Why I Still Don’t Trust Antifa: A Leftist Perspective
In my first post, I took a shot at Antifa—mostly for its aesthetics. I was going through a lot at the time and didn’t really know why I had such a strong reaction, but I still stand by what I said. Now, I want to elaborate because I think it’s important to address the deeperContinue reading “Why I Still Don’t Trust Antifa: A Leftist Perspective”
Everything Is Bullshit
Everything is bullshit. Honestly, that’s the only way I can even begin this anymore. I wish I could sugarcoat it, or build up to it, or pretend there’s some hopeful arc or graceful easing-in to the point, but there isn’t. Because everything is bullshit. Right wing, left wing, center, capitalism, communism, socialism, fascism, anti‑fascism, democrats,Continue reading “Everything Is Bullshit”

There’s something deeply unsettling about seeing Zohran Mamdani, the supposed progressive beacon of New York City, appear on Fox News.

And I think Zohran’s decision to go on Fox isn’t aboutContinue reading “The Fox News Appearance: The First Sign of Capitulation”
The Hard Reality: Why Not Voting for Zohran Isn’t Appeasement — It’s Survival
People are going to call it appeasement. I already know that. They’ll say that not voting for Zohran is giving in to Trump. They’ll say it’s cowardice, or selling out, or betraying progressive values. But it’s none of those things. It’s realism. It’s logistics. It’s survival. This isn’t about ideology anymore. This isn’t about labels,Continue reading “The Hard Reality: Why Not Voting for Zohran Isn’t Appeasement — It’s Survival”
The Final Boss of Centrism: A Glorious Descent into Infinite Bothsidesism
Meet the Ultimate Centrist. No, not your uncle who listens to NPR and thinks both parties “have valid points.” We’re talking about the final boss of centrism. The philosophical eldritch horror of neutrality. The human Schrödinger’s cat of political discourse. A person so aggressively moderate, they make Chidi from The Good Place look like aContinue reading “The Final Boss of Centrism: A Glorious Descent into Infinite Bothsidesism”
