Feel like shit, just want him back

You can see how, before we even get to the arguments, just the attitude on display here is likely to provoke irritation, because it is condescending and smug. When Yglesias writes of the “socialist niece who posts obsessively about Genocide Joe,” he is not taking seriously the possibility that this woman could be correct: that she has been persuaded by the International Court of Justice filings showing evidence that Israel is engaged in genocide and posts “obsessively” because she sees genocide as morally urgent. Instead, there is an implication that this person is somehow mentally unwell. Indeed, Yglesias’s reaction to seeing a poem about the Gaza genocide is that it shows the “increasingly porous boundaries between mental illness and leftwing politics.” Setting aside the question of whether Yglesias is persuaded by the ICJ case against Israel, this is the attitude of an asshole.

We should show the same level of respect for the opinions of Matt Yglesias and his ilk that he shows for the “socialist niece who posts obsessively about Genocide Joe,” that is to say, none at all.

Currently, Martial Law has been in place for about 5 hours and President Yoon claims he intends to formally lift it once he convenes his cabinet. Bonus points if you get it down to the minute!

Two fun facts: in the 1920's 1 out of ever 7 long islanders was a member of the KKK, and to this day Nassau and Suffolk are in the top 10 to top 5 most segregated counties in the country.

There's an uncomfortable comfort in shitposting through the coolzone again after all these years. And yeah, I do kinda want to see some kid micro-ing a few hundred drones through an air-defense network.

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken previously lauded Yoon

While the Biden administration has thus far remained mostly silent on Yoon’s declaration of martial law, US officials have praised the president at events in recent months, including a pro-democracy summit that his government hosted in March.

“President Yoon has said that the United States and Korea are marching together toward the future. Today is another reflection of the work that we’re doing together, the fact that we are joined together in building a better, more secure, more prosperous future for all of our people,” Blinken said at a news event in October.

At a state luncheon honouring Yoon in April 2023, Blinken, known to incorporate music into his public appearances, complimented Yoon on his own singing skills, saying that he had “brought down the house” when he sang the song American Pie at a previous event.
