Instead of yelling "GO Patriots" or "GO Rams" I'll be yelling at immigrants that they should "GO back where they came from!"

I still think it’s largely a backward-looking philosophy but enabled by new tech. So many elements come from an imagined idealized past: obsession with birth rates, fetishizing of “western civilization”, caesarism/monarchism, male chauvinism, racism against “non-model” minorities.

This same technology you’re applauding can also, for instance, show ethnic minorities committing rapes and violent crimes in order to justify genocide or persecution. The fact that it’s nearly indistinguishable from reality is the reason it should be banned or at least have a labeling requirement.

This condition is quite real and extremely unpleasant. A close friend had this and he ended up making multiple trips to the ER with searing abdominal pain before the doctors could figure out what it was. Fortunately, once they figured it out he quit smoking cold turkey and made a full recovery.

I suspect it’s also a vehicle for handouts to fund manager cronies who can earn fat fees for handling these accounts.

There’s definitely a joke in there somewhere about how many Jews live in Manhattan (Kansas) but I’m too lazy to put all the pieces together.

The fact that the beach is called Playa Bagdad is so on the nose it would cause you to roll your eyes if this were a work of satire.

The joke is that “gonzo” would be the masculine so “gonza” would be the feminine descriptor. It’s not very funny…

Although Leo ends that anecdote saying something to the effect that "those days are over" because partisanship has overtaken the old House-Senate rivalry.

Even if this thing somehow passed the senate, I don't think there's even a handshake agreement that the house would take this up. There's a 100% chance that if this passes the senate Johnson refuses to put it on the house floor and it dies without even coming close to getting a vote.
