"When a single billionaire can accumulate more money in 10 seconds than their employees make in one year, while workers struggle to meet the basic cost of rent and medicine, then yes, every billionaire really is a policy failure."

@lilithsaintcrow Teen Vogue has better political commentary than Jacobin, change my mind
@redsad @lilithsaintcrow Jacobin is a tankie rag.
@dalias @redsad @lilithsaintcrow It's been years since I looked at it, but when I rejected it, it wasn't so much tankies, as class reductionist social democrats.
@foolishowl @redsad @lilithsaintcrow Yeah. I just tried some searches for Blumenthal influence and turned up less than I recalled. But I've seen lots of really bad takes in Jacobin over the years.
@dalias @redsad @lilithsaintcrow Oh yeah, it's been awful overall.
I mostly associate it with the right wing in DSA, after the faction fights I went through there.
