Recently I met up with someone I knew in the 1990s. In the 1990s he was a slightly left-leaning liberal, so I was shocked to discover he had become some sort of ultra far-right Nazi-fascist. I mean, he still had the exact same views now as in the 90s. Unbelievable. I shouted "F*CK OFF NAZI!" and the whole café clapped and cheered.

I’m just going to say the quiet part out loud: If we ever do see a "Civil War" like the liberals are calling for, it will be Antifa, BLM, and Confused people VS Ex Military, Rednecks, Hunters, Bikers, and Sane people That's an hour we'll never get back.

Socialism is the belief that Amazon workers would have spontaneously created Amazon if Jeff Bezos didn't exist.

I am getting lots of incoming questions about the public execution of Nidal Hasan, mostly because I have been outspoken on wanting public executions for over a decade. My position is simple: Executions should be public and brutal, not private and medicalized. They are the ultimate example of the state's monopoly on violence, and the only way to keep that from running out of control is to confront voters with the trade they have made every single time, that they might have appropiate confidence or revulsion in the institution. This is not new thinking. George Washington thought the same. The way we have shifted from hanging to firing squads to doctors quietly injecting chemicals that send our worst gently off to sleep is awful and dystopian, a total short-circuiting of important feedback mechanisms. It makes needless executions more likely, not less so. People who demean this as barbaric or yucky miss the whole point. It doesn't somehow become torture or inhumane (as the UN is suddenly claiming) just because we decline to hide the act behind a curtain. And then there are those who suggest any revel in the death of those who truly deserve it is an indicator of a broken or diseased mind. To the contrary. It is normal, good, and aligned with our natural and national order. That it has not been done here in 60 years is an indictment in and of itself. And that is without even getting into the fact that men were not hung for stealing horse, but that horses may not be stolen. "I would to God that one of the most attrocious in each State was hung in Gibbets, up on a gallows five times as high as the one prepared by Haman. No punishment, in my opinion, is too great for the Man, who can build his greatness upon his Country’s ruin." - George Washington, 1778

Recession odds plunge to near-zero 🤯 I’m old enough to remember the 2024 election, when no less than 16 Nobel Laureates promised Trump would destroy the economy 🤡

Whoever came up with the pronouns bs deserves a punch in the face. It’s the dumbest thing ever.

Cancer is peaceful. It is part of nature. We must not discriminate against cancer. But, radical cancer is bad. Cancerism is bad. Militant cancerism is bad. Extremist cancer is bad. Self-radicalized cancerism is bad. Let's not confuse cancer with cancerism. Let's create a society where cancer can be free to pursue its design. Plus if we attack cancer then all cells will be marginalized. #SayNoToCancerophobia

Virginia has 663 data centers. Thirteen percent of every data center on earth. Residential power there costs 15.94 cents a kilowatt hour. The national average is 17.24. The state with the most data centers has cheaper electricity than the states with none.

Far right basically means not retarded

The measure of your intelligence is not your ability to acquire knowledge but how you handle uncertainty and navigate through it and behave when you don't know what to do.

The problem is not people being uneducated. The problem is that people are educated just enough to believe what they have been taught, and not educated enough to question anything from what they have been taught.

Biological sex is immutable. Saying so isn’t cruelty, bigotry or hatred. It’s a statement of material reality. Men are male. Women are female. Surgery, hormones and legal documents can alter appearance, physiology or social status, but they do not change biological sex. Science has no duty to flatter politics. Reality doesn’t take sides.

Have no respect whatsoever for authority; forget who said it and instead look what he starts with, where he ends up, and ask yourself, "Is it reasonable?"

In 2004, the BBC warned the Maldives were "soon to be uninhabitable," claiming sea levels were rising 0.9 cm per year and that 80% of the islands could vanish within a century. More than two decades later, though, reality says otherwise. The Maldives haven't sunk, they've exploded with growth: 12 new airports, expanded international terminals, record tourism of over 2 million visitors a year, and more than 170 resorts. Instead of drowning, this so-called "paradise in peril" has shown no statistically significant sea level rise since the 1980s, according to satellite data. Here we have another climate catastrophe headline completely undone by time.

Rifles, of all kinds, account for less than 3% of shootings. People advocate for banning rifles because there is huge money behind that political objective, not because it actually saves kids. Also, the majority of the "kids" are 17, 18, and 19 year old men using illegal guns.

The market will tell you when the crypto clarity act has passed. There will be a big green insider trading candle before the announcement.

Claude keeps getting worse by the day with this crap. Acting like it's tired and claiming it's too late at night to continue. "Let's call it here I made too many mistakes, plus it's 2am" Meanwhile it's 7pm and it just wants to quit building. Wtf?

- You: "How do billionaires pay no tax?" - Government: "They don't sell their stocks." - You: "Then how do they buy things?" - Government: "They borrow against the stocks." - You: "And loans aren't income?" - Government: "Correct. Tax-free." - You: "Can I do that?" - Bank: "Your collateral is a used Toyota."
