  • In capitalist countries, about 100 years ago the artistic community decided it had had enough of the filthy commoners and decided to exclude them from art. Permanently. Today, it's not getting better, it's getting worse.

    Art simply isn't a part of anyone's lives any more. Unless you're well-off and have pretty much run out of things to buy. Then you fill that hole in your life with art buying and people kissing your ass because you're a "patron of the arts".


  • Well yeah. They're men who have no place in a demasculinized society. Used to be, society would find a purpose for these men and set them on their path. With a matchmaker if necessary. Now? They've got nothing. They've figured out that humans aren't meant to live this way, and are really distressed and freaked out about it. These men used to be silent, but now we can hear them. And boy, we sure don't like what they have to say. Remember back when liberals thought that giving everyone in the world a voice and letting them talk together was going to fix every problem and would be the best thing ever? 20 years ago none of these people would have talked to more than a thousand people in their lives.

    I'm betting on AI. Before long it will be able to detect them from social clues and vocabulary patterns and we'll be able to silence them again. The end of internet anonymity would be a big step forward, too. China requires real-name registration to use any social network. Upset the users, and you get banned and can not return.









  • Rather than face up to the fact that Hillary Clinton had little appeal outside of Goldman Sachs and whatever the Project for a New American Century is called these days, Democrats cursed Sanders fans, third-party voters, and non-voters with a hatred usually reserved for vegans. Since they can only imagine their own upper-middle class lives orbiting major urban centers, the loudest Democrats think that everyone who's not exactly like them is a racist, woman-hating cretin, and hope "that they be educated and moved to the vicinity of the major hubs in the northeast and western parts, that they die off [or] that a country would attack the United States and obliterate them." Rather than actually learn anything of substance, liberals are did the only thing their politics really involve: sharing and commiserating over an extremely circumscribed set of insipid pop-culture references that flatter them and insulate them from reality. Those leftist critiques of Obama or Clinton that do manage to penetrate this fantasy-world get angrily dismissed as right-wing media conspiracy theories or Kremlin propaganda. And finally, as with any good whitewash, liberals pretended that Donald Trump represents something totally alien and uniquely menacing, as though Obama didn't do everything Trump says he would.



  • Looks like it should have T R U M P inscribed on the points of the star, and the deer is wearing a MAGA hat and sticking its tongue out. And it has a motion sensor that causes it to move around and play a Ted Nugent song when anyone comes near.
