We’re really at the “national guard” stage of this? Really?
I’d say “don’t they remember how this ended last time” but the thing is that I bet they do and it’s exactly what they want to happen

Do I understand correctly that
1. No violence has been committed by protesters at Columbia
2. No actionable incitement to violence has been uttered at Columbia
3. No armed protesters have shown up at Columbia
4. Senators are calling for the National Guard to step in amid "concerns for safety"?

Remember how Cotton had such a hard on for China’s Tiananmen Square massacre that he wrote in the NY Times urging Trump to crush BLM protests in 2020 by sending in the troops.

The denial of the status of child is necessary to both the labor and sexual exploitation of minors in exactly the same places. Christian lobbying drives both and is why the US continues to be the only UN member not to ratify the UN Convention on the rights of the child. www.nola.com/news/politic...

You could hand Jesse Singal concrete irrefutable proof that every single trans person in all 50 states is ecstatically happy at every moment, and he would still reject it, because he doesn't want trans people to be happy. He doesn't want them to exist.

Honestly this may be the first practical and worthwhile use of a Gideon Bible 😂
I haven't smoked weed in decades, but I have some fond memories of it. A favorite happened during a hotel room photo shoot. My model and her friend wanted to smoke, but forgot papers. But they found a Gideon Bible in a bedside table, so smoked the Book of Revelations. Happy 4/20.

Mark Kern got a harassment campaign going to get a Helldivers community manager fired and the studio responded by ignoring him completely, maybe America's top newspapers and elite schools could learn something from a little Swedish studio that made a game about shooting space bugs

“Cultural Marxism” is basically just the old fascist conspiracy theory known as “Judeo-Bolshevism” with its sharpest antisemitic edges sanded off. So of course Ted Cruz is using it as a weapon in Rufo’s holy war against NPR’s CEO.
I usually try not to track in garbage over here, but Ted Cruz's Twitter over the last twelve hours has retweeted two of the most batshit things I've ever seen and I'm gonna want to talk about that

Literally got into this with a union guy who said actors could quit and find other work if they don't like it. And I'm like, "So could you, even at your paygrade and yet here you are complaining about your job you love."
lol over the last several years actual leftists have repeatedly told me (as in, on more than one occasion) that entertainment unions aren't real unions because our jobs aren't like working in factories
