This wouldn’t have happened if there was a good guy with a gun around.

Not sure, I understand. Science is the study of natural phenomena, no? Isn’t an economy a natural phenomena worthy of study? economies are most certainly emergent properties of human culture, but that does not make them unreal and New Age bullshit.  money might be a magical construct, but I’ll bet you used it to eat today.

Who says consent is manufactured? It seems to perpetuate itself. 

When someone uses the Bible to prove a point...they don’t.

So glad we have Bill Maher to let us know about the politics of GenZ. He’s so in touch with the youth of America isn’t he? I guess it’s because he’s in his 60s, has no children, and barely sets foot on a college campus unless they’re paying him to speak. This uniquely qualifies him to know what’s going on with campus politics.

...and really paranoid. Like, delusional paranoid. Like, too much Fox channel paranoid. Like, Pavlovian paranoid.

I don’t think Biden is “happy” about his role in the situation nor do I think he’s “a total fucking sleaze”. Put aside Biden the person for a second, and recognize he is --the American president--. His actions as the American president are consistent with his predecessors.  The “sleaze” you’re looking for lies in American culture and its view of itself in the world, not in the individual that happens to be president.

Is this the latest centerfold for “Evangelical Beefcake”?

I’m gonna go out on a limb here. I suspect the Democrats will continue to manufacture consent.

Someday I will live in a religion blind society. A place where I will be assessed by the content of my character, not by the beliefs that may or may not be foundational to my character.

Given that they need the little people to clean up after them, not likely.

Sometimes, when I’ve had my glaucoma medication, I consider the weirdness of a thousand humans sitting in proper rows and efficient waiting lines cradled and crammed by the relative security of science.

I used to worry about artificial intelligence destroying civilization but I’m not worried anymore since we can buy our way out of it with bitcoin. Whew! 😰

Children dying due to a banner or a flag is criminal. The trigger pullers need to decide how much longer they want to shame themselves.
