the seemingly inexorable march of antisemitism into the very heart of US politics from both the left and right is pretty depressing

Tillis to Noem: "A 14 month old dog is basically a teenager in dog years. You decided to kill that dog bc you hadn't invested the appropriate training, then you have the audacity to write a book & say it's a leadership lesson! ... Those are bad decisions not unlike what happened in Minneapolis"

It do be like that Mr. Stancil.

True, great power ideology is terrible but it also thrives on division and resentment.

That's good point but it's not that it died but it never lived. Both Nietzsche and Spinoza described good and evil as always dependent on the subjects own wants. Instead during power strivings there is composition and decomposition, and to compose society we must resist sad passions.

Also wont his successor and others in the region have to think twice before trying to build nuclear weapons or export instability and war?

Really international law didn't die when Putin faked drills and launched a full scale invasion of Ukraine with 0 negotiation?

People in Iran celebrate the alleged death of Khamenei, with fireworks launched in Tehran. After news of his alleged death, residents shout from windows in joy. #Iran

❗️The fire at the 🇷🇺Kaleikino oil depot in Almetyevsk, Russia, is still raging.

I hope it can be fixed up, but either way I am sorry this happened but grateful you're ok and it was just parked. Either way be safe out there maybe get new license plate in case ICE or one of the extremist arsonist losers sees this plate.

if you're calling Gavin Newsom 99% Hitler I think it's fair to say you don't know what Hitler is

Says writer in bio, lol you can write and work a 9-5 but you choose to write your fun slop instead of sacrificing with a serious job.

lol why does it say thread removed it's still there silly blue sky

nah lol

No one says you using social media proves this rather that you're all terminally online and wasting time that is valuable to everyone else.

I can say with 100% certainty everyone in this thread would be a hilariously stupid guest on Caleb Hammer. You all eat out, doordash, buy sticker price cars you don't need, drink martinis, and get bullshit.

This is insane. It’s not some kind of character test for you. The point is that most people, poor and otherwise, aren’t tracking their personal finances precisely - this is well-known, extremely established fact - and as a result are unable to reliably notice very small aggregate changes in price.

This. Precisely this. Serious people don’t threaten to vote third party, because it’s a tantrum.

I don’t like Newsom at all, I think he’s an amoral opportunist. But JD Vance is quite literally a man who gets his ideas from neo-Nazis. He’s a white supremacist fascist. It’s an easy, easy choice!

I’m not saying you shouldn’t criticize Dems - of course not - but acting like “a mediocre Dem versus an actual fascist” is a tough choice is extremely unhelpful for people trying to build a broad united front against fascism.

The reason people are concerned about lefties saying “I won’t vote for a moderate Dem” isn’t because they want Newsom. It’s because lefties keep not voting for moderate Dems!

I think all the scolding about it being years til the primary would hit a little harder if WE DIDN’T JUST GO THROUGH THIS

The left attacks create a permission structure for non-voters. “Eh, they’re all the same anyway.” Same thing happened in 2000. It contributes to the miasmatic discontent with candidates that drives low-info voters to make terrible choices.

Man every day I wonder if I shouldn’t just delete my account on here maybe. Opening Bluesky makes me want to actually walk in front of a truck. I don’t think people on here understand how crazy they’ve gotten

Glad this is getting covered, but also… Completely surreal to read the NYT report on this as recently disclosed info, and just an allegation. This happened to every observer I know! It happened to me twice! I have it on video both times! www.nytimes.com/2026/02/13/u...

When you really read into the files it seems Epstein only cared about himself. He exchanged more emails with multiple Russian government officials including Sergey Belyakov and elite Oleg Deripaska then any Jew or Israeli. Belarussian
Karyna Shuliak(putin loyalist) became heir to Epstein's estate.

Like we’re just straight-up becoming QAnon, and for the same reason: too many mainstream progressives are deeply uncomfortable treating their fringe as persona non grata

The number of people on the left who will not only argue that Epstein was obviously an Israeli agent, but who will treat you as somehow part of the conspiracy if you criticize that view, is, uh, not great

If you suspect random prominent Jewish people of being agents for Israel, that is literally antisemitism. How is this not obvious

Once again we have to use reductive and buzzword infused language to make our point instead of historic accuracy. Slavery was not started as a for profit system but out of disdain for those beaten in war by ancient Egypt. It was never ok regardless of the reason so yes Gulag was also slavery.

Because slavery predates capitalism if you're really being honest. This horrible practice was taken advantage of by the Atlantic slave trade but had been happening since ancient Egypt. Your ridiculous marxist theories of history need to overcode capitalism on resentment culture which is Marxism.
