The behavior of our big beautiful billionaires over the past several decades is psychologically what I can only describe as "Crying out for consequences." They can't stop themselves and deep down they need to be stopped. They need it as much as we do

Itās not about drugs. If it was, Trump wouldnāt have pardoned one of the largest narco traffickers in the world last month. Itās about oil and regime change. And they need a trial now to pretend that it isnāt. Especially to distract from his sinking under Epstein and skyrocketing healthcare costs.

In the 2010s, this country's elites were thrown onto social platforms with everyone else and could finally read what we all think about them and it caused them so much psychic damage that they decided to destroy both the internet and democracy to make sure nothing like it ever happened again.

In case it ever comes up: I am categorically opposed to political violence and assassination. It is both morally wrong and almost always ineffective at achieving positive social change. It is, bluntly, a net negative for society.

"literally the only people who uphold any conservative principles are liberals" is a huge part of the story of how we got here, too ā because they'd constantly do it *even at the expense of liberal principles*

There canāt be any gun restrictions because we have to protect against federal government tyranny, and if kids get shot we just have to live with it. Also the President can send troops to cities because the federal government can do whatever it wants. These two ideas are consistent and reasonable.

There are a whole lot of people in media who hold opinions that they know will ostracize them from liberal polite society and whose entire output is now explaining to liberals to drop their objections to those opinions, not for them obviously, but because "the voters" demand it.

If you're using AI to write essays, eulogies, a text to your wife, I do think less of you as a person. Ceding your mental and creative abilities to a machine is an embarrassing thing and people should be ashamed to admit doing it in public.

Part of my answer to "how'd we get here?" is an elite, institutional culture deeply opposed to calling bullshit. To do so is uncouth, uncivil, biased. Stated rationales must be taken at face value. There's no such thing as bad faith. Questioning motives is wrong. It's just debate, have some respect.

My basic response to the question of pronouns defaults to, "Why would I speak to someone in a way that hurts them on purpose?" A lot of people - maybe most people - in this country apparently don't feel that way, and I guess I'll just never understand that.
