It is VERY hard to deny that both parties are the same if the Democrats in 2025 won't force into exile a dude with Nazi tattoos and instead are defending him. I know the Overton window has shifter like a mfer but jesus mfing christ

If IT happens, I don't have to go to work the next day, right? That's the deal?

I feel like this is what Adorno was worried about.

I have been traveling and today I present to you...the thing I saw in the Frankfurt airport.

Is it efficient? Undeniably. Does it probably work better than the normal way? Oh certainly. Produce less of a mess? Probably?

But the existence of Condiment Udders gives me a deep, aghast disquiet.

A hotdog and pretzel stand with large hanging bottles of mustard, ketchup, and mayonnaise. The bottoms contain squeeze tubes to dispense the condiments.

You know who generally doesn't have Nazi tattoos, including inadvertent Nazi tattoos? Women candidates.

Charles Manson etched a swastika into his forehead. I wouldn't have voted for him for senator either.

Why is this a debate? Why is this an analysis? Why are we discussing his motivations or the reasoning behind why he has it or why he kept it? (These are all rhetorical questions.)

Nazi tattoo = you’re done.

It’s literally that simple. There’s no nuance or further conversation needed.

Bit worried that the Dems are going to win in 2028 on a Gavin Newsom/Pete Buttigieg ticket and the main policy will be "we'll knock down the ballroom and restore the White House to how it looked before".

Tucker Carlson wins in 2032.
