Anyway: The funny thing about this, is you can tell that it is a simple way to try to deflect that Walz is a shit sucking coward. The core of this is trying to claim that going to Iraq has no actual meaning. That he was never in danger. It's the "dude sitting in an air conditioned office..." part too. It acts as if the pictures that the Marines post are just taken from thin air. The problem is, the combat correspondents get killed, and one of the most well known in fiction is Pvt Joker.

Wasn‘t there a problem with random soldiers taking photos of themselves and posting them online without scrubbing the geolocation data? You know…the data that gives away their position? Which leads to those “safe, air conditioned“ areas being attacked? Doesn’t that give the combat correspondent‘s job even more reason to exist? I don’t recall any data breaches involving that particular role ever being on the news, so correct me if I am wrong.

So it is basically virtually useless and little more than libertarians' mythical NAP that the US government just hasn't taken the plunge and totally cast aside yet?

If you want to ignore all the court cases that ruled laws unconstitutional, including some of the most notorious in recent years such as Dobbs or Bruen, and all the thousands of section 1983 suits I just mentioned. Then sure, yeah, completely useless, utterly pointless, we may as well just give up and go back to being part of the commonwealth.

But guess what? If we ignore all the people put in prison because of criminal laws, then those seem pretty pointless too.

Marx was a self hating Jew. You and I know it to be true. How else do you describe pilfering off subsidized communalism. I am joking a bit but seriously both his parents were Jewish and raised him in a Jewish household. He can denounce it all he wants he’s still a dirty Jew.

People were getting their cars firebombed because of Trump stickers so that may have something to do with it. It's why I don't have one on mine, despite really enjoying the idea of causing malignant hypertension in N-95-wearing wine aunts driving red Kia Souls.

I bought some adhesive backed 8x11 magnetic sheets from the craft store. I have a bunch of pro Trump bumper stickers that I made completely magnetic backed with this. I stick them on my car so when I'm driving I can cause maximum rage (Especially if I see a car covered with "Fuck Trump" or pro Biden stickers, I cut in front of them so they have to read the ones on the back of my car. Then when I get to where I'm going and I park, I just pull them off and toss them in my trunk.

Call me a pussy but I don't have the time to deal with coming out of the mall or a gig and having my car keyed and my tires slashed. Lefties are truly unhinged.

Someone once did this during the summer of love. When Antifa and BLM were burning everything down, someone found where all the Antifa members had parked and went along slapping Trump stickers on them only for the owners to come back and find their cars completely trashed.

I wish I could find it but there was one chick on Twitter crying about it and about how she needs her car for work and now it's completely trashed- the windows broken and tires slashed - and now she can't get to work. The kicker was that there was zero self awareness. She wasn't like, "Now that it was done to me, I understand I shouldn't trash other people's property". No, in fact she was raging at whoever put the Trump stickers on her car that forced her friends to trash it. That person is the real bastard! Not even her friends who trashed it - they had no choice! I mean, that's a level of lack of self-awareness that can't be measured with conventional tools.

I understand the philosophy, "I just want to be left alone and grill, man. You do you." The problem with that mentality as we have seen, though, is that these people won't leave you alone

Boomers voted correctly at the time given their choices, don't get me wrong.

But they completely ignored the culture and they completely failed to challenge lefties and just let them run amuck to influence the future generations through all forms of media and corporations.

The problem is no one saw the internet coming. The internet pushes this shit in your face 24/7 and it's only gotten worse. A friend of mine said to me not long ago, "Man I see kids fighting hardcore about politics...what the fuck? When I was that age, all I cared about was getting laid. I never gave a shit about politics". I told him that with the internet, that shit is being pushed on them nonstop and they get sucked into it.

Hell, I don't even frequent all the forums I used to. I used to go to music forums, some gear forums, even a Gen X forum for nostalgia. Without fail for the past 8 years almost daily there's a 100% chance that the longer you read a thread the greater the chance you will see a post tying some crazy bullshit into what a piece of shit Trump is. Yes, even in the Gen X forum where I thought they'd know better - my Gen X brothers and sisters have embarrassed me. I just want to be left alone to enjoy some talking about topics I like. It's impossible these days. And it's much worse than it was 5 years ago.

As to the Archie Bunker conversation (which I forgot to add to multi quote) - people identified with Archie because for a lot of blue collar people the "I don't like them but live and let live" was a normal attitude. Hell, my parents talked endless shit about "spooks" and indians (who my father insisted to the day he died that Indians are shitty drivers because they're used to driving elephants) yet if one rang our doorbell looking for help, or if they were lost and needed directions, my parents were always cordial and helped them. When I once questioned my mother about how I thought they hated them, why would you help them, she told me pretty much, "I don't hate them. I don't hate anyone. They're people. I just don't want to live with them". And of course that Harvard study that's been pretty much memoryholed has proven that when all ethnic groups create their own neighborhoods and stick to them, society as a whole benefits.

My point being why would a self hating Jew use "Jewish ideals" for communism?

His school of philosophy was chock full of Jews even if he was self-hating. I’m not a huge Solzhenitsyn fan, but a large number of the higher up Soviets were Jews who basically bought into a new religion.

