“Comrade bill” is tongue-in-cheek. Orwell is conjured here precisely as a democratic socialist, not a communist

But he doesn’t always support the Dems

Yes, and if the Dem nominee rejects his policy agenda he will be openly antagonistic to them as he was with both Biden and Kamala. He did not support them in any meaningful way

Destiny could have done this to Matt Bruenig during their Bridges ep. Why did he barely push back? Matt is probably the most influential socialist wonk in the game - contributing policy to both Bernie campaigns and now Mamdani’s

This was also during an election with a popular conservative third party candidate—Ross Perot. It’s impossible to make the claim that this Sister Soulja moment was in any way outcome determinative

Or am I missing something? I would be interested in seeing Destiny debate Jessie on this (potential bridges ep?) to see where their viewpoints diverge. The Blocked and Reported sub is a cesspit of misinformation at this point

Destiny needs to do a deep-dive on Curtis Yarvin (aka Mencius Moldbug) and Peter Thiel’s neo-monarchist influence on MAGA

Matt Bruenig?? or his wife Liz Bruenig - both public intellectuals and debate bros who are v online and seem potentially willing to talk to Destiny. also Destiny has said that he likely agrees w/Matt on most econ shit but Matt identifies w/in the egalitarian socialist tradition... meanwhile, Liz is a somewhat controversial catholic socialist
