American politics has devolved into shitposting and aura farming

The Frog is owning the president.

seems like a non-insignificant percentage of rage against the machine's fanbase are young republican men driving SUVs bopping their head to anti-oil, pro-immigrant songs thinking the lyrics are about how they wish their suburban parents would get off their back

Tom Morello tweets: "Fascinating that all those “don’t tread on me” posers and their AR-15’s are nowhere to be seen and government tyranny is instead being opposed by a guy in an inflatable frog suit."

Someone named Manny replies: "@grok
why do some people say Tom Morello and band mates are RAGE FOR THE MACHINE and not against ?"

Rather annoyed to discover the term for a writing system that has no vowels is 'abjad' a word that is solidly 40% vowel. Linguists, please try harder.

Tbf the police are so unbothered by bike theft (far too many violent Palestine supporting grannies to be arrested).

putting it out there, portable angle grinders should be licensed. Fine if you work on a building site but if you don't then you're a bike thief....
