This isn't the first time there's been an attack in Austin. Joseph Andrew Stack, a 53-year-old software engineer, flew a small plane into an IRS building in Austin.

He also lit his house on fire, with his wife and daughter inside.

Stack was a rabid libertarian who hated the IRS. His inspiration...

FBI probes possible terrorism link to deadly Texas bar shooting The FBI said it is investigating "indicators" that suggest a possible terrorism link after a deadly bar shooting in Austin on March 1.

He was wearing a T with Iran's flag, but he's not Iranian. He's a naturalized citizen from Senegal, with a history of mental health issues.

IOW, this wasn't an Iranian terror attack. It was a guy with serious mental health issues triggered by Trump's war of choice.

X Is Drowning in Disinformation Following US and Israeli Attack on Iran WIRED has reviewed hundreds of posts on X that promote misleading claims about the locations and scale of the attack.

Musk's X is a cesspool of misinformation and disinformation. Musk's own account is major source of bullshit.

Blue check accounts are spreading provocative bullshit to drive engagement, because they get paid for engagement, truth be damned.

Also, you stink of anti-Antisemitism. You're like the idiots shouting "from the river to the sea," which is a call for the eradication of Israel.

You may go, now. You have been most thoroughly dismissed.

If you think politicians should unilaterally refuse legal donations, you are, indeed, fucking stupid.

But at this point that's redundant.

Of course money ruins politics. We had our chance, but too many puritopian dispirits refused to vote for HRC. Had she won, no Citizens United.

We had our chance, but too many puritopian dipshits couldn't bring their stupid asses to vote for the highly qualified woman, because her emails, or some such shit.

Now, it'll be a generation before we can get right of Citizens United. Until then, money will continue to be a dominant force.

Money is the ammunition of political warfare. It's fucking stupid to unilaterally disarm.

Are you fucking stupid?

That's rhetorical. We've seen the evidence.

Read the fucking room, anti-Semitic douchebro.

As long as Citizens United is the law of the land, only an idiot would criticize anyone for taking every dollar they can.

That would be you, sparky.

That's an impressive fucking ratio you have there, slo boi.

Keep it up! I know you can embarrass yourself more. Odds are you do it every day.

You just showed your ass. Your whole ass. And it ain't pretty.

Imagine being this fucking clueless, and proud of it.

Face it slo boi, you've had your ass handed to you. Your whole ass.

Oh, man, stop it, you're killing me!

How does it feel to have your dumb ass handed to you so publicly?

Delete your account, Boris Botnik. This one is dead. And buried.

Tor is slow tonight. I'm assuming it's due to the attacks on Iran.

You don't need a VPN to be safely anonymous. Tor is an easy and safe alternative. And it's free.

Pretty sure it's new. I hadn't seen it before.

Also new, the balsamic vinegar with chopped figs and caramelized onions hummus is very good. Kind of a dessert hummus.

Proud to have cast my early vote for Jasmine Crockett. Hoping the idiot MAGAs nominate Paxton.

Jasmine would make chopped liver out of Paxton. And Republicans in Texas are stupid enough to hand him the nomination.

And now for something completely different...

Central Market's yuzu kosho hummus with jalapeรฑo, garlic and sea salt is excellent. It's my new fave hummus flavor.

The typos. So many typos. And he's supposed to be an editor?

It's one thing to be a fucking nut, which he is, but this?

In what universe of infinite stupid does this idiocy pass muster?

Follow along as Glem Grendelwald totally loses his shit after being called out for promoting Trump as The Peace Manโ„ขยฎ

I'm pretty sure Tim Miller is the only one in this exchange who DIDN'T start their professional career by doing pro bono legal work for a violent white supremacist cult.

Dozens dead in Iran school blast blamed on US and Israel strikes There is no confirmation by the US or Israel of the strike on the school located near elite military troops.

Your tax dollars at work. At work murdering children. In your name.

108 children dead. This is the definition of a war crime.

Or, as it's known in Trump's fascist regime, a bonus.

Too many fauxgressives are anti-Semites. What's worse is they don't know it.

Nazis know it. The Klan knows it. Puritopians don't.

They're blind to their own prejudices, and they don't understand - or care - how it affects others.

So stupid. This is a fight they will lose when it's litigated, and they know it.

They don't care. The point is the pain.

Fuck these gundigelical bigots.
