That’s heartland conjugated in the minds of an out of touch media.
 
You can get a Latte anywhere. Farmers know genetics. The entire US has Wifi & indoor plumbing. Not just Brooklyn & DuPont Circle.

|content=This is everywhere. The DNC is like an incompetent retiring substitute civics teacher who long ago mentally checked out, but still condescendingly lectures the smartest kids on wrong facts. Trump, the 3rd grade teacher next door passing out Jell-O shots calling them “study aids.”

|content=I didn't vote for Trump in '16, but am seriously considering doing so this year.
 
My reasoning is mostly about what you might call "teaching the bureaucracy/media a lesson".  There's lots to dislike about Trump, but more to dislike about the institutional response to Trump.

|content=But, yes, he should resign. I thought that would go without saying. And no, he didn’t do everything wrong. Neither did Pelosi. Nor the Mayor of NYC. But the whole lot of them need to leave. It is now a different era.
 
This class of leaders has been measured.
 
And found wanting.

|content=People don’t understand my position on Trump. Here it is:
 
Trump owns his critics other than me. Why? Because he says so much crazy stuff mixed in with real stuff that it is a lifetime commitment to correct him. So I decided to simply state that I view him as an existential risk.

It’s just endless bait, both boring and transparent. Like Lucy and the football. And it doesn’t stop for life and death. It’s to the bone.

|content=Bari Weiss has now resigned from the @nytimes. And that is not even “The Story”. I‘ve just spoken to Bari &amp; learned that I‘m finally free to tweet.
 
Her letter hints at the real News: the *loss* of the News is now *the* News, and the News cannot cover it.

|content=On 6/1/17 Ms Weiss was the only journalist covering “The News”.
Only she was doing it from the opinion section because the NYT refused to find interesting that there was a racist Maoist insurrection at a public college where police would be stood down:

The only real argument for Biden is Trump/Pence and the RNC. By the same token, the only real argument for Trump is Biden/Harris and the DNC.
 
We Dems are re-electing Trump.

I just want to be clear about something: @realDonaldTrump is an *unacceptable* risk to take for merely breaking an evil SJW Overton window.

5:24 AM · Aug 27, 2016

Eric Weinstein

As Hillary is not listening, it's understandable many of you will vote Trump. I see his risk as existential. Please respect me as I do you.

I cannot seem to convey to fellow @HillaryClinton voters that painting all Trump voters as racist misogynistic idiots is offensive & wrong.

I assume journalism was once a thing that was crowded out by the thing now confusingly called journalism. It's time for us to reinvent it.

I don't think this is a massive shock to people who were thinking for themselves. It's a shock to anyone who outsourced to CNN/FOX/NYT/NPR.

@christinelu I'm feeling some pain & fear too. But many of my friends didn't take this seriously ... b/c they demonized those who disagreed.

@cosmos4u I think a lot of folks lied to themselves. Many got to the polling station thinking they would vote for HRC.... until in private.

Here's the silver lining. The same dumb analysis that told you Hillary was going to win is what told you Trump-nation is neo-nazi skinheads.

36 years of variation on a theme by Ronald W Reagan. Today, at 51, I'll go back to beginners' mind. History is restarting.

As of today, my stance readjusts. Put simply:

Cooperation everywhere possible. Vigilance wherever necessary.

@wobbles That I had no idea what the DJT payload would be b/c the campaign was a kayfabe work & trolling of PC. Now we're playing for keeps.

1st Tweet of the Trump era: It's time for we the technical classes (e.g. PhDs) to stop lying for our former institutional masters on policy.

2nd Tweet of the Trump era: We the technical classes must not begin lying to the new masters of our institutions to flatter their populism.

At some point, Pres. Trump will have to choose between high ability, totally loyalty & full staffing of our government. He can pick any two.

Eric Weinstein

When I saw this sign in SF’s Castro district, I thought of my friend @SamHarrisOrg and my struggle to explain to him in early 2017 why people trust @realDonaldTrump when he is not truthful.

Trump is like the guy who added the last line on the sign when Clinton & Bush would not.

7:10 PM · Oct 31, 2018
Eric profile picture.jpg
Eric Weinstein

Trump’s style of metahonesty is however very dangerous. I wrote about this in a 2011 essay I frequently reference on the theory of Kayfabe which I anticipated would take over as boomers were forced to deal w/ the cognitive aftermath of the Great Recession: https://www.edge.org/response-detail/11783

So go vote America. All I ask, is that when given any opportunity to do so, use it to reject Utopianism on Right or Left. What we were given as custodians is so much better than moronic utopian experiments that always end in dystopia. Let's not mess this up. #lovethisgreatcountry

You just love this, don’t you? People are dead. Homes torched. The state is on fire. The air here is choked with smoke.

