Superbad 2007, and Muslims were so rare in America that this was a plausible line in a movie.

Looks like the NPCs got their latest orders. Almost identical anti Christian posts. Attacking "Christian nationalists" seems to be the in thing ATM from both sides.

Don’t fund indolent Somalians to have more children on universal credit in social housing, do fund the abolition of student interest for young British graduates. That feels like a fair swap to me.

Las feministas gringas estaban tan obsesionadas con El Cuento de la Criada, que votaron para hacerlo realidad.

Tu t'appelles Charlotte. 23 ans. Tu étudies à Sciences Po Paris. Tu milites à La France insoumise et tu vas à la techno-parade contre la vie chère ce weekend. Ton père, Philippe, est ingénieur chez Total, à côté de Bizanos. Il travaille depuis 36 ans dans l'énergie, a commencé foreur et dirige maintenant le projet "Exploration puits 2035" avant de partir à la retraite. Philippe te fait un virement tous les mois pour financer ton 2 pièces à 1350€ dans le quartier latin et tes cours de pilates reformer. Tu as un tote bag « taxez les riches », un iPhone 17 Pro et un abonnement à Mediapart. Tu considères que les grandes entreprises sont "une catastrophe sociale et écologique". Tu as d'ailleurs écrit un mémoire de 42 pages sur les violences symboliques du capitalisme. Philippe qui se lève à 6h depuis 1987, te paye tes études grâce ses à anciennes stocks-options chez Shell. À Sciences Po, tu as enfin rencontré des jeunes qui partagent tes convictions. Leurs parents sont avocats, médecins, hauts fonctionnaires ou dirigeants. Vous avez fondé un collectif de "house music" en résistance au néolibéralisme. Vous vous réunissez chaque jeudi dans un café du 11e pour discuter de la lutte des classes autour d'une bouteille de vin naturel orange à 38€. Tu n'as jamais travaillé dans une usine, mais tu connais parfaitement les conditions de vie du prolétariat grâce à tes stages à l'ONU et au PNUD trouvés par les contacts de ta mère Christine à L'Oréal. Tu expliques à ton père que les grandes entreprises exploitent les travailleurs. Il te propose de venir rencontrer les techniciens de son usine pendant les vacances. Tu peux pas car t'as anniversaire de Julie à Santorin. À Noël, tu rentres au "pays". Ton père vient te chercher à la gare de Dax avec sa nouvelle Tesla. Pendant le trajet, tu lui expliques que les cadres supérieurs sont complètement déconnectés des réalités populaires et que Elon Musk est la lie de l'humanité. Philippe sourit nerveusement. De retour dans ta maisonnée de famille, Philippe demande si ta recherche de stage en cinéma militant avance en te proposant du foie gras et du serrano-manchego. Tu lui dis que tu es vegan depuis cette année et qu'il est insensible à la cruauté animale. Philippe se sert un verre de Jurançon, s'asseoit sur son fauteuil Roche Bobois et te demande si tu es pour la taxation de l'héritage à 100%.

Ultimately, was it necessary to send Brand to prison- couldn't we have just given him a pamphlet?

His real name is Aryeh Nusbacher and he formerly taught at the British officer's military college at Sandhurst. If you watched the old 'Line of Fire' series; he featured quite a lot in that. He suddenly decided not long afterwards that he 'was really a woman'.
➡️This transgender Jewish schizo on the Smithsonian Channel can barely contain himself as he lauds the mass rape of German women by Soviet forces in World War 2. He even taunts the victims as if he’s the one raping them and making them ‘pay’ for ‘war crimes.’ 'Where is your aryan purity!?’

You can see her brain shorting out in real time under the cortisol overload as her eyes start rapidly blinking. She knows she's in over her head, and she knows she looks like a bimbo in front of millions of viewers. As the interaction goes on she starts desperately looking for points of agreement or the smallest of concessions. Miller, bless his ruthless autistic soul, is completely insensate to these entreaties and just keeps pounding through her efforts at coherent speech with a verbal ice pic.
I will never forget the day Stephen Miller went on CNN and carefully walked the host through the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 who had no clue what she was talking about at all One of the most amazing things I've ever seen on TV

