This guy spent his life freaking out in public about how the most milquetoast Republicans possible were Hitler incarnate until he shot himself Would be closer to a Will Stancil type now than anything

We created:
- the slippery slipe fallacy, to pretend precedent doesn't matter
- ad hominem, to pretend indiv character, experience, motivation doesn't matter
- causation=/=correlation, to pretend noticing patterns means nothing & should be left to specialist Causation Experts In each case, my old redditor skeptical atheist ass should've been asking the proper foucauldian questions: what function does this style of discourse serve, and who benefits from it

It's actually admirably honest bc it's what this is all implying, but they should be more clear: there is an authority in the exec branch above and beyond POTUS that has true classification authority and is where power lays That's why they're using Espionage Act, no? Because they can try to use category of "National Defence Information" from it that can be spun as separate from POTUS' usual role as ultimate classification authority? Which implies another, higher Decider?

Huh, more conservative than I assumed (especially Horner at finance). Was assuming the most prominent squishy calgary moderates (sawhney, schulz) would be getting looks at the highest profile positions like Finance or Jusitce 4/8 old wild rosers left in caucus - Jean, Pitt, Nixon, Loewen (tho Cooper should be taken out of the denominator probably for speaker reasons)

I think there's...10 MLAs who signed anti-vaxpass letter left, 5 in cabinet now (Pitt, Loewen, Neudorf, Sigurdson, Horner)

Trump only dipped his toe in Rubicon, Dems fully crossed it w/o much fanfare in 16-17: making the gamble that if they weaponize state institutions against the state's ostensible leader, they better make damn sure-through any necessary means-that his ppl never hold that same power Once you've gone there, you can't really go back. Gotta let it all play out under the rational assumption that your enemies can never hold the powers you used against them

Very weird thread, being aggressive and cruel is EXACTLY what worked to let a subset of men gain access to single-sex women's spaces
Image The entire thread: showing how emotional manipulation and appeals to prosociality/ostracism worked incredibly well for the TRA folk, with not that much effort

The poster: and that's what you SHOULDNT do if you hope to convince women 🧐

V for Vendetta is nuts to rewatch now as a mid-millenial coming of political age as an atheist teen in Bush-Obama years

Wow crazy if the govt introduced a virus as an excuse to control media and institute mass surveillance and curfews. It'll be the theocrat homophobes, right? .....right??
