In a way Trump and Mamdani are similar. They are both populists fighting against the elite, it's just who they see as "the elite" differs.

Mamdani sees the elite as the billionaires who control the economic, political, and social systems of society.

Trump sees the elite as people who read books.

My most conservative opinion? That we should go back to the old name for the common kestrel.

In an ideal society the leaders would be the wisest and most virtuous of people.

In a less than ideal society they would be chosen more or less at random, as by chance.

In our actual society, they are... well I'm not sure exactly how to describe it, but let's just say we are "totally fucked".

If I were Lord Emperor of America I would simply design an economic system where housing price do NOT rise faster than salaries always and forever.

Sorry, but if the Republican party is going to start on the whole "making fine distinctions between pedofiles and ephebophiles" then they have to ALSO go back to the Gold Standard.

No one knows why, but those are the rules.
Megyn Kelly: "I know somebody very close to this case…Jeffrey Epstein, in this person's view, was not a pedophile…He was into the barely legal type, like he liked 15 year old girls…He wasn't into like 8 year olds…There's a difference between a 15 year old and a 5 year old."

It's kind of funny how close q-anon was to uncovering a secret pedo ring amongst the world's elite. They really just missed. They only made one minor mistake which was their iron clad rule of "the more racist you are the less you are a pedo" didn't hold water in the end.

Meanwhile, on twitter, did you know that Mary Shelley never could have written Frankenstein (which is about magnets as you know) because her boyfriend was really into magnets?

In fact, when you think about it, that's why women in general don't write great literature (chicks aren't into magnets).

The irony of conspiracy theorists is, of course, that they are the most easily manipulated people on the planet. For, having no standards of evidence whatsoever, they can be led by the nose to believe anything – so long as it isn't true.

Mankind no longer fears the spirits that dwell in the deepest forests. We have lost our respect for those who came before us, who watch us still with eyes not of this realm. We have forgotten what our ancestors knew by instinct: the world is to be feared, not understood.

all because of woke...

All the Republicans saying stuff like "I GUESS NYC FINALLY FORGOT 9/11!!" is so funny. Apparently "never forget" was always just supposed to mean "we will be extra racists to middle easterners forever."

Maybe I'm naive but I thought it had something to do with remembering the victims? Guess not.

good morning specifically to the FBI agent who introduced Mamdani’s dad to Marx

Mamdanigrad (formerly New York City), will stand as a shining example to the world of what is possible when the workers unite, and crush the bourgeois class with an iron fist (mild increase in minimum wage, free buses, etc).

Guy who has $300 million dollars, but will only have $330 million at the end of Mamdani's term (he might have had $340 million if Cuomo was elected): "This is the biggest disaster in history. This is communism. Stalinism even. I have no choice but to become a fascist."

Daylight savings time reveals just how much we rely on the government to tell us when to go to bed and wake up.

Human beings as a species, on some fundamental level, simply cannot handle the responsibility of deciding our own bedtimes.

Controversial opinion but we really need to give Los Angeles back to Mexico and/or the Pacific Ocean.

Conspiracy brained people cause so many problems in society. We need to come up some kind of vaccine for it.

Obviously it'd be nigh impossible to get them to take, so we'd have to do one insane conspiracy for real. Like put in avocados so guacamole makes them sane. After that we'd be good though.

What exactly is it that babies find so funny about "peekaboo"? It's hardly even a joke. No subtly, no satire, no political commentary. It's nothing.

Stupid babies.

God did such a shit job at creating the universe. I would have made the gravitational constant way lower, and the speed of light like...at least twice as fast.

What was He thinking?

If I were communist dictator of USA, I would put anyone who puts up Christmas decorations before Halloween straight to gulag. They can die in jail for all I care, I'm not joking. There are two holidays in between, both with decorations.

Once again I would like to reiterate that this is NOT a joke.

Just lost my election as the Mayor of Dale. My opponent said my 2% wealth tax on Smaug the Terrible was communism, and spread a rumor that I wanted to spend some of the money on healthcare for Dwarves.

Anyway, now they shutting down the program that gives bread to the poor to pay for new ballroom.

Wait what? There is ANOTHER baseball game today?? But I've already watched baseball. Surely I finished my baseball yesterday.

They can't just keep coming up with more baseball. This can't be right...
