If what you're saying about a group is about a group larger than say 10,000 people, it's probably both true for some of them and false for some of them, and it's probably not useful until you find a way to distinguish.
Since it's quiet now, I'll take this moment to say, the Roko's Basilisk question sounds like the kind of puzzle they'd use in the SCP Foundation entry exam, people who take it seriously get to be D-Class, people who think it's a joke get to be researchers.

During times of leadership change, the Russians play Swan Lake on the television.
For decades in advance it was understood in the UK that "Ding Dong the Witch is Dead" was the song for when Thatcher died.
Have the Americans chosen a song yet?

If you'd asked me before these e-mails came out why Trump was blocking the Epstein files, and I was drunk enough, I'd have said he's afraid of the time he spit-roasted a teenager with Bill Clinton coming out.
Apparently I have a severe lack of imagination.

There's been a lot of talk of late of touching the stove with Trump's policy.
The problem I see is, touching the stove wasn't enough in the UK.
It's going to have to be bad, and it's probably going to have to be the US, and it's going to have to be so bad the stench of burning flesh is remembered.

Fundamentally events like this are a result of how people no longer believe their votes actually affect reality.
TV entertainer and inexplicably Secretary of War/Defense/whatevs Pete Hegseth has summoned hundreds of generals from serious work all over the world to give them a short lecture on “warrior ethos”.
New details emerge on Hegseth’s unusual mass gathering of top brass
Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth has summoned hundreds of generals for what is expected to be a short lecture on the “warrior ethos.” But top brass is bracing for possible firings or demotions.

Unfortunately, this is the issue we're now faced with.
It's not even how bad Reform's policies may be. It's the people who will campaign under that banner that could seize power.
PR isn't the cure, but it will force them out into the light.

There's no way they have the framework to field enough competent MPs in that instance.
Unfortunately that makes the threat of them achieving this far worse. Parliment filled with idiots and monsters.
