White Christian Nationalists are terrified of two facts that are becoming increasingly hard to ignore:
1) White people did not civilize the world; they plundered it. Your family tradition of "hard work" rides on the back of stolen land, stolen labor, and stolen wealth.

2) All of the pleasures they gave up out of fear of their vengeful gods were for naught. Now all they can do is make everyone else as miserable as they are, because the fundamental ability to admit the lies of their religion has been beaten out of them for generations.
Once you close the circle by saying "Anything that contradicts my beliefs is Satanic", no one can move you. Only you can step out of the cage you have built at that point.

America has never come to terms with its past. American Exceptionalism is a translucent skirt over some serious body horror.

I've watched clips of the "fight". His opponent really was not good in a technical sense. Glad to see the other boxer got the job done all the same.
Andrew Tate had one job coming back to America
Make more toxic masculinity
All he had to do was perform confidence, articulate misogyny, and pick no fights he couldn’t win
And he picked a fight with a professional
That’s about all she wrote for toxic masculinity

Conservative men have no interest in a partner. They want a pet, a maid, and a fleshlight.

Today's first smile was seeing Andrew Tate face down in a boxing ring.
Today's first frown was finding out that I couldn't quote-post it.

I'm not really a boxing fan, but I might have paid money to watch this happen in real time.
I quote from Andrew Tate’s X profile:
‘Unmatched perspicacity coupled with sheer indefatigability makes me a feared opponent in any realm of human endeavour.’
Erm…
This is certainly not the case when it comes to boxing Andy.
Oh dear.
You poor little love.

It's time to move these buildings into a public trust, managed by an elected board, and overseen by the city. Housing is a human right.
The homes of more than 10,000 New Yorkers are now at stake. One of NYC's most notorious landlords, Pinnacle Group, has sent 93 buildings -- 5,000 rent-stabilized apartments -- to a bankruptcy auction

(If this quote is true) Adams was half right, although I must admit that freedom of (and from) religion beats a long series of wars to decide what the national faith will be.
I'm not convinced that the Founders intended anything more high-minded than that with the First Amendment.

I know the abortion "debate" is about controlling women, not saving lives, but I have to ask:
How many babies will a dead woman carry to term?
Abortion is health care.

Quotas have no place in law enforcement.

BOVINO: That figure is something, um, that we talked about and it's definitely something that's attainable

And the billionaires backing him make Yosemite Sam look like the second coming of Machiavelli.
You can't afford hamburger. Trump is starting a war with Venezuela. Masked men are kidnapping and brutalizing people on America's streets. And what is the MAGA media's biggest concern? If the government should be using a san-serif font for official documents. Makes Nero look like a musical genius.

Universal healthcare would be far cheaper than what America has now, but supposed "financial geniuses" haven't yet grasped the concept of prevention being less costly than emergency care.

Wealth has become utterly uncoupled from Labor.
BILL BURR: “If someone’s working 160 hours a month and can’t make their rent, you’re not paying them enough. Maybe you should just be worth $900,000,000… How does a CEO take a f*cking 8 figure bonus and none of your employees have dental insurance?”

My partner's cancer treatments are on hold right now because of insurance changes.
Ossoff: "She's gonna have to give up her insurance in the middle of chemotherapy while she's fighting breast cancer. What are people supposed to do when they lose health insurance in the middle of a cancer battle? ... this is life or death"

Rewrite everything.
The Supreme Court, Presidency, Senate and two party system are all quite anti-democratic institutions as presently constructed.
Our institutions are not only incapable of preventing tyranny—they’re currently enabling it.
When democracy returns, we need to reform our political system.

Most (R) seem to believe that if you are sick (impure) and poor (lazy) that you should die. Doing nothing is exactly what their religious extremists want, because suffering will force you into the orbit of their Overlord and savior.
