- Comment on 🔥Leaked copy of the Epstein Files🔥 2 days ago:
No shortage of liberals in the Epstein emails. Larry Summers was asking him for dating advice while running around behind his own wife.
Trump doesn’t need to work hard to pin Epstein on a bunch of Hillarycrats and Cuomocrats. But then he’s culling the weakest parts of the liberal establishment and swinging the door wide open for Bernie, AOC, and Mamdani.

Jeffrey Epstein was a Mossad asset in the US, so I can’t say I’m shocked to see a bunch of his work censored to the hilt.

they do a single Google search, fail to understand the answer because typically they have the intelligence of a lump of cheese, and form a totally incoherent theory as a result
I mean, it’s more complicated than that on two levels.
Firstly, sports drinks like Gatorade were formulated for a very specific kind of short term high intensity activity (specifically, playing football in Florida during the summer). But for lower intensity and longer term exercising (anything over two hours - long distance running / biking / swimming, most notably) its generally worse for you than water. So expressing a degree of skepticism is warranted. That’s doubly so in the face of endless marketing and native advertisement in sports media.
Secondly, when you get into the dietary sciences and start running into contradictions between the more well-established benefits of drinking water relative to the dubious claims of marketing agencies, it can easily become difficult to determine what is and is not bullshit. Because Google itself has been marketed as a valuable tool for research and analysis, and because so much of our academic infrastructure has been privatized (Google being a prime example), even the most intellectually curious and level headed can become overwhelmed with the task of “Doing Your Own Research”.
Flat earthers primary reason for believing the earth is flat is that otherwise water wouldn’t form puddles and lakes it would always be flowing downhill.
The primary reason for believing the Earth is flat is that the ground is flat in much of the country. People don’t natively intuit that the earth is round, they have to be told or to engage in some fairly non-intuitive experimentation. To grapple with the idea of a round earth, you have to start taking second and third hand accounts at face value or get reasonably good at geometry and have a certain bedrock faith in the accuracy of your calculations.
I’d argue that flat earthers are more curious and often more intelligent than their “I believe the earth is round cause that’s what they told me” set. And its often this curiosity - combined with some error in logic or bad initial data - that leads them to try and prove the unproveable so doggedly.

Conservatives get ZERO pussy
Everyone knows the Other Team is a bunch of unfuckable losers, while Our Team is irresistibly sexy. “Liberals get ZERO pussy” is the line you’ll see all over conservative online communities, typically complimented with “Look at these ugly idiots saying stupid shit” meme material.
At the same time, “all your teenagers are getting pregnant” is a line conservatives and liberals love to throw at one another. So you get to bend your brain into a pretzel trying to explain why everyone is - simultaneously - incel homebodies nobody wants to fuck and trailer trash having a dozen kids out of wedlock because they can’t control their animal urges.

Girls don’t hate their guts. Conservative women recognize this as virtue signaling and respond with the TradWife Pageantry in kind. These kinds of statements are purely performative. If you’ve grown up in these communities, you know that what you say in public (especially on TV) is totally different from what you do at home and behind closed doors.
There’s an old joke popular out in Utah. “How do you keep a Mormon from drinking all your beer? Invite over a second Mormon.”
When you’re first introduced to the culture, its hard to realize that everyone is lying constantly. But the longer you live in the miasma of deceit and bullshittery, the easier it is to recognize that nothing these people say is for anything other than appearances. You should know better than to believe them. They don’t really expect you to believe them (and periodically express frustration when you can’t catch a fucking hint and play along). And so long as everything you’re up to remains sub rosa, nobody wants to check.

It’s really sad to see what Donald has done to people’s brains.
This isn’t Trump. This is standard conservative brainworms going back to the Limbaugh Era and before. Just textbook Protestant-flavored Homophobic Misogyny. Dig through James Dobson’s prodigious backlog of public brainfarts or poke around in the Joe Pyne archives, you’ll find similar sentiments and commentary.
Enjoying good sex with one’s wife is now checks notes gay
Anything that gives a person undeserved pleasure is sinful. And the Protestant Work Ethic teaches us that only productive economy-stimulating labor is a worthwhile pursuit. Sex is a job, not a hobby. You do it to make the babies, not to experience any kind of corporeal pleasure.
raping children on an island is checks notes Ephebophilia
That falls under the “Very Rich Guy’s Addendum” to the Protestant Work Ethic. If you’re rich, it proves you worked harder than everyone else and none of the rules apply.

vaguely misogynistic, incel-like posts
They’re definitely horny. Idk if I’d go for misogynistic and incel-like. People can fuck and meme, occasionally even at the same time.

Neoliberals love to slap rainbow flags on brutal oligarchical governments, while downplaying or denying the civil rights abuses of friendly countries.
And they love to kick and scream about historical wrongs committed by prior leaders, while dismissing any kind of reform or social advancement in the last generation.
meanwhile back at home… in conservative areas…
Back in liberal areas you still see conservative state and local administrators treating LGBTQ as pariahs and punishing them for any kind of outspoken queerness. You’re allowed to be gay in the US only as long as you are indistinguishable from all your straight peers. If you look gay - even in bleeding heart of NYC or the Hollywood Hills - you’re going to take shit from the police, the mayor, and most major employers.
American liberalism is entirely a legal fiction. In the free market, it might as well not exist.

Yup. Federal contracts, grants, and subsidies that could be funding federal agencies are being pocketed by these sex pests.

It’s a clear sign the government isn’t, itself, spending enough on spaceflight and associated R&D.
Turning our next generation of economic and military supremacy over to the dipshit horn dogs that tanked retail sales and fucked up the post office seems like a huge mistake.

Sheeple running around a black cube to worship some imaginary sky-friend.
Stupid idiots, gathering together in celebration of a shared philosophy that spans race, language, and over a millennium of social change. I can’t believe anyone would waste so much time and energy to visit an archeological touchstone and show even a modicum of awe.
The Kabba is going on my shit list right alongside the Great Pyramids of Egypt, the Hagia Sophia, and Tenochtitlan. Sheeple! SHEEPLE!