So this. Because, nobody else gets why this works?

I mean, I get it. But whatever you got for this, isn’t worth it. There’s no prize worth winning this way.

Eric profile picture.jpg
Eric Weinstein

@SquawkieEagle Thx. This president says many things that *do* need to be said, but in ways that are opportunistic, simplistic, cruel, distorted, insensitive, incendiary and hyperbolic. Some are angry that he’s a bad liar, but I often think he’s really at his absolute worst as a truth teller.

6:46 AM · Nov 11, 2018
Eric profile picture.jpg
Eric Weinstein

@Ramsey_Payne I don’t think he loves the tragedy. I think he loves the fact that *if* there is a tragedy, *then* he can exploit it. He does this by telling a mixture of simplistic lies and truths together, and sticking it to his adversaries who don’t expect it because it’s such a dick move.

2019[edit]

Eric profile picture.jpg
Eric Weinstein

I think I avoided all pressure to find Trump guilty of collusion w Russia. And it was a considerable cost on my life. The typical conversation went: “Oh c’mon Eric. He’s clearly guilty. Why make excuses? When the report comes you‘ll have to look in the mirror.”

I want apologies.

12:16 PM · Mar 25, 2019
Eric profile picture.jpg
Eric Weinstein

It wasn’t (and still isn’t) that I knew. I had no idea. But I also had no idea how everyone else just somehow knew what was actually true. Did everyone have a dossier that I did not? How does this pressure to *infer* unknown things become a Left-of-center mind virus?

Let’s stop.

12:16 PM · Mar 25, 2019
Eric profile picture.jpg
Eric Weinstein

And one last thing: I’m still of the opinion that Trump is a grave problem & that the people who voted him in deserve a responsible Left of center expression for their real frustrations on Trade, Immigration, Terror and elite betrayal to replace Trump w something more wholesome.

12:26 PM · Mar 25, 2019
Eric profile picture.jpg
Eric Weinstein

So please remember that many people on the Left did *not* ever sign up for this idee fixe of the Mueller report as answer to the Trump phenomena. We‘ve not called his presidency illegitimate. And we don’t think his supporters are all nuts. This is a democracy, betrayed by elites.

12:26 PM · Mar 25, 2019


Eric profile picture.jpg
Eric Weinstein

I will be coming back to this old tweet repeatedly. A plan to reassert narrative control before 2020 was evident immediately after Trump’s win shocked our institutional elite. “Fake news” was its placeholder buying time to figure out how to end rivals to “authoritative sources.”

2:51 PM · Sep 5, 2019

It would appear we are being psychologically prepared for a change in the algorithms that direct our attention.

4:20 AM · Nov 29, 2016

Eric Weinstein

Since then we have learned about “The Good Censor” and “ML Fairness” at google, “Deboosting” at Facebook, “down ranking” at Twitter, “authoritative sources” at YouTube, the “Alternative Influencer Network” theory at @datasociety, & the IDW as a gateway to white supremacists. Ha.

3:03 PM · Sep 5, 2019
Eric profile picture.jpg
Eric Weinstein

I’d say that old tweet wasn’t too far off after all. We just had it dribbled in increment by increment with changes in “Terms of Service” & the slow crushing push to numb our outrage from our institutional class, article by article, until we welcomed our own censorship w/ thanks.

Trump Tweeting algorithm:

It seems [perseverated diminishing epithet] [First name][Last Name] is [anti-trump misportrayal or activity claim] again despite my [claimed Trump accomplishment]. (S)He really should worry about [corruption insinuation]. [Threat]. [Tiny simple zinger!]

The president’s tweets are there to be reverse engineered. They’re all method. When Democrats call him an ‘idiot’ w/o building an Eliza program to simulate what is beating them, it‘s painful to watch.

Why not claim that the person beating you at chess is an idiot?Think about it.

Invited on a conservative podcast today. We celebrated punk rock as I politilely told them Trump was obviously manifestly unfit for office & I view their parent org as a propaganda arm of the Republican Party. They couldn’t have been more decent to me.

This is how they may win.

