I think this really has legs, because it is a succinct & at this point universally-recognized marker for an emergent - at least in terms of modern broad public awareness - socio-political entity that's virtually impossible to ignore.

all the self-awareness of a dog licking its own asshole in a public square.

ah, feels just the old messageboards....

"reported."

"reported for reporting."

"reported for reporting a reporter."

Truly sad. And sadly true.

This is sheer microfauna erasure, and it will not stand, I say!!

He's just a Nazi, guys. It's not that hard. He says Nazi shit. He makes Nazi gestures. He believes Nazi beliefs.

He's a Nazi. Very simple. No need to hand-wring or over-explain it.

Yeah, he’d say “but there’s 9 billion trips for CNY” because they count every single leg of every single journey as its own thing. Which is, of course, a bullshit metric. Go figure.

For paid regime shill like Arnaud (& needless to say, the paymasters tugging his leash) it’s not enough that CNY is the largest movement of people… it has to be framed as the “Biggest Ever. Period.”

Which is why he’s carefully framed it as *annual.* because fuck krill & other sea life, amiright?

Marblemouth Homan slurs his words yet again, obviously meaning to say "fuck you."

Whenever reading Sima Qian (much like his contemporary, Herodotus), it's important to remember that, whenever faced with the choice between "Rockin' Morality Tale" & "Accurate History" ... he always took the road that would get him more back-pats.

plus Sima was a staunch Confucian (& so girl-cooties were extra-super gross & destabilizing). Ss, what makes the story? Years upon years of mounting-but-boring provincial shortfalls? Or the kings trying to impress a girl by lighting the Royal Bat-Signal?

There's a clear narrative winner ;)

Crop failures, bizarre weather, poisonous air, floods, droughts, darkened sky - all of nature throw out of balance to demonstrate the gods' displeasure with the dynasty's wrong-turn.

It's all retroactive, of course (& in the case of Sima Qian, but more than 1K yrs)... & tales grow in the telling...

Yeah! It stacks up very well, & aligned with my understanding/interp of the "real" causes of systemic organizational collapse on a national scale. The Zhou's own Mandate's "guidebook" rules that it's not enough for a king to just be immoral or bad, but that Nature Itself must rise against its evil

It's apparently such a know thing about cops just in general that it has its own "industry insider term" in the court system:

Yeah, I’m just pulling off of FB, so take that for the “quality” it is. I just saw “my” section & thought “yeah, that tracks”
