@donna_smartt_ @other_tanner @AngletonOrchids You saying the movie that talk about emigrant experience, about religion, about the birth of the nations, about the abuse of power, about the systematic classicism, about the consequences of the war doesn't have subtext? Guess you watched it with closed eyes

However will he turn this one into a paean to Zionism?

Michael Fassbender will star in Brady Corbet’s next film, ‘The Origin of the World’ A 4-hour X-rated Western that spans 150 years.

@other_tanner @AngletonOrchids there's no way to read it because the brutalist is so shoddy it doesnt even have subtext

@AngletonOrchids woeful misreading of The Brutalist i'm afraid

@joshcozine @NotWholeMilk @barneyxbt @DevlDWG "You should stop listening to aggregate data and start listening to real people" lmao
English
@NotWholeMilk @donna_smartt_ @barneyxbt @DevlDWG no the whole point of having aggregate data is so when someone says "nuh uh because it cost me more" you can explain to them how outliers work and how that doesn't everything changed the same everywhere all at once

realizing the cost of living only went up 106% from 2001 to today which means most of that damage happened in the last 5 years. what the f*ckdid they do to us lmao
Leading Report@LeadingReport
The cost of living has risen 106% since 2001, per FORTUNE.

@barneyxbt @DevlDWG well you're wrong, zillow's rent index went from $1,340 in 2019 to $1,895 in 2026

@chunt1776 @ranmasaotome96 Obviously, I’m doing shtick as well but ultimately I just think they are overrated and not that funny

@MacelroyRo17135 @UncleScottiepoo @Home_Mentions @ContraPoints Let he who does not write angry tweets every five minutes cast the first lobotomy accusation

@donna_smartt_ @UncleScottiepoo @Home_Mentions @ContraPoints Holy fuck LMAO
Are you a bot or were you actually lobotomized at some point?

My understanding is Pelosi was initially a strong supporter of a public option, and is considered to have been instrumental in getting the ACA passed. Is that wrong?
Aaron Regunberg@AaronRegunberg
I hate to pile on cause she’s had a rough go of it but genuinely anyone who earnestly thinks that Nancy Pelosi would have passed single payer if she had her way doesn’t have enough of a basic understanding of the world to have any business being a political commentator.

@ContraPoints You would rather side with genocide than a GOP member
English
Happy to be proven wrong, but I predict that allying with Marjorie Taylor Greene will prove unrewarding
Ryan Grim@ryangrim
MTG sacrificed her political career to stand against genocide, against Trump, against the Epstein Class, and to defend the survivors of Epstein’s trafficking. If that doesn’t earn credibility I don’t know what possibly could.
English
@UncleScottiepoo @Home_Mentions @ContraPoints Ryan Grim is one of the only reporters doing good work now, and you are a dork with "Gen X" in their bio
English
@Home_Mentions @ContraPoints Calling someone else stupid while quoting Ryan Grim as your evidence is radioactive-grade irony.

@ContraPoints This is a worse framing than hers, because she said she stands by the clips. Whom is misframing who?
English
I point out that this is a blatant misrepresentation, and she blames her producer. x.com/briebriejoy/st…
Briahna Joy Gray@briebriejoy
I'm genuinely sorry you feel that way Natalie. I ask for three clips from every episode from my producer and generally don't direct which ones he clips. (This week I did specifically ask for an additional "super cut" clip.) If there's a clip/time stamps that you think is more representative of our conversation I'm happy to ask him to clip it.
English
So Briahna Joy Grey, Jill Stein voter, invites me on her podcast “Bad Faith.” My friends tell me, “Don’t do it, Bad Faith is known for being bad faith.” I say I’ll do it anyway because, 1 losing debates to bad faith people is an integral part of my artistic process and 2,

What I posted on BadEmpanada's youtube account.
After you read the 2 screengrabs of what I wrote, read the next 2 which is what's on the offical BDS website.

@ContraPoints It's funny how much like JK Rowling you are now - ruined your own legacy because you simply could not shut the fuck up and stop tweeting

I’m hearing that the plan all along was to keep the Democrats out of power, and then, once they’re out of power, to tell them to Do Something
English
Seriously where are the revolutionaries? Are they at brunch?
Natalie Wynn@ContraPoints
Well I was told we didn’t need to vote because there would be a revolution if things got bad. So, I assume that’s happening? Any minute now.
English
@PodSaveAmerica Anyone else troubled that the head of the Democratic Strategic Communications Committee says he had never heard of Hasan until a few days ago? Put aside his views for a moment; he’s inarguably a major voice. A year ago the NYT said he was “a Joe Rogan of the left.”
English
Jon Lovett asks Senator Cory Booker why he said he wouldn’t go on Hasan Piker’s stream.

@ShabazzArts Watch the movie Seven Days in May. A coup could happen just not the way the movie showed it.

@viperwave Not sure if this is about he fans or the hosts.

@RoKhanna @infinite_jaz @AOC I will not be voting for you until you commit to blocking *any* weapons to Israel, Ro.
Hope your conscience finds a backbone soon.
English
@infinite_jaz @AOC No on US taxpayer money going to that as money is fungible. Israel can buy it with their own money. On offensive weapons that kill civilians, I support Sanders and Ramirez bills to block the sales.
English
I am curious if you’ve had more time to think about this since our conversation @RoKhanna, when you told me that you would not be in favor of conditioning Iron Dome funding based on Israel’s compliance with human rights law. Would you join @AOC on this pledge?
Peter Sterne@petersterne
BREAKING: At tonight’s NYC-DSA electoral forum, @AOC committed to voting against “any spending on arms for Israel, including so-called defensive capabilities.”
English
@ContraPoints They're excellent at it, they have the entire US mass media behind them. The issue is that the facts are not on their side and they can't control internet media personalities (unless your name is Natalie Wynn) and social media.

Why is Israel so bad at propaganda? Are they stupid?

I dunno the Eric Adams trash can project was a complete success?
More Perfect Union@MorePerfectUS
Zohran is cancelling the NYC Department of Social Services' $9 million contract with McKinsey. Starting in 2022 under Eric Adams the City of New York paid McKinsey $1.6 million to research trash cans.

@literaryeric @Mamdanist So the population isn't growing even with your cooked numbers
English
@Mamdanist No one really knows. Data isn’t being collected in any useful way. But births are likely 100-150,000 since the war started, and deaths 75-300,000. But no one is arguing that it isn’t around the same.
English
Hasan tweeted Hamas is 1000 times better than Israel just a few weeks ago.
Mehdi Hasan@mehdirhasan
Nick Fuentes is a Holocaust-denying Neo-Nazi who was outside the Capitol on Jan 6th and talks about bringing down the Jews and Jewry. Hasan Piker has said or done none of those things. You don’t have to like or agree with everything he says but to equate him to Fuentes is ridiculous and a form of Nazi minimization.

@TaylorLorenz i was a defender of yours for so long girl but this is the final straw lmao please grow up

@nkulw @dash_eats You're both scum but you're a Chomskyite rearguard zionist. Arguably the snake that needs it's head crushed first.

Dasha go fuck yourself, you and your moron friend have been captains of the dead baby brigade for years now

Why are they doing this???
