East Coast, in a land of perpetual noise from power equipment as small working class and middle class homes around me are demolished and replaced by mansions built by LLCs whose members are secret.

Typical Trump move. He was given permission to build trump tower on the site of the old Bonwit Teller Department store by promising he’d remove sculptures from Bonwit Teller’s wall intact and give them to a museum. He promised, then smashed the sculptures to pieces saying “Yeah, fuck that.”
While social scientists may look back and point to reasons why a mass hysteria event took place, nobody can predict ahead of time when it might happen.

You don’t know who will become an icon, what conspiracy theory will be taken seriously, or most importantly who will kill for their idol.
It’s some kind of mass delusion. Women weren’t flying through the air on broomsticks in 17th century but many were executed for being witches. People testified they saw all manner of weird goings-on just to get those women murdered

The Devils of Loudun, The Dance Plague, McMartin Day School…
“Governor Andrew Cuomo was actively involved in the formation of the conference, encouraging it to maintain Republican leadership of the chamber and providing tactical advice in order to keep more liberal New York City Democrats out of power.[19][20][21]”
Why would a democratic governor undermine his own party? Reelection. Cuomo wanted NY GOP politicians to endorse him or at least not attack him when he ran for reelection. It worked, btw. Many Republicans endorsed Cuomo

For Cuomo, it’s always about Cuomo. He and his brother are spoiled nepo babies
While governor of NY, the state legislature flipped from red to blue and Cuomo founded the independent Democratic Conference, a group of Democratic senators he instructed to vote with the GOP in order to keep downstate democrats from implementing a liberal agenda.

Go home! I’m not playing with you anymore! You can’t come to my house, so there.
But social media tells me Boomers are all NIMBY Karen Trumpers who hoarded all the wealth, pulled the ladder up after them and won’t sell their paid-off house for a cheap price to go live in a million dollar condo in a 55+ senior citizens complex

(The house they bought for $5000 on one salary)
Rich people don’t need special education. They have expensive prep schools with euphemisms for special education like “non-traditional learning division.”
Right, Barron?
Not to mention how many boomers I see out there while social media insists boomers are brain damaged (by lead) NIMBY Karens who hoarded all the wealth, pulled ladder up behind them, demand grandchildren from younger generation & refuse to sell their paid-off house and move into $1M senior condo.
It’s like when the FBI discovered police depts across US were being infiltrated by white nationalists in 2006

10 years after this, PBS asked FBI what they did to address problem. FBI said “We notified police depts this was happening”

IOW, they told police to police the police
…smart appliances. So I bought old fashioned communications devices - blackboards & chalk. Wet a washcloth and wipe away whatever you wrote to the person you’re “talking to” at home, ie:

“Maybe we start withdrawing money from bank, plan to leave area by 12/2. Pack clothes. Head for border”
I bought small handheld blackboards and chalk a few years back. I saw tv true crime show - cops broke into house, placed bugs in couple’s bedroom. The couple were whispering in bed and bug picked up dialogue loud and clear. I realized a government could do the same with smart tv, cellphone…
But …but social media has been telling me for at least the last 10 years that boomers are Karen NIMBYs who love Trump, hoarded all the wealth and pulled the ladder up behind them, snickering the whole time, whilst demanding the younger generations produce grandchildren for them.

I’m so confused
And he’s a nepo baby, big surprise

He’s at least the 3rd generation of inherited wealth and power in California

And yes he’s related to nepo baby David Benioff of HBO Game of Thrones fame

Another family of media/hedge fund/tech investor/banking (Goldman Sachs) nepo’s going back at least 75 years
You mean being an heir to billions.

Ack is a nepo baby who inherited everything he has

He’s a horrible businessman and a horrible person. But he’s born into billions, so he gets to claim the right to “debate” people running for office, the right to lead a bike rally and to run Harvard university

(And that’s how we find ourselves here today. Because a military that was engaged in unlawful, immoral activity despaired at the effect it had on normal people, so it sought out obedient religious zealots and was relieved to find they existed in what the GOP called “the southern strategy”)
3/ “giving the noncoms the confidence to do what majors and colonels in other armies do. The Christian fundamentalism was the hidden hand that changed the military for the better. Though you try to get someone to admit it! We never could have pulled off Macedonia or Bosnia with the old Vietnam Army”
2/ indiscipline of the Vietnam-era Army. "This zeal reformed behavior, empowered junior leaders, and demanded better recruits," he said.

"For one thing, drinking stopped, and that killed off the officers' clubs, which, in turn, broke down more barriers between officers and noncoms…
1/ From a 2003 interview in the Atlantic of a US military colonel who praised the infiltration of the military by evangelicals:

The full flowering of the middle ranks had its roots in the social transformation of the American military, when the rise of Christian evangelicalism had helped stop the…

Why doesn’t Bobby have 11 children like his father?

Or 9 children like his grandparents?

Six is not enough
Aw come on they’re just a couple of wee bairns as my granny would say.
