It's great to see Steve Jobs billionaire widow, who owns the Atlantic, bravely assign progressives as what ails the lack of affordable housing, education, public transportation, skilled workforce, unending outsourcing, threadbare management as what stands in the way of a better resources and supported public, instead of the single unifying thing that actually did tear those all down which was the concentration of extreme wealth through unregulated capitalism, of which she is a ridiculously sad example.
Super brave to print this with a fascism ascendent. You could almost wonder if there were financial motivations to align with current policy. The Atlantic was also unilaterally pro-Israel with an Israeli editor. Almost feels like the press may be somewhat bought and biased?
Where does state-run media fall on The Atlantic's list of concerns? Or Jeff Bezos' Washington Post?
