Amazon review of Industrial Society and its future, written by the alleged United Healthcare CEO shooter Image
His account on here is @PepMangione Image

My general read on everything I've seen of him so far, to include follows etc, is a Rogan listener with +20 IQ points to the median.

Not particularly interested in political discourse but very interested in political philosophy. Microdosing gym bro with bland bipartisan follows. Image
Not quite a redditor, not quite a chud. But unless he's got a burner somewhere, he doesn't seem to really be into "the discourse" or any kind of mirth nor vulgarity.
If this is all organic I would bet this xray of a pinning on his spine in his banner pic probably has something to do with any kind of grudge he may have against the healthcare industry. Image

So far my working theory is a guy with chronic pain from the pinning of an injury in his back combined with getting one shot by ayahuasca.

His Valedictorian video..

It seems very out of step from how this usually goes. Generally we all scramble to get this information because it goes down within an hour of the name of a suspect getting out.

If this is all still up in 24h.. be wary



Yeah this is starting to look like an ARG. Something stinks.

The thing Elon doesn't understand is that the value of DOGE isn't saving money.

The value of DOGE is in bypassing normal bureaucratic back and forth to dismantle enemy institutions and human capital that act as sinecures for the left that finance their apparatus with tax $$$. 🧵 Image
The "Fork in the Road" early retirement isn't a useful means of reducing manpower or saving money.

It was useful for ejecting federal employees who had so much TDS they couldn't stomach working for this administration or were lazy and ran away from being held to high standards.
@elonmusk is crashing out about the debt ceiling and spending, but this runaway ponzi scheme was basically written into the firmware of our economy when Bretton Woods happened.

And to redesign our economy and govt into something healthy, we need roadblocks gone.

USCIS just gutted the Special Immigrant Juvenile program, which one lawyer I spoke to referred to as the "MS-13 Visa Program". I talked to a few lawyers on both the Govt and Private side of the issue and I'll explain what this is and what this means: 🧵 Image
The SIJ program is designed to cover cases of child abandonment, such as a child under 21 being abandoned by one parent in their home country, while the other resides in the United States. In reality, it's a gigantic fraud scheme. USCIS explains their reasoning: Image
Being classified as an SIJ was rendering these youths subject to "Deferred Adjudication" where while waiting years for a verdict on their status, they were conferred a sort of deferred legal residence/work authorization.

What this is actually about is revenge, it's revenge season.

Trump is buck breaking big pharma over the entire industry collectively not telling the truth about COVID, botching the response on purpose out of greed, as well as turning what he wanted to be a cornerstone of his career, the COVID vax, into one of the biggest question marks that gets aimed at him from his own base.

You can count on the fact that several appendages of big pharma *knew* it was a lab leak, *knew* it wasn't all that lethal to most of the citizenry, and *knew* that it wasn't a good idea to deploy an untested technology like mRNA vaccines to hundreds of millions+ of people.

The one thing you do *not* want to do to a guy like Trump is embarass him. Obama did that at the correspondents dinner, and look how that went for him and his legacy.

I think that's the reason behind a lot of the actions regarding Israel of the last few days as well. Israel snubbed Trump within 72 hours of the 2020 election despite all the support he extended them during his first term.

In response there's been rebuke after rebuke of Israel, motivated by past insults and fresh ones, like AIPAC bragging about their access to Tim Waltz, and the likelihood that SignalGate was orchestrated by them to discredit Hegseth.

All of these things inconvenienced and embarrassed Trump, and the only thing worse than that which you can do to him is not reciprocate gestures of loyalty or friendship which he has shown. "Project Warp Speed" will always be a controversy, the economy was rocked onto its heels by the COVID response that wasn't actually necessary, lives ruined, childhoods crushed, and the idea that people knew and not a single one was able to tell him the truth of the matter burns a guy like Donald to his core.

Trump tolerates some incompetence and even some collateral damage/embarrassment from his fellows (see Guiliani) if they are loyal. This is one of his traits that I don't particularly admire, but it's true.

