Wonder if people karma farm there...

“Rational Wiki presents an understanding of reality that I mostly agree with and is thus boring. I want some spicy takes so I’m going to go suck on the firehose of reactionary diarrhoea, but it’s ok because my throat game is too good to let any of it through” type shit

All time banger

I'm reasonably certain worse emails exist but they're with sympathetic individuals.

The slight of hand is that he considers all Jewish hostages to be his last child, and all Palestinian bystanders to be the children of his enemy. Humanism is seeing them all as your children. Scott seems to have discovered what we might call "race-ism."

The amazing part about his deranged homicidal metaphor is that it would work exactly the same way if you were using it to argue in favor of Hamas. I knew this guy had issues, I even felt bad for him, but the brainworms have clearly won. Hate is intoxicating and one should not indulge in it to this degree lest one lose one's humanity.

Yeah I used to think he was a brilliant manipulator but I actually listened to some of his words and yeah he's just bonkers and has enough money that it doesn't matter that he's bonkers.

Even just transcribing these and hosting them is extremely helpful, thanks.

Only things that a hidden camera can do.

Man I thought this was gonna be about the very real dilemma about what is to be done with ICE and other political vanguards if libs ever get power again while trying to come out the other side with some semblance of rule of law and respect for institutions. And the plain fact is that by weaponizing the government to the degree they have, the Trump administration has made it very difficult to ever return to a place where it's not weaponized.

But her long winded defense of the doge boys undermines her point. They're not 'smart young boys', they're worms who's vile crime will stain us for generations.

This is a massive loss. At this point we need specific legislation. Insane to grant fair use to a for-profit copier that provides no benefit to the owner of the copied item and competes with it in the market. I cannot overstate how shitty this is.

He doesn't believe in Germ theory. He's utterly deranged. The grift is alternative medicine, but I don't know if he really understands that it's a grift. His bosses surely do, but they just want to inflict as much punishment on institutions as possible.
