Not a big battle of the civilizations guy but gold toilets fuck yeah is a different argument than Michelangelo fuck yeah
There’s something doubly grating about the pious invocation of “Western civilization” by the sort of incurious dolt who wouldn’t know a Titian canvas, a Beethoven quartet, or a Socratic dialogue if whapped them upside the head.
It has long been clear that unalloyed racism lies at the core of Trumpism, and he is becoming increasingly explicit about this.

How much loss did the police post?
The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service

One of the reasons people like(d Corbyn is because he has the knack of the off-the-cuff picket line/community centre/union meeting speech. Social video is more like bumping into your constituents on the street than it is producing a TV show - it's a relatable way for ppl to get to know you

In terms of what’s understood to be socially acceptable behavior, normalizing the filming/taking pictures of people in public who are minding their own business (and putting it online) is one of the worst developments of the past 15 years.

worth saying that some portion of the freed slaves were themselves illegal aliens having been brought illegally into the united states by smugglers. if the birthright clause applies to them, it applies to undocumented immigrants
Here is the question presented. It's a relatively clean vehicle for the Supreme Court to finally decide whether it is lawful for the president to deny birthright citizenship to the children of immigrants. www.supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/25...

Something I have come to realize is that a lot of the people who tell you to “do something about it” in response to being upset about the collapse of eg American civil society are also the same people who get incredibly upset when they see someone doing something.

Dawkins is landed gentry with double coloniser ancestry (slavers in Jamaica and he was born in Kenya to colonisers) when us proles didn’t show him due deference and called him a prick he lost the plot
It's not a coincidence that Twitter made both Rowling and Dawkins way, way worse than they'd ever been.
They're bellweathers for the fact that Britain's already small and incestuous establishment was Too Online--and we know it's a major radicalisation vector for transphobia.

a lot of it genuinely comes down to the fact that almost all their elites were too online on X and the post-Musk thing has basically driven the socially conservative, fiscally socialist types insane (see e.g. the Blue Labour guy) and the right is basically now calling for ethnic purges
