Firing Kimmel is impotent and scary. We win by playing those facts against each other

they don't have the capacity to compel obedience by the process of law.

they don't have the capacity to compel obedience by violence.

the only lever by which they can obtain obedience is fear.

do not offer it to them.

This is a very real distillation of why Charles Entertainment Kirk matters so much not just to pigs like Gutfeld but to worms like Ezra Klein. It's quite simple: They've heard of him, so he's real, in a way Hortman, trans people, Black people, immigrants, me, and/or you are not.

I mean...

The basketball dildo affair is honestly one of the most menacing things going on right now. It's portrayed as a joke, but it really has the vibe of raptors testing fences.

I don't think it's ultimately a good trade actually

say what you will about OpenAI, this attitude just shows a tremendous lack of imagination

let me throw some fuel on the fire that is the discourse about boys getting laid!!! current-day manopshere content is not good at getting boys laid and that's an effect of the incentives at play. you cannot build an audience of resentful little virgins if you succeed at helping them to have sex

AI would never replicate this

Excuse me, aren't you forgetting someone?

CONTENT ADVISORY: PLEASE BE WARNED THAT THE DEADLINE FOR ALL POSTS ABOUT "AMERICAN EAGLE" AND "SYDNEY SWEENEY" HAS PASSED. IF YOU ARE FOUND IN VIOLATION YOU WILL BE FINED 1500 CLOUT POINTS AND A LABUBU.

a fundamental problem with the conservative movement is that because they do not know how literally anything works and resent being asked to learn, they see absolutely everything as a conspiracy *they* need to capture and use like the libs obviously are

This is an object lesson in the importance of force and violence in politics. ICE is able to flaunt the law because they're willing to use both. Until members of Congress start showing up with breaching teams and armed security, the law is irrelevant. Just a piece of paper.

I don't think Ian is saying the Democratic Party needs a white paper on how dudes can get their Ds wet, but it is objectively a bad situation that teenage boys googling "how to get girls to like me" are three clicks away from the Turner Diaries

CBS News investigation of Jeffrey Epstein jail video reveals new discrepancies A CBS News investigation found discrepancies between the government's description of the Jeffrey Epstein jail video and what the video shows.

If you've been skeptical about the possibility of a Epstein conspiracy, as I have, I encourage you to read this incredible piece of reporting from CBS.

They present fairly compelling evidence that someone doctored the Epstein jail footage and Trump AGs Bondi and Barr and FBI lied about it.

After 9/11, we successfully transformed the southern border from an ailing region to one that was floated by injecting half of its GDP with DHS funds for CBP and ICE. A major component was convincing Mexicans to police other Mexicans and now they’re all MAGA. I think the money can be very persuasive

Once again we find ourselves laughing at a police state that is unafraid to dangle $50K payment packages in front of anyone desperate enough to take it. Once again, this is how you lock-in an economy to the financial flows of the security state turned against its own population.

Trump has a lot of quislings in the academy and such, but a lot of very powerful institutions simply can't believe what is happening. they stand there like a jacklighted deer going "buhh? guhh?" while MAGA draws a bead on their forehead bsky.app/profile/unav...
