“Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.” ― Jean-Paul Sartre

If the adage is right that Americans are three missed meals away from a riot, then you can take a guess.

Freud or Lacan

The Israeli’s will probably violate the ceasefire almost immediately like they did with Lebanon. Don’t believe it for a second.

Unintended consequences lmao.

It’s also such a bold move towards cutting down on first amendment on national security justifications; the material conditions are there, it is what’s radicalizing little timmy into either a commie or a fascist. It’s not tik tok, per se, as tik tok is merely a platform for expressing of discontent. Ruling class thinks they can force everyone into shitstagram and threads (ugh). And initially they will, but things are gonna get uglier and what will they do?

I personally think this is, to some extent, a good thing, because social media and slacktivism are a fucking plague on progressive causes. Actual praxis needs to occur out in the real world.

he had nothing on the national security argument, for a variety of reasons, except the foreign registration act; which i think goes to show how America has handled (poorly, some would say) foreign influence. The fun fact about half the national security arguments being redacted is cringeworthy. And the data argument goes for just about every goddamn company that runs a website with ads, let alone a social platform.

the tiktok lawyer sucked in my opinion.

The ruling class doesn’t want to childproof itself. They just used the democrats as a release valve for the Race insurrection and riots of 2020

enshification at work

Bruh what

The baddie did nothing wrong

Can’t even engage in free speech anymore

He fucked up having the gun and a confession on him (could be a plant). All the prosecution has to do is create a timeline of evidence from the six months he disappeared up until Wednesday of last week. He can also be charged for creating or having fake documents, and a host of other things.

Will it matter? He is probably going to live large with a fat commissary, if they don’t put him in solitary for the rest of his life.

There are plenty of funny outcomes like him making statements in court. Submitting denial claims by UHC into the record, and god knows what else.

BOY HE COOKED

Give it another year or so if they haven’t blown us all up by then.

yeah, i made it more obvious with the quotes. It’s a reference to this:

I’m friends with the only good boomer and he is a new deal democrat. It rocks.
