The Twitter Files people are being a little cutesy and opaque about this, but that’s the point these revelations are supposed to be making — hence the repeated conceptual leaps from “Twitter personnel made a bad call here” to @pmarca’s talk of prosecutions and legal crackdown. — PolitiTweet.org

And even if 1/6 wasn’t justified per se, on this view, it was a small thing compared to the looting and arson from earlier in the year and cracking down on Trump but not on people who supported racial justice protests is an example of the continuing bad rigging. — PolitiTweet.org

If you don’t consume a lot of rightwing media you may not know the generous interpretation of Trump’s election-rigging claims is that even if the vote count was fraudulent, the race was in a larger sense “rigged” by ~big tech~ and ~the media~ thus perhaps justifying 1/6. — PolitiTweet.org

Here’s the case I made abstracted away from the particulars of the permitting reform debate and just looking generally at supply-constriction as an approach. https://t.co/6hmHLU58E3 — PolitiTweet.org

Correct: Pipeline-blocking is like imposing a small, regressive carbon tax and allocating the proceeds to fossil fuel incumbents. — PolitiTweet.org

So I don’t think the YIMBYism would have made sense in interwar Austria because growth control didn’t exist either. But I might be wrong, I learned about Red Vienna >20 years ago from a now-dead professor before YIMBYism took off — would be interested in others’ views. — PolitiTweet.org

The New Left view was to worry that both the state and the market were inclined to overprovide construction and we had to construct an apparatus of local control to ensure that we would build *less* than the market wanted, to treat construction as a form of pollution. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
That’s typically American to address a concern about the market with a very opaque private sector subsidy — the Viennese solution of direct public provision is more European (see also the Miljonprogrammet in postwar Sweden). But the debate took a turn. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
My impression from the US context is that in the old debate the right pole was “there should be as much construction as the market provides” and the Old Left pole was “no the market will generate too little construction.” Hence the US interest in Fannie/Freddie subsidy schemes. — PolitiTweet.org

If you want to spend your time getting angry at Joe Biden over hypothetical lockdowns he hasn’t imposed that’s your right as an American but it seems bad for your mental health. Nobody is locked down in Biden’s America — take the W! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 — PolitiTweet.org

It’s strange to be criticizing “lockdowns” that aren’t happening under Joe Biden — there really have been post-vaccine lockdowns in the world, but they’ve been in China not the United States. — PolitiTweet.org

There’s no point in getting subjectively mad at NBA players who are vocal on social justice but would never speak up for Uighurs — but I wouldn’t want Adam Silver to run Twitter! — PolitiTweet.org

“Hypocrisy” is a dumb argument — I understand why Musk champions free speech and opposes Covid rules at home but won’t speak on those same issues in China. It’s obvious and who can blame him? But that’s exactly what makes the situation disturbing. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
I want to be clear — my concern with @elonmusk’s unwillingness to criticize the PRC isn’t “hypocrisy” it’s that the same shareholder value motive that leads him to self-censor on this topic will lead him over time to censor the rest of us. https://t.co/N9Lpmq1fkG — PolitiTweet.org

@Thompsonklay @elonmusk Right, given his sharp critiques of Fauci I’m wondering if he has any thoughts on the much more severe and long lasting Covid policies in place in China. — PolitiTweet.org

@bot1066 @elonmusk I’m just curious, given Musk’s passion for free speech and dislike of Covid NPIs, what he thinks about the situation in China. — PolitiTweet.org
