[@jamesburgess2k]

Don't go to war against abstract ideas or things, because you can't actually defeat it, as with a place or person. There's never an end goal, because its impossible to fully eradicate something so broad as drugs or poverty because it will always happen, so your goal should be to reduce it, not eradicate. That's why you can't win

For those of you who may be interested, the majority of John's references to Eric Foner derive from Foner's critically-acclaimed book _The Story of American Freedom_ (1998). It explores American history through the lens of changing concepts of freedom over time - and how these concepts manifest within the eras of American history that furnished them.

I was born in the 1980s, but what I wouldn't give to witness in my lifetime another decade even half as aggressively progressive as the 1960s. Huge leaps forward in technology and economic growth. The highest real minimum wage America has ever known, the lowest unemployment rate, and the least top-heavy distribution of income seen in at least the past 100 years. A dramatic plunge in the poverty rate. The Warren Court's "Rights Revolution." The sexual liberation movement, civil rights, women's rights, gay equality, Medicare, Medicaid, food stamps and consumer activism!

It's also a little disappointing to hear him use the word "gay" as a shorthand for all non-cisgendered, non-binary, and/or non-heterosexual people; most obviously the word excludes trans folks and asexuals.

8:07 That’s not exactly true. Students were only able to avoid the war until they graduated. Once they graduated, they were immediately made eligible for the draft once more, and they were immediately drafted unless they had a backup plan for how to get out of it. This was further amplified by the fact that in 1968, the Johnson administration abolished student deferments for graduate school. So it’s not really fair to say that students were at zero risk of having to go to the war themselves. Because they definitely were.
