Ezra Klein is a right wing demagogue wrapped in a transparent liberal jacket. Fuck right off Klein. Political violence is the result of blessing and acceptance of fast growing mountains of systemic violence. The consent of systemic violence is manufactured by people such as Klein who have supposed credibility. In fact he and folks like him are just schills for the rich and powerful.

I have never figured out what some people see in Ezra Klein's work. What I see is, never a fresh idea, never a bold position, never a question about politics as usual.
