It was a bit of an unexpected struggle, but the House just managed to divert another $61 billion to another country. A Martian might wonder at how motivated our rulers are to fund foreign wars and how uninterested they are that 40 million Americans live below the poverty line
And less importantly, this is also good advice for novelists trying to imagine realistic characters. From @robertwrighter : "Cognitive empathy is our best weapon against attribution error, and attribution error is the enemy of peace." nonzero.substack.com/p/the-kay-burl…

Yes. There's no question that China's increasing power and prosperity is at least associated with (if not causally connected with) far lower military spending, virtually zero overseas bases, & no "interventions." Yet to our rulers, America always at war remains addiction & dogma.

Since Nancy Pelosi has signed a congressional letter demanding that the US stop sending weapons to Israel — possibly for a long long time — we have to ask the obvious question: How did Putin get to her?

This. The solution to public discourse you disagree with or dislike is more discourse, not less. If your ideas can't stand up to scrutiny, then they are most likely not worth much.
Those who burn books have something to hide. Those who widely share their opponents' views, are those who believe they are fundamentally correct.
