Just a reminder. Just b/c new market-rate housing opens up units (good thing usually, if aren’t physically displacing low-cost units), including lower-cost units, 1) doesn’t mean that all those units will all go to low-income households; 2) doesn’t provide long-term, stable, deeply affordable units.
Read my new piece with @jasonhackworth.bsky.social in the #JournalofBlackStudies. We have some thoughts about this…and it’s open access!
Happy to finally see this one in print! In this article with @jasonhackworth.bsky.social in #JournalofBlaclStudies, we focus on the role of rhetoric in promoting the propaganda of conservative economics (timely!). Check it out…

The thing with Trump saying crazy bullshit is that I’m sure some media people are thinking “if only the Republicans could get back to their serious core issues” and it’s like what are those? Buzz Lightyear woke? Bud Light? Gay M&M’s? Trickle down economics? Being scared of 19 year olds on campuses?
When you build a career as a market fundamentalist libertarian, the step towards “let’s work with the fascists” often turns out to be a small one.
It was fine when they were doing it to black people, but now they’re doing it to ME! bsky.app/profile/ronf...
At the core of GOP conservatism since the 1930s has been the desire to roll back the New Deal. For all its putative “populism,” Trumpism is, on balance, more a part of this tradition than a diversion from it.
Our #SolidarityCitiesBook just arrived! 10 years of work and writing with @craigborowiak.bsky.social @stephenhealy72.bsky.social @msafri.bsky.social. A critical but hopeful study of #SolidarityEconomy, past and present. Cool maps, new data, many stories. See ordering info below.
Yup. For being “offensive innovators” neither he nor Day ever have a “plan B” when plan A isn’t working
Bingo. If I remember correctly, Ben Shapiro was only able to launch the Daily Wire because he got $15 million in start up funds from the Wilks brothers. There's just no one dumping that kind of money into people on the left.
How do we have 800 of these articles and none contend with the fundamental issue which is rich liberals don’t want to fund left media, they want to fund liberal media which is bloodless and partisan, by definition. GOP courts its extremes, liberals discipline theirs.

You are reviewing ALL of those? Are you on an award committee? Or just a masochist?
This obsession is unhealthy. Our horizons are fine. Also social media, for most, is not a job. It is not school. It is socializing. And it’s fine to say “I don’t want to hang out with Nazis, homophobes, transphobes etc in my free time.”
Ugh. He is so insufferable and sooo much less intelligent than he thinks he is
The ICC charged Netanyahu and Gallant with criminal responsibility for withholding humanitarian aid and deliberately starving a civilian population.
Meanwhile, Biden & Blinken claimed no such thing was happening. It is unreasonable to single out Netanyahu. Biden & Blinken should be charged as well

Fool me once, etc. What exactly were his "heterodoxies" on taxes and health care in 2016. In these areas and many others (guns, abortion, deregulation, climate change), he called for the exact same thing as every GOP candidate: tax cuts for rich and repeal of ACA.
