If you've ever been to a naturalization ceremony, you know they're filled with people whose palpable love of this country is twenty times stronger than the pinched "patriotism" of any native-born MAGA chud.
Just unspeakable assholery.

Remember folks: if you have any small amount of artistic talent, any sex appeal, or can make your friends laugh, the richest man on earth is crying screaming throwing up because he can’t be you.

I would suggest there is much more support for public guillotining.
A Palantir billionaire just called for public hangings.
“It's time to bring back masculine leadership to protect our most vulnerable,” writes Joe Lonsdale.
This is where Silicon Valley authoritarianism is heading:

I did exactly the same, but wrote “fuck off” on a piece of paper and posted it back to them.
I live in Wales and today received my Join Us letter from Reform UK, complete with SAE which I posted back to them, immediately, empty. If every other person in Wales did this, Reform would spend over £1.5 million on postage. Not sorry. Join me Cymru.

This is genuinely an amazing photo. apart from, like everything else, you don't normally see the way the feathers are being bashed around by the air and water when birds are flying. Astonishing.

Favorite images of 2025, Day 6: A roseate spoonbill splashes its wings through the water, causing an explosion of droplets as it looks straight ahead towards the camera. One of my favorite photos I've ever taken. #birds

For The Netherlands, it's Pim Fortuyn.
Every country has That One Cunt. A former political leader whose terrible policies are still responsible for most of the problems with the country to this day. For Brits it's Thatcher. For Americans it's Reagan. No matter where you are, there's always one.

The global financial crisis of 2008 has had a greater impact on the 21st century than The War on Terror ever did. It is odd that there is not many examples of popular culture addressing it.
