Thanks; this was a public service

He sort of explains where he’s coming from with that, in Hillbilly Elegy. His grandparents had explosive tempers and were capable of violence, but they stayed together - and that was the most stability he had, I think. His chamelionism started early, too - sucked up to Mom’s boyfriends for survival

Vance deserves to be impeached, too, for his lying and general unprofessionalism.

But Vance will serve their interests, too! The need to shitcan Trump, and tell Vance that NATO is sacrosanct, we’re supporting Ukraine, and we’re having free & fair elections in November Otherwise he can serve the technofascists all he wants. Then we’ll see what the midterms bring.

I don't have numbers here, but I would be shocked to find many recent migrants. Per Pew, fewer than a third of Hmong in the US are migrants at all, the rest are US-born, and of the original waves following Vietnam, virtually all have been naturalized by now.

The vast majority of what’s happening is communal self-defense. It’s not an about agitating or escalating. The whistles, the honking, the yelling — these are efforts by people to warn and protect their neighbors. 2/3
