you can run "republican pedophile politician of the week." you might even be able to run it daily. democrats don't actually have that problem! if you did, fox news would be all over it.

Notice how folks managed to get mad about this when I'm not even saying "people who supported Trump" or "people who disagree with you," but rather, people who are going about their lives. Those people are doing about as much as a lot of people who are panicking in public, if we're honest. (Nothing.)

If the economy is so good, then why is it that just about everyone I know has been struggling nonstop for the past 6 years?
I'm talking food service, tech, hairdressers, building trades. They're either out of work, or they're making the same money they made in 2020 while paying 50% more for rent.

He's rage baiting you all into platforming him. And it's working because you're falling for it. Blissfully pretend he simply doesn't exist. I'm doing it right now. Wow, in this universe I am now in, there is no such guy named Will's Stencil. We've never heard of him over in this universe. It's nice!

It's reactionary as all trends are, and it's very connected to the political and economic moment we're in. Writing in the lifestyle space is always weird when big things go down but hopefully this lets you breathe before keeping going.

Remember this, by the way, the next time you see a Tesla — a company totally kept aloft by "carbon credits" but whose owner is now effectively starving immigrant families in the name of ending DEI, including "environmental justice" payments.

Please pivot your criticism towards the Democratic party that failed to run a campaign that was against genocide, with progressive policies that would have energized the base.
Instead they were jet-setting with Liz Cheney, pro crypto, and put Tim Walz in the basement.

Legally, it's very important to understand that the opponents of birthright citizenship are the ones ignoring history and tradition. On the basis of ahistorical, reactionary account of citizenship that, if you took it seriously, would result in a Fourteenth Amendment that didn't overrule Dred Scott.

It’s actually somewhat comical bc initially right-wing groups were all down for closures, thinking they would kill public schools.
But when the economy hadn’t recovered by summer 2020, the same operatives who touted homeschooling’s benefits bemoaned the irreparable harms of closures.

According to the last estimate from Imperial College of London, more than 200K American kids had lost a primary or secondary caregiver to COVID.
Our reopening policies killed people and hurt a generation of kids.
