They’re going to replace you with what they sell as super-advanced humanoid robots powered by AI. Except it will actually just be a scam to get around immigration laws, as they’ll be remotely piloted by people in Bangladesh wearing haptic suits.
Your CEO needs to be fed through a wood chipper.
Not like this. Not like this.
Little known fact: an excellent use for statues of Thatcher is to melt them down and turn them into caltrops to place in front of police marches.
Can’t believe people suck so much at history. We already had an America Party. Musk isn’t creating a political party, he’s recreating it. And the platform is the same.
Calling it now. The 2028 candidates:
American Party: Peter Thiel
Republican Party: JD Vance
Democratic Party: David Duke
Progressive Party: AOC
(The Democrats will want to go with a political centrist who can appeal to can appeal to conservatives and has a track record appealing to members of both parties. That’s why they nominate Duke.)
You can’t make this shit up. Literally refounding the Know Nothings.
The American Party, known as the Native American Party before 1855[a] and colloquially referred to as the Know Nothings, or the Know Nothing Party, was an Old Stock nativist political movement in the United States in the 1850s. Members of the movement were required to say “I know nothing” whenever they were asked about its specifics by outsiders, providing the group with its colloquial name.[
What if I make my coffee in an offbrand Keurig-style pod brewer, but instead of buying pods, I use refillable pod inserts?
It’s got to be something weird. Wait, goddamnit, am I Juche?
People can’t recognize the difference between capitalism and commerce. You don’t need to completely end private property and free enterprise in order to end capitalism. Hell, even the Soviet Union at times found keeping some small private businesses around made a lot of sense.
I don’t want a world where people can’t work for themselves, provide services directly to others, etc. Every restaurant and bar doesn’t need to be run by a central planning committee. But giant conglomerates that control the employment of tens of thousands? Maybe that’s the kind of thing the private market shouldn’t be running. We can let people operate their own modest independent businesses without also letting Walmart exist. We can let people earn enough modest profit from the fruits of their labor to make starting new businesses worthwhile, without also allowing people to hoard such vast fortunes that they become geopolitically dangerous. We can have commerce without capitalism. I want a world where people can work for themselves without having to work for someone else or for the government. That doesn’t mean I want a world where you can become a billionaire by playing labor arbitrage with the hard work of thousands of other human beings. We can let people own their own homes without also allowing industrial-scale landlording.
Commerce and capitalism are not the same thing. We can have commerce without capitalism. Commerce existed long, long before capitalism, and it will exist long after capitalism has been relegated to the history books.
I want to encourage more people to refer to this as what it is - the Hitlerian definition of anti-Semitism.
Modern Hitlerian anti-Semites view being Jewish and being a Zionist as one and the same. A Jewish person can be born in the US, have complete loyalty to the US, and have absolutely zero interest in or loyalty to Israel. But according to the Hitlerian definition of anti-Semitism, Jewish people have innate loyalty to Israel from birth. They are inseparable. To be Jewish is to be Israeli. A Jewish person cannot really be a full citizen of the United States, Canada, Germany, or any other nation except Israel. They will always be the suspect foreign other.
I use the word “Hitlerian” because that’s exactly what this logic is. The Nazis held that Jews could never truly be full citizens of Germany. Countless Jewish WW1 veterans, people who considered themselves fully German had zero loyalty to any other nation, were sent to camps on the theory that they could never truly be German. They would always be foreigners. They would always be the other. This was also the logic of the Japanese internment camps. Every Japanese person was suspect, simply due to their ethnic heritage. They could be the most stars-and-stripes wearing gung-ho America fan imaginable, it didn’t matter. Their preferences, beliefs, hopes, and dreams, none of it mattered. All that mattered was their ethnicity.
Glastonbury is using the Hitlerian definition of anti-Semitism. They follow the Hitlerian belief that all Jews are intrinsically foreigners and owe innate loyalty to the state of Israel. And we can’t be afraid to call this logic Hitlerian, as that’s what it truly is.
I found the most effective way to deal with microplastics in my balls was simply to have them removed entirely.
Don’t worry, in a few years, SCOTUS will rule that trans women are fully legally women. This ruling will come 3 days after that *Handmaid’s Tale" Gilead law passes that prohibits women from having bank accounts. Trans women will be fully recognized as women…and immediately fall under the full control of their fathers or husbands.
First read this as Ezra Klein and was very confused.
OMG. This is perfect. This is ART!
Ok, you’ve convinced me. But I have one condition before I sign on to this proposed reign of terror.
We need at least one crazy guy in a bathtub writing out screeds demanding various enemies of the Revolution be sent to the guillotine.
Mark of the Beast.
Not necessarily. All we really know is that Iran may just be willing to flatter him more.
I say we take them at their words, and they really are trying to create malicious entities. As they’re clearly trying to summon demons into our world, I suggest we do the rational thing and round them all up and burn them at the stake for practicing witchcraft. You want to do devil shit? Fine, we’ll burn you like the witches you are.
No, that’s the fist in the furious. It’s a much more…adult version of the film. Why do you think he’s wearing gloves and goggles? Also, while the dog won’t be participating, he will be watching.
