As a silent crowd watches a man seemingly commit suicide by setting himself on fire, a brave Orthodox
#Jewish
man risks his own life to save the stranger.
This viral video by French performance artist

was a test of humanity.
So many in the silent crowd failed, but
Asians being less likely to experience discrimination if they are obese because Americans think that means they aren't foreign might be the funniest social science find of the decade
There is a certain kind of tragic female student who attends every class, sits in the front row, diligently asks questions, takes the most meticulous color-coded notes, and then miserably fails the course
Imagine being a hapa Jew elementary school kid and your parents force you to dress like this and run a lemonade stance and then you get robbed by urban youths and then a billion internet leftist shitheads decide that you're the one making the blameworthy choices
Its legit insane to me that liberals believe the Night of the Long Knives was some kind of anti-gay hate crime and not the result of a brutal internecine power struggle
Holy shit that Joseph Rosenbaum guy Rittenhouse killed really was a pedophile. I thought people were doing the Vox Day thing or making a big deal out of dating a 17 year old but he molested five boys between the ages of nine and eleven WTF
This is just cope for 'gifted kids' and their parents. The amount of material one needs to memorize in order to flourish in American schools is minuscule, its not like burdensome expectations of rote memorization are holding genuinely creative or critical types back
idk maybe he thinks suffering is inextricably bound up with the human condition regardless of what economic system we find ourselves in and your belief that suffering can be eradicated through shifting property relations is naive and might paradoxically lead to more suffering
the 'land back' stuff has all sorts of weird shit but i think my favorite is this belief that native americans are like druids in world of warcraft who could magically heal the planet if only capitalists weren't stopping them
This stuff is genuinely freakish, uncanny, unnerving. The fact that these people even entertain the notion that this whack material might be persuasive indicates that something is just profoundly wrong with them on a fundamental level.
Jordan Peterson is 100% headed for another, even more catastrophic breakdown and its twisted that his daughter and conservative media are trying to milk him as much as possible before that happens (which of course only hastens its arrival)
Was reading about the history of self-immolations and I learned that in 1990 dozens Indians burned themselves to death to protest *in favor* of the caste system.
whats absolutely fucking mental about this is not just the total lack of reaction to the fatal shooting but how they calmly resume arguing after it happens, its like literal Skyrim NPC "never should have come here. Good day!" dialogue
Nathan J Robinson opted to nuke his entire organization instead of relinquish creative control and compromise his singular vision of a magazine that publishes 30,000 word articles about not understanding zizek, it’s like something out of an Ayn Rand novel
What bothers me about the student loan talk is that for most people college really is a scam, not for the usual conservative reasons (eg the dumb idea that the humanities are 'useless') but because the level of academic rigor is so unbelievably low
Its mindblowing how Amy Siskind was able to rebrand with no one bothering to look into her past. She used to write for the Daily Caller, was a huge Palin supporter, was chummy with Steve Bannon, implied Obama was a secret Muslim out to kill Israelis
If a black conservatarian blew away two white anarchists engaging in mob violence then Republicans would demand he be put on our currency. That would be the holy grail, the fantasy come to life, they would cry tears of joy
Been blocked by Dave Rubin for ages but just want to go on record that renting out some indigent eastern euro woman's womb and denying the child his or her mother so you can play act a freak mirror of heterosexual domesticity is gross
Why would this guy
@PaulSkallas
plagiarize my tweet and use it in his newsletter? You can still make the same point by sharing or linking to the original. Weird.
It is mind blowing - and I mean completely fucking mind blowing - that these freaks are going to reskin Second Life 15 years after it came out and it then value it at hundreds of billions of dollars
We should be moving toward a right to sex. People should be able to have sex when they feel they want to, and we need to develop services that meet people’s needs without attaching the baggage of shame or criminalization.
So let’s talk about sex.
its fucked up how bill gates essentially lucked out in the 90s and became obscenely rich and now just inserts himself as the authority on global health, environmentalism, pretty much everything and we're supposed to defer to him because he has a huge pile of money
Luckily my dad raised me right, otherwise I might have gone to the floor to talk about this insurrectionist who sleeps with a pervert. I am grateful I was raised to be a decent human and not a deprived person who shamefully defecates & defiles the House of Representatives. 🙏🏽 God
Man, Glenn Greenwald seems to have a thing for attacking young, ambitious, successful women. I got it back in 2013, now it’s
@TaylorLorenz
and
@NatashaBertrand
in his crosshairs. We see you, Glenn.
