This explains so much of modern conservativism. This plus looking to place blame.
"My child was perfect and has been replaced by a changeling baby," but in the year 2025.
some significant part of this is just catch-all fear for “this is not the child I ordered” I think

Unironically, I have quoted this probably more than any other literally reference.

It is a cute photo (fat cats are cute which is maybe part of the problem).
I'm worried about GLP-1 drugs being a short cut for undisciplined owners and the muscle loss (that older cats already struggle with) that will likely accompany its use.

If enough kids stayed home and schools had to go back to Covid-style remote classes, this might actually get Maga to support ICE way less. The last thing they want is to stay home with their kids again.

Guys who think of themselves as "intellectuals" are some of the biggest creeps in the world.
Ah, yes, the elites we’re supposed to admire.

Clinton should come out and say "yeah he blew me" (true or not). He could save the country. It's literally the one thing they would never forgive Trump for.

The 50 year mortgage idea kind of proves Maga are capable of having critical thought but only if it personally affects them. They can tell when the leopards are eating their own face which is more credit than I've previously given them.

He is a computer safety researcher.
And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine.

I hate that progressism isn't willing to take baby steps when the alternative is literally Trump. The Harris resistance libs at least understood how much worse Trump is.
Let this moment be a wakeup call to stop taking some of the far-left seriously.
Mamdani isn't good enough for them. Nor is Rep. AOC. Nor is Sen. Sanders. No one is good enough for them.

Disagree. They lost the non Maga when they caved. Now they'll also lose Maga when they try to get the sane people back. Would be better if this served as a cautionary tale you couldn't undo.
I can’t wait to see Disney’s stock on Monday. They said Kimmel could be brought back as soon as Monday. Let’s strongly incentivize them to do so.

I predict some time in my life, Charlie Kirk Remberence Day will be changed to a broader "Gun Violence Day of Remberence" and more centered on the lost children. I also predict Maga will be furious.

Imagine if celebrities just left Twitter, as well. It'd be as much of a ghost town as Truth Social. Entertainers are where the power lies in this.

If someone says they are antifa, it just means they are anti fascist, just like someone saying they are vegan, means they don't eat animals. "Veganism" isn't an organization, either.
