louisiana keep voting against their own interests. All rooted in anger, resentment, and bitterness. No one was talking about policy.

The Cold War joke was that if you wanted to know what's happening in the USSR, read the US papers, but if you wanted to know what the US was up to, read the Soviet papers. Foreign press seems like the only place to gain perspective in this moment.

This should lead the A-block on every evening newscast tonight. These people are not stupid - they've simply chosen to abandon their true beliefs in order to cozy up to power. It's the oldest story ever told.

Harris would have been smart to brush up on what happened in 1968 when VP Humphrey (the next in line) refused to break with LBJ on the unpopular Hanoi-bombing policy until it was too late, handing victory to Nixon.
