Kamala: "2024 was the closest race of the century!! HE HAS NO MANDATE!!! NOT A MANDATE!!!! NO MANDATE!!"

Bruh, Kamala Harris's own salty, wound-licking book tour is somehow worse than Hillary Clinton's. At least Hillary had decades of experience as a Beltway insider. One could realistically argue that a Clinton administration would've been less tumultuous than Trump's. Don't be fooled; Hillary shot herself in the foot countless times during her campaign. She refused to get out of her own way, and she remained wholly indignant and entitled throughout her entire post-2016 election loss book tour. Even so? Clinton, as a jilted never-president, still had tangible plans and policy objectives that she could've reasonably executed. There's a reason why we have so many memes about informants on Hillary Clinton getting murdered. Kamala Harris had *nothing* to offer. Zip, nada, zilch, bupkis, nein, safar, zero, insert other word that means "zero" or "nothing" here. Her campaign website lacked policy documentation until the last 6-8 weeks of the campaign, and by that point, it was clearly a rehash of Biden's own policies and objectives. She couldn't do any live interviews unless they softballed her, and even then, there were tons of edits in post to make her sound halfway coherent. Her shrill, awkward laughter whenever she faced a difficult question was somehow more infuriating than Hillary Clinton's lies about being consistent in her positions. At least Hillary could make cogent points, even if they contradicted earlier positions she held! Kamala Harris also lacked any demonstrable backbone; she merely reacted with the most extreme positions of the prevailing view on any given topic. How will the federal government restore abortion rights? Full implementation of Roe v. Wade, precisely as it was? Roe was contentious not just among conservatives, but also among lifelong liberals, too! Unconditional support for Ukraine, even as bipartisan figures in Congress (and Biden himself) were losing patience with Zelensky's demands and the stagnation on the war front? A milquetoast "No, Benny Netty, you can't genocide the heckin' valid Palestinians! Oh, by the way, here's several billion dollars we're sending your way in military aid?"

I'm literally seeing people on my existing social media feeds saying that Kamala would've been better. I'm sorry, how?! Hillary, I could realistically buy as a "valid" alternative to Trump back in 2016. Kamala got demolished in the 2020 Democratic presidential primaries when Tulsi Gabbard rightly called out her colossal list of failures in the state of California, especially her track record with imprisoning black men for prison labour. She threw Joe Biden under the bus when people were #MeTooing him, saying "I believe them" when asked about what she thought of his accusers. She literally only got the spot of Vice President because Biden promised he'd appoint a black woman as his Vice President and heir apparent. Kamala Harris is what happens when you've inexplicably managed to fail upward for your entire career, and can't put two and two together that you're way out of your depth. At the barest of minimums, Hillary Clinton knew every damn thing that she was doing, and ever planned to do once in office. Kamala Harris, meanwhile, sounds like the wine auntie everyone hates but can't bring themselves to say "shut the hell up" because it's too impolite.
 
I thought I knew fatigue... I not only now know nigger fatigue I also know all out liberal fatigue.
I think we're at the point that its getting difficult to tell the difference.

Both chimp out violently when they don't get their own way, but what they want is a pile of contradictions and impossibilities that can't mutually exist. They are both seemingly aware of and happy with this contradiction, as they don't want to actually get the thing, they just want an excuse to be 'justifiably' violent. Its all performative showmanship for them and when real consequences come around, they don't even have the capability to understand what they did wrong.
 
You have no idea how many times I’ve read a story that’s supposed to set in medieval fanatsy setting only for everyone to still talk like they are in the current year.
I’m a huge Deadwood fan because the dialog is florid but feels period-appropriate. I couldn’t get through ‘Nosferatu’ earlier this year because its dialog was painfully discordant, written by someone who barely speaks technically correct English now and with some weird ideas as to the forms and nuances of nineteenth-century English.

In another of my posts I ranted about the poor quality of modern writing in general. Take that and combine it with a complete ignorance of actual speech patterns of the past and straight to the Zoomer bin your media goes.

It’s ironic that at a time information has never been more accessible, our schools are turning out semi-literate dysfunctionals who can barely speak coherently, let alone comprehend a sentence of more than eight words.

We are watching a generation being shorn from their past and taught that nothing matters but the moment. There is a widespread political hatred within education of literature by ‘straight white men of the western canon’, despite their wisdom passing the tests of time, blood and iron.

Which way forward? Our children’s children to be doomed to guttural grunts and half-sentences punctuated by ‘like’ and ‘nowmisayin’? Or do we sterilize any kid who can’t intelligently discuss Plato’s ‘The Republic’ by age 16?

Edit: fixed link so that it points to correct post.

a fantastic episode of TOS. it was a real lesson, and it was echoed a lot as computers became a more prominent part of day to day life in the corporate and government worlds of america in the 60s and 70s. bowie wrote the song "Savior Machine" and it tells a very similar kind of story
There were so many Trek episodes that explored the theme of how computer dependency would ultimately create a helpless society of dumb humans enslaved to computers and unable to think for themselves. I'm afraid we're already crossing into the era of that becoming a reality with this new push for omnipresent AI.

When AI makes everything, does everything, provides instant answers, people will lose all skills and abilities, including the ability to think and reason.
 
I had no idea you could tell people to attack federal agents on Facebook these days
Federal agencies are monitoring these pages probably to help build a case. It’s why they knew who the lady ramming her car into ICE was from a CBP intelligence report about her posts from last week. Probably the reason they aren’t getting removed yet.
 
Not only did New York FORGET but they're apologizing to the terrorists too. Out of all the states, New York might be the most buck broken. California's filled to the brim with commies sure, but New York had an attack on their heart by muslims and now they're handing the ideology that slaughtered their family members the throne to their biggest city. Truly, a group of people's so worthless and cucked they'd be considered dead weight in any other society.
 
i truly cannot wait for this to happen. mamdani being anti-lgbt might be the only thing i can think of that would wake these idiots up from retardation about the muslim-gay problem.
While it would be extremely funny to own the fags, it'll be bittersweet as it'll be done by Muslims. The same people already infecting cities like Dearborn, Hamtramck, Chicago, NYC, Houston, etc.

If anything bad happens, heads better roll. Yes these officers signed up for this. No, they did not sign up for Governors and police officers to turn their back on them and plot with the terrorists against them. This is bullshit.
