The endless efforts to build egalitarian politics on the idea that successful rightwing businessmen are secretly dumb — rather than that they are smart, somewhat selfish people whose interests are sometimes opposed to good policy — strikes me as a real dead end. — PolitiTweet.org

You are smarter than Elon Musk. Why? Because you know that truth is not the same as what you want to hear. https://t.co/b0bYlTcNf2

It’s a funny inversion of the culture war dynamics of my youth that “important people from all walks of life should read the great books” has become mostly lib-coded. — PolitiTweet.org

The Inflation Reduction Act takes a wise, tech-neutral approach to energy spending but we need regulatory changes to match that. — PolitiTweet.org

Meanwhile *especially* if you’re counting on 100% renewables (which in practice means hydrogen) you can’t make your whole politics be about blocking pipeline infrastructure — that hydrogen isn’t going to transport itself. https://t.co/wbcTnK6UWt — PolitiTweet.org

And the same is true of nuclear — mass production of modular reactors may never pan out. But the case for adopting a regulatory framework under which it *might* pan out is clear and strong. https://t.co/wH2VEIulHb — PolitiTweet.org

That could be hydrogen! But it also might be geothermal or it might be nuclear or it might be something else. It’s hard to predict the future, it’s easy to see that the cost-benefit of reforming geothermal permitting is positive. https://t.co/IxMy8tIJjw — PolitiTweet.org

I think it’s worth trying to be less partisan and more agnostic about which Future Tech TK will pan out. The key is to assess everything with the knowledge that some Breakthrough TK is in fact needed. https://t.co/r87OfNucNw — PolitiTweet.org

This is framed as an anti-nuclear take, but note that the upshot if you read between the lines is that the 100% renewable grid requires some massive Breakthrough TK in hydrogen generation and transportation. — PolitiTweet.org
