Someone observed that @ebruenig is “politically left but culturally middle American”…one should underscore the extraordinary individual pertinacity required to put oneself through elite grooming institutions while remaining the latter
And of course that extraordinary effort invariably alters the underlying substrate thus preserved through it
There is a certain parasocial relationship to the self that proceeds the ability to project it so effortlessly to others
That someone was Bruenig herself in a since deleted tweet. I however saw someone else repeating it in a reply.
