Remember when someone On Here tried to make “emploid” a slur for having a job

I'll fight you irl, just let me finish this post

"I have faced online harassment, which probably has nothing to do with my behavior. I demand that you fight me in the McDonald's parking lot."

that same dumbass quote-replying to me with "I'm a trans woman who has faced transphobic harassment on this platform in the past but I could hold my own in a fist fight with you if needed" with quotes disabled and replies limited

lol somehow the big talk falls flat

some rando asswipe telling me "I mean you support genocide so it's not hard to see why you have a tolerance for distasteful things"

Patsy Parisi in Season 5 Episode 9 of The Sopranos remarking "some rack on that girl"

something I've gotten over as a successful adult with gelatin-brained morons for in-laws is "condescending" as inherently wrong. in the words of a great philosopher, some of you bitches are very dumb

"fucking over rural Virginia" by making it so there's still a country made up of functioning institutions subsidizing them

In the case of modern alt right, I'm not joking, failed theater kids. Modern dirtbag left, failed comedians

I’m reading a book right now (The Cult of Art in Nazi Germany) which details how a Hitler and his closest associates were all embittered by being excluded from artistic circles.

Yeah, there’s a a certain statue in Amsterdam I would like to draw attention to.

Marin County was ground zero for power lines cause breast cancer.

You can literally do useful things with LLMs you can run on a laptop.

I think they think that if they don't call it genocide we won't care

I study something that killed 30% of the population of the country where it happened, which was not a genocide.

The big argument for the Bernie campaigns was that he could activate these people for the Dems but oops they all turned out to be Trump voters.

Because 40% of healthcare workers (like the gen pop), are magats. They leveraged their immature "you need me" crap to get waivers. Worse, they didn't even care trump claimed the vaccine was his #ItIsACult #ETTD

I honestly think it's a mix of Aussies, for whom the Liberals are a centre-right party in coalition with fascists; UK Labour, oft such cultish Marxists that they see LibDems as enemies of mankind; and your basic political cult leaders, likely paid off by billionaire reactionaries.

Unironically, if the GOP survive this year, we need white, rural progressives to go out and run as "Christian conservative Republicans" but with Keynesianism and sustainability.

Random maga lady talking my ear off at a hotel in CA explaining how bad all the liberal polices are and also feeling “blessed” that her 20-something son was still on their health insurance after his terrible accident 🫠

Even better, I’m gonna go into right wing pro gun spaces and say “if you go far enough left you get your guns back.“ That’ll certainly turn the insane Turner Diaries reading gun guys into good comrades.

I'm going to make everyone mad too.

You want your bold new left of center security strategy? Here it is. (The title, not the book itself. That's just me being provocative.)

There is a global backswing against democracy. It is left or right colored in different countries. But it has to lose.

"I want to hug my daughter; that is what I survived for,"

says a Ukrainian soldier who held his position against Russians for 86 days.

This is a powerful image highlighting the cruelty of the IDF

I can think of some other people, however, who will also find this to be a powerful image, but for entirely different reasons

Unfortunately I think we're going to see this exact image a lot on the internet, but for all the wrong reasons

You know Oswald did it because there’s no mainline conspiracy theories about squeaky fromme or John Hinkley.

They didn't do it, but they didn't know who did. Nobody did. Golda Meier thought it was Cuba.

The idea that world historical events can just be random baffles the intelligent, educated mind. But in this case it was true

I can’t remember the source, but it was alleged that there was a KGB effort to prop up JFK conspiracism as a way to harm American institutional trust.

The JFK conspiracy is there is no conspiracy

The Secret Service wants cranks to think there was an elaborate conspiracy because a random nutjob getting lucky damages their reputation and makes them look incompetent in a way that endangers their future charges

I LIVED BITCH

The whole point of Super Hornet is to see how much drag you can put on an airframe & still get it funded

Hello there

There is nothing to indicate that the global south would perform better under a primarily socialist world economy. The global south has seen slower growth than the rest of the world in this regard, not a loss. Poverty is the default of human existence
