The World Cup has turned America into a discovery channel for the rest of the world.
And they are not handling it well.
In the best possible way.
Here is what they are discovering:
Free public restrooms. Europeans pay every time.
Free water at every restaurant. Just appears.
Free refills. Coffee. Sodas. Iced tea. Unlimited.
Free chips and salsa before you even order.
Free warm bread with dinner.
Ice in drinks like civilized people.
Air conditioning everywhere. Not a moral debate. A fact.
Parking lots attached to the actual place you are going.
Drive throughs where the food comes to the car while you sit in it.
Ranch dressing by the gallon.
Tex-Mex that cannot be explained only experienced.
Dental care that actually works.
Buccee’s. There are no words for Buccee’s.
Then they found the grocery stores.
Five of them within one mile.
Each one the size of an aircraft hangar.
Burgers. Steaks. Brisket. Ribs. Pulled pork. Lamb. Veal. Every cut of every animal ever domesticated by human civilization available in one refrigerated aisle at ten in the morning on a Tuesday.
The Germans stood in the meat section for forty five minutes.
In silence.
Processing.
They finally understand why we do not have trains.
We have roads wide enough for the cars we actually drive.
Parking lots the size of small European countries.
Airports in every city worth visiting.
Why would we need trains.
The Germans are taking ranch home by the bottle.
The Dutch found queso and briefly lost the ability to speak.
The Japanese are photographing HEB like it is the Louvre.
The Czechs are weeping in West, Texas.
Welcome to America.
Everything is free, enormous, air conditioned, comes with chips, and has five grocery stores within a mile that will sell you any cut of any animal you have ever imagined.
Write that down. 🦋
🚨BREAKING: Henry Nowak's father speaks out on the murder of his son:
"He told officers he could not breathe NINE TIMES, he said he had been stabbed FOUR TIMES, but the officer replied saying' 'I don't think you have, mate.'"
What a brave man.
Yes, rural Americans suddenly targeted with multiple land grabs that use over a gig of power show up to their town halls exclusively because a Chinese backed PAC told them to! Yes, the poor rural families are the Goliath and the Altman/Zuckerberg PACs with hundreds of millions of dollars and supporters at the highest levels of government are the Davids.
Look, you can debate the ROI of data centers and cloud based generative AI vs. localized edge computing. You can argue that these residents don't get it and are misguided. But the notion that the astroturfing and unnatural behavior is coming from rural residents of all stripes as opposed to the very transhumanists big Tech overlords who screwed us during covid is absolutely retarded. Have you ever spoken to any residents effected?
All of the people suddenly asserting this talking point in unison are three years late to the fight and then have the temerity to suggest they have it all figured out. If you didnt follow the blowback to carbon capture, wind and solar, you have no idea what you are talking about. You might believe this has a better ROI, but again, it's quite transparent and obvious why people are upset.
🚨 Stephen Miller says the scale of welfare fraud is SO MASSIVE that eliminating it alone could balance the ENTIRE federal budget
"The amount that has been fleeced from us is in the HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS of dollars."
"We could balance the federal budget if the only dollars that went out of the treasury went to individuals who were properly, lawfully, correctly eligible to receive them."
This should infuriate EVERY taxpayer.
PEER-REVIEWED PAPER SAYS GENETICALLY ENGINEERING TICKS TO SPREAD MEAT ALLERGIES IS “MORALLY OBLIGATORY”
Western Michigan professors claim that CRISPR-edited ticks should be used to spread alpha-gal syndrome as “moral bioenhancement” to FORCE humans away from eating meat.
This sounds like bioterrorism dressed up as bioethics.
CDC estimates that as many as 450,000 people in the United States may already be affected by alpha-gal syndrome.
Think about what is being proposed here: deliberately developing genetically modified ticks to spread a potentially life-threatening meat allergy that may already affect nearly half a million Americans.
“police arrest man who is bleeding to death because the stabber claimed he was racist”
its literally impossible to satirize the UK anymore. even the most extreme, hamfisted memes are just real things that actually happen now
When I took APUSH in high school we spent 1/2 a week watching this move in class. The accompanied assignment was a 2 page hand written paper on the negative effects of racism and segregation in 1960s America.
Out of curiosity, I did my own reserach into Katherine Johnson (MC of the movie) and found interviews where she described her experience.
When asked if she felt segregation at NASA she said she didn't and that everyone was so mission oriented that nobody really cared about race at all.
The "white only" restrooms at NASA actually weren't marked at all and she was using those bathrooms for her entire tenure there.
The iconic scene of her throwing a temper tantrum about walking for an hour to use the "colored's room" was entirely fake, the rant about using a coffee pot that none of the Whites would touch was entirely fake.
Jim Parson's character, the racist/sexist antagonist was entirely fake.
Kevin Costner's classic progressive, anti-racist, meritocratic boomer character was also fake.
After learning all this, I wrote a paper how the movie portrayed NASA as a deeply racist and destructive place, saved by an uppity black woman screaming and crying about racism. That this portrayl was actually significantly more racist than the reality which was NASA being incredibly professional, where racism was an after thought, and the Black woman actually usurped all racist stereotypes and was renown for her calm professionalism and exceptional work.
I was given a C and was given a 1-on-1 scolding in office hours after class.
🇺🇸💰 Ever wonder why European cities accepted so many refugees?
Today, I'm over my jet lag and processing the documents I scanned this week. Already it's pretty shocking.
The refugee influx into Europe began as a U.S. taxpayer-funded subsidy. The U.S. government literally paid European cities to take them in, using Soros-backed operations like ARC (American Refugee Committee) as the middlemen.
Yes, ARC, co-founded with money from the Soros Humanitarian Fund, was running programs directly for the U.S. government.
It goes even deeper and darker than that. Stay tuned.
The mainstream media is now confirming we are being robbed at grocery stores and Walmart
Product after product they take off the shelves and weigh is always short
They test Walmart shrimp, bring it to the studio and every bag is half a pound short
This has to be an intentionally large scale scam to defraud Americans at the grocery store
One or two items is a mistake. Every item they pull off the shelves being underweight at specific locations is fraud
And the amount products are underweight isn’t a small amount, it’s a huge amount
We are being robbed blind
American kids spend enormous amounts of time online with very few significant restrictions, according to a new @FamStudies research brief published today by Michael Toscano, @lymanstoneky and @grantjbailey

I’m sorry, I know this bums a lot of you out, because you’ve built your personality on being to pro-market, pro-technology guy, but technology is just very clearly making us less happy
