Humans cause problems, but we can also fix them. There is no lurking evil, just economic imperatives that we often resign ourselves to. The seemingly existential challenges of the modern world are at root tractable. Review of @itspeterbrown’s Wild Robot. damagemag.com/2025/07/09/wil…

.@itspeterbrown's Wild Robot series transcends the anti-humanist moralism of much contemporary children’s literature and presents a much-needed vision of a habitable future. damagemag.com/2025/07/09/wil…

My review of "Karl Marx in America" by @HartmanAndrew. For @damagemag damagemag.com/2025/07/07/mar…

America is where Marxism and socialism go to die. So goes a long running bit of folk wisdom, embraced by many a leftist, liberal, and conservative alike. Karl Marx in America challenges this view. @MattPolProf damagemag.com/2025/07/07/mar…
