I've never listened to Red Scare but the next positive thing I hear about it will be the first
"Nekrasova has made controversial statements in the past. In a 2023 New Yorker story, she was quoted as saying, “Francis is not the real Pope, we all know it. … You’re not gonna get rid of the Freemasons. You’re not gonna get rid of the Jews. They infiltrated the Church a long time ago.”"

If a university is named after a city or state, it should become a public university with public-university tuition. Penn? Public school. NYU and UChicago? Prepare to beg for money at city council meetings. Southern Cal? Go hang with East Carolina and UCF and the rest of the directional schools.
"my least woke opinion is---"

That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.

Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

i'd love to read a real evolution of "stay woke" - i saw it evolve as:
1. in black culture, a way of pointing out structural racism
2. on black twitter, same thing but often a joke about something silly
3. white people adopt woke to mean generic antiracism
4. conservatives learn a new n-word
“woke” as i recall originated as a kind of ironic conspiratorial posting thing on black twitter (“stay woke”), and then conservatives decided it was just “political correctness” in the millennial era bsky.app/profile/unst...
I think many of them thought woke is just like clinton-era "political correctness" when the latter was imposed from the top by imbeciles who didn't know anything about anything and woke has always been a genuinely grassroots initiative

Saw a Reddit post where a guitarist was asking what to do when he doesn't feel motivated to practice. Half the replies were like, "Oh, I always want to practice!" or "I don't know how to stop practicing!" and like I'm happy for you guys but you're not really solving the problem at hand, you know?

$39 a year folks. Thats what killing 600,000 to date will save you.

Would it be nice to live on a world where every country with the means worked to make the world a better place?

Yes. Of course.

In the meantime if you say preventing the deaths of millions isn’t worth $3 a month, fuck you.
I dunno. I do like our government spending less money anywhere they can. I like even more if my taxes go down as a result. Since when is our job to be the world’s mom and dad? Did other countries step up to fill that gap?

Not that there could ever be any justification for cutting off this kind of aid, but what did we even gain from this? Half a million dead and for what? The thrill of owning the libs?
One analytical model shows that, as of November 5th, the dismantling of U.S.A.I.D. has already caused the deaths of 600,000 people, two-thirds of them children. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/jUzNSc

You can’t gleefully cheer on the demonization and firing of civil servants in the place they all live then be upset that your neighbors don’t care if you live or die. Vogt said he wanted government employees scared to go to work, this is the political environment they built.
There's so many of these btw, NoVa right wingers realizing that their neighbors genuinely hate them
