The child in me kind of wishes he had passed on 4/20 Easter, but alas.
That being said, while I’m not religious I appreciate a lot (not all) of what this Pope has done. His Apostolic Exhortation on the Idolatry of Money, and the gross inequality wrought by capitalism is worth a read.
I think about just how many shitty fathers these kids have, most of them in the maga cult that are lapping up the likes of Carlson and Peterson’s lessons on red pilled bullshit and condoning the behavior of their kids (albeit from a notably absent distance).
Some people just prefer nights in white satin, I tell ya.
Decades of propaganda at work and a political inertia exploiting the well-meaning attempt at thwarting antisemitism (and the risk of being perceived as Antisemitic), combined with massive anti-Muslin sentiment.
Some people are saying he’s the secret child of the master of flip flopping, whose moral beliefs are as solid as water, and the biggest sniveling weasel in all of D.C., Lindsey Graham.
Side note, but this image of Putin as a gay clown is banned in Russia, with possible prison time.
It just seems too obvious to me that this is the intentional sabotage by the Trump administration on behalf of at least Russia. None of this makes sense whatsoever. Not even if you’re a stock market businessman who doesn’t care about allies.
It literally only makes sense in the purview of relative strength gain of Russia; maybe China too.
Hell yeah, thanks dude. Will be watching this over the next couple days.
Bummer, I can’t watch that from here in the US. I’ve been slacking on getting a VPN…
Been wanting to watch the later seasons of The Rise of Nazis, too.
That’s related to Survok Theater, right? Between Dugin and him, the Russian propaganda tactics being used read like an open book. We see the game being played but what are some possible solutions? Must we hope people learn their lesson in the collapse to come?
47% are extremely susceptible to disinformation echo chambers.
The rich have eroded academic institutions and flooded the airwaves, muddying the waters of reality that only those with time and strong critical-thinking skills can parse.
Put another way: if I was a psychopathic piece of shit I’d know that a dumb electorate is easier to grift and control. So I’d make sure they stay confused, ignorant, and apathetic.
This guy has been touring America promoting Christian Nationalism since Trump pardoned him at the end of his first term. Watch the PBS Frontline doc, “Michael Flynn’s Holy War”
He’s a complete piece of shit and traitor.
Putin’s bidding to fracture the deepest alliances of the West under utterly bullshit pretenses.
The number one priority from here until next midterms should be forcing Democrats like this or the 10 who censured Al Green. Primary them all with progressive populists.
I’m sure we’re still in a constitutional crisis but I’ll take that over blind capitulation. The wider this chasm expands, the better.
Keep driving that wedge.
Just imagine if Trump was in the White House in 2022. Biden’s intelligence warned Zelenskyy of the amassing troops and the impending invasion which may have bought his country time to redeploy forces and static defenses enough to thwart the entire attack. In fact it’s quite possible the Russian plan to seize Hostomel Airport was passed on to Ukraine as well.
Good. The rest of our traditional allies must remain united and in lockstep with Ukraine.
Trump under the direction of Putin is clearly attempting to fracture the Western alliances in order to gain relative strength. It seems most of these countries recognize the game being played and aren’t taking the bait thankfully.
I’ll feel much better if Canadian elections go well.
Trump is looking for his new Epstein. Remember, he partied with both Epstein and Maxwell, flying over half a dozen times on Epstein’s private plane, “The Lolita Express.”
Like with anything the GOP accuses Dems of, the sex trafficking ring was projection.
I know the results of Germany are something of a mixed bag but at least they managed to hold the line. It will give me a good bit of hope if we see Canada at least manage the same. We’ll need all the stability we can get for these next years…
11% of Trump supporters who voted for him in the last election disapprove of him, according to this PEW poll. Honestly more than I thought but who knows how easily Republicans could get them back given their megaphone of misinformation diales up during election time.
