GOP Failure Watch Part VI (Majority in House Edition) The Insurrection Caucus Sh*tshow.

You're looking at it form an outsider's view, while Sounders is looking at it from an insider's view. And this is what I've been trying to get across to everybody who tries to poke holes in Republican/evangelical Christian logic. Our view of the who they are and how they act is not in the same room as how they view the world and how they act. Basically it's like telling two sports teams in different sports to play each other. They are both going to look at the competition through the paradigm of their own sport.

ETA - oh i see he covers that

 

This is the better essay from Ganz on the emerging fascism represented by Thiel

Where to begin? First of all, yes, Thiel’s libertarianism is about freedom—freedom for him and people like him, the entrepreneurial elite of the capitalist class. He’s openly antidemocratic. In an essay for the Cato Institute, Thiel once wrote, “I no longer believe that freedom and democracy are compatible…” Why? Because if you empower the demos, they will eventually vote for restrictions on the power of capitalists. and therefore, restrictions on their “freedom.” He continues, “Since 1920, the vast increase in welfare beneficiaries and the extension of the franchise to women — two constituencies that are notoriously tough for libertarians — have rendered the notion of ‘capitalist democracy‘ into an oxymoron.” In that 2009 essay, Thiel imagines a kind of futurist program of utopian projects “beyond politics” in cyberspace or “seasteading,” but it’s clear now he’s returned to believing in politics, or at least an anti-political form of politics.​

Libertarianism is the final, decadent phase of classical liberalism.

 

Its remarkable how this stuff is openly anti-democratic - he openly said so recently yet the media don't report that
