    I don't think he's very smart even if he is playing a character. I think assuming he is has more to do with who his parents are and where he attended high school than anything that's ever come out of his mouth. For instance, if he were smart he would go the Kanye route and become a conservative. That's what I would do if I were in his shoes.

    Michael Berry is great listening. I have noticed that he and the lunch hour guys (that stupid aggie blogger and some cartoon character) still harp all the time on masks which surprises me given how little salience that issue has left in real life outside of maybe a handful of the more liberal states where these guys have few if any listeners.

    I don’t like Putin and he’s primarily responsible for what is taking place. However, the US has agency as well and the ability to affect events in Ukraine. I find it doubtful that the war would still be ongoing without our involvement. Indeed, it’s possible that the war would not have started he we chosen a different tack years ago before the fall of the Ukrainian government in 2014. With the above in mind, the US is at least possibly responsible for the ongoing loss of Russian and Ukrainian lives. That’s a real cost that will affect peoples lives there for a long time. A lot of sons, brothers, and fathers are gone. The US realizes this, but views the ongoing tragedy as a feature, not a bug. Moreover, it’s a feature specific to US’ material interests, not necessarily the Ukrainians’. You don’t find that to be a little disgusting? I think if the tables were turned you would.

    Not a Joe Rogan fan by any means but enjoyed the interview he did with David Fravor, the Navy F-18 pilot who witnessed the tic tac off of the USS Nimitz. I'm not familiar with many of the UFO encounter folks but Fravor came across as truthful in describing what he saw. It seems to me very difficult to explain the array of evidence (ship radar, visual identification, plane radar, weapons pod, etc.) from Fravor's encounter. Here's a re-creation of his encounter:

    If that’s your view then that’s fine just don’t also beat your chest about being a Christian or about the degeneracy of others.

    Even today, "destruction of your adversary's military" obviously entails a great amount of killing. Maybe if bleeding Russia out in Ukraine somehow saved the lives of Americans then it would be cause for celebration or at least a "necessary evil." That's not true though, and if anything it places our lives in harms way should the conflict escalate. Also, I am not defending Russia. Ultimately they are responsible for what is happening in Ukraine. Our role should be to minimize and de-escalate the conflict through negotiation. We aren't doing that and instead are doing the opposite of that - escalating the conflict as much as we can while keeping it within Ukraine. With Congress being little more than an arms dealer at this point, it's not surprising to see the glee from Crenshaw, but again it's odious and points to the rot within the soul of our nation.

    Tesla is a company that sells a few shoddy toys for city dwelling libs. Tesla having a valuation higher than the rest of the industry combined is risible. At the end of the day Tesla is a niche luxury brand and when/if EVs really take off it will be the big boys who make that happen, not Tesla. Twitter may also be overvalued depending on how many of its users are actually real but its unlikely to be overvalued to the same degree as Tesla.

    Jettisoning even the pretension that guys like Cruz are nothing more than very expensive whores.

    I think there's something deeply wrong with celebrating mass loss of human life, especially for someone like Crenshaw. If you worship Moloch then just come out and say it.

    I think Musk, like others of his ilk, uses his public persona to juice the price of his companies. It's not that different from what Holmes was doing except the concept behind Musk's product actually makes sense at a conceptual level - electric cars work unlike microfluidic-based blood testing. Teslas are shoddy, poorly manufactured vehicles but they at least work some of the time I guess.
  13. Starfleet Command
    The car company is obviously extremely overvalued. That's the point. The money isn't real and he needs a way to exchange the fake money for real money.
  14. Starfleet Command
    This is pretty hilarious. Musk knows that his money is only as good as Elizabeth Holmes' as long as its bound up in his scam companies. Buying twitter would be a good way of making that fortune real but unfortunately the other scams are not doing well enough to make the deal happen.

    GQP is just the GOP post-great recession. Crenshaw is a man out of time. There is very little appetite in this country for what he wants to do (wars). That time has passed.
  16. Starfleet Command
    Crenshaw basically said in another tweet that with Ukraine we are able to kill a great many of our enemy without losing one American soldier so what's not to like? Keep in mind the people being massacred are Christians and Crenshaw has the temerity to call himself one as well.
  17. Starfleet Command
    Jameson Ellis, whatever else you might say about him, appears to be a real human being. Crenshaw on the other hand was likely grown in a lab. He seems to me like a throwback to Bush-era conservatism, which in some ways (a million dead in Iraq over boldfaced lies, the formation of ISIS, etc.) is worse than what we have today.

    Perhaps a better solution would be to simply not provide public EMS services and let firms compete to more efficiently provide services desired by the market.
  19. Starfleet Command
    Are you saying they should house EMS personnel in homeless shelters? Maybe they should simply hire EMS from the ranks of homeless so they don’t need a place to live.

    They want America to be a third world country but on a larger scale with an unparalleled, world historical amount of money concentrated at the top.

    Shouldn't someone go to jail for stuff like this?
  23. Starfleet Command
    I'm surprised they aren't blaming the illegals for buying up all the gas. Isn't it also about time for those gargantuan migrant caravans to begin their long journey to the border with a FNC countdown clock tracking their eventual arrival on election day?

    Another reason why it's silly to compare the two countries is that when a high level executive commits fraud or another serious crime in China he or she is executed - shot point blank in the head - for their crimes. Is Musk willing to put his physical wellbeing at stake for a cheaper and more compliant workforce?
  25. Starfleet Command
    I just don't understand the mindset of these people. So you are supposed to be a slave to your employer - work as many hours for as little as possible without complaining - but also remember that raising a stable and loving family is one of the most sacred accomplishments one may garner in life. Whether or not you agree with the latter, how are there people so stupid they can't see those two things are in direct tension?