Based Briefing: The Harris Campaign House of Cards​


The honeymoon period for the Harris campaign is coming to an end. If you read the tea leaves and can see through the propaganda of the Regime media apparatus you’ll witness a campaign that is built on a house of cards. The left, and sadly many on the right, would love for you to believe that a candidate who was polling at 3% when she ran for President in 2020 is a breakout political star destined to be President, but the moves from her campaign paint a desperate and frantic picture of a campaign in disarray.


Kamala Harris’s campaign has adopted a more assertive stance on border issues out of nowhere, which is an obvious attempt to appeal to a broader base by adopting a tough-on-immigration rhetoric. This strategy is reminiscent of Trump’s nearly decade long approach, which is heavily focused on border security and immigration issues.

Then there’s that hat.

By donning symbolic attire like a camo hat, Harris seems to be signaling a shift towards a more populist image, aiming to resonate with center right voters who prioritize national security and immigration control.

One of the most discussed moves by the Harris campaign is her endorsement of eliminating taxes on tips for service workers, a policy initially proposed by Trump. During a rally in Las Vegas, Harris announced her support for this idea, which has been seen as a direct borrowing from Trump’s playbook. This move has sparked debate about the originality and confidence of her campaign strategy, as it appears to adopt a policy from a political opponent rather than presenting a distinct platform.

Speaking of her platform: she doesn’t have one. If you visit her website you’ll find a donate button, a bio of her and Governor Walz, and a shop with merchandise. Mimicking elements of Trump’s platform suggests a lack of innovative ideas and could be perceived as a sign of weakness. Winning campaigns typically distinguish themselves with unique messaging and policies rather than borrowing from opponents. Furthermore, the shift towards right-wing populism may transform the race into a contest of who can better embody these ideals. This could potentially alienate some of Harris’s traditional progressive base while attempting to capture undecided or swing voters.

These simply aren’t the moves of a confident campaign that is sailing to victory.

In the 2016 presidential election, Donald Trump faced significant challenges in the polls by the end of August. At that time, Hillary Clinton was leading Trump by notable margins in several key battleground states. For instance, a Washington Post poll indicated that Clinton was ahead by 14 points in Virginia, and a Monmouth University poll showed her with a 9-point lead in Florida, highlighting the uphill battle Trump faced.

Amidst these challenges, the Trump campaign underwent a significant shift in strategy with the appointment of Steve Bannon as the campaign’s chief executive in mid-August 2016. Bannon, known for his populist and aggressive campaign style, brought a new energy and focus to Trump’s campaign. His influence was seen as pivotal in refocusing the campaign’s message and strategy, which included doubling down on Trump’s core themes of anti-establishment rhetoric and appealing to working-class voters. The impact of Bannon’s leadership became apparent in the following weeks.

By September, Trump began to close the gap in the polls, as his campaign effectively capitalized on controversies surrounding Clinton and emphasized issues like immigration and trade that resonated with his base. This strategic pivot was crucial in turning the tide and setting the stage for Trump’s eventual victory in the Electoral College, despite losing the popular vote.

Bannon’s role in the campaign underscored the importance of strategic leadership and messaging in political campaigns, demonstrating how a shift in approach can significantly alter the dynamics of an election. This period marked a turning point for Trump, as his campaign gained momentum and ultimately led to his victory in November 2016.

The Trump campaign needs to follow this playbook again to win. According to Nate Silver: “Our forecast thinks Trump has a 46% chance of winning the Electoral College, but that jumps to 96% when he wins Pennsylvania.” In other words: Harris has a 4% chance of winning if she loses Pennsylvania.



The Trump campaign needs to go all in on PA and in order to do that they need to go all in on White men. As a White man from PA allow me to give some free advice to the Trump campaign on how to get my people energized to vote for him.

If you focus on these three things you will win the White male vote in PA and thus win the Presidency.

–Push mass deportations hard. We all notice the areas of PA that we grew up in are increasingly looking like third-world countries. We want our home back and we want these criminal foreigners out, now.

–“It’s the economy, stupid.” Many working class White men are struggling to get by with the crazy inflation and stagnate wages. Tell us how you are going to fix it.

–Anti-White hatred. No one speaks for us on this issue. Don’t mask the problem by calling it “wokeness” or “DEI” or whatever. Call it what it is: anti-White hatred and tell us how you are going to put a stop to White men being treated like second class citizens in the country they built. Show us the respect and appreciation that we deserve and have not gotten from any politician in decades.

There’s a lot of time left. In the past month alone we’ve seen three political “black swan” events unfold before our eyes. We absolutely will see more of them before election day. I emphasize again how important it is to stay focused, stay energized, and stay positive. Many on the right are being astroturfed and baited into sharing the enemy’s propaganda on their behalf. Please stop doing this. We’re up against a trillion dollar propaganda machine don’t make their job easier by getting their messaging out for them. It’s designed to demoralize our people and galvanize theirs. Stay laser focused on positive messaging and on encouraging everyone you to know to get out and vote.

We are going to win.

tbh the idea that people are getting more invested in the political process probably isn't THAT bad, it's more about how it manifests
like I recall when they were looking at ending the clochure thingy in the senate around the canadian truck rallies, we were all watching cspan, drinking, and nerding it up as things happened, and really that's kind of where we should aim to be, where the common man is active enough to really watch and comment as part of their free time, we just need to try to do it without wanting to murder each other over it

and giving fucks about your local stuff as much as your national stuff

Yeah and they tried to kill the old religion. Look up the Red Haggadah and Red Seders. The bundists were genuinely evil.
