Curtis Yarvin has written a very long screed in defense of his post in which he said, “Hitler spoke the truth.”
A sampling of select portions is below and includes, in reference to Jewish people, the words:
“The only way to tell is the name and the nose.”

Not only is this extremely racist, this is colossally ignorant and stupid. Every sentence is completely detached from the historical record. Miller is only capable of regurgitating Camp of Saints and lacks the intellectual capability for even a modicum of sophistication

An administration that pardons insurrectionists and tells members of Congress that it's unacceptable to say soldiers can refuse to obey illegal orders
The Pentagon will cut the military retirement pay of Sen. Mark Kelly for what Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth called the Arizona Democrat’s “seditious” statements on a video telling service members they have the right to refuse to execute illegal orders.

As expected, Twitter is chock full of antisemitic conspiracy theories claiming Jews and/or Israel are behind the attack in Venezuela.
This is just the new reality. Something we used to see mainly on 4chan is now everywhere.
From conspiracy theories to a totalizing ideology.

People being like, "But Venezuelans are happy about Maduro being gone!" have the memories of goldfish. IN 2003, the narrative was that Iraqis celebrated the U.S. invasion and capture of Saddam.
Whether they were happy or not, invading Iraq was still the wrong thing to do.

Exactly. These are not the same thing. Either this was a highly kinetic police operation or the US now runs Venezuela. If it's a policing operation, sovereign power of Venezuela doesn't come in as a package deal.
Either it was a limited operation merely to arrest Maduro and move on, or, it is an ongoing major regime change committment that will open up a transition including international and private sector partners. It really can't be both

Democrats' stance since J6 should have been total non-cooperation with Republicans until they go back to following the Constitution. Has only gotten worse since then.
Legal formalism and demands for bipartisanship are completely at odds with correctly noting Trump's threat to democracy.

1. Maduro is not a good guy by any stretch of the imagination.
2. But capturing him through an extra-legal action that violates international law undermines any US credibility with Russia in Ukraine and China with Taiwan.
3. We have a terrible history with topping leaders without a post-war plan.

The way the press is treating chatbots, like they have agency and they “know” things all of a sudden, crossed the line recently from dumb and obsequious to something else entirely. Treating them as alive and making conscious decisions is an almost religious belief. It won’t age well.
