I think the right point to make about the IRA’s energy title is that it’s an extremely balanced, pragmatic approach that takes on a lot of Big Green sacred cows — it’s what Republicans pretend they want, but they’re too dug in on rich people and Big Oil. https://t.co/S5nOrWo4Og https://t.co/DVUtQGMZbW — PolitiTweet.org

I know it’s hard for people who spend a lot of time on the internet to believe, but “guy who is frustrated that Democrats aren’t left-wing enough” is an extremely rare kind of guy. There’s no upside to exaggerating the extent of policy change. https://t.co/S5nOrWo4Og — PolitiTweet.org

I think there are three basic problems with this: — It’s factually wrong — It underrated the value of winning lots of congressional seats — It’s politically counterproductive https://t.co/S5nOrWo4Og https://t.co/1CkfIACJqf — PolitiTweet.org

@awprokop @MattZeitlin A Dem director would have the credibility to just say “for political reasons we’ve decided it’s okay for Trump to break the law but here’s the evidence if you’re curious.” — PolitiTweet.org

@awprokop @MattZeitlin It seems like someone should try appointing a Democratic FBI Director at some point. — PolitiTweet.org

And I sort of get it, claiming to have achieved optimality is arrogant and suggests you’re an annoying person and possibly a bad hang. But the less-obnoxious bad habit of not even trying is more harmful to the world — not least because it’s so much more widespread. — PolitiTweet.org

That’s human nature, the humility of the bird guy is appealing while the hubris of claiming that your cause is the best and most important cause is threatening. So a huge amount of flagrantly, willfully non-optimal philanthropic work goes unscrutinized. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
In other words if you say “I work on preserving bird breeding grounds in rural Maryland” people say “fair enough.” But if you say “I work on mass deworming programs in Africa and I think this is the best cause in the world” people feel highly motivated to tear down your claims. — PolitiTweet.org

An point I’m stealing from my wife is that lots of people dedicate their lives to nonprofits that *nobody* believes are working on the world’s most important problems and nobody gets mad at them over it. The boldness of the claim “X really matters a lot” triggers people. — PolitiTweet.org

Going to Texas tomorrow! When I went last summer, I was looking forward to taking a break from Blue America Covid rules. But now we don't have those rules anymore either. If the recent apparent revival of Dem electoral fortunes is real, I think surrendering on this has helped. — PolitiTweet.org

@JHWeissmann @EricLevitz I just doubt that it did. I think Dem elites were bought-in on climate prioritization and then the activism was *at best* a huge waste of time and money but more plausibly was counterproductive. — PolitiTweet.org
