Newsom 2028: A *Real* Asshole
comment in response to
post
Torment Nexus. These shitbirds look at the warnings of science fiction and go, "THAT SOUNDS AWESOME. IMMA BUILD THAT." Because they're the ones who think the curtains are just blue. They never understood SF. That's why one of the damned things is called Grok, ffs. Elon doesn't understand the concept

If it’s a real officer-involved shooting, the press has ways of shutting that down.

Congratulations, you've won a free trip to El Salvador.

You mean by repeatedly slamming it in a car door for the admiration of legions of weird nerd fanboys?

Maybe? I mean, some proportion of people are always going to love a grandiose narcissist.
Musk, e.g., was never more than a mediocre intellect, at best. And yet, *legions* of deranged fans, and VC's *throwing* money at him for unprofitable businesses.

But there is not some giant swath of the public who are waiting to switch from voting for DT to voting for AOC's agenda. A lot of T supporters are literally voting for him *because* the left hates him. Owning the libs is, literally, the whole thought process for lots and lots of T voters.

Posting links from Salon and The Nation, and then accusing *other* people of pseudointellectual circle-jerking is laughable, c'mon.
Harris spent time in swing states, talking to a conservative Republican about the horror that is DT. It does not seem to have pulled any voters away from T. Agreed.

I was acquainted with her briefly in the early- and mid-2000's in the Bay Area, through a couple of different social circles. She was transparently a grandiose narcissist and user. It was just breathtaking to watch otherwise-sensible people fall for it.

She just wants to "move on" from the devastation that she and Gaiman wrought on their victims, so that she can continue her career of parasitic exploitation of parasocial relationships.

I mean, proper subset of #2.

I do definitely think that the Democrats have to, somehow, get serious about power—attaining it, retaining it, and using it—and stop trying to sing kumbaya with eliminationist fascists.

I agree that it's extremely frustrating. But I don't see how it is, or ever was, in the power of a party participating in the process of democratic governance to put someone in prison just because we want them to. That's authoritarianism. That's the bad guys' game.

There's also the delusional notion that the Democrats have, or had, the ability to indict, try, convict, and imprison Trump.
Is that the right thing to do? Yes.
Does that make it possible? No.
Dem ineffectuality drives me nuts, too. But we live in reality.

I mean, everybody has to choose to either vote, or not vote.
If you're going to vote, there are two parties who have the potential to win. Voting for anyone else helps the "bad guys."
So there is, essentially, one option, if you're not horrifying trash.
I get that part.

I'm super-frustrated with the Dems, the f'ing gerontocracy, and the delusional obsession with "bipartisanship."
But you can't just say shit like, "people who think Liz Cheney is the future of the Democratic Party," and expect to be taken seriously. Words mean things. Those people don't exist.

Remember, growing up, most towns had that 20-something college dropout who lived in his parents garage or basement, and would have local high school kids over to get high, and then tell stories about the government covering up UFOs? Now, Rogan is that guy for everyone.

This guy?
Come on, now. And let's not get started on Schumer.
The Democratic leadership will let get shipped off to the Bakersfield MAGA Education Camp For Librul Cucks Who Don't Think Good, while they talk about reaching across the aisle.

My guess is that, at base, she believes that if X% of this money is going directly to Hamas, that's OK and A Good Thing, Actually.

Feels like there's a corollary of Poe's Law at play. My guess is that the line between, "she is breathtakingly stupid," and, "she is intentionally scamming people," is probably... not there.

Kind of annoying that, when the dumb-dumb blocks me, it seems to orphan all of my and others' responses.

If you're not just here to hear yourself talk and feel smart, reading the original post again it may clarify things for you.

That is... not different from normal ticketing. Like, in any way.

This is one of those really clear illustrations of the fact that laws serve not to prevent or deter behavior, but to give the authorities a justification to hassle who they want to hassle.

It is sad to see the lower courts writing beautiful, poetic defenses of our Constitution and rule of law and the Supreme Court writing the equivalent of Bazooka Joe wrappers supporting their destruction.

I wish I could create a company which does nothing, serves no one, and is funded by fake money which magically turns real once the company inevitably collapses.

I'm so sorry! That's anxiety-provoking, whatever the odds!
I imagine what you're seeing is actually just the difference between a doctor (knows the population statistics of this diagnostic path), and a nurse (has never seen a clinical presentation like yours that turned out to be malignant).

It doesn't. I'm sarcastically suggesting that, as long as we're accepting recurring, extralegal, public executions as a necessary aspect of public life in the US, billionaires would be a better use of our bullets than school children.
