I still find it very funny that the only people who are going to come out of this smelling like daisies are leftists and the nevertrump neocons who stuck it out

someday someone is going to write an article about how all these guys were in a secret club called “the enemies of the human race” that was based on the shared aspiration to end liberal democracy in the US.

I’m never dissing Magneto for founding the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants ever again, I guess

the name was a legal joke about pirates, which are considered “hostes humani generis”, under maritime law.

Theirs was a resentment of loneliness; their one desire was for a new faith, a new community of believers, a world with fixed standards and no doubts."

Holy shit, Stern perfectly described these people. /end

Very edifying read. “One cannot tell the extent to which [Vance] is an unprincipled opportunist, a true believer, or just a very online guy” et seq seems like an important nut to crack.
