After the Floyd riots the right was convinced that there was no way in hell Biden could win, even with all the "fortification." People were fed up with the lockdowns, the incompetence of the stimulus, the brazen favoritism shown towards lefty domestic terrorists, the crime spikes, the incessant lies, etc. 2020 was supposed to be a slam dunk, as progressives could have hardly done a worse job on the PR front, you even had record levels of new gun owners.
But they went and stole it, and they did it so brazenly. Then the feds instigated J6, which prevented anyone in Congress from being able to contest the results and demand an investigation, and the federal and SCOTUS justices showed themselves to be cowards who would rather let the country fall into the hands of these demons than face the wrath of the NPC mobs.
It's wild to me seeing MAGA fanboys talk like this time it's different, after so many times being let down. No, get it through your thick skulls that our enemies have no shame, they have pride but they have no shame, and they'll do it again, because they know they can, because they'll face no consequences while the Sword of Damocles will fall onto anyone who resists. And if it becomes too obvious to deny they stole 2024, they'll say it was a good thing, because anything is justified to stop Orange Hitler.
This is a really important point to hammer home.
Yes, the feds are legitimately terrifying to have as an enemy, and if you ever end up being seen as a serious threat by them, never become overconfident or complacent.
BUT, also don't think of them as being like literal supervillains with supernatural powers and plot armor. Yes, they're extremely dangerous, but they're not invincible. And tbf, because they know that Americans by and large no longer acknowledge their moral legitimacy, the best they can do to manufacture consent at this point is to convince the public that they're omnipotent and omniscient.
That was when the History Channel was in its Hitler Channel era.
What game are you referencing, btw?
Noah Berlatsky
He's the same guy who unironically wrote the term "child sex-worker," and the context actually makes it worse. Since he was trying to tell people that somehow, alerting the police when you become aware of the existence of a "child sex-worker" ackshually puts the "child sex-worker" in danger.
Same guy has also gone on rants proclaiming that parents are fascists and tyrants, uses the term "child liberation" which has long been a euphemism for the Vaushes of the world, etc. Hell, he makes Vaush seem subtle by comparison. Guy is so creepy he'd be rejected as a cop show villain for being too on-the-nose.
Inducing cognitive dissonance can be pretty effective. Sure, in the moment anyone who's indoctrinated will just get pissy and blow you off, but planting seeds of doubt is the point of counter-propaganda. Not the unrealistic expectation of getting someone to change their mind on the spot.
Yeah but they got that from the Scots
A bit like people who get rich from "non-profits," while said "non-profits" are sponsored by corporations.
They seem to have a lot of say in skyscraper demolitions too
It's possible that Japanese universities simply share the competitive publish-or-perish dynamic of Western universities and a black historical figure in feudal Japan was simply the kind of novelty that could garner attention. Which is still corrupt but it's par for the course unfortunately.
But I might just be coping here, maybe Japan's elite are as treasonous as ours.
Funnily enough, this would unironically enrage a lot of communist dictators.
Much more interesting, and by interesting I mean funny, question is whether Hitler was gay
Now that would be amazing
Ubisoft needs to understand that that's a Houthi sword, not a Nobunigga sword
Yeah that's why commies despise the "petite bourgeois" far more than they hate even the most obscenely greedy Wall Street sharks,* small business owners are literally just workers who decided to "liberate" themselves.
*assuming that this hatred for the ultrawealthy is even sincere, after all Engels was an ultrawealthy factory owner and plenty of Marxists are literal millionaires
I've seen BlueAnon types say with the utmost sincerity that the MSM is biased in favor of conservatives. When someone is living in another galaxy like that I don't even bother engaging, it's just funny how the most legitimately insane people are the ones who support the status quo.
Faking cancer or other deadly or debilitating diseases gets you a VIP room in Hell. Who even knows how much of his life he's fabricated if he's willing to stoop that low.
What commies say they'll do once they "seize the means of production": give workers a say in how their workplace is run, distribute the fruits of their labor evenly
What commies actually do once they "seize the means of production": continue being greedy fucks while tyrannizing the workers far more severely and meticulously than the old fat cats could have ever dreamed of, while the hardest work they do themselves is being pathologically petty and a giant pain in everyone's ass
It is, even if you don't realize it. You're claiming that liberalism necessarily evolves into woke totalitarianism. Which implies that liberalism contains within itself the seeds of woke totalitarianism that will inevitably manifest through a process of internal conflict. That liberalism itself is unstable due to its contradictions which can only be resolved through a process of adversarial discourses and social conflicts.
Otherwise knows as historicism, by claiming that liberalism can only evolve in one specific direction you imply that liberalism contains a particular dialectic and that this dialectic has a fixed logical endpoint.
So you're at least in Hegelian territory.
Nah, they're the atheists who got excommunicated for rejecting feminism.
They're still libshits, like thunderfoot and Steven Pinker, and I can admittedly understand why thunderfoot in particular is hated since he's such a smarmy flaming douchebag. But the broader point is that they're the Quillette autists who want experts to run everything, just not those experts, and those experts (Cultural Marxists) are likewise disfainful of "rationalists" for being...not completely insane.
The Quillette/LessWrong crowd, think SlateStarCodex
The venom-spitting hatred these psychotics have for the "rationalist" movement which is really just the most milquetoast bunch of liberal dweebs never fails to baffle me.
She looks exactly like the one HR karen that even the other HR karens dread
Holy shit, does this guy think traditional politicians give a shit about the public? He can't be THIS fucking retarded.
You'd be surprised. The most terrifying thing about our "elites" is how many of them have become delusional enough to buy their own bullshit. They're incredibly insulated from the rest of the country and way too close to the Deep State to see it for what it is, their brains are rotted from years of being thoroughly protected from common sense.
Keeping the Jungian approach alive is pretty impressive, Marxists in academia would much rather that psychology be dominated by behaviorism and constructivism since they want to believe that human behavior can be straightforwardly manipulated like lab rats. Materialism in general has a stranglehold on the cognitive sciences, since Marxists and technocratic liberals alike resent the idea that humans are more than just biological robots.
Dude literally believes that Trump was planning to install himself as dictator on J6, and also spent months claiming that Biden isn't senile. He's cooked from all that TDS.
Not that I ever respected him as a person since I take it for granted that most media/entertainment types are horrible people, but he's really been beclowning himself hard the past couple years.
