@TheStaticRain @Devon_Eriksen_ Needs more about goat fucking, but then yes.

@RyanStilton @Devon_Eriksen_ Vai-te foder, paneleiro da merda. Is this "arabic" enough for you?

Europe's disease is not a disease of America. It is a disease of World War 2. In 1946, after we rescued them from themselves and each other, Europeans crawled out of the rubble they had made of their continent, looked around at their mess, wept for a bit, and then formed the wrong conclusions. They decided that ethnic nations are bad. That patriotism is bad. That supporting your tribe, in preference to random strangers, is bad. They decided that these things had led to the horrors of global war and genocide in Europe itself, and so all vestiges of loyalty to one's own people must be stamped out. Nations were, forever afterward, to be post-ethnic, post-cultural legal and economic units filled with... well, anyone, really. A bunch of people who didn't, in fact shouldn't, share values, goals, morals, customs, or even a common language. Nations were to be mere fiefs, their boundaries determined by which set of political elites controlled them. America, having not been smashed to rubble in WW2, did not share this view. We saw WW2 as an expensive adventure in bailing out Europe, which we spent our treasure and our blood on (including my own grandfather's life, and his chance to ever see his grandson) precisely because we shared cultural and ethical values with the people we were rescuing. But they hate us for it. They see our patriotism as fascism precisely because they see all patriotism as fascism. Psychologists have long understood that humans respond to favors with gratitude only up until those favors become so great that they have no hope of repaying them. At that point, their gratitude turns to resentment. How dare we believe we did them a favor? How dare I believe that my father gave up his father so Europe could be safe, peaceful, and free? Don't we know that, because ${ELABORATE MENTAL GYMNASTICS}, we didn't do them any favors by fighting that war? Don't we know that, because ${ANY PATRIOTISM = HITLER}, our love of our country and favoring of its interests makes us fascist and problematic? Well, no. I don't know that. I don't think any European nation is our ally any more. Certainly, we have shared interests, but how much does that really matter, when they refuse to act in those shared interests, because they have come to believe that acting in your people's interest is bad? They hate us too much to work with us. They resent every ounce of the burden which they are asked to share. Our support has made Europe into a pack of idle welfare recipients, complete with sense of entitlement and self-destructive behavior. But if we didn't defend them... who would? Their native populations have been purged of all patriotism, and who would blame them if they didn't fight for ruling elites that hate them? Their imported third-world barbarians won't fight for them. The very idea is laughable. What's left? And what will make them wake up and think about these questions? Perhaps they need to dig themselves out of the rubble of another war.

@TheStaticRain @Devon_Eriksen_ I’m sure this post was more eloquent in its original Arabic

You’ve got the "American Hero" cape on so tight it’s cutting off the circulation to your brain. You think we "crawled out of the rubble" and just forgot how to be a country? No, sweetheart. We looked at the pile of 100 million corpses we’d stacked up between 1870 and 1945 and realized that "patriotism" in Europe isn’t a flag on a lawn—it’s a bayonet in your neighbor’s lung. We didn't "stamp out" loyalty; we put a muzzle on a rabid dog that had already bitten off its own legs twice in thirty years. We traded the "tribe" for a trade agreement because, believe it or not, selling each other Volvos is a lot more sustainable than burying each other’s teenagers. ​And let’s drop the "charity" act. It’s embarrassing. You didn't give us a "favor" out of the goodness of your Christian hearts; you bought a luxury apartment complex on the edge of a graveyard so the Soviets wouldn't move in. The Marshall Plan wasn't a gift—it was a down payment on an empire. You paid for our defense so you could call the shots, park your nukes in our backyard, and make sure the entire planet did business in Greenbacks. You call us "welfare recipients," but you’re the landlord who’s been skimming the rent for eighty years while complaining that the tenants don't own enough guns. You want us to "act like men"? Careful what you wish for. The last time Europe felt "manly" and "tribal," your grandfather had to fly three thousand miles just to find a place to park his plane that wasn't on fire. ​You’re sitting over there in your "un-smashed" suburbs, lamenting our lack of "morals and customs" while your own country is vibrating with the same tribal idiocy you’re accusing us of losing. You think America is a "culture"? America is a business with a national anthem. You’re a "legal and economic unit" held together by credit card debt and a shared love of fast-food drive-thrus. At least our "post-ethnic" experiment was an attempt to stop a literal apocalypse. You’re just a collection of warring zip codes that can’t even agree on which bathroom to use, lecturing us about "shared goals." It’s adorable, really. It’s like a teenager with a trust fund telling a war veteran how to manage a budget. ​So, go ahead, keep hoping for "another war" to "wake us up." It’s a great plan—right up until the global economy, which survives on our stability, does a swan dive into a woodchipper. If the "American Umbrella" folds and we have to go back to being "barbarians," you aren't going to be sitting on your porch watching the fireworks. You’re going to be drafted into a conflict that makes WWII look like a schoolyard scuffle. We’re soft, sure. We’re "idle." We’ve got healthcare and trains that actually run on time because we weren't busy playing World Police. But don't mistake a vacation for a coma. We’re still the same people who invented every creative way to kill a human being known to man. If we "wake up," you won’t be getting a thank-you note—you’ll be getting a front-row seat to the end of the world. Good luck with the "patriotism," though. I’m sure it’ll look great on the tombstone.

