That also raises a good question. Why the fuck were major sports team owners getting any flavor of tax breaks at all especially under decades of on and off dem admins?

That and I thought he was benefiting all the billionaires and having a big money party with money skimmed from the little guys?
Which is why he needs... less of the little guy's money given to the government he's running, and to aggressively track down where money is going to... Millionaires and billionaires?

Fellas I think reddit lied to me again. (:_(
Oh for fuck’s sake. This is why the NFL became gay as shit. This is why the kneeling nonsense got pushed. The owners had to pay back the money somehow and social engineering is what they had to do.
 
Jesus, USAID was funding leftie journos to essentially do body language analysis. I thought that was a pseudoscience? Guess it doesn't matter when it can be used against your opponents.
The communists greatest dreams are mind control and mind reading. If they could prove you are wrong thinking and then change how you think that would make their dogshit ideology feasible. The USSR poured a lot of resources in pseudo science and political prisoners recount crazy shit like contraptions with flashing light bulbs to try and control their minds.
 
"Second religiosity" is one of the signs of a dying empire/country according to Spengler. Americans are just oddly unaware what they're doing, but maybe it cannot be otherwise. The desire to recreate terms and conditions when a nation was in ascendancy CANNOT be replicated because they always occur naturally, organically and in a set timeframe of these or those geopolitical conditions. And no, the Renaissance was not a return of Rome but its own thing inspired by it and it took on very local character and operated locally (city states.)

What is actually happening in the US is the abolition of the US and it's gradual but inexorable parceling out of authority among its oligarchical class, like what happened when the Soviet Union fell or how the Roman Empire legislated itself out of existence.
The spenglerian cycle has already occurred multiple times throughout American history, because America isn't one empire but many subsequent ones. The articles of confederation, the civil war, WW2, the civil rights movement, America died during each of these moments in history and was replaced by another emprie with the same name. The same will probably occur after Trump. If you don't believe me, try to explain how FDR monopolizing the presidency for over a decade and creating governmental agencies out of thin air to control the nation wasnt a ceasar "parceling power out to his oligarchs."

And in terms of second religiosity, we've already passed that point. The last "tyranny of reason" phase was the rise of new atheism that phased out Christianity from all facets of public life in favor of "logic and reason" and social grievance. The second religiosity was the rise of new leftism. We've had 60 years of people rejecting observable reality to substitute in their own identity based one, people being encouraged to find THEIR truth instead of THE truth. Even the obvious fact that a dick is a male body part was thrown out in favor of a fanatical adherence to the sacred cow of personal truth. It was a dead, atheistic spiritualism with vague Christian trappings, e.g. the rebranding of original sin to privilege. You really want to try and say that wasn't an era of second religiousness? Keep in mind that folks were LITERALLY bowing and praying to black people during the Floyd protests.

Trump isn't the end of a the current American empire, he's the start of the next one. He's an outside element injecting energy into a system that's been ravaged by entropy for over half a century.

wait is this why so many newer ex-service members troon out
 
Some good sperging here, too.
For the life of me, I will never understand why the majority of African Americans stan for Gaza. Is it just 'cause of Farrakan's influence brairotting them to be antisemitic/blame all their life's problems on Jews?

Like, they do realize Palestinians (being Arabs) despise black people and many modern Middle Eastern countries are actually pretty cool with the whole slavery thing (i.e. the Kafala system)? Like, if a hypothetical Palestine existed instead of Israel, I could tell you what it's black citizens would be doing - picking the cotton fields for very little, if any pay (Israel's arid climate is well suited for growing the luxury cotton varieties i.e. Egyptian cotton).

black ppl have no idea how good they have it in the US compared to being in the shitholes they would be without being taken to America
 
Chicago's mayor Brandon Johnson says that Chicago will remain a Sanctuary City even under the onerous and illegal threats of Donald Trump.

Despite having spent almost a billion dollars on housing all these illegals, not minding that his city is current posting a 500 million dollar deficit and a massive incoming property tax hike to help pay for the housing and care of an ever growing number of illegal aliens Johnson says;

"Regardless of who is in the White House, Chicago is a city that opens its arms to people from around the globe. We will continue to protect civil and human rights, and we welcome all individuals and families who want to work, live and thrive here in our beloved city. The Welcoming City Ordinance is a law, and it is the law of the land here in Chicago. We will uphold it, along with the complementary Illinois Trust Act to ensure that our immigrant communities are safe."


Trump Border Czar Tom Homan reposted as an response to Johnson's theatrics.



I think I might be in love with man
Solution: cut funding. Hold the local government accountable for obstruction of justice. They want to withhold criminals, treat the whole city as criminals.
 
This is probably the biggest redpill I've taken in my nearly 5 years on KF.
you mean the site every mainstream blue check mark and the literally country of New Zeland bullied? why the fuck would you support a website that the payment processors ostracized?

Beyond that you know who else was bullied? the Jan 6th protestors, clearly you agree that they deserved that too right?

But some smug, shit-eating Redditor or professor will still look me in the eye and say, "your ancestors were villains", because....people not even related to me who died 200 years owned slaves.
and if you poll a majority of "experts" or "teachers" they'd agree with that view, and the people disagreeing would be in a small minority who would be mocked as bad as the westboro baptist church folks, who if you actually looked into their views were just the JK Rowling of their day.

But much like how you can't bully trannies in the 2020s, you couldn't go after the gays in the 2000s and now every zoomer would think you're a fucking weirdo for having any qualms about trannies in general.

This is the whole "bullying is good" mentality, most examples prove its wrong and ultimately lead to groupthink, its reddit style mentality but in real life. the people back in the 1970s saying "it shouldn't be legal for husbands to rape their wives" were mocked as well but ultimately i'd say most users here would agree with those "radical feminists"

And while yes, some fringe views of the 1970s deserved to be mocked, the problem is groupthink very rarely can accurately determine who's bad and who's got the right idea. even worse is much like reddit, in real life people with enough social Cachet can determine what's good and what's bad and as we saw during Covid, its very easy if not the norm for bad actors to be the ones determining who gets to be mocked and who isn't.

Look at chris-chan, in real life people didn't bully him, and his parents had the galpals to make sure he wasn't bullied in school, but the kid who'd mock that faggot would have been ostracized

I can asspull half answer a slight influence of this with a true-ism.

Black men turn to islam for the same reasons white men turn into fedora tipping level athiests with a sprinkle of black panther cultural larping to push it along

1) Feeling like the smartest most enlightened guy in the room.
2) Fuck you mom and dad I hate going to church on sunday.

Milder ones fall into lock step with MLK with one faith line, black scholars larp Malcom X known muslim with the other.
And if they're not walking the path of the bean pie merchants of the past then it's because they are simply retarded and bought partially into the nonwhite liberal kumbaya all people of color are in it together spiel.

"The white devil is the most racist group so surely someone closer to my color will embrace me and not laugh as they explain to me why they don't have any black people in their nations despite owning slaves too."
 
With the whole rebuilding the Gaza strip, do you think they're going to build the 3rd temple? This coupled with the Project Stargate AI program, I have a feeling Israel and the USA is going to bring about the anti-Christ (or, at least trying to anyways.)
Pretty sure the antichrist is going to end up being some institution picking up the bill for everything the USAID was funding.
