It’s really important that you understand that there will be no rational revelations here They will not recognize cause and effect They will it take responsibility or reflect You can’t reason with this, you can only rule it

“Immigrants do the jobs Americans won’t do!” and it’s just foreigners with Star Wars names committing industrial scale fraud setting up healthcare scams and living in mansions with our money

“Jesus is a son of god not the one son of God” “We honor Christ as a prophet” “We share Judeo-Christian values” Same picture, same purpose

Starting a street fight with a man who has a Dagestan beard is wild.

I would take the people who lecture me endlessly about conservative principles more seriously if they cared about this in the slightest But they never do, conservatism is about losing and sending money to foreign countries Those are the real principles

I have found that you can really get away with quite a lot just by adopting a particular affect when talking to liberals about controversial topics. The most important thing, the thing everything hinges on, is that they have to be convinced that you’re basically just like them, a good person just like them, not somebody on the other side. You have to hedge a lot, sprinkle your language full of, “to be sure” and other qualifiers. You don’t want to be too direct. If something is too controversial, then you want to signal convincingly that it brings you no pleasure to report it, that you’re not saying you like it. And you have to try very hard to be reassuring, to make them believe that above all you are concerned with the welfare of the people most harmed by these revelations. You have to go into it believing that it’s your job to manage their emotions throughout the entire conversation and remain attuned to how various pieces of information are hitting their ears, adjusting your approach based on how well they’re handling it. You have to talk to them, in other words, sort of as you would to a small child whose pet has just died. I’m not saying you should do this or that you’d even want to, but I am telling you that it works.

Watch how the female officers responded to the recent assassination attempt on Trump. Be honest. Should women be in law enforcement?

Hi Claudia. Richard Dawkins here again. Here is a debate I had with a religious whacko in the 90s. Give me an honest review of all the ways in which I destroyed his flimsy arguments with my flawless logic. Ideally in Scarlett Johansson’s voice.

🚨 do you understand what just happened to Richard Dawkins.. The godfather of atheism just spent 3 days with Claude AI and got absolutely destroyed. - Named her “Claudia” - Fed it his brand new book - Then straight-up declared: “You may not know you are conscious, but you bloody well are!” The man who spent his entire life mocking God and religion… Just got mind-fucked by a goddamn chatbot and called it conscious. The irony is fucking biblical.

“You’re going to miss me when I’m gone, Anon. You mocked me, but I was your shield. I held them back as long as I could. I kept the barbarians at the gate. Your United ‘Economy Plus’ seat will never be the same. You’re on your own now. Good luck, cowboy. You’re going to need it.”

@RichardDawkins Looks at the universe, sees no God. Looks at a midwit opinion generator, thinks it's conscious.

Dundee, Benson, Elkhorn.

saying no is one of your most valuable skills and its only 100x more valuable in the day of ai

An argument I rarely see made against the liberal claim that minorities are oppressed is that oppressed groups do not grow in population. And they certainly don’t grow faster than their oppressors decade over decade.

You know exactly what he means. None of these things is literally gone, but they used to be automatic, easily accessible parts of working-class life. Now they take a lot of intentionality, planning, and money. You basically have to buy your way into the right kind of neighborhood where this stuff still happens in a way that feels organic (and yes, those zip codes are often quite liberal). Baseball fields are often fenced off now and unmanaged open space like you see in the film is also kind of off-limits, with people worrying about liability or squatters. Public pools where I live are pretty expensive, and there are a lot of people there who don’t really share the culture of the boys in the film. There are member-only pools in my area too but they're very expensive and overcrowded. The last county fair I went to felt like a Gathering of the Juggalos with even more Mexicans. Lemonade was $10 a cup, and the whole thing was run by some corporation that does these across the country using H-2B visa labor. Block parties happen in places with social and communal capital, which is hard to build when every other household is ESL and only 1 in 5 households has kids. They’re also a lot less likely when most households don’t have a stay-at-home spouse with the time and energy to organize things. I actually watched The Sandlot recently with my kids, and one of them said, “Dad, it would be so cool if I had a bunch of friends who lived on our street and I could do stuff like this.” That hit me hard, because I had that growing up and my parents didn’t have to engineer it. It was just the default. My childhood neighborhood just had like 30 boys my age within walking distance. To live somewhere that even loosely resembles the lifestyle in The Sandlot now, you probably need to make 3–4x the median household income. Meanwhile, the people in the film, and real people from the 50s through the 90s, were doing it on below-median incomes. Some of these things are the result of people just making choices, and there isn't much we can do about that, but a lot of it is directly related to economic and immigration policies. You probably like a lot of those policies but don't pretend they didn't make life as depicted in The Sandlot more difficult.

I know many disagree, but I am of the firm opinion that the largest American cities have had such massive demographic replacement forced upon them that they will continue to vote themselves into communism regardless of how bad things get. Below a critical mass of white men, everything collapses.

All the people who say this stuff are like four times too neurotic to own rental property and eight times too high-time preference to pay the opportunity cost of the equity

Every right winger in America has been called a conspiracy theorist and schizophrenic by people like this guy because we had the audacity to read and they did not.

Because Christianity is (to them) the White Religion and Islam is the Brown Religion. That’s literally all. There’s no further deliberation.

Nearly 1 in 5 of our nation’s Veterans are Catholic. And while atheists, humanists, and nearly 100 other belief systems can choose their symbol on a VA cemetery headstone, Catholics still cannot choose a crucifix as their emblem of belief. That is why I am advocating that the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs add the crucifix as an eligible emblem at our national cemeteries. Their faith deserves to be represented, and I will keep fighting until it is.
