*sets the softball ever so gently on the tee*
It’s a hell of a question for someone to ask whose entire role in society is dressing up conspiracy theories to look like semiliterate history texts, all to enable the confirmation biases of people who are going to believe the theories no matter what.
I don’t think you can become less essential to society than Dinesh D’Souza without dancing in a box at the end of a Werner Herzog movie.
If you got that last tweet, yes we can be friends forever.

Donald Trump is an open white supremacist. If anyone treats calling him racist as even mildly controversial I cannot take them seriously.
I mean, for example: everything.
When Anderson Cooper plays the skepticism game in reaction to AOC’s straightforward acknowledgement of a clearly observable truth, he isn’t taking an unbiased position.

In fact he’s taking the position that Trump’s whole charade depends on.

If the richest among us find marginal taxes of 70% radical, wait until they hear what the alternatives are.
It’s an indication of how successful the radical oligarchist movement has been at reframing the public discourse, that something as common-sense as a 70% marginal rate for the highest brackets is considered a radical outlier.
Radical oligarchists have so taken over public discourse that people whose entire ethos and mission is consolidating over half the world's wealth in the hands of a few thousand call themselves "conservative" and nobody says anything.

SPIDER MAN: INTO THE SPIDERVERSE is, in my opinion, very good. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2

(also, omg this shot)
I’m not one to gasp but I gasped.
Like I get chills thinking of not just the shot but the visual imagination that thought of that shot, it’s the definition of Spider Man and I’d never have imagined it.

Y'all, it's time to learn some things about the medicalisation of transgender identity, the sacrifice of power over our identities to cis folk who don't have our best interests at heart , and the focus on dysphoria, and why it does more harm than good. Buckle up (1/?)
Let's look into our history. The psychiatric diagnosis of gender identity disorder (please note the word *disorder* here) was created in 1980 before being rebranded as gender dysphoria. (2/?)
At the time and since, Arlene Istar Lev, a clinician with 30 years of experience, noted that the definition was an “attempt to re-stigmatise homosexuality and related identities” (homosexuality only having been removed as a psychiatric diagnosis 6 years earlier). (3/?)

#History/#Art thread – From my recent trip to Madurai/Tirunelveli. On Jain sites (some with a rich history dating back to at least the 3rd cent. BCE), early Pandyan rock-cut cave temples (7th-8th cent. CE) & the amazing Vettuvan koil.

Pic: Mahavira (~8 cent CE), Kizhakuyilkudi
Before I start on the places, the history around all this is fascinating & splits opinion. Is it apt to call the script Tamili/Tamil Brahmi? Did it develop independently in the Tamil country/come with the Jain monks from the north? Were 8,000 Jains actually impaled in Madurai?>
>Were the Saivites overaggressive in promoting their faith? Shall only be happy to discuss on these separately (unless it gets too long/irrational). And I’m not posting every inscription from the places here, despite their importance. Again, shall be happy to discuss them.

I don't know why people feel the need to make up conspiracy theories about Cloudflare. There's so many true things about the company that suck already.

It's *incredibly* sexist (special thanks to their leadership) and they hire people like Joe Sullivan theoutline.com/post/2551/uber…
While I was there, I had a friend (who is a woman) who was thinking about joining, but stopped when she found out there were zero other woman in engineering at the company (out of like 80).

@Zatlyn told me to lie to her and say that there were women

I refused to tell that lie
While I was there I emailed the co-founders several times to ask about the lack of women and to ask if the company could do more about it

@eastdakota told me the problem did not exist, that there were plenty of women in sales and finance, and tried to hush me about it

Learn something today about your government!

Article explains the difference of Democracy v. Republic but the picture is more succinct.

madisonproject.com/2013/09/we-the…

Hint: We are a Constitutional Republic much to the Democrats’ chagrin. #History #America #USA
Often Democrats mislabel our governance and that’s not by accident. As you can see, Democracy in its purest form is not what most would want. Our constructional republic is a much better way to govern bc ppl have the power not government. The inalienable rights are irrevocable!
With all this talk these days about the First & Second Amendment, Democrats want you to forget those inalienable rights are irrevocable so they can impose requirements making it impossible to enjoy . This is a detriment to society. Ex. Chicago 2A & Social Media censorship 1A!

UNFAITHFUL SHEPHERDS

"Many years ago, the then president of The National Council of Churches warned that the danger of the great religious awakening taking place in our country, might become fanatical and be carried into our political and business life!
"Perhaps this was a fair assessment, that is, if you conflate #Christian #Zionism with religious awakening. Unfortunately, these "fanatical" #Evangelicals have 0 faith in the #Christian religion to which they give empty lip service--while paying homage to those who hate #Christ.
"For lack of faith in the actual #Bible, #Evangelicals make Scofield’ Notes, (Scofield! A drunkard and a con-man allied with the Satanist, Darby) --#Evangelicals have turned Scofield’s NOTES into a DIABOLICAL FORCE in our #national life.
