- Comment on BACK IT UP 1 month ago:
One the one hand, yes, I expect there to be internal pushback on this one. On the other hand, the HHS Secretary reports directly to the least Christian man in America.
- Comment on flouride 1 month ago:
Democrats would love it. Republicans would suddenly discover that flouride is the only thing standing between our children and the gay agenda.

- Comment on 18 treated for severe nausea in Stuttgart after opera of live sex and piercing 3 months ago:
Making it cheaper doesn’t change people’s taste, it’s still mostly for the rich, now they’re just getting a subsidy they didn’t need from the taxpayer. If people want to spend their money on art that’s perfectly fine, what I’m objecting to is the taxpayer being obligated to do so.
- Comment on 18 treated for severe nausea in Stuttgart after opera of live sex and piercing 3 months ago:
That a private enterprise wouldn’t be able to make this work should give us a hint that it doesn’t benefit enough people for it to be worthwhile, opera is a luxury good consumed by relatively few, relatively affluent people. Why should the taxpayer subsidize their hobby? Actors don’t need a billion dollar opera house to perform, they could do it in a school auditorium if necessary. Those tax dollars could have been spent on any number of other things like healthcare and education.

That’s easy, just give him a AAA credit rating and call it a bond, some pension fund will buy it.
- Comment on Why does the USA have so few legal protections for ordinary people, and how can we change that? 4 months ago:
Reading the comments here and it sounds like the only solution for people with first world problems who earn a good salary is violent revolution. Utterly deranged.

Legally there’s nothing they can do
- Comment on In Stunning Letter To Congress, Zuckerberg Admits Biden-Harris Pressured Facebook To Censor Content 4 months ago:

The food and car companies aren’t doing anything to stop this, either. I wonder if maybe we should open a company that is specialized in fighting crime.
- Comment on Founder and CEO of Telegram messaging service arrested in France 4 months ago:
What should be criminal is forcing private citizens to act as police officers and throwing them in jail if they refuse.
