But then nobody backed down. Troops mobilized. Other troops mobilized in defense. And a senseless and needless war ravaged Europe for four years because great powers decided that winning was the most important thing. 4/

@leedrutman -- Mon Sep 27 12:16:22 +0000 2021
This high-stakes bluffing game is obviously familiar to Washington. But the risks in a bluffing game are that one side miscalculates. This becomes increasingly likely when the political costs of backing down increase. 1/ https://t.co/vE89SQxRdO

American democracy would be much better with fewer elections, but more meaningful choices. Right now, America has more elections than any other democracy in the world, but the fewest number of meaningful choices. The result: endless promises, endless disappointments.
@leedrutman -- Mon Sep 27 19:27:21 +0000 2021
The easiest way to solve the problem of primary threats is to eliminate primaries, and let parties nominate their candidates. But that requires proportional representation with multiple parties so voters have choices. Otherwise, it's corrupt and uncompetitive (see 1890s US)

@rickhasen -- Mon Sep 27 14:13:23 +0000 2021
And we need to be prepared for massive peaceful protests if political officials try to overrun the will of the people in 2024. We need to be vigilant to protect free and fair elections, something I never expected to worry about in the U.S. /19
@rickhasen -- Mon Sep 27 14:13:23 +0000 2021
We also need to organize politically, to fight those who would run for office embracing the false claims that the 2020 election was stolen. Those people are much more likely to mess with a fair count in 2024. /18
@rickhasen -- Mon Sep 27 14:13:22 +0000 2021
I'll have more to say about whether Democrats should go it alone on fighting election subversion soon. But making changes in law won't be enough. We need to solidify norms of running fair elections and bolster election officials with integrity. /17
@rickhasen -- Mon Sep 27 14:13:22 +0000 2021
It's easy to think of changes that could greatly lessen the risk of a stolen election in 2024, including paper ballots, reform of the Electoral Count Act (which @ThePlumLineGS) has pushed, and more. Part III of my paper lays out what needs to happen. https://t.co/zZxE9RT9Cs /16

The Austrian far-right party (FPO) recedes significantly today in regional elections of Upper Austria: It got a high percentage (20%), but it lost a third of its votes compared to last time (30%). Parallel to Germany's election today, where AfD slipped (though remains high).

Likeliest scenario is for the social-dems(SPD) to lead the German government, for first time since 1998-2005, in an alliance with the Greens & center-right FDP. (All-left alliance of Greens, SPD, & Linke not enough.) But CDU says they’ll ask Greens and FDP for an alliance too.

@bobby2700 SPD/Greens is the reason I wrote roughly. (Both are split between centrist and leftier wings, tho Greens leaning far more toward former nowadays. In any case:) in this election, the big question left is whether Greens & FDP ally with SPD or CDU, so made sense to put them between.
@Taniel -- Mon Sep 27 12:29:59 +0000 2021
This is: —1st time in past 5 national elections that the SPD (social-Dem) is first party — highest the Greens have ever been in a national election — lowest CDU/CSU (conservatives) has ever been — drop for ADP/far-right from its height last time (13%) — big drop too for the Linke

German results: A large center-left rise leaves them favored to run government, but nothing guaranteed. From left to right (roughly): Linke: 4.9% | 39 seats (-30) SPD: 25.7% | 206 (+53) Greens: 14.8% | 118 (+51) FDP: 11.5% | 92 (+12) CDU: 24.1% | 196 (-50) ADP: 10.3% | 83 (-11)

A take I’ve been meaning to do at full length but will just toss off half-assed here for now is that some of what progressives conceptualize as a debate about race and racism plays to a lot of people as a debate about patriotism.

If Trump is a clownish, inept, floundering figure then sure — swing for the fences, take your shot, and aim for true greatness accepting that you might lose. But if he’s menace, you need to do timid defensive crouch politics.

yep! “reform not defund” elides the fact that police departments are largely outside of lower-case democratic control, and “reform” rests on a two-way assumption of legitimacy. can’t reform anything that doesn’t view the reformer as legitimate to begin with. https://t.co/EOrPcUqvj8

@mattyglesias @OsitaNwanevu @Nate_Cohn And I should say, inflammatory in both directions, since its underlying premise — if I’m right about what you think here — is that the American electorate contains a huge amount of anti-black racism that Democrats have to tread carefully around.
@jbouie -- Mon Sep 27 17:38:30 +0000 2021
@mattyglesias @OsitaNwanevu @Nate_Cohn But since Democrats do need to attract those voters, and the party is already coded as “racially liberal” (to put it politely), directly addressing black concerns over racism ends up alienating the “50-year-old white people” who say are in the driver’s seat of American politics.
@jbouie -- Mon Sep 27 17:36:44 +0000 2021
@mattyglesias @OsitaNwanevu @Nate_Cohn So this makes me think that the reason people keep saying your point is banal is that you’re not actually stating your point. As I read you, you’re saying something like “Democrats are undermining themselves by making ‘attitudes about black people’ a salient political concern.”

@mewn21 @DegenSpartan FTT is directly correlated to FTX success as the FTT burned is dependent upon exchange volume. Not the case with DYDX tokens, you actually take on extra risk as it acts as an insurance fund for the protocol (amongst other things). Holders don't get any fees as far as I know.
