Like there was Best of 2020/21 with the worst takes ever. I'm looking for links to those plus the 2022 edition if anyone's got it.
I vaguely remember a few:
- Bernie reminds me of when my abusive dad throws the pot roast at the wall when he talks too loudly about healthcare
- political consultant white woman with dyed hair who looks like a hunger games villian and tweets like 90s era snoop dogg. I'm talking like "yo yo wiggity wack" levels of cringe
- Person who says they would genocide 1 billion dogs to save a hypothetical baby, unprompted
- Anti mask woman who posted a mask that looks like someone rubbed fucking Cheeto dust on the inside and says everyone's mask looks like that at the end of the day
- hornyposting about sex w/ Beto or something
There's tons of others but these are the ones that live rent free in my head.
Is Cory just a lib? I thought he was some kind of left. I mostly just know about the enshittification article, which presents it as a natural feature of capitalism, which is correct.
he's an anticap radlib. enshittification is good analysis it's just insufficient and entirely compatible with liberal critiques of crony capitalism/regulatory capture/etc. the trpf alone doesn't make an analysis a material or class-based one, and I've never seen Doctorow combine it with those things.
