I guess?

I mean, sure

They're surprisingly good at proofs for something that can't count or do logic

Sex Marxism woooo

That's a good take

Non sequitor but some days I am *this close* to coming back and then I see this shit

Leo needs to do an Inquisition in the American church. Get the Liberation Theology Dominicans in here.

Yeah like, I'm not that Catholic but I know a little about the history of Catholic doctrine and this is pretty out of step

I bet that two years into this he has googled what genocide means and decided nah that's not right...

Well, if that's so, it might be part of the reason for all the equivocation

The relevant UN body's definition of genocide is available for free on God's own internet, it's just not exactly the same as the intuitive definition and therein people love to make bad faith arguments.

6 points, but I just mean a really serious decisive loss for Republicans, media changes their tune a little, Dems get the gavel back, actually *do something*

I don't really believe Trump getting re-elected dooms the country. I do however believe Dems not winning midterms by 6 kind of sort of does doom the country at least in the medium term.

Yeah I am still in All Bets Are Off territory with Americans. Literally who knows what they'll do next.

Yeah I think this is *mostly* what it is but there does seem to also be some evidence for a group of men who were too right wing for anyone in national politics to excite enough to vote for until Trump.

At one point we thought a lot of these guys were just unaware or unmobilized socialists. Now we're sort of balanced between them either being just incoherent Median Voter brained or mostly actual Nazis. I hope it turns out to be mostly incoherent median voters.

I'm reading Hilsdale and Heritage Foundation primary source stuff (don't ask!) and they're formatted like here is a John Dewey essay, but first here is a one page preface making sure the reader knows the following material is Bad & Incompatible with the Constitution. It's the most ridiculous thing

The feeling when no Dewey's notion of liberalism old and new

Writers can get a lot of mileage out of turning "I feel bad personally right now" into analysis

"I live in a black mold containment unit" wow, awesome. And ticks, too? Wow.

I'm going full crank fake China stats mode help me

This web site is about this close (hold up thumb and forefinger) from BRICS posting

Pray God eventually we'll get none

Converting to Catholicism only to immediately start Protestanting up the place really takes some entitlement don't you think

Yay that's awesome

😍

It's unavoidable people will pick and chose what part of their hearth religion feels salient for them but how do you 1. be a fascist garbage person and 2. think of yeah cool like, I'll just join Pope Francis and Leo's gang, that will work great with my really niche esoteric right wing politics

I know there are a ton of terrible conservative Catholics in America and elsewhere but like, post Vatican II, **WHAT** do these converts think they're converting to?? What is the Dominican study house in DC telling people Catholic doctrine is in the 21st century?

SO fucking good

It's far more likely that a future US, with Americans who look on average slightly different than current Americans, does another wave of conquering
