you will surely get the karkland
The mid to late 2010's was the entire internet/socialization/media spheres of society being censored beyond belief because of concepts like "misinformation" and "extremism" and it did absolutely nothing to stop that, and just made everything worse than it would've been
Cassandra MacDonald@CassandraRules

I searched Cole Allen on tiktok and went to the top posts to see what people are saying... its basically all that alleged photo of him in an IDF shirt.

Really does bring up memories of how deranged these creatures acted after January 6th.

The phrasing implies that there is a motive that could’ve been unearthed that would justify the assassination attempt. Even when Barry Soetoro tries to do this opportunistic sanctimonious f🅰️ggotry he can’t bring himself to say that it’s bad to try and murder Trump.
Barack Obama@BarackObama

Although we don’t yet have the details about the motives behind last night's shooting at the White House Correspondents Dinner, it’s incumbent upon all us to reject the idea that violence has any place in our democracy. It’s also a sobering reminder of the courage and sacrifice that U.S. Secret Service Agents show every day. I’m grateful to them – and thankful that the agent who was shot is going to be okay.

You’re never going to believe who this is in reference to.

@basedamericana We need to funnel this type of dude into a decent paying job instead of part-time tutoring. Student debt and H1-Bs and dei bs disenfranchised or up and coming generation

A week ago I was doxxed, essentially socially murdered. Also socially raped which in my opinion is even more poignant. Since then I've been overwhelmed by how many people have donated but Ive gotten a few requests for a non crypto option so I set this up. givesendgo.com/howlingmutant?…

I’ve had people who once told me money shouldn’t exist try and talk to me about the importance of central bank independence over the last year. None of you believe in anything.

When Trump is in office: actually everything was perfect in 1990 and we were building the ideal world until people got tired of things being perfect in 2016 and ruined it. When Trump isn’t in office: America was always a racist shithole that must atone for its crimes.

I went to go get bloodwork recently in an 80% white town and the phlebotomist was an African who didn’t speak English. Had to point and mime to give instructions. Every job you hear about having a “labor shortage” is like this.

Mid-career professionals who were “on the fence about Trump, but held their nose bc Kamala’s buyback tax was a bridge too far” talk about Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan with such forlorn reverence. They truly think a shapeshifting coward and his DC rentboy sidekick could’ve saved us.

@claws816 Issue is there’s a nursing shortage too. Easiest solution is raise wages for phlebotomists and attract normal Americans to the job. There’s usually a degree of mandatory training involved to get certified.

@tim2_12 "...icreased reliance on nurses for blood draws..." Hot take - maybe all blood draws should be done by trained nurses and we shouldn't have low-skilled jobs in medicine.

@fiscal_respons It’s insane that the wages for working retail or fast food aren’t far off from a job where you puncture people’s arms with a needle every few minutes.

People really love arguing about the red/blue pill libtard blender thought experiment. This went viral on xiaohongshu like 6+ months ago and I thought “haha downstream from the American internet” but no people are still doing the discourse here years after the first post.
Tim Urban@waitbutwhy

Everyone in the world has to take a private vote by pressing a red or blue button. If more than 50% of people press the blue button, everyone survives. If less than 50% of people press the blue button, only people who pressed the red button survive. Which button would you press?

@sichuan_mala Yes but the downside is when you want to by illiquid AI-levered small caps in foreign markets that only trade in a different time zone after work you’re too tired to place the trade once you get home.

Part of the nice thing about working 996 is that you don't have the time or energy to even think about panic selling and before you know it your portfolio is back at ATHs

I actually don’t think LKY is particularly impressive? Like I do think he was a good leader, but it’s not actually that hard to create an affluent society when your population is 85%+ Chinese. You basically just have to not do communism.
Kane 謝凱堯@kane

Leftists hate Lee Kuan Yew because he showed in one generation that good governance is a technical and operational endeavor, not a moral performance or an exercise in redistributive grievance.
