What Jacob Falkovich actually said

  1. Jacob Falkovich Writer of the blog Putanumonit and the newsletter Second Person
    High rung thinking will almost always land on "centrist" position because it acknowledges tradeoffs, or on non-politicized positions because it's not beholden to supporting either of the two parties in a zero-sum game. It's not a coincidence that the political square is a triangle.