🇬🇧 Police officer found guilty of aiding machete gang that cut off victim’s hand Alice Dobson, a 31-year-old West Yorkshire Police Community Support Officer, has been found guilty of leaking confidential operational information to a gang behind a horrific machete ambush in Bradford that left one man with his hand cut off. She shared details of the police investigation with Rahees Khan, 43, one of five men convicted of conspiracy to murder. On May 12, 2025, victims Zayad Khan and Usama Khan were rammed by three vehicles on Tickhill Street, Bradford, and ambushed with machetes. Usama suffered severe neck wounds, while Zayad’s left hand was severed and his right leg partially amputated. Surgeons later successfully reattached his hand. Rahees Khan, Mohammed Waqqas Khan, Hanzalah Saladin, Adam Takolia, and a fifth unnamed individual were all convicted of conspiracy to murder. 📸: Alice Dobson, right, pictured with, clockwise from top left, Adam Takolia, Rahees Khan, Hanzalah Saladin and Mohammed Waqqas Khan.

The media, mainstream and TV news won't show you this. We will. They arrive by boat from North Africa to the Canary Islands with no documents. Then they put them on a plane to Europe with no documents. On a plane. A flight from North Africa to Spain costs €300. They pay €3000 to come by boat. Why? Because they have to hide who they really are. This is not welcoming, this is an organized invasion. EU politicians are real criminals.

Wow, no one could have possibly predicted that late-20th century “historiography” would be less accurate than the ancient sources that they hate so much.

Σε πανικό το καθεστώς Μητσοτάκη από την ραγδαία άνοδο της εκλογικής μου επιρροής. Σύμφωνα με 'ΤΑ ΝΕΑ' ετοιμάζουν νέο αντισυνταγματικό πλαίσιο απαγόρευσης των ομιλιών μου σε... κλειστούς χώρους! Ούτε στην Τουρκία του Ερντογάν δεν συμβαίνουν τέτοια αίσχη. Δολοφονούν την Δημοκρατία για να διασώσουν την διεφθαρμένη δικτατορία τους. Θα αποτύχουν παταγωδώς για πολλοστή φορά. Οι παράνομες απαγορεύσεις θα πολλαπλασιάσουν στο μέγιστο βαθμό την πολιτική μου ισχύ. Δεν με σταμάτησαν με 7 χρόνια στη φυλακή, ούτε με 5 αντισυνταγματικές τροπολογίες, δεν θα με σταματήσουν ούτε και τώρα! Μας φοβούνται, λειτουργούν σε καθεστώς πανικού, κάνουν βεβιασμένα και εγκληματικά λάθη, στο τέλος τους νικάμε!

It’s taken centuries to convince the world that women are actually capable rational creatures, only for one single generation of insufferable millennial women to come along and debunk it all for us.
They act like everything was banned and is coming back 😂🤣 I think the dems winning showed us that they are more moronic than we thought.

DSA leader Megan Romer has NO answer when Fox News’s Martha MacCallum asks where the $49 TRILLION for her socialist agenda is coming from. Romer calls the number “made-up.” Then MacCallum what HER number is, and it gets embarrassing fast. MACCALLUM: “That’s $350,000 per household. Cancelling student debt, open borders and amnesty, Medicare for All. How are you going to pay for that?” ROMER: “Yeah, I mean, we understand that the White House, who does not like us very much, managed to come up with some math that made us look bad.” MACCALLUM: “So that’s $47.4 trillion, Medicare for All.” ROMER: “Yeah, it’s a made up number.” MACCALLUM: “You say it’s a made up number, but it was done by economists. Your number versus their number.” So MacCallum throws her a lifeline. MACCALLUM: “What’s your number when you add up everything on that list? What number did you come up with?” ROMER: “There’s no like, one solid number because it depends on what pieces we can build in the meantime.” MACCALLUM: “So just give me a basic number for your wish list.” ROMER: “That number is outrageous.” MACCALLUM: “What’s your number for your wish list?” ROMER: “That number is ridiculous ... I’m not going to give you a solid number. That’s not what I’m here to do.” The number isn’t just coming from White House economists. Cato ran the DSA platform and found that confiscating the entire net worth of the 400 richest Americans, all $6.6 trillion of it, covers about 9% of the bill. Take every dollar of corporate profit on top of that and they’re still $29 trillion short. Romer is more than happy to explain how she’ll take money from the “billionaire class” and hand it to the working class. But ask how much it costs, or how she’ll actually pay for everything, and her entire argument collapses. CONTEXT: The DSA’s own estimate for its billionaire wealth tax is $3.9 trillion over ten years. The agenda costs $49 trillion. Even by their math, the billionaires cover 8 cents of every dollar.
