  1. Good luck. Personally, I trust doctors more than politicians (and health insurance companies.) Here’s yet another reason why: https://www.npr.org/2025/06/13/nx-s1-5431935/rfk-hhs-covid-vaccine-schedule-faq
  2. I assume they are armed. We now live under the rule of gun.
  3. Nvm Pancho covered it.
  4. In my mind, all future protests against the regime are silent, except for the loudly broadcast loop of El Degüello.
  5. Gave CNN the chance to broadcast this chyron: “Federal Courts side with Trump on National Guard deployment.”
  6. During my time at UT I went downtown to ridicule a Nazi rally. Maybe four dozen people showed up to moon the Klan. So, this will be my second public protest.
  7. It bears repeating the old saw about the two types of people: those who believe it possible to have enough money to live in comfort and happiness, and those with money. Most importantly, we have learned that people have accumulated enough wealth to all but destroy our Constitution. They are demonstrably a threat to national security. Should the needle be threaded, confiscatory taxes on extreme wealth should be a priority.
  8. Yep. But that doesn’t mean it isn’t true.
  9. turnip is a skilled politician. It is questionable as to whether he is actually leading. The argument that others, Thiel for example, are setting the agenda carries weight with me. I’ve seen what I thought were Waymos on fire. I’ve seen a teen throwing rocks at police vehicles as they sped by him. I’ve seen a squad car with smashed windows, though cops were using their batons to make the holes larger, apparently (to give police the benefit of the doubt.) But, like Stonekettle, I haven’t seen much to support the claim protestors are destroying shit. What have I missed? Edited to note that the Waymo destruction might well be ancillary to ICE, as I have read several posts from Los Angeleans making that claim.
  10. Another aspect I find interesting, even hopeful, about the World Cup is the extent to which soccer fans, from all over the world, can influence US politics. We’ve seen videos of a stadium of fans chanting “fuck ICE,” we have seen demonstrations in other nations, protests and parades, opposing our descent into fascism. Stands to reason that that energy will manifest in game broadcasts. At least, it will challenge the narrative that turnip is respected around the world.
  11. Yep, tautological arguments carry weight.
  12. What you call self-righteousness is what I call being right for almost a decade about the threat posed by turnip to our Constitution.
  13. I’ve seen videos of soccer stadium fans chanting “FUCK ICE.” Likely that chant will resurface at World Cup games. turnip will get mental when that happens on the world stage.
  14. Somehow I missed reports of obituaries which include a political plea from the departed this past election. I’ve seen such in past elections, and they undoubtedly exist, I just missed them.
