“As shocking as it was, there was also something about last week’s election that felt sickeningly obvious and familiar, like a violent flare-up of a chronic malaise that has plagued our reality for more than a year now. On a certain level, that is to say, watching Kamala Harris lose felt like watching the latest installment in a great Oligarch Purge that started last October and swallowed everyone from Hollywood actresses to an NFL coach to a volunteer Santa Claus who pushed back too aggressively on a Likudnik rabbi’s talking points in a Hamptons community forum on the history of Israel and Palestine. Many of the purge’s casualties were honorable Americans whose revulsion toward the genocide of the Palestinian people had professional costs.” [editor’s note: I guess this pundit thinks “cabal” is defined as “self-destructive idiocy” – SAT] (11/11/24)