My eyes are open. This isn’t my team. But when normal souls who think normal thoughts have to go over to their competitor’s house to have civil constructive discussion, because their own home often hurls poop at any who won’t tow an incoherent party line, loss has to be budgeted.

11:06 PM · Nov 14, 2019
Eric profile picture.jpg
Eric Weinstein

Don’t get sold the narrative that Trump now owns ALL US Conservatism. He does own a good chunk of it. But there‘s also a new strain of tolerant conservatism that‘s very liberal: relentlessly civil, anti-inequality, pro-logic, pro-gay, pro-weed, pro-free speech & multicultural.

11:06 PM · Nov 14, 2019
Eric profile picture.jpg
Eric Weinstein

What is causing this? I don’t know.

But one partial explanation is that many normal adults made to feel like pariahs are leaving the Democratic Party & simply taking their liberal values across the street. It’s like visiting a Little Italy, Koreatown or other diaspora community.

11:06 PM · Nov 14, 2019
Eric profile picture.jpg
Eric Weinstein

@AlexRussek It’s more confusing than that. I can’t fully figure out how they rationalize Trump. They often have the idea that Trump’s methods are wrong but that they think be does the right thing in the end. I honestly don’t get it. I think that it’s rationalizing lesser evil as they see it.

11:16 PM · Nov 14, 2019


Eric profile picture.jpg
Eric Weinstein

As someone who both has been vocal that Trump is unfit for office but who also gets on well with many Trump supporters, I’m not afflicted by Trump derangement syndrome.

Today seems to be the day that should begin an exit for fair minded Trump supporters.

To my Trump supporting friends, many of you have been correct about myriad problems of the Democratic Party & its affiliated media. Let that not blind you to what is happening. This man was simply not the solution to our corrupt system. Love you. But look again with fresh eyes.🙏

5:43 PM · Nov 20, 2019
Eric profile picture.jpg
Eric Weinstein

If you think I’m wrong, I’m open to your arguments. But let’s check in with each other after any counter-narrative emerges.

I was open to the idea that these hearings would be purely political.

I hope you will be open to the idea that this is actually damning.

5:48 PM · Nov 20, 2019


Eric profile picture.jpg
Eric Weinstein

To be honest, I should have been clearer. Let me say a few words.

By Trump supporters, I was referring to folks for whom Trump is close to a force of pure good. This goes way beyond lesser or necessary evil perspectives. So I should have been clear about absolute v relative. https://x.com/keithbrodie/status/1197282556120453120

4:41 PM · Nov 21, 2019
Eric profile picture.jpg
Eric Weinstein

Next, I was careful not to opine on legality or impeachment. The way I’m viewing these hearings is that they are giving us a look into our foreign policy. Legality is about what we can prove, but judgement is about what we must glean. I wish we could avoid inference but we can’t.

4:42 PM · Nov 21, 2019
Eric profile picture.jpg
Eric Weinstein

What I glean about the Trump, Clinton and Biden groups is that they pursue the personal intertwined w/ our national issues at an unacceptable level. I can’t prove that about any of them yet. But Carter, Eisenhower, Reagan or Sanders they are not. So I should have clarified.

4:42 PM · Nov 21, 2019
Eric profile picture.jpg
Eric Weinstein

If you want a perspective that is not so far off of mine but from a conservative perspective, @benshapiro made a lot of my points in detail. It’s not “quid pro quo or no” but which one, and the fact that Biden may be the point of investigation or a positive political externality.

4:42 PM · Nov 21, 2019
Eric profile picture.jpg
Eric Weinstein

But my issue stands. We’re now being injured as a nation by Trump’s judgment, tactics and quirks. If we are reduced to “That’s perfectly legal” arguments rather than, “we have China, Climate and Russia emergencies” by Trump and Democratic dissembling we are screwed.

4:42 PM · Nov 21, 2019
Eric profile picture.jpg
Eric Weinstein

Our eye is off the ball & Trump does not become the goddamned messiah b/c he sticks it to corrupt Democratic players. It’s like watching two street gangs fight. Fair-minded Trump supporters should be leaving the absolutist “Trump does nothing wrong” camp now. This is awful.

4:42 PM · Nov 21, 2019
Eric profile picture.jpg
Eric Weinstein

My point in criticizing my party is to find a way out of the Trump v Biden/Warren version of non-stop boomer on boomer action. Trump is an enormous problem. If you think he‘s radiation therapy for your Democratic corruption cancer, don’t fall in love with your radiation levels.🙏

1/ Too Many Different Stories.