@EthanLevins2 You’re not even a real account.

He’s crashing out. “Open the Fuckin’ strait” This is embarrassing…

@HarrisonHSmith @RealAlexJones It’s because they are incapable of those things you dummy

The only reason Iran is not bombing American bridges and shooting up American hospitals is because they know this war is deeply unpopular here, and that is to their advantage. Trump is basically daring them to do it and gambling with all of our lives.

@Hack_3bd @mosha3324 I’ll make sure to sprinkle a little bacon grease on your mothers grave

@RyanStilton @mosha3324 🐷🐷🐷🐷

🔴🔴🔴 حصدو عناصر الحرس الثوري الإيراني حصد بالطيران الأباتشي

You can tell Iran is winning the war by the fact that they couldn't get to our downed pilot inside their own country for two days.

@kmele It’s Monday and Yes!

But are they still gonna do the White House Easter Egg Roll today? 😓

I will point out that whenever Thomas Jefferson wrote “Open the Fuckin’ Strait, you crazy bastards," he did not capitalize "Fuckin'" and he spelled it fully out, as in "fucking." Otherwise, precise historical continuity.

@APompliano Anybody not celebrating this or calling it a failure because they scuttled a couple planes is a foreigner or a traitor and should be blocked.

Imagine being the downed American crew member in Iran. You only have your pistol, a tracking beacon, and a special communications device. The mission is to evade being captured by an entire country that is looking for you. And not only do you successfully do it, but your boys fly in and extract you without a single American being injured. So badass.

@emeriticus @ggreenwald @lord_curzon @ggreenwald might lick your toes though

@emeriticus @ggreenwald @lord_curzon He’s not going to fuck you Pedro

It doesn't matter how many different ways and different people JD Vance uses to try to signal that he's not in favor of this war. This will be a permanent part of his legacy and will make it a joke if he tries to occupy some sort of anti-war, anti-interventionist populist lane.

@Hack_3bd @mosha3324 It’d be more compelling if these weren’t scuttled aircraft that we flew right up your butt while you helplessly watched

@mosha3324 ابلع موشي ابلع

@FmrRepMTG @ZaidJilani You should go on MSNow and deliver this message to their 104 viewers.

On Easter morning, this is what President Trump posted. Everyone in his administration that claims to be a Christian needs to fall on their knees and beg forgiveness from God and stop worshipping the President and intervene in Trump’s madness. I know all of you and him and he has gone insane, and all of you are complicit. I’m not defending Iran but let’s be honest about all of this. The Strait is closed because the US and Israel started the unprovoked war against Iran based on the same nuclear lies they’ve been telling for decades, that any moment Iran would develop a nuclear weapon. You know who has nuclear weapons? Israel. They are more than capable of defending themselves without the US having to fight their wars, kill innocent people and children, and pay for it. Trump threatening to bomb power plants and bridges hurts the Iranian people, the very people Trump claimed he was freeing. On Easter, of all days, we as Christians should be reminded that the son of God died and rose from the grave so that we can be forgiven once and for all of our sins. Jesus commanded us to love one another and forgive one another. Even our enemies. Our President is not a Christian and his words and actions should not be supported by Christians. Christians in the administration should be pursuing peace. Urging the President to make peace. Not escalating war that is hurting people. This NOT what we promised the American people when they overwhelmingly voted in 2024, I know, I was there more than most. This is not making America great again, this is evil.

@ChrisMurphyCT @ZaidJilani Chris Murphy, ngmi

If I were in Trump's Cabinet, I would spend Easter calling constitutional lawyers about the 25th Amendment. This is completely, utterly unhinged. He's already killed thousands. He's going to kill thousands more.

@TonerousHyus @varadmehta So we can just set up air bases on Iran at will and then blow them up when we’re done

cope and seethe, nerd

@mb_ghalibaf The only reason Tehran isn’t leveled is because of the grace of the United States. Tick Tock you’ve got 24 hours to make a deal.

If the United States gets three more victories like this, it will be utterly ruined. 👏

@primerano40x @TrumpDailyPosts I think after Venezuela and Iran it’s time to retire TACO, don’t you think?

@TrumpDailyPosts You gave 48 hours, then TACO'd to 5 days, then TACO'd to 10 days. Fucking liar

Donald J. Trump Truth Social 04:04.26 10:05 AM EST Remember when I gave Iran ten days to MAKE A DEAL or OPEN UP THE HORMUZ STRAIT. Time is running out - 48 hours before all Hell will reign down on them. Glory be to GOD! President DONALD J. TRUMP

@TonerousHyus @IBeBibby This is about where I am. Bring them to their knees.

@IBeBibby I don’t really care anymore. Just kill everyone

Trump needs to kill you tonight

@IRMilitaryMedia @FistedFoucault We’re literally taking out bridges and releasing skyscraper high explosions over your capitol every night. Oh no, you took out one plane. Guess we’ll have to use the other 13,999 in our military.

Guess what?
