This is such unbridled horseshit. I live in fucking California, and I'm not sure if I've ever seen a Fuck Trump shirt/flag/bumper sticker/whatever in person. I can't go a day without seeing Let's Go B

Gavin Newsom's biggest mistake. Makes me question his intellect when listening to her now.  

I know you’re cracking wise...but seriously. There are some exercises in poor judgment that are so profound that they cause you to doubt the person’s judgment entirely. This is one of those.

I was being serious. How could anyone live with the vapidity? Why did he for so long?  That's suss for Gavin (added on to other suspect actions).  Poor judgment. 

I watched her CPAC speech. awful person. unhinged.

Quote:  “People are getting dumber. That's not a judgment; it's a global fact. In a host of leading nations, IQ scores have started to decline.”

https://www.wsj.com/articles/most-students-dont-know-when-news-is-fake-stanford-study-finds-1479752576

Quote: “Preteens and teens may appear dazzlingly fluent, flitting among social-media sites, uploading selfies and texting friends. But they’re often clueless about evaluating the accuracy and trustworthiness of what they find. 

Some 82% of middle-schoolers couldn’t distinguish between an ad labeled “sponsored content” and a real news story on a website, according to a Stanford University study of 7,804 students from middle school through college. The study, set for release Tuesday, is the biggest so far on how teens evaluate information they find online. Many students judged the credibility of newsy tweets based on how much detail they contained or whether a large photo was attached, rather than on the source.”

One of my favorite short stories is called “The Marching Morons,” a sort of vicious “Idicocracy” from the 1950s. Far in the future, “morons” far outweigh a tiny, set upon cognitive elite. The cognitive elites allow the morons to believe they are in control while working nonstop to prevent the morons from killing everyone and destroying the planet. But a complete collapse is on the horizon as the morons breed faster than the elites can solve the problems they create. 

Enter an man of average intelligence and cynicism from the mid-20th century who was in suspended animation after a freak dental accident. Although he’s not as intelligent as the cognitive elite, he is far more ruthless and finds a solution to the problem set— using Nazi propaganda and mid century marketing techniques, he convinces the morons that a literal paradise awaits them on Venus.  He engineers fake “postcards” and transmissions from early “Venusian settlers.” The morons willingly board rocket ships en masse that the elites simply shoot into the vastness of space and abandon. 
 

But the elites secretly hate the propagandeer— he’s from an era that could have solved the problem of uncontrolled idiot population growth without resorting to mass murder, but failed to act.  In the end, he is duped and loaded aboard one of the final rockets to be blasted into the sun.

I think there’s a lesson there for lots of current GOP rank and file, voters, and leaders.

Based on the angle of the photo relative to everything else, I’d interpret her boobs as her qualifications.

Uh, yeah. Newsom is obviously fucking clueless.

So - a longtime FB friend put this on FB. This is the face of the new GQP. Victimhood with racist sauce. The guy is your typical Trumpkin, evangelical, gun guy/hunter. Not a college grad. Not a reader. Has a binary view on lots of things. Not a nuance guy. Trump and the new GOP just sing to his soul. He is sick and tired of folks thinking he is a mildly racist hick because he is - ya know- a mildly racist hick.

I put this here for two reasons. One, to show the perfect example of a guy who thinks that his world is being stolen by malevolent non-white forces who hate Christians. Second, to comment that there are a shit ton of those folks in America. They are the 74 million, and while dying off, they are still a formidable force. To keep them engaged the GQP has to keep them fearful and angry. Victimhood is their sole currency. They have no ideas to solve anything. Hell, they don’t WANT to solve anything - it would tamp down their voter enthusiasm if the end was not near and the Old Glory Robot threat diminished.

Finally, his post is perfect Trumpkin thought. Here is my ignorant rant, so if you have a contrary view, don’t post a comment - unfriend me. I don’t care about your opinion and my mind won’t be changed on how whites are put upon.

Essence of fucking MAGA there...


I have something on my mind. I am not asking for agreement or disagreement...it's just my thoughts. What is going on in this country? Companies are asking employees to be less white. Really? Isn't that the very definition of racism. It seems like being white makes me a supremist, racist, bigot, ignorant, and privileged. My grandparents were immigrants from austria. My dad worked his ass off to achieve the American dream. I worked hard for everything I have. How does that make me priveleged? We are trying to achieve racial equality. I'm all for it. What makes us all equal? What is the standard we are going for? Is it working hard for the things you have? Or, is it something less than that? I am tired of being bullied into thinking that I'm bad because I believe in God, try to protect my family and the things I worked hard for and I am white. I never owned slaves, never killed anyone, never stolen anything, and never been a member of a hate group. I have tried to be a good person and do what i think is right. I m for all people who work hard, obey the law, and try to make something of them selves. I'm not going to apologize for being white.
No need to comment. I don't want your opinion. Unfriend me if you don't like me.

....which demonstrates the true disease that is killing us: toxic individualism.

Individualism and individual liberty are not only fine, they are important. But when they are at the expense of ANY interest in community, we, and the common good....that’s killing us.

By keeping people divided into little one person or one core family unit islands, we make ourselves vulnerable to....well, damned near everything.

And all the while, if these people just signed out of Facebook, then the entire culture war they're willing to tear down our democracy over would utterly dematerialize. They're raging so hard against Hollywood cancel culture as if they're the next ones that will be sent to the gulags, when they could end it instantly by just getting off the fucking internet.

It's not just toxic individualism, it's toxic individualism suffering from an insidious obsession with an imaginary collective enemy.