Here’s my best guess as to what‘s happening. There was a post-WWII Int’l order. Both US parties agreed to service it. They became systemically corrupt when growth changed in the early/mid ‘70s. This accelerated wildly with the end of the Cold War.

6:38 PM · Nov 22, 2019
Eric profile picture.jpg
Eric Weinstein

2/ The parties & Trump represented systemic & idiosyncratic corruption respectively. Systemic had Rep & Dem flavors. The tattered Int’l order is serviced (barely) by the systemically corrupt but repudiated by the idiosyncratic. The new GOP is moving towards the Idiosyncratic.

6:38 PM · Nov 22, 2019
Eric profile picture.jpg
Eric Weinstein

3/ We are divided by the following. Some party players benefit from the systemic corruption but are loyal to the two party flavors. Remaining party players want to end the corruption. But they agree on the need to service the Int’l order because of dangers of restarting history.

6:38 PM · Nov 22, 2019
Eric profile picture.jpg
Eric Weinstein

4/ The Idiosyncratic players want to use Trump to end systemic corruption (drain the swamp). Some want it so badly that they’ll defend nearly all idiosyncratic corruption. Others admit to idiosyncratic failings but point to the fact that only Trump broke through our MSM defenses.

6:38 PM · Nov 22, 2019
Eric profile picture.jpg
Eric Weinstein

5/ The idiosyncratic players (The “Trump Train”) are further divided as to whether the Int’l order is too corrupt & expensive to service or too essential to abandon. The former are divided into isolationists vs those who wish to project new power. The latter subvert withdrawal.

6:38 PM · Nov 22, 2019
Eric profile picture.jpg
Eric Weinstein

6/ Why the crisis in communal sense making? We are now micro-divided by pro vs anti systemic rent-seekers with 2 flavors. Anti is further split by pro vs anti willingness to admit to the idiosyncratic corruption. We are divided by isolationists vs maintainers of the order. Etc...

6:38 PM · Nov 22, 2019
Eric profile picture.jpg
Eric Weinstein

7/ Where I am: I see 2 party flavors of systemic corruption. And the new idiosyncratic. I see corrupt expensive foreign entanglements but also no ability to retreat. I also believe great nations are based on communal *fictions* which are being destroyed by our extractive actors.

6:38 PM · Nov 22, 2019
Eric profile picture.jpg
Eric Weinstein

8/ This is where we are to my understanding. I *only* really look down on *pro*-corruption folks. I do fear the isolationists have no idea what they’re signing us up for on a thermonuclear planet, but I just see them as confused by BAD foreign adventures & betting the 🌍 on luck.

6:38 PM · Nov 22, 2019
Eric profile picture.jpg
Eric Weinstein

End/ So I have the group I look down on (Systemic corruption of the party regulars) different from the group to be feared (advocates of abandonment of the corrupt system to restart history).

The folks w whom I get along now have no home: those who get we have to fix ALL this. 🙏

Thirty four years ago, the liberal paper of the University of Pennsylvania was celebrating “the largest single gift ever received by an undergraduate school” in a banner headline..which I discovered going through boxes after a move.

Odd he would become the right wing devil, no?

We can barely remember how many different people Donald Trump has been to our press in their portrayals: Winner. Star. Loser. Nazi. Greedy pig. Casanova. Generous benefactor. Predator. Symbol of wealthy. Purveyor of tackiness. Promoter of women. Madman. Genius. Debtor. Builder.

[My point about the different faces of Trump portrayed by the Press was real, but I think the article was a gag if I recall correctly. I’d read it for yourself...]

My following is mostly millennial. I have a lot of contact w/ them.

As a result I know something I wouldn’t know otherwise: many, if not all, of them don’t relate to what we call being millennial. They want to be full adults & are not finding paths to becoming full stakeholders.

5:53 PM · Dec 3, 2019

The oldest of these Millennials are now almost 40. In my original area of academe and science, it is time for GenX & Millennials to stop running out of fuel in infinite holding patterns. We should start ignoring air traffic control & land the planes. Crash landing if necessary.

5:53 PM · Dec 3, 2019

Eric Weinstein

Here’s the problem. It‘s time for Millenials to start becoming univ. presidents. Yet only a tiny number of research universities even have any GenX heads! Likewise, notice that Millenial @TulsiGabbard & Xer AndrewYang surge, but are dropped from corporate media promoting Boomers.

