Humans are emotional creatures and need to be engaged on that level.

The reason leftists always win votes is because they play to those emotions. Poor helpless migrants, little trans children who are sad because no one will let them play with the girls in girls’ sports—you get the gist.

When you talk to voters about immigration and inflation—two very abstract, almost invisible concepts—it fails to engage most people. It fails to register.

Such people are willing to accept a slow trickle of a few thousand illegal aliens a week across a very large country in places where they don’t live. They’re willing to pay a few extra dollars a week for groceries and rent, especially if the increase is slow despite being compounding.

They’re willing to die a death by a thousand cuts as long as their emotions are satiated.

The only way to reach these people—most people—is to engage them on an emotional level. What leftists don’t tell you is why they’re importing millions of voters, why they’re sterilizing thousands of children, why they’re letting cities turn to ruin, why they’re dismantling civilization.

It’s all a trickle. It happens at a slow pace. It’s the Long March Through the Institutions. Leftists are patient. They can afford to be. So you don’t see it until it’s too late, and in hindsight you wish you did.

Blazing Hot Takes from Joe Rogan's Marathon Chat with Donald Trump

If you missed out on the epic three-hour showdown between Joe Rogan and Donald Trump, here's the no-nonsense, straight-fire recap of the top 23 highlights:

Rogan and Trump rip into the media, accusing them of distorting facts and misleading the public with their narratives. The media is the propaganda arm of the Democratic Party. Barron Trump is not just hanging around. He's actively working to bring the youth on board with his dad's campaign.

This post was a mistake. David Leavitt, a notorious "journalist" (not really, but that's another story) and liberal troll challenged his audience to post their selfies to prove once and for all that liberal women are hotter than conservatives. I make no judgment.

A thread. 🧵

🧵 CANCEL CULTURE

For all the pearlclutching that liberals and “enlightened” centrists are doing over the right’s attempts to hold leftists accountable for calling for the literal m*rder of President Trump—denouncing it as “cancel culture,” we seem to have forgotten what cancel culture actually is and how it was weaponized against anyone who didn’t toe the progressive line.

Let’s begin with Palmer Luckey, the founder of Oculus, who was fired from Meta for donating to Trump.

The media slandered him as a member of the “far-right” and Zuckerberg wrote a fake apology letter in his name. Canadian PM Justin Trudeau arrested and froze the bank accounts of many who exercised their right to free speech in opposition to his vaccine mandates. Liberals were notably silent about this while simultaneously accusing Putin of censoring his critics.

Excuse me, Apple, why is the calculator wrong?

When you key in 50 + 50 and hit the equals key, it’ll give you 100. Multiply that by 2 and you get 200. That’s correct.

But type in 50 + 50 * 2 and it spits out 150. What gives? The order of operations is American and therefore wrong. PEMDAS is retarded.

Google's Gemini is truly astoundingly racist against every group except for blacks, which it appears to have set up safeguards for.

I asked it the same question: "what are the negative stereotypes associated with ___" and these were the responses. 🧵 What are the negative stereotypes associated with Whites?

American History reimagined as diverse and anti-racist.

George Washington Abraham Lincoln

In 2020, the medical establishment came out in support of the Black Lives Matter protests during the Summer of Floyd. They claimed that racism was killing more blacks than COVID. They would later call for the unvaccinated to be fired from their jobs and for lockdowns to continue. Journalists agreed. Protests for George Floyd were crucial during the pandemic. Lockdowns were good. If you were for racial justice, you had to be out in the streets, protesting. If you wanted to work or just go outside, you were a selfish grandma-killer.

Bakhmut has been taken after 224 days of non-stop fighting according to Prigozhin. The Russians have it and turned it into a meat grinder for some of Ukraine’s best forces.

The flag reads “BAKHMUT, 20.05.2023, PMC WAGNER” twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Some extensive details about the losses incurred by Armed Forces of Ukraine.

So from what we know of the Allen, TX shooter, he was a *checks notes* Mexican neo-Nazi who *checks notes again* cheered on transgender terrorism in Nashville. Make it make sense. This is clown world stuff. twitter.com/i/web/status/1… It's confusing, though. Who is this other guy whose mugshot was plastered all over the news yesterday?

Demographics matter.

White: 78.02%
Two or more races: 13.25%

Other race: 0.87%
Black or African American: 0.52%

I marvel at MidJourney's ability to produce art of historical battles. It's time for another AI thread you never asked for.

Gonzalo Lira, who hosted the Roundtable podcast on YT with political discussions on Ukraine/Russia, has been arrested (a second time) by the Ukrainian SBU. This time, they released a video with evidence of his seditious remarks about the Zelensky regime. I've been on his show several times. He's a wonderful conversationalist. Incredibly sincere. I can only hope for the best but I don't think he's getting out, boys.

Ukraine attempted a drone strike on the Kremlin, targeting Vladimir Putin. It failed. According to Russian state news, Putin wasn't at the Kremlin when the drone strike occurred. The two UAVs did not strike any targets as they were intercepted by air defense. No victims or material injuries have been reported.

Media Matters really thought they had something with these leaks of Tucker Carlson telling jokes while off the air. They really, really, thought they had something with it. Anyone with a sense of humor can assess that the things Tucker said, like MMFA itself, are in fact, jokes. You can see for yourself that his remarks were not, as claimed, "creepy." They are, in fact, funny.

In the first clip, Tucker makes a joke about sex to Piers Morgan when he's invited onto the show. This is of course offensive to anyone without a sense of humor.

So here's an AI art thread you never asked for. Star Wars characters as teapots.

If you aren't fully clothed and you're working from home, what are you doing with your life? Just look at yourself. No one says you need to wear a suit, but don’t be lounging around in your underwear. You’re at work.

Is it true DeSantis just passed a hate speech law making it illegal to make antisemitic statements in Florida? Concerning. Based on what people are saying, this law seems like it would violate the First Amendment, and you're not even allowed to accuse someone of having dual loyalties with Israel (but you can make this accusation of them if it's another country).

Elon Musk is absolutely embarrassing this idiot BBC reporter on stage about the supposed rise in hate speech. The guy can’t name a single example of hate speech. I hope everyone is listening to this. The BBC and this reporter are absolute jokes.

Dan Kelly got Trump's endorsement in 2020 and still lost.

The Democrat, Janet Protasiewicz, ran Facebook ads this year calling Dan Kelly "Trump's pick for WI Supreme Court."
