was epstein uniquely responsible for evil or is he just the one obscenely wealthy person whose emails we're getting to read
“Notorious pedophile Jeffrey Epstein played a role in convincing Bobby Kotick to embrace loot boxes, essentially gambling for children” what is this sentence, what is this world

for instance, and i'm not being funny, i don't see how the US gets out of this without a period of what is at core not exactly liberal democracy
Any real democrat has to allow for the possibility that his enemies might take power in an election. Unfortunately, this means that there are circumstances where very few people in a given society will be real democrats.

Culture warriors cancel new U of A law dean before she started - Arkansas Times
Culture warriors claim the scalp of Emily Suski, the would-be law school dean whose legal opinion on transgender athletes seems to have offended Arkansas officials.

This is the dynamic across most of America: Liberal cities generate revenue, which state governments then transfer to benefit conservative rural areas, whose residents despite city-dwellers and consistently vote to harm them. But politicians endlessly pander to rural voters and demonize cities.
Another critical piece of missing context in this story: tax dollars flow from the MSP metro to rural Minnesota. People in the city subsidize the lifestyles of people living in the country minnesotareformer.com/2023/12/04/t...

This is gonna sound harsh but you gotta stop talking to these hicks out in bumfuck towns. I know these people. They know less than nothing, it all comes from newsmax and facebook. They live in a fantasy world and everything they have is because of the cities they hate. They aren’t real Americans.
NYTimes has truly outdone itself with this latest in its "ask white guys in diner" genre. Thank goodness we get a perspective on what's happening in Minneapolis from people in **Nisswa** who probably mean Brainerd when they say they "prefer not to go the city anymore" www.nytimes.com/2026/01/15/u...

Everyone's like 'Oh Britain sent *one guy* to Greenland - that'll stop the Green Berets lololol'. That dude's there to straight up *die* if shit pops off. He's a landmine that the US can't step on because it will mean war with all of Europe.

I’ve started using the term “ethnic cleansing campaign” to describe the ICE occupation here in Minnesota. This is deliberate because the reality on the ground is that, at a given moment, any non-white person can be kidnapped by masked federal paramilitaries regardless of their constitutional rights.

The only president who has never had even 50% approval from Gallup is entering the second decade of his opposition saying "Yeah, I guess the American people really love this guy, we should meet them in the middle."

Everyone here seems to be posting screenshots of whatever Tr*mp is up to, so here’s something nicer: a model train layout, left behind by its owner who passed away years ago, now quietly gathering dust in a 300‑year‑old house somewhere…
Here’s my buddy Clas in the middle of it.