5:53 PM · Dec 3, 2019

Q: Should we start talking about bringing back Mandatory Retirement to stop involuntary inter-generational wealth transfer? Consider that we will have spent 20 Yrs exploring US presidents born in the summer of the 1st year of the baby boom. 24 if Trump (b. 1946) is re-elected.

5:53 PM · Dec 3, 2019
Eric profile picture.jpg
Eric Weinstein

Since Trump, Clinton & Bush were at the beginning of the Baby Boom, It is theoretically possible (though it won’t happen this way) that if we continued this pattern, it could be 2044 before we were ready to elect a GenX or Millenial or GenZ POTUS.

Yet we don’t talk about this.

5:53 PM · Dec 3, 2019
Eric profile picture.jpg
Eric Weinstein

I think since @AndrewYang got deliberately and repeatedly dropped from media graphics and since @HillaryClinton started targeting @TulsiGabbard I’ve been radicalized.

It is not intergenerational warfare to tell grandma to get her finger off the scales of democracy and economics.

5:53 PM · Dec 3, 2019
Eric profile picture.jpg
Eric Weinstein

Q: Why are we not talking about bringing back mandatory retirement for academicians who have prevented two generations from taking their seats and talking about legal action against corporate media like @MSNBC who distort the news of our non boomer candidates gaining traction?🙏

There is no path to voting Trump out of office that passes through a contempt for working Americans.

And by the way, you educated coastals can get a latte with coal mining families in Appalachia:

Food City 50,
Morton Blvd,

I didn't vote for Trump in '16, but am seriously considering doing so this year.

My reasoning is mostly about what you might call "teaching the bureaucracy/media a lesson". There's lots to dislike about Trump, but more to dislike about the institutional response to Trump.

People don’t understand my position on Trump. Here it is:

Trump owns his critics other than me. Why? Because he says so much crazy stuff mixed in with real stuff that it is a lifetime commitment to correct him. So I decided to simply state that I view him as an existential risk.

This way:

A) I am not picking up after him intellectually every two minutes.

B) I’m not forced to pretend that everything he does is wrong just because he did it.

C) I can continue to be friends with his supporters.

D) I’m clear that he should not be our commander in chief.

But this confuses people: “why don’t you denounce everything he says and does wrong every day?”

Bari Weiss has now resigned from the @nytimes. And that is not even “The Story”. I‘ve just spoken to Bari & learned that I‘m finally free to tweet.

Her letter hints at the real News: the *loss* of the News is now *the* News, and the News cannot cover it.

https://www.bariweiss.com/resignation-letter

5:59 PM · Jul 14, 2020
Eric profile picture.jpg
Eric Weinstein

On 6/1/17 Ms Weiss was the only journalist covering “The News”. Only she was doing it from the opinion section because the NYT refused to find interesting that there was a racist Maoist insurrection at a public college where police would be stood down: https://www.nytimes.com/2017/06/01/opinion/when-the-left-turns-on-its-own.amp.html

5:59 PM · Jul 14, 2020

At that moment Bari Weiss became all that was left of the “Paper of Record.” Why? Because the existence of Black Racists with the power to hunt professors with Baseball Bats and even redefine the word ‘racism’ to make their story impossible to cover ran totally counter-narrative.

5:59 PM · Jul 14, 2020

At some point after 2011, the NYT gradually stopped covering the News and became the News instead. And Bari has been fighting internally from the opinion section to re-establish Journalism inside tbe the NYT. A total reversal of the Chinese Wall that separates news from opinion.

Before Bari resigned, I did a podcast with her. It was chilling. I‘d make an innocuous statement of simple fact and ask her about it. She‘d reply “That is obviously true but I’m sorry we can’t say that here. It will get me strung up.” That‘s when I stopped telling her to hang on.

Most normal citizens want the US to have borders. We care more about our fellow countrymen than we do equally deserving foreigners. We want the BEST for our own kids. We aren’t excited about paying reparations for 1619. And Trump is telling us “Same here.” So: What are we saying?

The Left needs to appeal to folks who want to get rich, not be taxed into oblivion, get laid and who LOVE their flawed country, their guns & those in uniform. We have to stop appealing *only* to self-hating monks, the hyper-manipulative & the dumb. We were about something before.

In Trump you are looking at the only modern POTUS to have figured out how to run this gauntlet from an outsider’s perspective with neither political nor even military experience.

Don’t hate so much you can’t admit that he pulled off the nearly impossible. He’s *quite* skilled.
