Oddbean new post about login | logout I do wonder if Kevin McCarthy is self-aware enough to be reflecting on his choices, and the consequences of those choices, in how he was treating people and how they later treated him. Pretty much every world religion has some variation on “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” Indian religions have the concept of “karma” ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karma ). If you treat people poorly, it should be no surprise at all that they treat you poorly in return. 🙁 https://www.businessinsider.com/kevin-mccarthy-lost-speakership-cbs-interview-angered-democrats-votes-2023-10?op=1
