So let me get this straight: Universities Universities were once places where thoughts could be exchanged and challenged or shared. Now they're kicking kids out of college for not properly mourning the government's current late favorite private citizen. It's kiss the ring or bye bye funding

Last November I wrote that Republicans wanted to “socialize the means of cancellation” through the creation of a “Snitch State.” Feels relevant now. www.theatlantic.com/magazine/arc...

In Texas and elsewhere, new laws and policies have encouraged neighbors to report neighbors to the government.

So let me get this straight: A private citizen was murdered along with several other people that week. But for the one guy we have flags at half mast and the Speaker of the House and the Secretary of HHS have done a vigil. And the government
says you'd better mourn properly or shut up.

So let me get this straight: When People got offended on behalf of someone else
and sought to have someone fired, and basically shunned for insensitive or
tasteless remarks this was referred to as cancel culture. Now that conservatives are doing it, is it still cancel culture?

I need a break from the news cycle. It's eroding my faith in mankind to see reactions on social media. A breather sounds like a good idea. Not a coma, just a cleansing breath.

Now the Trump admin claims ti have stopped 50 million bucks from going to Gaza. No proof, no evidence. Of the dozen or so articles I've seen, reports say it ain't so. Except Fox of course.

So the order to ignore ethnic history observance, etc.,also includes "accessibility mandates". Meanwhile, the unelected billionaire and his crew have hijacked loads of sensitive info, including stuff relating to the unelected billionare's business rivals. Are we great again yet?

So, before any investigation, the President blames DEI, Biden, Obama, Buttigeig. FAA.
He may be a cheat, a liar, and cognitively impaired, but at least he falls apart in a crisis.
