That’s what happens when you write about a campaign’s electoral approach right before an event that will be a plain demonstration of that campaign’s approach
I absolutely loved the moment when "attentional intelligence" triggered Felix. No more clever jokes, just "SHUT THE FUCK UP!" I felt that. So cathartic.
The original brat pack story is way more interesting than whatever this is. Young beautiful actors win fame, earn millions of bucks, get into bad relationships and take too many drugs. That's entertainment.
The author of this article sounds like he's recounting an MK Ultra questionnaire and having a stroke. All the while standing in a polling booth with his last two brain cells circling each other before colliding and annihilating completely. Bravo.
Anon's Response: Talking it over (be it in clubs, on balconies or any number of other areas I haunt frequently) with frenemies, with fresh-faced freshmen, with fake friends from the many milieus in which I most roam freely, I reached a non-optimal propositional imposition: is my leather jacket and jimmy neutron hair- not as drop-dead ‘dope-status’ as I had ostensibly delusionally imagined? Ha! Imagine that! I suppose you’d have me wear a hat?!
Yeah this guy popped up a bit years ago and spoke quite well about wealth inequality, didn't know he was a Warren guy who is now in the pocket for Harris, how embarrassing.
When he wrote "Winners takes all" he had some legit things to say. He took a turn towards being a Democratic shill once Biden won the nomination in 2020. Before that he was very critical of Biden being the nominee. But he made a willing rhetorical shift when he had to become a Biden advocate. I stopped following him around that time, and I rechecked his twitter feed more recently, and how deep he's gone down that hole is unbelievable. I can't believe I used to take him seriously.
The turn Anand has taken since writing "Winners Take All" is pretty sad. He was critical of Biden before he won the nomination in 2020. But when Biden secured the nomination he fell in line and slipped down some kind of hole... and maybe he realized being an MSNBC liberal would be good for his career. He's almost unrecognizable now.
He was a Mckinsey consultant, neoliberalism is in his blood. When republicans run stuff, progressivism pays because it's cheap to espout. When dems run stuff, progressivism is a liability to the party.
Right but if you read his book, his entire point is that consultancies are bullshit and have a criminal level of control over society. Genuinely if you haven’t the book is a great read, it IS wild OP, the turn is crazy
Hey now, let's not get carried away. McMegan is still probably the world's finest exporter of Thundering Idiocy as far as media wonks are concerned. Anand Giridharadas just sounds like another johnny-come-lately that wants to be like the Vox Boys but "relatable". He's still an obnoxious idiot, make no mistake, but McMegan, MattY and co are on another level of being obnoxious, insincere imbeciles.
The Reading Series is back baby! Will putting his publishing cap on and getting annoyed at bad sentences is a very underrated Chapo bit imo, so this was great We are so back!
Although I don't like the NPC meme, that all these liberals say the exact same things - how "selfless" it was for Biden to step down, the "brat" thing, etc. - I can believe that people like Anand don't have any thoughts or beliefs of their own that they didn't get from DNC HQ.
Wow. I’m working on my entrence essay for a PhD program, I have multiple learning disabilities so I struggle but still love to write. This dudes essay Is making me feel much better because I don’t think mine is as unbearable as this 👀👏✨👹
The fact that you were able to reach a doctoral level despite intellectual disabilities is an achievement in itself (or are intellectual and learning disabilities different and I just said something really offensive)
Anand's "Winners Takes All" was pretty decent. But he seems to have distanced himself a lot from those earlier takes and has come back around to that pro-plutocrat consulting world he supposedly repudiated.
14:08 OMG! He's at least two rungs below even Peter Coffin's understanding of the "attention economy"! ANAND IS JUST DOING IDEALISM HERE! IT'S JUST LIBERALISM! 👀👀👀👀👀
I'm pretty sure Will has a rant where he scolds the Democrats for not creating a narrative and being too focused on "plans." This "story telling" garbage is what he asked for.
Sounds like you're misrepresenting Will's arguments. IDK which rant you could be referencjng, but I imagine it's one of two things (or both). (1) criticism of neoliberal technocracy (2) always talk of plans but never any actual delivery of results
@Justin-cu3qx lol i was trying to figure out why people hate felix, but i realized it's just this dude. Idk what hes trying to accomplish, but engagement is engagement i guess
I can't believe we've effectively just rediscovered the "girlboss" dynamic and have these buffoons falling all over themselves for it, AGAIN.
It's funny because they went from energizing the base to pandering to moderates over the course of the convention

Felix has been dancing hard lately trying to fill the crater left by Matt's absence in the podcast.
I love that felix makes a kojima analogy in every episode

Anand wrote a book about how billionaires were a problem, and I do agree with that. He was doing a good job making the argument on talk shows.
Capitalism is the bigger problem.

@@WithoutRemorse12 I think guys like that should be co-opted by the left instead of rejected for not being concise or radical enough
@@lockstock600I doubt he’s “in the pocket” for her, this seems like the natural progression for a Warren supporter

Anyone who cares about being on MSNBC should never be taken seriously

Believe it or not, you butchered Anand's first name too
7:37 Darmok and Jalad, at Tenagra
I liked the penthouse stories in the letter section of the magazine.
When you guys are reading this, it really sounds like Thomas Friedman. Like a guy who is purposefully trying to emulate Thomas Friedman.
This is almost worse than anything meghan ever wrote

knew there was something about him i didnt like. once youre in those circles you become like them. warren guy? pathetic
he was a good guy once upon a time, his interview with trevor noah proves it.... but yeah, it looks like They got him.

There are plenty of people who have their own thoughts and opinions, but those people aren't allowed on TV

When is Matt coming back?
Mr. President, we cannot allow a ball cap gap!

The Brats are making the Maverick turn in his grave.
16:05 yup
Broads on the Left lmao
Chapo is still going strong
We love our big beautiful boys, don't we folks?
They need Matt or Virgil to understand politics
We must stay loyal to our chapo… don’t we folks!?!?
He has no business wearing a leather jacket.
Hahaha! That's funny.

I'm pretty sure Will has a rant where he scolds the Democrats for not creating a narrative and being too focused on "plans."
This "story telling" garbage is what he asked for.
How did you listen to this and come away thinking that their criticism was “storytelling is bad strategy”?
No, dummy, he never ranted about the need for neoliberal storytelling.
Sounds like you're misrepresenting Will's arguments. IDK which rant you could be referencjng, but I imagine it's one of two things (or both).
(1) criticism of neoliberal technocracy
(2) always talk of plans but never any actual delivery of results
@@dirrdevil I think it's in their pod darn america video. What they were talking about was that fact checking maga theories is futile.
@dirrdevil I'm not misreprenting shit. He's just being contrarian here because after Matt left this podcast lost it's brain.
First
its 2024
Goddamn this show sucks now.. oh well, it’s not like I ever paid for it.
It’s insanely bad without matt
God, Felix is so unfunny
