The god of deer offers a different gospel than the god of wolves. Yet God is father to both deer and wolf.

Really there's no fraud when you think about the case - the donors wanted to fight scary, cartoonish "right wing extremism" like they see on Law & Order and you can't do that unless there's scary cartoonish right wing extremism to fight SPLC is in the entertainment business Unfortunately the donors aren't in on the joke - actually, almost our entire society isn't in on the joke...

“The hand-mill gives you society with the feudal lord; the steam-mill society with the industrial capitalist.” The only thing wokies like about this is that last century it produced jargon that coincided with bureaucratization, which gave them schoolmarm jobs & schoolmarm slogans

The only people who believe in “dialectical materialism”—the idea that history develops thru transformations of the means of production, which produce class conflicts that then produce further such transformations—are hoe-scaring subsets of libertarians & fascists, not “Marxists”

Libertarians need to focus on the real enemy: the poor

This is a great point actually.

“UBI is coming.” No it isn’t. UBI has been here for decades already. You don’t need to work to eat. You can just fill out some forms. Need health care? Just show up in the emergency room. If you want to understand the social change wrought by UBI, just look around.

Libs: “we need to make Trump look bad” Journalist: “hey get a shot where he’s wearing royal purple and looks taller than a jumbo jet and has a 10 foot dick and everyone around him is kneeling or staring in awe”

What if @Howlingmutant0 was actually an ugly beast before the doxx, and it was true love that broke the spell? I bet that's what happened.

Suffered for decades with near continuous sinus/throat infections because "maybe we do too many tonsillectomies" turned into "only old-fashioned morons still do tonsillectomies". Unfortunately, MDs are mostly midwit compliance-maxxers who don't do subtle distinctions if they can avoid it. x.com/SumElseThing1/…

I can’t believe tonsil surgery used to be a routine, not for very good reasons kind of surgery. It’s absolute torture for parents and kid alike.

Intelligence = Education Education = Compliance By the transitive property of vague cultural consensus: Intelligence = Compliance QED

Found on the boardwalk of the Jersey shore today. Can't believe they still make these! I wanted to buy them, but didn't want to explain to my children that smoking is cool. 🚬😎

Like wanye I'm not 'against' property tax per se, no more than other taxes, it's just that everyone arguing with him via 'Georgist' principles or enamored of 'land-value tax' or whatever, clearly has a background premise that Everything Is De Facto Owned By The State. And look, it's ok for that to be your starting premise, I guess, but then just admit you're a totalizing commie. Lay your cards on the table so we see clearly where we, respectively, stand; don't waste peoples' time pretending you're interested in marginal 'efficiencies' or whatever. You think the state by default owns everything, just say that.

@duncanreyburn Looking around, I see nothing to distinguish this from the current state of a data structure with the shape of consciousness. It's not a hard problem, people just don't like the answer.

A gaggle of stupidities entered the comments section of this tweet, including declarations that philosophy isn’t worth anything and that consciousness is reducible to computation. Please, for crying out loud, do the reading.

The per capita tax burden in the United States is ~$16,600 Eliminate all social welfare and it falls to ~$3,500 The primary purpose of the United States government is violent wealth redistribution

Don't listen to those who warn of the grave hardships of parenting. "Just wait until he's born." "Just wait until he's walking." "Just wait until he's 2." "Just wait until you have a toddler and an infant." Those people suck. Nothing is made easier with dread. Observe the changes as they come. Appreciate them. Respond to them. And know that change will continue.

Eventually, the fridge always defeats the TV. History knows no exceptions. The Iran war is an aperture onto the collapse of universalism as a credible organizing fiction, and the gated order emerging in its place. Nominalism is the metaphysics of universal collapse. Neo-feudalism is the political structure of the returning gate. Archeofuturism is the style of that return under advanced technics. The Gated Age is live on Turbulence 👇

Trump is simultaneously the defender of the Vatican, Jerusalem, and Mecca. Like, literally.