Imagine being a 14 y/o boy who liked a Pewdiepie vid and your neurotic freak of a mom finds out and the next day you come home from school and you’re greeted with “Tell MOTHER why Trevor Noah is funny! Is it because he punches up or down?! Tell MOTHER where Trevor Noah punches!”
You can also watch political comedy shows with him, like Trevor Noah, John Oliver, Hasan Minhaj. Talk about what makes their jokes funny - who are the butt of the jokes? Do they "punch up" or down?
Thinking about that time a certifiably insane white woman claimed her 'Grand Wizard klansman' father hacked 30+ Vietnamese fishermen to death on a boat and thousands of lefties believed her
People are gonna joke about Kanye. People are gonna blame his mental health. But the truth is that he’s normalizing Nazism for a whole lot of people. I know that word is overused but folks will be googling Hitler tonight. It’s so incredibly dangerous.
Borders should be abolished.
Cops should be redacted.
Religion should be eradicated.
The existent political parties should be disbanded.
Capitalism should be destroyed.
Culture should be dissolved.
All existent institutions should be under CONSTANT assault.
The solution to children's biographies of Kamala Harris isn't children's biographies of Amy Coney Barrett, its to introduce kids to good literature and more broadly, a rich intellectual life. Everyone involved in this is TRASH, just a disgusting culture
"I'd like to see the principal!" says a young Thomas Sowell, in
@bethanyshondark
’s kids’ book.
Why?
Because Sowell's new teachers wanted to put him in a lower grade. He fought, and won.
Books like that are a new alternative to activists’ victimhood propaganda:
interesting that one of their complaints is that the cost of basic items like ground beef is too high, a concern people on this website assured me was entitled fretting over 'treats' lol
NEW: Striking concrete workers in Seattle have shut down the city’s $23 billion construction industry.
The
@teamsters
are fighting for higher wages & better health benefits for retirees.
34 workers walked out in November. Now 300+ workers at 6 companies are on a general strike.
When anti-vaxxers rack up tens of thousands of dollars in hospital bills, who pays?
Think about it, and you'll realize that their political positions are effectively being subsidized by members of insurance pools, taxpayers, and the vaccinated.
Your tweet is “comedy policing” for zoomers/millennials- the perfunctory disavowal of an explicit churchlady moralizing (“I don’t want to be *shrill*”) followed immediately by a covert moralizing (“but that is cringe and pathetic!”) with the same content
>Every other right wing e-celeb crashes and burns
> Lindsay Ellis arrested and executed
> Happy marriage and family
> Successful business with his own wagies
> Initiates chain of events that causes world's richest man to convert to CLASSICAL LIBERALISM and safeguard FREE SPEECH
If you were actually a serious communist (you're not) then your boss would hate you and want to get rid of you before you organized your coworkers. The fact that you guys pal around and are on such amicable terms shows he understands you better than you understand yourself
One specific, notorious advantage of red light cameras is that they are generally pretty damn racist, placed at intersections in poor, ethnic neighborhoods and not in places where mayonnaise folks like will live.
Prince Harry says Googling and watching Meghan Markle's ‘Suits’ sex scenes was a “mistake”:
“I’d witnessed her and a castmate mauling each other in some sort of office or conference room. I didn’t need to see such things live.”

styxhexenhammer conversed with demons so he could learn all the secrets of the earth and the air and ended up having the EXACT same beliefs as sean hannity
"Professor Chomsky, do you think neoliberalism is exhausting its capacity to sustain itself?"
"Listen what I did - or did not do - with Jeffrey Epstein is frankly none of your damn business."
"uhh"
"What you've never had an acquaintance move some money around? You're perfect?"
Beginning to think these people might not be sincere in their Christian conviction and instead use the faith, its symbols, aesthetics, material culture etc as a grabbag for their shitty art
The week Charles Krauthammer died a bunch of conservative luminaries eulogized him as a thinker whose profound insights would shape generations and no one has mentioned him since
"🎶Ooh, baby do you know what that's worth? Ooh, Heaven is a place on Earth🎶"
"The clarion call of every tyrant from Robespierre to Mao"
"🎶They say that in Heaven, love comes first. We'll make Heaven a place on Earth🎶"
"You'll make a mountain of corpses and learn NOTHING!!"
