2021-03-20 11:36:37 +0000 UTC View PostWelcome to my ongoing series Monster Men where I talk about why we tell monster stories and what they mean.

Once I have a clearer picture of what the effect will be, I'll pos...

This is more or less the approach that Disco Elysium takes to leftism. There aren't easy answers, or if there are answers, easy or not, we don't have them, and sometimes the best thing you can do is just rea...
