  Yeah, I actually picked up on that yesterday.

  Someone that sent to traditional medicine gave me some. I think I will avoid it in the future.

  It has the same chemical in it aspirin does when you metabolize aspirin, so it’s good as an anti-inflammatory. It also helps to like calm the nerves and help you sleep.

  As that chemical is actually an endocannabinoid reuptake inhibitor. That’s how aspirin works.

  I agree with what you’re saying generally.

  But in the context of X, and Meta too. These are Nazi echo chambers. By design. It’s not an environment generally conducive to getting through to folks.

  If someone was closed-minded, you know around a campfire smoking a joint, I could probably plant some seeds right.

  But on X, I don’t think there’s anything I could say that would cut through their cognitive dissonance.

  Nazis don’t understand different perspectives. It’s essentially the definition.

  That said, I see value in posting for the peanut gallery (when I encounter Nazis here, I don’t go on Twitter).

  But debating Nazis? Hoping to change their minds?

  Nah, prefer to serve them knuckle sandwiches and go about my day.

  There is a grain of truth and all of that.

  It was essentially an IT department under the executive branch, the I don’t think anybody had even been staffed at since September. Trump basically renamed it and gave it a new mission statement.

  They picked a department, and converted it into Doge. They did this essentially to bypass congressional approval, because the department was already there.
