I ever tell you guys about the time I was in a Vegas park and (at least to my somewhat trained eye) Jerma985 walked by with Markiplier? They were dressed in jeans and light puffy jackets and were deep in conversation. I heard them say only one word as they passed: "Amogus."
It was a perfect moment.
I ever tell you guys about the time I was in Central park and (at least to my somewhat trained eye) John Lennon walked by with Yoko Ono? They were dressed in bell bottoms and black turtlenecks and were deep in conversation. I heard them say only one word as they passed: "Walrus." It was a perfect moment.
I ever tell you guys about the time I was in Central park and (at least to my somewhat trained eye) Bernie Sanders walked by with Chris Matthews? Bernie was dressed in a Mao suit and Fidel hat and was deep in monologue. I heard him say only one word as they passed: “Guillotines.” It was a perfect moment.

This is the essence of why I hate liberalism.
Marxists view "success" as improving people's lives, i.e. increasing the amount of wealth each individual has, getting people out poverty, improving life expectancy, improving literacy, improving home ownership rates, improving access to health care, so on and so forth.
Liberals view "success" as bringing people "freedumb and democrazy", even if that entails completely destroying their living standards, killing tons of people, driving people into immense poverty, preventing their country from developing.
But it makes no sense because if "democracy" comes from the Greek, "demos kratia," meaning, "people's power." If the people actually had the power, why would they not use the political institutions to improve their livelihoods? So how do liberals reconcile this contradiction that you can have "democracy" while at the same time not having expected outcomes from democracy?
They resolve this contradiction by reducing "democracy" down to mere rituals. If you perform the rituals, you're a "democracy." If you don't, you're a ”dictatorship." The actual outcomes of the rituals don't matter, if people's lives aren't improving, if they're even getting worse, it's all justified as long as people are performing the correct rituals.
This makes liberal understanding of "democracy" better understood as a state religion rather than any actual real desire to give power to the people. They, in fact, always, consistently, praise the destruction of living standards as long as those rituals get to be performed. Libya is a great example of this, but so is all of eastern Europe, so is the million who died of COVID in the US while they call China "authoritarian" for protecting its people.
What in the gilded and glorious fuck is up with these people's names?
Hi I'm Rotherick Beauregard and my somewhat trained eye watched Gabriel Eton-Smith walk with Strom Hotzenplotz in a Denver park
I somehow never noticed in that video that when he says the gibberish bit, Kamala turns her head to him and nods.
I ever tell you guys about the time I was in a Coruscant park and (at least to my somewhat trained eye) Senator Palpatine walked by with Count Dooku? They were dressed in dark robes and were deep in conversation. I heard them say only one word as they passed: “Republic.” It was a perfect moment.
I saw Micheal Bennett at a grocery store in Denver yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything.
He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?”
I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying.
Ochre is far to expressive a color for a puffy jacket. Acceptable colors for techbro attire are Frisco Storm Grey, Ash Black, Heather, Light Heather, and Wan Navy. "Evil-toned" pastels get a pass, but only on days when you fire interns.
