pls pls pls first LLM senator
- Comment on Probably accurate 3 days ago:
250 years isn’t that soon.
- Comment on Could the Supreme Court overturning Marbury vs Madison be a way to repeal the US Constitution? 1 week ago:
Not really. Effectively, the Court is checked by their legitimacy. That’s why they’re actually concerned about how the appear to the public and which way the political winds are blowing. If they go too far and do something truly radical, like repeal the Constitution, they’d probably be killed.

We are limited by our material conditions. In an ideal world, every Nazi would be reeducated.
We don’t have the capacity or the time for that. We have to stop them by any means necessary, before it’s too late.

What the fuck are you talking about?

Run me over… on the beach?
- Comment on Sound of silence 2 weeks ago:
Aw that’s not fair - they think about themselves all the time! They spend so much time thinking about themselves, in fact, that they don’t have the extra brain power to spare for the rest of us.
- Comment on Sound of silence 2 weeks ago:
I have come to understand that there is a subset of people that have never spared a thought for anyone else. They probably have never even considered the fact that I don’t want to listen to their stupid bullshit. The thought never crossed their mind, not even once.

You sound like a man.
- Comment on Hillary Clinton Says Biden’s Re-election Bid Was a ‘Terrible Mistake’ 2 weeks ago:
What do you think a Party even is? Do you think it’s a liberal social club? That the DNC is just a bunch of like-minded individuals?
The Party is an institution, with its own leadership and structure and financiers and insiders. It’s an organization.
It’s baffling that you don’t think a political party has a political agenda.
- Comment on Hillary Clinton Says Biden’s Re-election Bid Was a ‘Terrible Mistake’ 2 weeks ago:
I’m baffled by your reply - what does it have to do with my comment?
My point is that party primaries are not fair, and they are not intended to be fair. The Democrats could make a primary rule that forbids socialists from even running as Democrats, and it would be entirely legal. Primary rules are not the same as general election rules. Any socialist trying to run as a Democrat should run under the assumption that the Party will put its thumbs on the scale.
- Comment on Hillary Clinton Says Biden’s Re-election Bid Was a ‘Terrible Mistake’ 2 weeks ago:
I will never believe the 2020 Iowa caucus was legitimate - the Iowa Democratic Party chair resigned after that disaster and Iowa lost its first in the nation status because of how badly it fucked things up.
- Comment on Average person eats six times more chicken than in 1961, UN report finds | Agriculture is the second most polluting sector of the global economy 4 weeks ago:
Obviously just statistical error. The average person eats about the same amount of chicken. Chicken Georg, who lives in cave & eats over 10,000 each day, is an outlier and should not be counted.
- Comment on Has anyone else noticed the strong pro CCP and anti-west vibes here? 4 weeks ago:
That would require reading a book that wasn’t assigned to them by their government in school, and they’d rather die.
- Comment on The Matrix 5 weeks ago:
I wonder if they did it intentionally.
Changing the pill from red to blue basically cost them nothing and served no purpose, but just so happened to ruin the metaphor.
- Comment on The Matrix 5 weeks ago:
But my estradiol is a blue pill? 🤔
- Comment on Hail corporate (they did it tho) 1 month ago:
No. Profit is revenue in excess of costs, yes, but the cost of building a table isn’t merely the cost of the materials. Costs also include the time and effort spent building the table, the time and effort spent learning to build tables, and the cost of acquiring tools with which to build, and the cost of having a space in which to build.
When you factor these other costs in to the table, the builder breaks even. Yes, even if they end up with more money than with which they started. They simply exchanged their time and effort for money, but they can never get that time back can they?

Yeah, adult dinosaur toys would have feathers.
- Comment on Hail corporate (they did it tho) 1 month ago:
Instead of paying workers what they are worth, they are paid a market wage that is always less than the value they produce.
That’s where profit comes from.

So you’re the reason they haven’t gone out of business.

Yeah dude, the country brutalized by economic sanctions with its currency in free-fall can afford better PR than the richest country on Earth. 🤡

- Comment on The unAbomber. Otherwise, I agree. 3 months ago:
You’re being sanctimonious again.
There are the people who agree that terrorism is bad, but want to discuss the things he had to say anyway. For them, you’re just ignoring the premise of the thread with your oh so brave condemnation of terrorism. It’s not that they disagree with your condemnation, but rather, they want to discuss him and the things they agree with despite it.
- Comment on The unAbomber. Otherwise, I agree. 3 months ago:
And you’re so brave for condemning terrorism.
- Comment on The Iranians HAVE to realize that demanding the release of the unredacted Epstein files as a condition to re-open the strait of Hormuz is probably the strongest card they have right now... 3 months ago:
Because it’s damning for both parties.
- Comment on The unAbomber. Otherwise, I agree. 3 months ago:
I think the contentious part is you acting sanctimonious about it. I know it rubbed me the wrong way, hence, my sarcasm.
- Comment on The unAbomber. Otherwise, I agree. 3 months ago:
Damn you’re so brave for condemning the unybomber.

He lost ONE debate about gun control and now he won’t show his face anymore.

The most frequent porn watchers don’t fantasize about meeting new people and having sex with them, they fantasize about having sex with someone that’s already nearby so they don’t have to go anywhere or do anything.
- Comment on Which government he might be talking about 🤔 3 months ago:
And wouldn’t you know it? The same states where child marriage is legal are also states where marital rape is treated as legally distinct from non-marital rape. As recently as 2003, twenty-six states retained marital immunity in one form or another.
In Iowa, for example, subsection (2) of article 709.4 Sexual abuse in third degree, excludes sexual acts committed by adults with children as young as 12, provided the parties are “cohabiting as husband and wife.”
