I had an issue with a big tech company that threatened my livelihood. On day 1 I realized their automated system had just made an error. Sent dozens of emails, called multiple times, but they kept denying my appeals without explanation. Every single person I talked to was Indian. This went on for more than a month. My income suddenly went to $0 for no reason. I repeatedly calmly explained what had happened and how what their system was claiming was impossible. Denial almost instantly. No one used real names. I don’t think they were even reading my emails.

I know this might be hard to understand, but, I actually don't support leftist terrorism. I want the situation in the United States to improve.

The fact that conservatives can easily be reasoned into supporting or at least ratifying leftist terrorism does not inspire confidence. Beating a dead horse at this point but it was insane how many people on here supported the Floyd Riots initially. Most responses from conservatives were surrender or passivity. Leftists won decisively and the entire country suffered for it. Very bad reflexes.

I think the belief that everything is some kind of conspiracy has turned into a kind of nihilism in rightwing spaces. A smart person can come up with a plausible narrative to link various factoids together, but today people often don't know or care if those facts are true. Often the stuff people are inventing a conspiracy based off of is very dubious while the most obvious explanation doesn't actually give you many reasons to doubt it. Do I believe some mentally ill Redditor would kill a rich guy seen as representative of various social ills? Yes.

@jlippincott_ Read “A Disease of the Public Mind” by Thomas Fleming. The motivations for the Secession Crisis and the civil war it spiraled into went far beyond that even if secession was always a dumb idea. @jlippincott_ Imagine if a pro-choice activist known for murdering random Republicans (regardless of their views on abortion) staged a terrorist attack in a Red State, only for him to became a hero in blue states, and the lawyer of the men who financed the attack became governor of California.

I am once again asking you to please read my 5 part series on the Russian Revolution. This was written so that anyone could understand it, even with zero background knowledge. It is very important that you know this story. Lots of parallels to today!

theconundrumcluster.com/p/you-should-r… Here's part 2, which covers the immediate aftermath of the Revolution and the political tensions that moved pre- and post-Revolution Russia.

Cannot be overstated that these people live inside a fake world created for them by tv and movies Most murders are solved by the murderer confessing, and not after torture. Civil Rights era saw huge restrictions on police interactions and early intervention of (often free) lawyers. Can say this is more fair but it undeniably decreased clearance rates by preventing confessions

Daily reminder: When the NYC subway Marine was arrested on bogus murder charges, Tim Pool (multimillionaire podcaster) not only condemned him, he told others they shouldn’t do anything to help.

He changed his mind after pushback but that was his first instinct. Why? He’s stupid. Rogan supporting RFK is going to get attacked because supporting RFK is throwing away your vote in a close election—don’t know why it’s hard for “dissidents” to support Trump when the alternative is the most radical leftwing agenda in history, but they could at least say nothing.

Stay mad, libtard
Image Never forget: These people want to relitigate the Civil War because the National Reconciliation unambiguously worked. Adopting a conciliatory approach to the defeated South allowed the US to become the most powerful country in the world. That's what they're really mad about.

Hate this rhetoric. No one says what they actually mean. There isn't a civil war coming—civil wars have sides

There's no opposition organization capable of producing systemic change. What people mean is by "civil war" is "the situation is bad" but situations can get bad forever I hate predictions for a civil war because they end up lulling people into inaction, as if civil wars just come into being when the situation gets "bad enough."

People don't take opportunities that are presented to them or end up pursuing things that have no chance of success.

Rittenhouse is a paid political activist with 1.2 million followers. He read a pre-written statement, almost certainly at the behest of his boss, telling people not to vote for Trump on principle.

People are right to point out that this entire incident was contrived and stupid. I don't think that Kyle Rittenhouse felt so strongly about Ron Paul (who retired when Rittenhouse was 10 years old) that he earnestly supports him, or that he thinks that Trump is unacceptably compromised on the 2nd Amendment—I think his NeverTrump boss told him to condemn Trump.

One thing I'm taken aback by is the shamelessness of many of the people who contributed to the disaster.

Take V. N. Lvov, the guy whose lies triggered the Kornilov Affair (kicking the door open for the Bolshevik takeover)

Lvov fled overseas after the Bolshevik coup... (1/?)
Image Abandoned his family in his escape, never saw them again.

Didn't bother to help with White Army at all during the Russian Civil War. In fact, in the final stages of the war he gave public speeches demanding that France and other powers stop supporting Wrangel. (2/?)

Absolutely terrible post. Just buzzword slop that could have been written by AI. I'm tired of self-important stupid people trying to use RW Twitter like LinkedIn. Better to talk about immigration, crime, anti-white discrimination, etc. (tangible problems that affect people's lives) because the second set proposed ("Local building of parallel systems") are so vague they're impossible to have substantive public discussion of. Buzzword slop.

Everyone pretending that it's up in the air whether or not you should support Trump now is beyond useless. That includes people who say that they only "might" vote for him because of X or Y flaw. I almost have more contempt with people who try to argue with them about what they claim their problem with Trump is. Most of these people will cynically pivot at some point in the next few months. The conversation is not real.

I finally found a better definition of communism in the book "Americanism versus Bolshevism," written in 1924 Image It's always funny to read stuff from that period and realize that even without all the freakshow show stuff we see today, people "got it" almost immediately

By popular demand, here is the official Mystery Grove Film Recommendations list. Watch all of these in order if you want to truly understand the world we live in today. The Naked Gun (1988) is a flawless comedy following the intrepid detectives of Los Angeles' elite Police Squad as they stumble through their mission to prevent the assassination of the Queen of England. The sequels are excellent as well.

Here's a list of books to help you understand the Russian Revolution/early USSR.

Characters who did nothing wrong ImageImage Niko acts like a huge sanctimonious prick to Francis after you kill Derrick for him even though Derrick was by all accounts the biggest piece of shit in the world and planning to sell out Francis (single-handedly annihilating crime in liberty city) for money to buy more heroin.
