I'd really love to know how the "Val is manipulating Vox" crowd is feeling right now.

Elizabeth Holmes deserves so much worse. She was only ever convicted of defrauding her investors even though she also defrauded thousands of patients.

We have sunk so low that the circling wagons are judging the illegality and immorality of adult men raping, sexually exploiting and manipulating teens and children by the victims’ ages.
It’s all wrong and despicable. Hold them accountable. If you know someone making excuses, head for the door.

Is Bannon a member of the cult, or is he manipulating the cult? 🤔

Hi Jeffrey, I know you are good at manipulating children so I wanted to ask your advice on picking up women

Something that is going to bother a lot of people as time goes on with the Epstein files drip....

Yes, grooming, manipulating, and raping children is vile and disgusting.

But those who did it don't see these girls, these children, as people. It's why they did this for so long.

Why had income dropped so precipitously? Well, some folks might remember a little thing called Strikethrough, where the fuckhead CEO bowed to an astroturfed "child protection" organization (and the dedicated griefers manipulating them, including this dude: bsky.app/profile/raha... )
A small example from my career: when we experimented with an advisory board system on LiveJournal back in 2005, the frontrunner for the "user-elected representative" seat was the single most prominent and abusive griefer on the entire site of ~20 million people.

I also like: "Mcconell machaivelli wanting to lose the house, Giuliani a drunk, cliff sims a weasel Keith Schiller lying about how many days in Moscow. Pence and the mother Manipulating meadows. Bossie behind the scenes, trump going after jr. I would say most of the book is you and your views." 4/

People keep asking how this guy got so powerful and it's a little disturbing that they don't understand that he was fundamentally really good at manipulating groups of people

Trump thrives on tormenting and manipulating. He twists laws, traffics in illegality, and turns small matters into games at others’ expense.

A sick, narcissistic old man—like a predator, a slumlord, or just a plain old dick.

It’s time to turn the tables on him.

NYT intimates that Scott Bessent is unethically manipulating the IRS to avoid issues surrounding his use of a tax dodge to escape tax liabilities.

Just heard a brilliant soundbyte from Natasha Devon
“If you are informed and have empathy it’s a terrible time to be alive.
And then you have people who are informed but have no empathy who are manipulating people who have empathy but are not informed”
This is how Faragism works

Listened to it yesterday and am filled with admiration for Natasha. The bit that got me most; People without empathy but with information are manipulating those with empathy but no information. A better description of the current Reform surge than any.

The Bolsheviks believed you could create a “new man.”

Today’s tech and political 'elites' believe they can create new consumers, new voters, new identities — by manipulating attention, emotion, and perception.

It’s the same logic.

Only the interface changed.

Ancestry DNA is now manipulating and changing DNA results to push Zionism and Zionist tropes.

It is now owned by Blackrock. Sooooo….yeah.

No longer reliable data.

Be very wary of that service.

“While the media laughs it off, INSIDERS are preparing”

Most grifting cult ever. All this talk about appealing to the young, male voters. They’re playing on their insecurities and manipulating them.
If you're in the cult, you are receiving bullshit like this in your inbox every day. I subscribe to know so you don't have to.

I realized, when Vox is spouting lies, manipulating, or is speaking to an audience his voice sounds it’s overacting, like there’s a kind of edge to it. But in the flashback with Alastor his voice is nervous and genuine. The way he said “together” was so sincere- #HazbinHotelVox

He's the puppet. The ones manipulating him scare me more.

I love that Frieza stopped giving a shit about conquering worlds and wanting the Dragon Balls for power when he came back to life.

He's still a petty little monster, but he prefers fighting and getting stronger or even manipulating his enemies against each other cause its fun.
Scenes like this are why in retrospect I’m glad they brought Frieza back
