  • Just for a frame of reference for my European friends, the Whitehouse is a 42 hour drive through 11 states for me right now. Each one of those 11 states is politically unique. Organizing this country is not nearly as simple as everyone else on the planet seems to think. Furthermore, preventing us from organizing is one third of the planets billionaires, who’s interests lie definitively in our being fragmented, over worked, and exploitable.


  • Even in a world where what Bondi says is accurate, that ilegal immigrants are uniquely fraudulent in Minnesota in particular, how does looking at medicaid records, and snap records, and voter roles help? Can illegal immigrants even register to vote? Aren’t they famously, eponymously, undocumented? And besides all that, what the hell does this have to do with the shootings? They were both American citizens, and neither are being accused even by the lie factory of defrauding anyone?

    They always play the victim, and spam the debate with red herrings and jingoistic gibberish, which is annoying enough at face value, but I find it really obnoxious how effective it seems to be.











  • This is actually brought up in the bible, oddly enough:

    And the people stood by, watching; but the leaders scoffed at him, saying, “He saved others; let him save himself if he is the Messiahc of God, his chosen one!” The soldiers also mocked him, coming up and offering him sour wine, and saying, “If you are the King of the Jews, save yourself!” There was also an inscription over him, “This is the King of the Jews.”


  • This, but unironically, Jesus was essentially mocked by the cops on the cross. So this type of behavior was covered rather clearly and counter indicated.

    Two others also, who were criminals, were led away to be put to death with him. When they came to the place that is called The Skull, they crucified Jesus there with the criminals, one on his right and one on his left. Then Jesus said, “Father, forgive them; for they do not know what they are doing." And they cast lots to divide his clothing. And the people stood by, watching; but the leaders scoffed at him, saying, “He saved others; let him save himself if he is the Messiahc of God, his chosen one!” The soldiers also mocked him, coming up and offering him sour wine, and saying, “If you are the King of the Jews, save yourself!” There was also an inscription over him, “This is the King of the Jews.”

    From Luke 32
