one of these things requires steadfast morals, unparalleled ethics, and a rapier intellect that transcends geographical boundaries.

the other is being president.
"but nick, you post too isn't this hypocritical?" no bitch I don't want to be president! the red flag is wanting to post AND be president. they are fundamentally different responsibilities and we should be extremely leery of people who conflate the two

"went viral" also originally implied that the mechanism for passing these stories around was organic - reposts, forwarding to friends etc. - today it means pleasing the machine (in X's case, programmed by a Nazi) that decides which posts are widely distributed and which are buried.
“Went viral” is an old stock phrase in journalism that really does not capture the dynamic of how X dot Com has been tuned to give people like the one specific legislator here the power to intentionally cause this kind of outcome

this is demonic. sorry to say but if you do this you should be shipped to a desert island away from the rest of us who still have human souls

Joe Rogan and Shane Gillis on Nick Fuentes running for president one day.

Rogan: “He could probably win in a few years. Listen, he couldn’t have existed before, right? Ten, twenty years ago, couldn’t have existed. Now, super popular. What’s twenty years from now look like?”

President Trump’s spiteful defamation suit against the Pulitzer Prize Board may backfire, as the latter is now demanding Trump’s psychological records, prescription medication records, and tax returns in the discovery process. trib.al/LUCScTR

“Why are Abundance Bros refusing to participate in the Hallmark universe?”
I don’t always agree with of the broader political takes from some “abundance”-coded pundits but man the abundance critics are just pure nonsense merchants

like, what’s this guy’s deal? literally making up a guy to dunk on the idea that cities should build more housing and transit.

Kind of wild how the take that some of Trump's supporters were "deplorable" was some huge scandal, but regularly screaming about "radical left scum" is just a thing he'll say with no media backlash.
