  There is no doubt at all that Stephen Miller sees the parallels to Horst Wessel. In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if he felt that they absolutely NEEDED a Hort Wessel at this moment in history, and engineered one.

  Literally every single thing we know about Charlie Kirk’s alleged assassin comes directly from Pam Bondi’s DoJ and Kash Patel’s FBI, so consider the source on everything you hear.

  Good points. It wasn’t that the Nazis hated the Jews so much, but they were a convenient group to attack, knowing the ignorant antisemitic population would go along with it, at least long enough for it to be too late to stop it.

  So our modern MAGA Nazis need their scapegoats, and undocumented immigrants is an easy one to dehumanize. But just like the Nazis, there are plenty of alternatives, too.

  And by the way, the MAGAs still hate Jews, they just want to get control of Gaza so they can build the Jewish Dubai, and not have to give their money to Muslims when they luxuriate.

  Also, many of them think Jewish women are hot, so take that extra bit of cringe.

  This is just an example of a common phenomenon - raging homophobes who are secretly gay, avowed racists who are attracted to black people, etc. it would be hilarious if it weren’t so twisted and perverse.

  Stephen “PeeWee Himmler” Miller is Jewish, too. All demographic groups have their self-hating contingent, and he’s a perfect example.

  He obviously loves Nazi stuff, and fancies himself the equivalent of a high command Nazi, but the MAGAs like to dismiss that criticism because “he’s Jewish, obviously he isn’t a Nazi,” but his ACTIONS and WORDS demonstrate the opposite.

  Besides, it’s a pretty stupid argument that Jews can’t act like Nazis, when their entire homeland is embroiled in a literal genocide at this very moment.

  Any Jewish right to claim special victim status because they were once the victims of genocide, has been lost. History will record Israel as a perpetrator of genocide, and PeeWee Himmler is an ally.

  I think the bigger issue with the trades is the overtime culture and excessive hours most of them face. With better hours with the same pay i think the whole industry and workers standards would benefit.

  That’s exactly what unions are for.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Gen Z job crisis: Maybe there are just too many college graduates now⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Excellent post, and I’m glad you looped in the student loan issue. That’s the real problem.

  Everyone would get a college diploma if they could afford it, it’s never going to HURT your career plans. The problem is if it is WORTH the incredible cost of it? If it leads to career that is lucrative enough to pay off that debt, then it’s worth it, but more and more it either doesn’t lead to that job, or the job it leads to doesn’t pay enough to pay off the loan. That’s just a bad investment, and we shouldn’t be encouraging and facilitating young people to get themselves into enslaving debt at the very beginning of their adult lives.

  We have to start seeing runaway student loan debt as a National Security problem. We are already seeing major changes in societal structures, as more and more young, working adults live with their parents, living in a vehicle is becoming a viable housing choice, people are avoiding marriage because they don’t want to combine their student loan debt (or take on someone else’s), couples aren’t having children, they aren’t buying houses, furniture, etc. Some people are even deferring retirement because they STILL have student loan debt to pay off first.

  In another time, all those people with motorized e-bikes or skateboards would have been driving cars, but the cost of even a used car is too expensive. Too bad you can’t live in it, too.

  It is already starting to affect our economy, and every year we graduate another wave of Americans into a lifetime of crippling debt that will keep them from properly contributing to the economy. How many more years can we do this before there just aren’t enough people who can afford to live in this society?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Gen Z job crisis: Maybe there are just too many college graduates now⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  For the last 18 years I’ve owned a business that does events on college campuses, so I’ve talked to literally thousands of college students about their majors and future career plans. Over the years I’ve seen zillions of Software Development majors, or similar, and we always talked about how they’ll always have a safe career.

  Apparently, we were all wrong.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What Trump’s H-1B crackdown means for Big Tech workers⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  That problem is easily solved by adjusting the pay scales.

  The problem with that solution is that then some Sociopathic Oligarch makes a billion dollars less that he doesn’t need.

  “I didn’t do it! That video is fake! Look there’s six fingers on my left hand in that video! It’s obviously phony!”

  “But you do have six fingers on your left hand.”

  “But the video is still phony, though.”

