THE POPULATIONS OF OCCUPIED COUNTRIES ARE USUALLY SUBJECTED TO PROPAGANDA AIMED AT DIMINISHING NATIONAL PRIDE:

DO NOT TRUST CHINA. CHINA IS ASSHOLE:

Tweet concludes, “The CCP is deadly scared of its collapsed birth rate, and wants to bring ours down to their level. They view this as grand civilizational competition and so should we.”

Why, it’s as if TikTok maybe a Chinese superweapon or something.

THE MULLAHS AREN’T SENDING THEIR BEST: UAE says it detected 2 missiles fired from Iran; both fell into water.

Iran’s firing of missiles at the UAE comes as talks between the U.S. and Iran appear to have fallen apart.

“There are no talks or conversations going on, or scheduled, with the Islamic Republic of Iran,” President Trump wrote Tuesday morning on Truth Social.

The president doubled down on his calls to annex the Strait of Hormuz, a crucial waterway dividing Iran and Oman, by posting an image of a map with the strait being labeled as a U.S. territory.

“We control it with the blockade, and I like the idea of declaring it a territory,” Trump told reporters at the White House on Monday when asked about the waterway.

Trolling?

THE NOMENKLATURA OF THE PROLETARIAT:

Guessing he might not do all that much electrical work.

COMMUNIST COSPLAY:

Plus, why do they invariably have such outdated reactionary 19th century white supremacist worldviews? Marx Was an Othering White Male!

THEY’RE ALWAYS TRYING TO SILENCE PEOPLE:

EVIDENCE EXPERTS LAUD GOSPELS: Two men who know a thing or three about what constitutes trustworthy evidence — one a former investigative journalist, the other a former LA police detective specializing in solving cold murder cases — explain on HillFaith this morning why they concluded the Gospels are trustworthy sources about the life, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

ALL OF THE “NEW DEAL” NEEDS A STAKE THROUGH THE HEART AND TO BE BURIED AT A CROSSROADS:  A Very Bad Supreme Court Decision.

We never needed a “New Deal”. We need the old, Constitutional deal. The one that worked and continues to work.

HAVING AI WRITE FOR YOU (OR PLOT) FOR YOU IS A MUG’S GAME:  Technology is great until it isn’t.

AI can help with various things, including telling you where to find the information you need or helping you firm up a passage you’re having trouble visualizing. But it can never be the final product. By definition it is … not you?  My favorite moment recently was encountering a “I’ll never use AI to write disclaimer” on the front of a book that was written in near perfect Claude-Speak, completely unedited. Was it written with Claude? I don’t know. And I’m not engaging in the great 21st century witchhunt so I’m not telling you what the book is. But the juxtaposition of pious disavowal and the AI speak was hilarious. Maybe it was performance art?

DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE!  Sorting.
