Ours is a culture of complacency. Even where demonstrably untrue, we for generations regard ourselves as number one in all aspects of nationhood. The propaganda works as designed. We don't expect more because we already think this is as good as it gets.

This allows the slow erosion of rights and denial of progress that we've seen over the last 50 years. We won't be protesting or demanding things most democracies would consider mandatory. We're too busy trying to get by at this point.

From the description:

one wouldn’t expect an imaginary little creature from the 12th century to still hold relevance in modern society. And yet the word of the year was ‘goblin mode.’ So, what is it about these freaky dudes that have kept them a fixture of popular culture?

His supporters will require Olympic level mental gymnastics to dispel the unease they're gonna get if they even hear about this. Backing down from a debate looks cowardly no matter what his lame excuse and they'll feel the truth of that.

How soon until he refers to Harris as "Hillary" or his other nemesis "Nancy"?

I know that this is vile and sick and cruel but goddamn, that headline is so fucking batshit stupid I laughed out loud.

What a colossal dipshit.

Sometimes when you translate something into another medium, a weakness you might have overlooked is exposed.

Conservatives, I understand. They're sick, and toxic, but they fight for what they believe in. Which is why we have to defeat them, and why we have to fight back so hard.

But Liberals, man, I just don't get it. Like zero goddamn fight in them. No political will. Not in my lifetime anyway. "Hey we're kinda less shitty than fascists, vote Democrat."

And I have to, but like, only to keep from sliding into the abyss in my own lifetime. So inspiring. Time to start over.

You would think that this trial would hold his interest

  • it's about himself
  • his name is mentioned repeatedly
  • gives him an excuse to play victim
