I chose a college and classes though that reminded me about the many atrocities that brought us here and the impact they have had on our system of laws, how they are applied, and where wealth got allocated. Who got left out of the #NewDeal, #RedLining what the Treaty of #GuadalupeHidalgo promised.

Not a well known book; it should be. If you've encountered well-entrenched MAGATs trying to prevent resources reaching the people (even their own base) this memoir from the early days of the #NewDeal will seem eerily familiar. ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ >>

#Paleoconservatism 's concerns overlap with those of the O#ldRight (which opposed the #NewDeal in the 1930s and 1940s) as well as with #PaleoLibertarianism.

As ICE adopt electric shock gloves to hurt and humiliate their victims, let us all remember these impoverished migrants from the USA's not so distant past, sense a common humanity, and reject the cruelty of the Trump administration.

#DemocraticSocialism Is the Compromise Position
Given our scale of #inequality, the #egalitarian reforms of democratic socialism are only the start of what we should strive for.
Kyle Schmidlin, Jul 31, 2026
Excerpt: "Reforming the #SecondGildedAge
"Whether or not one agrees with such ideas, it’s a discussion that free people are within their rights to have. Though we often treat #capitalism as a national religion, there’s nothing sacred about it. Even the US Constitution is surprisingly agnostic on questions of economic organization. It’s not encoded in our DNA—in fact, we are much more naturally inclined toward cooperation than competition. Humans have a virtually infinite number of ways we can arrange society, and we are in desperate need of rethinking ours.
"Because for the last few decades, the American economy has grown ever more off-balance, to the point where many analysts now say we’re in a second #GildedAge. We recently minted the world’s first trillionaire, while about half of us would be wiped out by any major illness, accident, or job loss. Workers have lost power, essentials like housing and healthcare are increasingly out of reach, and practically all the gains of our productivity have been accumulated at the very top, with #corporations posting record profits. #Billionaires are multiplying their wealth faster than ever, building anti-revolution doomsday bunkers, and plotting to rule their own fiefdoms as #CEOKings.
"We live in a society that’s obsessed with law and order for things like #shoplifting or overstaying a visa, but largely looks the other way on #CorporateCrimes like #pollution, #WageTheft, and #fraud—not to mention #WarCrimes and #genocide. The president is a convicted felon who wants you to ignore his decades-long friendship with a child sex trafficker and instead fear and hate the immigrant next door.
"In such a system, elites should feel relieved that people are only demanding, say, a few public options for groceries, rather than revolting. The wealthy surely all took note of the public reaction to #LuigiMangione, who is accused of murdering United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson on the streets of New York City. Mangione became a cultural icon who was openly celebrated in many circles, making clear the rage simmering within America’s dispossessed.
"There’s a reason the progressive California Rep. #RoKhanna refers to a tax on wealth as an #AntiRevolution tax, or an attempt to save capitalism from itself. Progressive Democrats like Khanna often mediate between capitalist centers of power and the party’s left-wing base, who largely feel fed up with the party’s incremental approach of making small tweaks here and there. Democratic socialism, as practiced in today’s America, is still essentially incrementalism, but they’re much bigger increments.
"Such a model works well in places like #Finland, #Iceland, and #Denmark. These countries have high taxes, but they get far more out of them than we do. As a result they are consistently ranked as the happiest countries on Earth, with excellent numbers for education, homelessness, poverty, healthcare, life expectancy, and infant mortality—all areas in which the US, with its profit-first approach to every problem, is lagging behind.
"#HighTaxes and a mixed economy also once worked well in the #UnitedStates. We dug ourselves out of the #GreatDepression with the #NewDeal. Government programs brought electricity to rural areas and established safety nets and Social Security. Our middle class boomed after World War II, when taxes were the highest they’ve ever been.
"#Republicans and #BigBusiness called that #socialism, too. They even conspired to overthrow President Franklin D. Roosevelt. Now, faced with another socialist menace, they’re playing just as dirty."

We don't stand for "recessions" any more.
If necessary we will provide a newer, bigger New Deal.

Ireland's Basic Income scheme is ok as far as it goes but one problem with it is that you somehow have to be an "accredited" artist in some way. So there's paperwork involved and probably some NGO/QUANGO. Someone in my feed recently went as far as calling it "artwashing." Sorry, I've forgotten who and I'd just rather write this than do the search thing right now.
I know it's often said that we should Universal basic income, and I agree with that. But I'm also thinking, atm, that we should have a similar basic income scheme for supporting open source developers. And it shouldn't come with a prerequisite of belonging to a developers' body and/or getting the right accreditation.

I've got a new post up on Substack about attempts to save the Wilbur G. Cohen building in Washington, DC--constructed to memorialize Social Security and New Deal-era art (funded by the National Recovery Administration) from potential "accelerated disposal" by the current Administration (you-know-who). https://

In 1941, Sabine Farms homesteaders near Marshall, TX did something pragmatic and quietly radical: they collectively contracted with Dr. A.O. Lee for medical care. Pooling resources for a Black physician in Jim Crow Texas meant building a parallel system of survival outside hostile institutions. The community didn't wait for access — they organized it. #TexasHistory #BlackHistory #NewDeal #MarshallTexas

🧵 1/6
I was sitting in an Austin Starbucks last weekend, absorbed in the recently published "New Deal Art: Culture and Crisis in the Great Depression" by John P. Murphy.
"Hello." A smiling man was standing by my table. "I'm the author of the book you're reading."
What a delightful coincidence! We sat together and chatted for a while about the book, the thirties, and the exhibition of American modernist art at the UT Blanton Museum where he was going to be giving a talk.
Even though I was already planning to post a few thoughts on the book, the chance meeting has provided me with additional impetus.

Jared French -- Cavalrymen Crossing a River -- 1939.
>> French's central mural for the Parcel Post Building in Richmond, Virginia, is now displayed at the Lewis F. Powell Jr. United States Courthouse. "Life" magazine reported that French painted himself into the mural as the figure wearing suspenders.<<
I find it fascinating to see the implicit but powerful eroticism at work in a 1930s New Deal art commission.

@SmithsonianRoulette "Frances Perkins, FDR’s Secretary of Labor and the first woman to serve as a cabinet secretary, was the driving force behind the New Deal, credited with formulating policies to shore up the national economy following the nation’s most serious economic crisis and helping to create the modern middle class."

A quotation from Franklin Roosevelt
We understand the philosophy of those who offer resistance, of those who conduct a counter offensive against the American people’s march of social progress. It is not an opposition which comes necessarily from wickedness — it is an opposition that comes from subconscious resistance to any measure that disturbs the position of privilege.
It is an unfortunate human failing that a full pocketbook often groans more loudly than an empty stomach.Franklin Delano Roosevelt (1882–1945) American lawyer, politician, statesman, US President (1933–1945)
Speech (1940-11-01), Campaign Address, Brooklyn Academy of Music, New YorkMore about this quote: wist.info/roosevelt-franklin-d…
