Man this shit makes me so sad for our future. The money train has left the station and I don’t know if enough good people have the will or ability to shut this destructive speed run down.
The train has been running for centuries, it’s just that who is missing it has changed
I include myself in that.
I hope people find value in the things I have built and I assume that my literal skin in the game, in the form of my children and eventual grandchildren, will allow others to identify aligned interests ...
... but don't let your guard down just because that one guy did some nice things.
No matter what his companies builds or accomplishes, those numbers are his legacy.
I've been thinking that industrialization at the end of the enlightenment was not the conclusion of the enlightenment but a stifling that led back into a new dark age where we replaced God and the church with money and business. I only hope we can recognize the system has supplanted the people again.

I'm also curious why you think the magazine is controversial on the left because of the name? What information led you to that conclusion?

The book claims the revolutionaries (The black versions of the Jacobins) in Haiti were more true to the ideals of the French revolution than those in France because human rights extended to all in the former.
So since the magazine isn't named after the Jacobins in France your criticism makes no sense.

As for the controversy of Jacobin ideologically, the magazine typically takes a Marxist standpoint, but not all leftist schools of thought are Marxist.
