AI war is a kinds cool game but I always find the reality of playing it drier and slower than I'd like (I'm also bad so I play on lower difficulties, maybe at the top end it's different)

Of course Ezra Klein is hanging out with the worst people in the world. He's always on the hunt for a new gutter to pick up some fetid idea and tart it up for liberals.
