New RFK podcast appearance

edit: Trump offered him VP repeatedly, but he refused, because he believed his wife was going to divorce him if he did so.

Fucking women being women, as usual, and ruining things for everyone.
I am forced to re-post this meme:

edit: LMAO he explained the same thing Alex Jones tried to with the "they're turning the frogs gay!", but in a serious way. I was hoping he'd say the line too, but no luck.

edit: Dude's sharp as hell for his age. He's full of energy and enthusiasm here.
I'll give him a lot of credit for keeping his marriage intact. If Trump wins and RFK does take a big position in his administration, Cheryl's career is cooked. I wonder if she'll stay if she has to risk Hollywood blacklisting her completely. It's not the same level of course but look at the hell Melania has gone and continues to go through, and while Vance's wife is somewhat protected for being POC she's not immune to attacks.
Ouch.

Tomorrow's wall shenanigans is gonna SUCK too.
The MSDNC interview, right? Yikes.

As an aside since the WNBA has been mentioned: Caitlyn Clark and her team were eliminated from the playoffs (didn't watch but Clark fans think the refs handed the opposition the game) and like they've done all season, the players started griping about the Fever's fans hurling racist slurs at them while they're playing. I'm not going to get into all the stuff that's been going on all season, but suffice to say that since Clark came into the league and elevated the viewership and the gameplay of her team, the players and pundits have been attacking the fans for being racist. It's like what's going on with MAGA supporters--they're going beyond Trump and going after them.

I eagerly await the massive ratings slide that's going to occur now that Caitlyn's season is done. She should have just gone to Europe or joined Ice Cube's league. Her fans aren't going to forget that they've been called racists and horrible, terrible people just for supporting a 20 year failed league.

Lots of interesting things. Men who own cats are more likely to support Trump, while men who own dogs are more likely to support Harris. A wider margin of married women with dogs support Trump compares to cat owning married women. Unmarried cat woman support Harris by D+37.
I knew all the cats I have owned through my life were making me racist... I knew it.... If only I had owned dogs instead I could have been an ally.

Speaking of The Cunt…

(Great choice of picture, Faux. Very appropriate.)

The only mask that has come off is yours, twat. At least when you first made the remark during that fundraiser, you tried to walk it back (even though said attempts were a pack of lies…but at least some effort was made). Now, you can’t help but publicly flex your hatred and disgust for Americans openly.

Die from a hellish mix of cervical/ovarian/uterine/breast cancer and AIDS (courtesy of your husband), you dangerous, bitter, dried-up, totalitarian CUNT.
Hillary is sounding a bit like MovieBob, which I'm sure he'll tweet out his thoughts.
 
I don't think Hitler was some great man, but i do think it's important to give him a fair hearing. Hell, I'm nto even sure I believe that, but I do think he might be worth a look to see more what made him do what he did instead of just "one day for no reason at all hitler and the germans lost their shit"
Even if you don't want to give him a fair shot, teaching why it happened and how he got so much support - the context prior, what he said in his speeches, how he came to power - is important for pattern recognition.

It can help innoculate people against it happening again. It's the most vital aspect of learning about history because patterns do establish themselves.

In school, I didn't learn much about anything regarding that. I didn't read any of his speeches. No one said "yeah his speeches sounded convincing and got people angry over the state of their country, that's why they were so dangerous because of where that lead".

The fall of the Roman Empire was closer to learning about that stuff and we were encouraged to think about why it happened and what contributed. But Hitler was a total brain shut off zone. Really makes you think.

Weimar Germany was always yadda-yadda'd over as things mostly focused on the Great Depression in the United States. People always miss the point that it was Weimar's shoddy operations that allowed someone like Hitler to gain power.

Violent revolutionaries with plans to completely reshape the government almost never happen in stable countries with competent leadership.

I am late but here is an answer to your question. The majority harbor a deep disdain for him, as he made bold promises like many politicians but mismanaged funds and was corrupt. His negligence in covering his tracks and the animosity of the wider political establishment in New York ultimately led to his downfall. New York was already fucked long before he came.

I know he was in favor of "pedestrianizing" a bunch of NYC streets instead of focusing on the real issues, and as it turns out normies really hate that shit.
 
Rate me late, but we've moved into the "it's a good thing, actually" period of the Haitians eating cats saga.


as a first-generation immigrant and one of those academicky, social scientist types who likes to think really hard for fun, I’d argue that even if there was — hypothetically — a case of someone uninformed or desperate enough to eat, say, a duck from a pond, wouldn’t that say more about their circumstances than anything about their character?
The circumstances that they were flown in, given thousands of dollars a month and free/cheap housing from the government?

Once upon a time, I was new to this country, and in a small town in the middle of this great land, I remember stealing an egg from a nest in a public park. I didn’t do this as a prank, as maybe some other child may have done. I did it for the sole purpose of eating it, because as many Asian people or most foodies can tell you, eggs laid by fowl that are not named “chicken” are extra delicious and extra expensive. Yolky, darkly yellow and exceedingly rich, they make cheap chicken eggs taste like balls of chalk by comparison.
This bitch stole a goose egg from a public park because it was extra expensive and better than chicken eggs. That doesn't sound like someone doing it out of desperation to survive.
We survived and lived to relish the salted goose egg as the extravagance that it was, especially during an era when our family of three lived off a single post-doc salary meant for one broke graduate student.
Shocker, at least one of her parents was a grad student that SHOULD KNOW BETTER. Again, maybe it's not the circumstances, but rather the character of the people doing this.

She spends the rest of the article going into psychological biases that she only applies to one group because it helps her (very flimsy) point.

honestly if Hitler had just removed jews from Germany and stayed in Germany without the whole trying to conquer europe thing I think he would have been fine. He was literally elected to fight the same exact shit we are facing today. I don't know all his policies but from what I understand the people liked him a lot.

Moral of the story. Don't do drugs. Not as many as Hitler.
 
Got to make sure you put people into football stadiums so they all get abused by minorities.
Lol yeah.

Realistically a stadium is just a wide open space protected from the elements that also has controlled points of entry. It allows you to take a better count, and the organized layout allows for pretty effective medical triage. Declaring which stadium is the designated disaster area is step 1 of a million in an emergency management plan.

Accurate counts are important for a whole lot of things, but for ICS/NIMS purposes it's for requesting accurate resources, and to some extent to even run it against census data to know who is missing.
