No one will say “That’s not true, that’s false, you’re lying.” They’ll say “There are competing perspectives.” Thus they are given the power to invent reality.

Suddenly, one lone, wounded Russian soldier crawls back over the ridge, gasping for breath.
"Sir!" he wheezes to the commander. "Don't send any more men! It’s a trap!"
"What is it?" the commander demands. "A minefield? A hidden bunker?"
"No," the soldier sobs. "There are two of them!"

The US is collapsing into fascism and going to war with Europe and the opposition party is like “I’m here to talk about the important thing: how your average grocery bill has risen by two dollars over the last year, which I also have no plan or ability to fix”

it's interesting to see criticism of stancil that basically amounts to "yes, he's doing good things in the real world, but don't lose sight of the fact that he's annoying online." please take a breath.

Next up: a phased system of tax credits available to victims of ICE harassment with incomes under $75K who were brutalized in calendar year 2025 & have been enrolled in community college for a year or more but less than four years, notwithstanding other deductions.
I am introducing the Quick Recognition (QR) Act, which requires ICE and CBP officers to wear uniforms featuring QR codes. When scanned, the code would generate a digital ID displaying the officer’s name, badge number, and law enforcement agency.
ICE should be unmasked both physically and digitally.

I’m don’t like conspiracy theories.
But the longer I report on climate change and Big Oil, the clearer it becomes that what we’re dealing with an *actual conspiracy,* and we need to label it as such.
Trump’s latest actions in Venezuela make this all the more clear.

Never has a President wagged a dog harder than Trump and MAGA now.
To distract from Epstein, the explosion of health and homeowners insurance costs, and the tariffs that are decimating small businesses, Trump is plunging this country into a war and using our soldiers as pawns.
