Settler Colonialism Isnt What You Think It Is - Foreign Policy (No
paywall)

Settler colonialism, Kirsch argues, is best understood “not as a
historical concept but as an ideology, whose growing popularity among
educated young Americans is already having significant political
effects.” Their embrace of the term may be driven by idealism and
good intentions, he contends, but it leads people “into morally
disastrous territory.”

In July, 2016, at the Democratic National Convention, in Philadelphia,
Senator Chuck Schumer was asked whether he thought that, in the coming

in states like Pennsylvania might benefit Donald Trump. Schumer

The End of Denial - Intelligencer (No paywall)

The more camouflage Harris-Walz trucker hats I saw around Brooklyn,
the greater my sense of foreboding. Courting disaster, I texted a
colleague, half-joking, as I walked to my Fort Greene polling site on

exclusively by people who didnt match that description. They reminded
me of the Big Buck Hunter arcade game at a bar near the campus of my
elite college, which lent wry authenticity to the setting and whose
plastic rifles were the only kind most of us had any interest in
handling. I wondered if some of the hat wearers were in on the joke or
simply liked the aesthetic. But some of these people looked sincere,
as though they felt the hats really reflected the campaigns resonance
with regular folks.

Prediction: These 2 Stocks Will Be Worth More Than Tesla in the Next 5
Years
[[link removed]}&lead=419599&emailid=95455&nl=daily]
Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA) is currently the eighth-largest company in the
world with a market cap of just over $1.05 trillion as of this
writing. The results of the U.S. elections have helped drive Tesla's
share price higher, thanks to the belief that CEO Elon Musk's close
relationship with President-Elect Donald Trump could benefit the
electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer during the new administration.
Tesla stock's underperformance through most of 2024 can be attributed
to growing competition that's bringing down its delivery numbers, as
well as the company's failure to impress investors with the recent
