Oh look: world’s largest monopoly taking a “brave” stand against so-called colonialism. Greater bullshit than which no greater can be conceived. Faux-“activism”, faux-“history”, and general ingratitude and ugliness. This is who they—the ruling class, not Native *Americans*—are.
Let’s uncelebrate a famed moment that led to years of peace between natives and puritans...you know, for justice...and fake virtue signaling...GTFO here.
The op here is annual now. Thanksgiving (a moment of racial harmony) is a threat to the new state religion, which wants to undermine it.

This year it's all these ideological ops plus just telling people not celebrate for fear of their lives. How DARE Trump tell people to gather with their families and celebrate it!

This is what CNN is condemning: "I encourage all Americans to gather, in homes and places of worship, to offer a prayer of thanks to God for our many blessings."

I have a PhD. I can’t believe how seriously people still take ‘em. It’s a credential from a failing system in its death throes—it’s cringeworthy when people don’t realize that. I never mention it & left the academy in disgust. Could never be a slave like profs generally are now.
Slightly embarrassed about my Twitter handle but was shortest combo available that I could think of at the time. Too lazy to think of another/change. Suggest away though.
All it means is often this: you took a lot of classes, passed 1 or 2 overarching tests on those classes, & wrote a lot of papers but one big one that could be a book if you rewrote it so people gave a crap & took out all the references to other scholars they made you put into it.

Over seven centuries ago, Thomas Aquinas summed up what western civilization understood to be the natural debt of gratitude all human beings owe to God, family, and country:
“Man becomes a debtor to other men in various ways, according to their various excellence and the various benefits received from them . . . the principles of our being and government are our parents and our country, that have given us birth and nourishment."
"Consequently man is debtor chiefly to his parents and his country, after God. Wherefore just as it belongs to religion to give worship to God, so does it belong to piety, in the second place, to give worship to one’s parents and one’s country.”

There’s almost no connection between most large donors and foundations on the right and actual power, significant political action, or results. Now is a good example. There’s a fight on re the presidency and the senate. It’s the organic MAGA movement that has all the energy.
But there is no infrastructure of non-profits, foundations, activists, media groups, etc. common to the left but needed on the Right. But much is now possible—IF you understand the landscape and how it’s changed and how we should change accordingly.
This is a transitional time in which money used rightly could wield great influence and move the dial. Some get this. Most don’t.

No one should be getting angry at @TuckerCarlson or friends like @davereaboi at aiming at truth in regard to the election. The goal should simply be to ask and answer valid questions. The media is full of garbage, yes, but bold claims require solid evidence.
The truth, it seems to me, is that they made the illegal legal, or created a gray area to harvest and avoid disqualifying mail-ins.
Stuff like this happened and in many cases was technically legal and some not. Shady either way. Should be fought. But likelihood of proving it is slim to none, sadly.

This is the unassailable anomalous tell for anyone knowledgeable on the topic. The expert knock on mail-ins up until Nov 3rd was that they lead to lots of disqualified ballots. But Democrats fought to allow & harvest them en masse & then count them all at world historical rates.
This isn't complicated. It's a bloody obvious question to ask: all of a sudden these states allowed exponentially more harvested mail-ins than in past years and the ballots were all counted at a-historical rates in a way that obviously favored Biden.
Read @josh_hammer at @theammind and ask yourself: has anyone adequately answered these valid questions? Is any Democrat or anyone now calling themselves a moderate even trying to answer them?

It was totally legit for mainstream to accuse & investigate the President for 4yrs for stealing 2016 election by supposedly manipulating tech & being a Russian agent but constitutionally investigating the bizarre way the 2020 election played out is a dangerous conspiracy theory.
Anyone who cares about democracy will seek to allow a process to play out that proves that this one - in which the rules were changed last minute before it unfolded in whip-lash inducing manner - was legit for the sake of half the nation that is now plausibly concerned.
Showers of fact checks wildly claiming there's NO FRAUD EVER & all voting software/hardware that even libs were worried before last month are TOTALLY FINE doesn't cut it.
