We like to imagine our political opponents possibly being undone by some grand reveal,
Some time ago I decided against this happening. The odds are remote. That doesn't mean we don't keep chipping away.
Put me in the other camp that thinks that's unlikely. Same here.
The Powers That Be. Right-wing populism is generally founded on a belief that the nation's Corrupt Elites have rigged the system against the Good Common Folk - that's universal to right-wing populist movements everywhere
It's true, just not the way they see it. Self-interested people can lobby to get laws and tax favorable to them, and separately they can accomplish it, by supporting income streams for people to espouse social and economic theories that favor them. They can also talk to each other, create informal groups, etc., etc., etc. Populism is the great "us", which is perceived differently depending on who you are talking to.
So 3.5 years of this. I hope we get to bring Epstein up again and again and again, adding to it as we go.
