Which of these is a "gender ideology"? 🤔

1. You must look and act within the boundaries we dictate for men or for women. It must be one or the other, and you do not get to choose. You must use the boundaries we assign you at birth.

2. You may look and act however you want.

Given their CONSISTENT and DECADES LONG track records, imagining that Putin would ever do something in good faith would be equally as delusional as imagining that the orange convicted felon would ever do something in good faith.

It is only a champagne tariff if it comes from the champagne area of France. Otherwise it's just a sparklingly stupid economic policy.

President Musk: Apples are actually oranges! This is massive fraud! Fruit sellers should be thrown in jail!

Normal people: That's a lie, and I'm worried Musk may actually have gone a bit insane!

Maga cultists: You are deranged! Musk is a genius, and he has access to information you don't have!!!

They want us to believe that a guy calling to lock up journalists is a sane person who cares about our laws and would never do anything harmful to our country.

That has been the entire premise of the AI company I and five colleagues founded in 1998.

Elon Musk's dream is to replace the deep state with his shallow state.

If maga were creating a football team, it would be 11 straight white male Christian quarterbacks playing both offense and defense, and doing the kicking. A Fox News host would be the coach.

In the first term it was "Fake = Anything I don't like".

In the second term it is "Fraud = Any funding stream I don't like" and "Corruption = Any laws or policy I don't like".

It's literally straight out of the George Orwell playbook.

Mitch McConnell was the only Republican senator to vote against Tulsi Gabbard. This will be entered into the encyclopedia of American history under "Too little, too late."

I want you to notice that they are calling any policy they don't like "fraud" while giving their blind devotion to a man who has literally been convicted for and found liable for ACTUAL fraud multiple times.

So the guy saying we're not taking refugees, punishing other countries for "not helping" us refuse refugees, wants to force other countries to take refugees so he can build hotels. 🤔

We are a nation of spoiled, selfish childish bullies.

I refuse to call it the "Gulf of America" until he also makes it illegal to call San Francisco "Frisco".

In the desktop browser version of Google Maps, you can configure it to use place names used by Mexico instead of place names used by the US. I haven't found a way to do this in the Android version.

Human progress and creativity are driven by diversity.

Simple minds can't stand to see things change or entertain new perspectives. They call that "having common sense".

Strange to think I know more about the law, the constitution, and military rules of engagement than the adolescent lawyer veteran a bunch of folks chose to be our vice president. And I don't know all that much.

I was promised tariffs that would collect trillions of dollars, make income tax obsolete, eliminate the national debt, and pay for child care for all. Why does the president keep backing down on them?

Mmmmaga: Our policy objectives are too important to allow the constitution or law to hinder them, and because not enough voters agree with our policy objectives to allow us to change the laws, we have no choice but to ignore them.

It seems to me some millions of people who have been convinced that government doesn't do anything for them could soon be living the dream.

Reporter: Would you be okay if Democrats had George Soros do the things Elon Musk is doing?

Maga politician: The government is spending money on things I don't like.

(Repeat and repeat)

I remember the last time some folks took over a chunk of Palestine and kicked out the people living there, it went off without a hitch.

Going through maga heads right now: "He didn't actually mean it he was just brainstorming or playing ten dimensional chess I'm not sure which yet but if it turns out he really means it of course he's right he's a genius and it's obvious that's what we should do are you stupid?"

Take a demagogue and give him immunity from prosecution and accomplices who refuse to impeach him. He will direct his minions to break any and all laws without fear of prosecution and a promise of a pardon if it comes to that. It was a grand experiment in democratic republic while it lasted.

Our president is convincingly demonstrating that he has the firm delusion this is the 19th century. 25th amendment might actually become inevitable at some point.
