Huh.
There's a page in the English Wikipedia on Spanish profanity.

β€’ their own assumption that political action is orchestrated rather than organic
β€’ their own inability to imagine genuine public dissent

So when an officeholder claims that protestors must be β€œpaid agitators,” it often reflects:
β€’ their own belief that people don’t act without incentives
β€’ their own experience using paid supporters, influencers, or operatives

In psychology, this is sometimes called projection, but in political behavior it’s more specific:
People assume others act from the same incentives, fears, and methods they themselves would use.

🧠 People project their own worldview, tactics, and vulnerabilities onto others. Not because they’re being strategic, but because they literally can’t imagine that other people operate differently than they do.

There HAS to be a way to make this work for good. The first way is to generate some discussion about it. I initially thought you could use them for Witness Glasses - meaning you'd only pull them out if you notice ICE doing something. BUT civilians would still get recorded, too, so that's out.

🚨BREAKING: A Trump-backed, GOP effort to repeal a Utah law that could give Democrats one extra U.S. House seat appears to be unraveling after county officials flagged thousands of potentially invalid and fraudulent petition signatures. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Europe is holding its Epstein creeps accountable. Why can’t we? | Will Bunch Europeans are pushing to hold Jeffrey Epstein's creepy pals, including billionaires like Elon Musk, accountable. The U.S.? Not so much.

"The Epstein class" is a global rot

In Europe, ties to Jeffrey Epstein are ending careers, sparking spy probes, and possibly toppling governments

In America, not so much. How the lack of elite accountability became the tipping point for democracy. My new column www.inquirer.com/opinion/jeff...

Someone should write a book about the digestive system and gut microbiome and title it, "The Rave in Your Guts".

But do you think the same applies to Harry Potter? Certainly the movies. Thats like Buffy. But the novels are 100% Rowling.

The issue of trying to separate the art from the artist to enjoy the art when the artist is dishonorable is vexing. In the case of BtVS, there’s all the actors and everyone else involved that made the show good so it can be appreciated despite Whedon.

Whedon seems to be brilliant at writing movies and TV shows. It’s terrible that he’s apparently an awful human being.

β€˜"Hush" addresses the limits and assets of language and communication and the disruption to society when communication breaks down. The Gentlemen are often counted as some of the series' most frightening villains’

β€˜Only about 17 minutes of dialogue is presented in the entire 44 minutes of "Hush".’ β€˜[It] was the only episode in the entire series to be nominated for an Emmy Award in Outstanding Writing for a Drama Series’

β€œHush” is the best episode of #BtVS.
β€˜After reading critical response to the series in which the dialogue was praised as the most successful aspect of the show, Whedon set out to write an episode almost completely devoid of speech.’

β€œFaith in America has never belonged to one party and it never will,” Interfaith Alliance president and CEO Rev. Paul Brandeis Raushenbush wrote in an email to the Miami Herald. β€œIt’s outrageous for President Trump to claim that only those who support him and his party can be true people of faith.”

From the article: "Faith groups disagree Several faith advocacy groups were quick to denounce the president’s remarks, particularly the divisive tone of his speech at an event that has historically been used to foster unity and promote religious pluralism."

"Not gonna lie" - Oh, thank you. What about everything else you've ever told me?

"If I'm being honest" - what? Well, how would I know if you're being honest or not?

06.02.2026 17:02 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

My opinion:
People should stop using the phrases, "if I'm being honest" and "Not gonna lie". Maybe even, "Honestly" like in, "Honestly, I have no idea." Why? Because those phrases all imply that you're NOT honest all the time.
