Weird to think the citizens were better informed about *vague gesture at everything* when our dissemination model largely relied on neighborhood kids on bikes throwing rolled-up sheafs of paper toward the front door as they pedaled past.

Without their valiant efforts at sowing division and discourse people might be able to talk to each other and conclude both reasons suxk and the entire right wing movement should be thrown out on their ass
Why are people apparently arguing about whether Trump’s illegal invasion and bigger warmongering threats are an evil all on their own that must be fought, or an attempted distraction from Epstein and Trump’s huge grocery and health care cost increases. Doesn’t seem like a leap to conclude it’s both.

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.”

One note about Ford is that he doesn't read well and can't spell. He doesn't use a computer. If he was assessed, he's probably functionally illiterate. So he uses his phone to phone people. Like when he called up this guy to threaten him.

The weirdest thing about Americans is how many of them think their laws apply to every person in the world.
But they're certain other countries' laws don't apply to them.

Abysmal statement from Canada on the illegal US action in Venezuela.
It doesn’t matter how much you dislike Maduro, that doesn’t justify a violation of international law and the UN Charter. You can’t call on “all parties” to respect international law and not call out US lawlessness.
