the correct way to understand the protest opsec stuff is that its a shibboleth for guys who attend left wing protests regularly that lets them exert status over recruits. i would regard it as pretty benign if these people werent actively discouraging people from getting involved.

It's abundantly clear that Ronald D. Moore's original concept for the reboot Cylons is just totally incompatible with the lore the writer's room invented in the back half of the show.

BSG remains exceptional throughout its whole runtime, but one of the biggest signs of its gradual decline in quality season-to-season is how it eventually decides it's just not interested in exploring the hyper-religious robots it made such a big deal about in season 1.

don't mean to blow anyone's mind with this shocking insight but the direct line between epstein, 4chan, gamergate, tech bro fascists etc is misogyny. prolific rapists, guys who believe women have inferior intelligence, and guys who hate women for rejecting them all have something big in common!

None of the tiny people who live in my phone are enemies because I can turn my phone off, you should try that

Elon Musk publicly slandering that cave diver as a "pedo guy" after he begged Jeffrey Epstein for island party invites is just incredible

"moot is in the epstein files" is the completely true sentence that has finally convinced me this is all an extremely stupid simulation and that we're all being used to power a robot overlord's game gear or something

It makes you sound crazy to say this out loud, but it's becoming increasingly clear that the United States government has been effectively toppled by a group of overt pedophiles

You go to war with the martyrs you have. This is now a pro-Don Lemon propaganda account and he is to be considered an unstoppable ubermensch until such time he is once again a free moron. May death come swiftly to his enemies.

the answer is that jennings performance of smug dishonesty reliably generates viral clips, so they continue to have him on even though he is a shameless liar

If you answer “No” you get an invitation to Mar-a-Lago

the president of the united states should not be allowed to personally loot the treasury to the sum of ten billion dollars and that this is not resulting in immediate, unanimous impeachment is a dramatic indictment of what has become of our political system

How ICE Already Knows Who Minneapolis Protesters Are

A Minnesota woman observing ICE agents in her car was cornered on one-way streets. An agent approached, called her by name—citing facial recognition. Days later, her Global Entry and TSA privileges were revoked, with no explanation.

This (politicians explaining civics to people) was a *huge* part of national politics in the twentieth century, and for some reason every president post-Reagan just decided to stop trying.

Wild that there was an open lane called "what if we just explain things clearly to people?" and he's the first one to ever fill it

Jeffries's proposed ban on the deportation of U.S. citizens goes a step further than Schumer did. He said it's necessary given numerous reports indicating that American citizens have been wrongly deported as part of President Trump's

If there's ever a history museum dedicated to this time period make sure this sentence gets displayed there

The coolest Congresswoman there’s ever been.

Like, I think this is literally what Derash (דְּרַשׁ, literally "seek") means within the PaRDeS theory of Kabbalah: the ability to seek out understanding in a text by basically just making shit up about it.

We call this 'Jewish Exegesis' and it's fucking awesome.

They wore yellow stars to complain about vaccine mandates

Buried lede: a cabinet secretary claims to have been taking direction from someone who has never held a Senate-confirmed position

This is why I have real fucking problem with blithe criticisms of "polarization" or "congressional dysfunction." We have a Republican member blaming his colleague for being attacked.

it reveals pretty plainly that "merit-based hiring" means "you belong to the correct class and hold the right set of identities"

There are people with principled takes on the 2nd Amendment, like the 1st.

But if you ever believed that the American Right broadly supported 2nd Amendment rights, as opposed to rights for people who agreed with them, you are a fool.

I would be so, so, so very happy if Democrats could use this opportunity to peel off moderate 2A advocates from conservatism.

But I guess it just feels like there's a difference to me between "Our religion's founder from 2000 years ago would not approve of this theocratic ethnonationalism done in his name" and "Our ENTIRE ethnoreligious group would not have tolerated this even 30 years ago."

And, like, I know liberal Christians have been printing "Jesus would slap the shit out of you" bumper stickers since... forever.

If Democrats haven't announced their proposal for the Donald Trump No Guns in Public bill by the end of the day, they're missing an easy shot
