It’s almost poetic how the party of 'pull yourself up by your bootstraps' worships two people who were born on third base and think they hit a triple.

What are the chances this administration gets us Nuked? Donald is a petty, miserable old man likely on his way out. He does not care about what’s left behind.

Instead of preparing for the profound implications of a post-AGI/ASI world, the U.S. remains entangled in divisive culture wars, distracting us from the future that demands our collective focus and unity.

It's extra annoying that the country is being run by several guys who couldn't make it through an interview for a regular job because they're too weird and don't know how to do anything

Discussing the toxicity of their city

A friend of mine asked how we bring down an oligarchy. It turns out Ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle wrote on this very topic after studying the governance of 150 city-states. We need need strategic patience and alternative networks. I recommend this video: youtu.be/UlbJtgYEM1U?...

They keep trying to sanewash his sieg heil-using stills of other politicians to make their point. This video shows one of these things is not like the other. Per usual, THEY know. They're just being disingenuous. How does this end for America?

How many soldiers gave their lives fighting Nazis, only for their sons and grandsons to think being a Nazi is ‘edgy’ and ‘cool’? The disrespect is staggering.

Fought a war to defeat the Nazis, and now, on inauguration day, they’re openly doing this—with the support of the very grandsons and families of those soldiers who fought against them. What a disgrace.

Biden & co. rolling out the red carpet for a fascist. Americans created this mess—ask yourself why. If you’re a citizen and wondering how this happens, start by questioning why Americans tolerate racism among their friends and family. Racism isn’t a phase or a quirk. It’s a choice

What’s the difference between a gov controlling an algorithm, silently eliminating reach for things it doesn’t like, vs the same gov using its power, to demand that the platform remove the things it doesn’t like.? In China they are overt. With TikTok in the US, they control silently

We’re stuck in a post-irony culture where being sincere is treated like a crime. People are so afraid of looking cringe that genuine gestures like this get mocked. It’s exhausting.

My one wish for the inauguration is that there is a gift bag under the seats of Bezos, Zuck, Elon etc, with a single, embroidered , padded knee pad Need to protect themselves when they are on bended knee, kissing the ring 🤷😆

Correcting them and pointing out heir hypocrisy does nothing. MAGA doesn’t feel shame. They’ve built entire ideologies on avoiding accountability. Facts don’t matter to those who thrive on outrage and projection, it’s their currency, not their downfall.

We know. From deficits and executive orders to “backing the blue,” their stances did a total 180 the moment it suited them. Hypocrisy at its finest

This is really what it feels like. I still use the app way too much even though it greets me with fresh awfulness daily. Muting and blocking are half-measures at best. At least scrolling here isn’t a daily assault on my sanity

rewatching sons of anarchy. Thinking you’re in a hardcore biker gang only to find out your dad wanted to start a co-op is a twist no one sees coming. Jax trying to reconcile club life with the communist manifesto

How did we end up with a generation of hyper-specialists who think their niche expertise means they can outsmart epidemiologists, climate scientists, and historians? The Dunning-Kruger effect graduated from a personality trait to a worldview.

‘I don’t trust scientists or institutions,’ they post…on a device powered by decades of science, connected to a network designed by institutions, while eating food regulated so it doesn’t kill them.

The one thing they got right about the future growing up wasn’t flying cars—it was life becoming a reality show. Every culture, subculture, and bad haircut has a camera pointed at it. EDtv meets The Truman Show, except we applied to be here. The future isn’t dystopian—it’s just content
