i can handle this one: it is because he is an illiterate boer ape
I know there a thousand other points to make here, but: why did Musk put a picture of the Odyssey in a thread about the Iliad?
*maximum alpha at 1.25x speed* continuously lives on in my head, unfortunately.

All morning was spent chasing ICE out of my neighborhood in Chicago (Avondale) and meeting other neighbors who were out patrolling on foot, on bikes, and in cars. A caravan of ICE SUVs got within a half block of my house. I finally had to use my whistle. It works. It drew others out to the street.

The most Republican guy is the guy who owns the used car dealership, a tanning salon, and a boat in a place that has been economically decimated by deindustrialization

The dream of every Muslim is simply to be treated the same as any other New Yorker.
And yet, for too long, we have been told to ask for less than that, and endure hatred and bigotry in the shadows.
No more.

Federal agents raided Family Night at La Catedral Arena in Wilder, Idaho. A community racetrack packed with families, food, and music. They came under the guise of “illegal betting.” What they unleashed was terror: children zip-tied, parents separated, and chaos erupting across a crowd of 1,000.

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera
In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.
As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

The New York Times doesn't tell you why the alleged murderer said he sent pizzas to the victim's house just before he ran down the girl and her best friend. He said on video that he was getting revenge for social media comments about death of Charlie Kirk.

I’m becoming more and more concerned that people at high levels of public discussion cannot identify the difference between a genuinely viral conversation vs a bunch of bots making noise.
“Bots or likely bots authored 44.5% of X posts mentioning Cracker Barrel in the 24 hours after the new logo gained attention on Aug. 20, according to research for @WSJ by PeakMetrics. That number rose to 49% among posts calling for a boycott.”

This is doing numbers on social media right now and it's so depressing how people truly yearn for this shit and want to preserve that feeling indefinitely like a mausoleum of false memories.

its extremely fucked that we've reached Mass Shooter Slop level of the dematerialization and aestheticization of politics trajectory
It feels like this is becoming a more common mass shooter profile: Someone who's interested in politics but not as a vehicle to express clear values or a coherent viewpoint. He just wants to mock anyone who takes it seriously.

in the year 2025, megabillionaires are pulling the same blockade attempt that racist broadcasters did at tv stations in the south, but instead of protesting the televising of speeches by Medgar Evars or MLK, its the guy from The Man Show
UPDATE: Sinclair is NOT going to broadcast Jimmy Kimmel, even though ABC is resuming production.
Sinclair has demanded that Kimmel personally donate to Turning Point USA, a right-wing political organization.
David Smith, executive chairman of Sinclair, donated 250K to Turning Point USA last year.

Counterpoint: its much easier for them to repress speech at the level of Late Night TV than it is random social accounts and they are consistently attacking high visibility low power targets which makes new enemies for very little actual social gain or narrative control
