It's just been considered part of a good diet to stay up on this stuff for my whole life, for a host of reasons. As for the "rooting interests" angle, did this dipshit miss the entire Cold War?

Like, totally fine that the world's richest men fly to Davos to talk about what the future shall be allowed to contain, but we proles need to learn to stay in our boxes; peeping over the rim not allowed either Matt Y think may he's one of the big boys but I guarantee the big boys don't

Arguing we shouldn't pay attention to Brazil's elections is like arguing that other countries shouldn't pay attention to ours. It's absurd. There are hundreds of millions of people living there and elections matter.

no

ab-so-fucking-lute-ly

MattY is a ratfucker.

Matty might want to send a Memo to DOD and CIA I am near certain they have odds makers in most elections on the planet when those are part of the process.

his job is to be wrong about things.

I’m going to launch a hugely lucrative career as a pundit with hot takes like “We should pay attention to elections in Brazil and Hungary … but NOT in America.”

Yep. They have been building cross-national networks with the ultimate goal of a far right, patriarchal, racist super oligarchy that can defy any nation's laws at will.

Whenever I have imposter syndrome, I remember people like Yglesias have jobs and managed to build a massive career.

Yes. Like there is a reason Elon keeps posting about Germany, England, Brazil and so on. Orban and Hungary got a ton of extra attention relative to the size and importance of the country with jd Vance going there to campaign for him. Matty refuses to learn anything

its unhealthy to care about other people

Some of us are able to recognize patterns Matty