  “Uh-huh…”

  I hope it’s a lot of them. Religious psychos are a scourge on humanity. The fewer the better.

  I’m doing G. It would have Amy favorite comfort foods, plus Mexican food. If the point extends to Italy, then it’s perfect.

  Who would pick H? What’s up there, poutine and seal blubber?

  I hadn’t heard that about him, and yet he’s a valued member of this administration. More virtuosic incompetence from the MAGA Nazis.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨proof of wormholes⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Makes sense. Go MAGA!

  /S

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨proof of wormholes⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Or they WANT them to feel pain. These people are psychopaths. It’s usually best to assume the worst possible motivations for their actions.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Beware, another "wonderful" conservative instance to "free us" has appeared ⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  If you support it with your words, your actions, and your vote, then you own it. MAGA followers are every bit as bad as the leaders.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Beware, another "wonderful" conservative instance to "free us" has appeared ⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  While I think that your first section makes a spectacularly excellent point that I had y considered before, your second section broke my brain.

  Section one: Excellent point. As Trickle Down Economics spread, and life in America slowly declined as inflation/cost of living steadily outpaced incomes at an increasingly speed, the conservatives managed to blame the problems on liberals, minorities, and immigrants. I hadn’t looked at it that way, as an excuse why Trickle Down wasn’t fixing everything, but it is absolutely true.

  Section 2: You are still trying to figure out if the MAGAs motivations are valid or not? Did you just become conscious a month ago? Because it has been apparent that MAGA is about nothing but money and control since they came on the scene a decade ago. Since then, they have become indelibly tied to treason, corruption, pedophilia, racism, misogyny, ignorance, stupidity, and virtuosic incompetence.

  And you are still doing your research? Dude…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Beware, another "wonderful" conservative instance to "free us" has appeared ⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Good luck to you, my friend. You have far more friends out here than you think. Look for us, we’ll help you.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Beware, another "wonderful" conservative instance to "free us" has appeared ⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Which is why the opposition should reclaim the flag. It has become a religious fetish to MAGA, and the Left has to take it back, and reintroduce it as a symbol of Freedom, not treason pedophilia, and corruption.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Beware, another "wonderful" conservative instance to "free us" has appeared ⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  They are so immersed in the Conservative Propaganda Machine that they are literally living in an alternative reality from 2/3 of America, and the entire rest of the planet. They have created all these imaginary enemies attacking them on every front, and they think THEY are the ones living real life, and the rest of us side with their imaginary enemy.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Duh, because I want them to hear from an angry longtime customer. They know that a person like me, who bothers to write to them, represents thousands of similar customers. If they hear from enough people, they may change their minds.

  Veiny boobs are unattractive. I suggest piping on a lacey pattern, like lingerie.

  The elves are getting lonely. Is there a Tinder for elves? “L-vy Love” or something.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Eh, Fuck them, what are they going to do about it? You think I gave them my name and address?

  Besides, I haven’t done anything wrong. I just told them of my intention, and that’s not illegal. Maybe I’ll follow through, maybe I won’t. I’m Schrodinger’s Pirate.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Disney sells us imaginary heroes while supporting real world villains.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  It reminds me of a meme I recently saw of a preacher in front of a bunch of Indians, and he says “Before we came, you worshipped the SUN!”

  And one of the Indians says “Dude, the sun is real.”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The man show was a left wing attack on incels.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  The Man Show really turned me off to him, and I ignored his late night show for a long time. Then I started watching him when his son was having medical issues, and he started talking about the health insurance problems in America, and I realized he was a decent man with similar views to mine.

  Actors/ Entertainers have to scratch & claw at the beginning of their careers, and it’s hard to walk away from a regular paycheck. The experience he got on that awful show allowed him to do a great job on a really good show, so perhaps it was worth it.

  I’m sure he cringes at MAN Showe memories, too.

  They lied.

  It’s not a perfect system, but it still hurts them. They won’t be satisfied with SOME of the money, they want it ALL.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I play the guitar. I once knew a guy that pumped iron through ever commercial break.

  None of that is the point. They want the chance to get into your brain, and if you don’t even allow the ads to run, then they lose that opportunity.

  They paid out all that money, and you’re getting it for free. Corporations hate that more than anything.
