Israel must be destroyed. It should never have been created in 1948, or allowed to maintain an illegal occupation since 1967, or impose a blockade on #Gaza since 2007.

An intellectually misguided tour and lack of clarity as to the nuance of nuance.
Weaknesses of MMT as a guide to development policy academic.oup.com/cje/article-ab…
This critique represents another failure of imagination. The problem is not that MMT cannot be developed, complicated or criticized. It's that critics tend to proceed without nuance, generosity or an appreciation for MMT's underlying values & stakes. 1/4
