You got a follow out of this. This is the kind of erudite commentary I'm here for.

Look at that guy's face... He knows it's wildly wrong but can't or won't say anything.

Did anyone else get raptured yesterday or was it just me? Feeling very lonely rn. It's just me and God and he doesn't seem very chatty. I think he's in a mood.

It seems to me, it pays to have increasingly extreme viewpoints, especially on the right. Where's the left balance? I argue we haven't gone nearly woke enough. I want to see:

transgender beef

non-binary computer code

mandatory rainbows at all times, preferably them double ones

I think Musk's comments to a rally of 100k people are the highest profile advocacy of political violence in the UK since the end of the Northern Ireland conflict. Does anybody have a counter-example?

"Whether you choose violence or not, violence is coming to you. You either fight back or you die."

Far rightโ€™s show of force leaves Met desperately kettling counter-protesters Police almost overwhelmed by brawlers whipped up by Tommy Robinson and his guest demagogues

Elon Musk, appearing via video link, told the crowd: โ€œWhether you choose violence or not, violence is coming to you. You either fight back or you die, thatโ€™s the truth."

How is this not incitement to violence? Surely this is clearly illegal?

We've reached a point where it's wildly undemocratic to continue clinging to first past the post.

So whatever you do, definitely don't go floppy because the police find it really annoying.

Wow. Why won't politicians in Britain speak this frankly? Succinct and accurate.

This is right on the boundary between genius and absurdity. I can't quite tell whether he's a virtuoso or he's never played the drums before.

The only thing that should be happening in Alaska is the arrest of indicted war criminal Vladimir Putin.

Anything else is a victory for evil.

A POTUS should meet with those defending themselves against war crimesโ€”with Putin begging to be involved due to a fear of consequences.