But what I do admire is his capacity for revenge against those who engage in pettiness, betrayal, or disloyalty.
Let me clarify a bit about the vax.

Big Pharma lied about the efficacy trials and sued to hide the data to get the vaccine released, albeit after slow walking it to keep it from being released before the election.

Trump will never stop talking up project warp speed as being "stupendous" because Trump has gone on record saying *many* times not to admit mistakes, and even when you're losing to act like you are winning. He's never going to turn around and apologize, or admit something didn't work out as planned, or take fault/blame/responsibility for something bad. It just is what it is, it is his psychology.

But you can guarantee the fact that things didn't go the way he wanted *irks* the man incessantly. The same way what Israel did irks him. This is not a man who you want to dump a mess in the lap of (even if he makes tons of messes on his own that he tends not to clean up)
Donald Trump, for better or worse, is a man who *never* admits that he is wrong. If he has to, he fakes it till he makes it and will swear the sky is purple if need be.

Which seems to be a common trait in famous businessmen (see Elon etc)

So when you make something he is attached to go tits up, it pisses a guy like that off, because now he has to avoid admitting that something went tits up.

The only facts about the new Pope I've been able to glean thus far as a non catholic:

-He's American
-His timeline reads like leftist coal
-He's made statements disapproving of gays, gay marriage, and women in the clergy
-He's from Chicago (ick)
-He's publicly countersignaled JD Vance on ordo amoris and immigration but also vehemently stated the catholic church shouldn't be endorsing open borders and mass migration, but taking in refugees as they are able to
Some snippets of his: Image

My overall assessment from looking at a ton of other takes is that this guy appears to be a milquetoast moderate who leans left on immigration but leans right on some social issues like gays and abortions.

Feeling I'm getting is he will be a much less vocal pope than Francis overall

I think we're in the middle of the greatest epistemic re-sorting/unraveling of our lives right now. Shiloh Hendrix, Karmelo Anthony, Tariffs, the Civil Rights Act, White Guilt, TFR, WW2, it all ties together.

The death of boomer neuromythology: 🧵
There's been a lot of collected momentum over the last decade of people in the west realizing that things are *really* not ok, that the world doesn't work as it should. One of the most perturbing are many sets of punitive, unfair, illogical double standards.
Which is what the Shiloh Hendrix incident is really about, a refutation of one of those double standards. Don't focus too much on the event itself, the point is not to justify a mom calling some black kid the gamer word, it's not about what type of person she is or is not either. Image

"You missed the point of the movie" says the media literacy crowd

>fireman dad murdered by black guy while putting out a fire
>blacks try to break into his truck, shoots one and curb stomps the other, goes to jail
>makes a black friend and decides to reform and become antiracist
>gets out and his little brother is on the same path, tries to persuade him to stop hating black people
>little brother defends a smaller white kid getting beat up on by a ghetto black, gets shot and killed by him the next day
>original ending the director wanted was derek staring in the mirror, full of grief, and deciding to shave his head again
>Edward Norton pitched a fit and had it changed to Derek reciting the final stanza of abe lincolns inaugural address (Abe wanted to send all the blacks to Liberia/Haiti after the civil war was over, but was assassinated)

While I get that the point being made is something about the cycle of hatred repeating itself, at the end of the day it's black people who spend the whole film murdering people for petty reasons and engaging in theft by trying to break into Dereks truck.

About the only thing Derek did that was legally wrong was curb stomping the second thief. But on the other hand we've got the utterly senseless murder of his father and brother by black people with zero impulse control, and yet the theme of the movie is that it's Derek who shouldn't have felt the way that he did.

The film casts essentially no critical judgement on the black people murdering white people, and spends all its time addressing how Derek feels about it.Image

For all the talk of "dereks dad planting the seeds of racism in him"

Was he really wrong about black people considering he was murdered while putting out a house fire for no particular reason by a black guy?
Making a black friend might show that yeah, not every person of a certain race is a caricature. But stereotypes still exist because they are found to be true often enough to be a good compass to run off of in the macro, if not the micro.
