It's very obvious that the "sanctity of life" is the unifying ethos of modern conservatism no matter which particular area of policy you look. Just one big ol' seamless garment, really.
Good thing the Covid-super-spreader party for the Pro Life justice didn't kill anyone! (That we know of)
Also so grateful all the president's buddies got the (at that time hard to get) monoclonal antibody treatment while hundreds of thousands died lonely terrifying deaths gasping for air and saying good bye to their loved ones on iPads.
Choose life!

A few additional thoughts on this characteristically great @michelleinbklyn column...

nytimes.com/2021/11/22/opi…
Speaking for myself the root of The Bad Feeling has to do with the tension between the normal dynamics of a competitive two-party democracy, with the growing anti-democratic politics of one of those two parties.
Basically, in a two-party democracy you expect the two coalitions to trade power back and forth, to share it between branches and levels of government and to have lots of fights/conflicts all the time. That's politics. One party isn't gonna win all the time.

Last time a big CBO score was in the news the current governor of Montana assaulted a reporter who asked him about it and then his flack Shane Scalon and him lied to the police about it and no one ever faced any real consequences.
Luckily the very good reporter he assaulted for doing his job, @Bencjacobs was ok. But I've come to realize that if he'd, say, bludgeoned him badly enough to send him to the hospital for a week, it's likely nothing would have been *that* different. I hope I'm wrong.
@Bencjacobs Also, Trump would later approvingly joke about the assualt (of course) just as he will -- mark my words -- one day joke about the "Hang Mike Pence!" chant.

One of the ugliest, most unwatchable football games I have ever seen. Just awful all around.

Because I'm a liberal, who can't take my own side in an argument, I thought I'd offer a little bit of a counter to the thrust of this essay. It's not a rebuttal, but an extension.

There are lots of things that are *great* about the internet and social media and the connections they can create. What I've come to think is that there is Good Internet and Bad Internet. (From an experiential point of view; I'm not talking about disinformation and the like.)
Good Internet is produced by mutual relationships of reciprocity, either people you know irl, or actual relationships you form in online spaces. This is why group texts are so great! Bad Internet is basically everything else.

I think it's hard, at this point, to say something new about social media and the effect it's having on us, socially, psychologically and spiritually. But I tried!

newyorker.com/news/essay/on-…
A few points:

1) The biggest change that comes from our current internet isn't who can speak but what we can hear.

2) That is, we have given just about everyone enormous powers of surveilance.

<con't>
3) The experience of being on the other end of that surveillance, even though we bring it on ourselves, is a profoundly alienating one.

4) The reason it is so alienating is that it tickles but doesn't satisfy out most fundamental human desire, the desire to be recognized.

Bracketing for a moment that the premises of the so-called "replacement theory" or racist garbage, it's also just descriptively wrong about the priorities of the Democratic party.
I've been covering immigration for 15 years, and in that time the Democratic party has had unified control of WH and congress twice and I think odds are this time, like last time, they will not pass reform that legalizes the 11 million,
Not only that! Obama admin, quite famously, pursued an intense "enforcement-first" approach to the issue. And as I speak now, the Biden admin is shipping desperate Haitains back to Haiti.
