This is an interesting thread. My interpretation is the reason conservatives lose in culture wars is that the purpose of the conservative movement is to help rich people stay rich — the culture wars are purely instrumental. Hence the treatment of Hunger Games. — PolitiTweet.org

One reason conservatives lose in culture wars is that when conservative cultural products get made, we crap on them… https://t.co/dwxhfNThaX

A traditional concern is that redistribution is a “leaky bucket” with large efficiency costs but we in fact have many leaky buckets of upwards redistribution. https://t.co/P3JPpCEWWF — PolitiTweet.org

Absolutely — but note that happiness scaling linearly with the *log* of income means there are large gains from redistribution. — PolitiTweet.org

Message discipline is good but it’s hard to enforce movement-wide message discipline. Twitter volunteered to do it for American conservatives, leaving all the right’s best commentators in place while draining much of the fever swamp without explicit intra-coalition fighting. — PolitiTweet.org

Correct take from @daveweigel — as I’ve been saying for a while, Twitter “censorship” of the most obnoxious rightist accounts was in practice a huge favor to the GOP. https://t.co/RvmSByqCah — PolitiTweet.org

Remote work is a big fiscal hit to central cities and those losses are going to have to be distributed. New York can, and should, spare the vast majority of its people by clawing back these kind of rents. https://t.co/BcSmi7tONN https://t.co/Yyt895nDcT — PolitiTweet.org

Why are these sheds everywhere? — NYC has unusually strict masonry inspection rules — NYC requires sheds rather than nets — Unusually high construction costs due to a separate unique rule High-rent city has many metaphorical rents to distribute. https://t.co/BcSmi7tONN https://t.co/ZplOrUyv0c — PolitiTweet.org

The correct number of parties is eight (plus maybe an extra one for a national minority group): — Fascists — Kinda fashy — Christian Dems — Market liberals — Social liberals — Greens — Social Dems — “Ex”-Communists — PolitiTweet.org

Too many political parties! You can’t have a right-liberal party, a christian democratic party, two different confessional parties, and multiple right-populist parties — we’re living in a society. https://t.co/qEdZQ6uGIz — PolitiTweet.org
