I think one of the more important skills you can have in 2026 is knowing when someone is performatively using progressive coded language to argue for something that is fundementally not progressive because they can claim a perceived moral high ground.
my nuclear-grade AI hot take that’s sure to get me cancelled until kingdom come is that refusing to use AI at all is rapidly becoming an extremely privileged lifestyle choice that feels social justice-y while actually being the complete opposite
being anti AI is a luxury belief only available to first world people, especially Americans

"Development capitalism is a historically progressive force in smashing the urban gentry," send tweet.
looked at in longer perspective, it's striking how much this resembles the premodern system of exclusion, rents, and personalist connections, which was--and this part's important--radically worse than the modern system of impersonal rules and general taxation
Boston’s chief planner is a true believer in the San Francisco model, in which you make it impossible to profitably build apartments by-right so developers are forced into a politicized discretionary negotiation with the city, which relaxes the rules in exchange for below-market units.

This is just orientalism for people who think they’re progressive
But this is looking at GDP only.
The parent in Texas spends on average 4.5 hours sitting in the car.
The Japanese parent has a free range kid who walks himself to school.
Japanese is "poorer" but I would prefer it.

This is a great thread in general, but esp if you have friends buying into white leftists calling themselves progressive trying to convince you their populism is progressive, while calling actual progressive Dems “centrist/status quo/establishment,” insisting a class war has nothing to do with race…
I'm so *tired* of people blaming every fascist movement on "material conditions," especially in the US.
If you actually look at the history and the empirical data, "economic anxiety" is almost always a polite cover story for white status panic.

Dawg we are talking about 1966, no American white working man was suddenly getting left high and dry by deindustrialization or austerity or recession
The only “radical shift in the material conditions” was “you have to let black people into your school/office/shop/apartment block now”

That's why they throw a tantrum every time an establishment dem loses a primary to someone even mildly progressive like Mamdani.

Assuming, for the sake of argument, that Yglesias actually is a progressive (lol). What he's saying here is that he wants progressive not to have awareness of a global fascist movement.
