@MaryBowdenMD @denisrancourt @AllisonInquiry Funding cuts? No. It was the shots.

Good morning, X!

If you can’t laugh along with this, your funny bone needs medical attention. 🤣🤣

[Megan @ClipperCtRebel]

Controversy aside, it WAS an incredible catch!

[The Winged Helmet @TWH_Chris]

For nearly three hours, 110,000 people watched what looked like one of the worst losses in program history. An unimaginably horrible start to the Kyle Whittingham era. Then, with one second left, JJ Buchanan comes down with the ball in the end zone and Michigan goes from 0-1 to 1-0 in an instant.

Criticize the performance. It deserves every bit of it. But criticizing fans and players for going from misery to absolute euphoria in a matter of seconds?

It wasn’t about celebrating a win over Western Michigan. It was about celebrating an unbelievable moment you’ll probably remember for the rest of your life if you were in that building (I know I will).

That instant swing from misery to pure joy is one of the things that makes sports so damn great.

Ten years ago a 12-year-old from Dnipro sat down and played like he’d already lived a few lives behind the kit. Most people only ever saw the clips. This is the full solo. 🥁

@meyersmedia_ I actually really appreciate this! I love Michigan, and come from a long line of Wolverines. Last night it did really look like Western was cheated out of a rightful win. Thanks for this explanation!

[Megan @ClipperCtRebel]

This actually makes a lot of sense and helps clarify the confusion at the end of the game!

[Meyers Football Films @meyersmedia_]

Noticed this live on the NBC clock...It was out of sync

The officials said to put 9 seconds on the clock. Not 8 1/3. The NBC clock missed 2/3 of a second which caused the confusion.

That’s a great summary. Don’t forget the Pilgrims Society followed closely afterwards to secure the US to the British and part of their empire again as part of the gradualism approach.

[Krzysztof Szczawinski 🇵🇱 @Kristof_Poland]

I’ll be honest with you: until recently I didn’t know much about the Fabian Society. Maybe it’s because the English know how to be smooth – so correct me if I am getting something wrong.

The Fabian Society was founded in London in 1884. Named after Quintus Fabius Maximus – the Roman general famous for defeating Hannibal not through direct confrontation but through patience, attrition, and the slow wearing down of the enemy. The name was chosen deliberately. It was the strategy.

Their emblem was a wolf in sheep’s clothing. They chose this themselves. It is worth sitting with that for a moment: an organization that selected, as its own symbol, the image of predatory intent disguised as harmless appearance – deception as the founding principle, the operational method, the thing they were most proud of. Not imposed by critics. Self-selected. They were proud of it.

The strategy was simple and devastating: do not storm the institutions. Infiltrate them. Permeate them — their word — gradually, patiently, over generations, placing Fabian-trained people in positions of influence in government, academia, media, and the civil service, until the institutions produce Fabian outcomes without anyone having to announce a revolution. The revolution would happen – but slowly, invisibly, bureaucratically, democratically. By the time anyone noticed, the institutions would already have changed.

They founded the London School of Economics in 1895 – the institution that trained generations of politicians, civil servants, economists, and journalists across the entire Commonwealth and beyond. They were instrumental in creating the Labour Party in 1900. They shaped the BBC. They designed the British welfare state. George Bernard Shaw, H.G. Wells, Tony Blair, Gordon Brown, Keir Starmer – the list of Fabians who shaped British and global politics is not a footnote. It is the history of the twentieth century’s left, stated plainly. Starmer is not an accident or an evolution of Labour. He is the current expression of a project that has been running for a hundred and forty years – patient, institutional, and entirely consistent with the original strategy.

The Fabian Society is the Gramsci long march through the institutions – but English, so better dressed and better funded, and fifty years earlier. Gramsci theorized what the Fabians had already been doing. The Fabians were the practitioners. The Frankfurt School provided the philosophy. The Fabian Society provided the operational model. And the French Theory provided the cultural packaging. Three projects, different origins, identical destination: the dismantling of Western civilization’s foundations through the patient occupation of its institutions.

What makes the Fabian model more dangerous than revolutionary socialism is precisely its smoothness. Revolution is visible. You can point at the barricades. The Fabian approach produces no barricades – only gradually changing curricula, subtly shifting editorial lines, incrementally revised civil service guidelines, and a succession of reasonable-sounding reforms that individually seem modest and collectively amount to the transformation of everything. The wolf in sheep’s clothing is not just a predator in disguise – it is a predator that has learned to speak the sheep’s language, adopt the sheep’s manners, express concern for the sheep’s welfare, and gradually rewrite the rules of the flock from the inside. By the time you notice, the wolf has been in the room for decades. It was wearing the sheep’s clothing so long that some people forgot it wasn’t a sheep. The deception was not incidental. It was the method.

The wolf in sheep’s clothing is obłuda (👇🏻) with a long-term strategy. Zakłamanie with a hundred-year plan. The Systemic Lie with a think tank and an endowment.

They were patient. They were deliberate. They were effective.

And the civilization that produced Magna Carta, the Bill of Rights, and Churchill barely noticed until it was very late.

I love @UMichFootball but integrity matters more than a (very) shady W.

[Megan @ClipperCtRebel]

@FJBForever1776B @BradGalli Wolverine fan from a line of Wolverines and I agree with you. WMU absolutely won that game. Shame on the refs.

[Megan @ClipperCtRebel]

@the5blairs @OU_Football @UMichFootball @WMU_Football @oregonfootball 🤦‍♀️

[Megan @ClipperCtRebel]

@ToddHagopian Huge Wolverine family here, but that did not feel like a win. 😬 Western played one hell of a good game and we did not! I will agree that last pass and catch both were amazing! 💛💙

[Megan @ClipperCtRebel]

Okay, I go Blue all day long, but that @UMichFootball win does not feel right. 😬 Crazy end-zone catch yes, but time left on the clock? No.

[Megan @ClipperCtRebel]

@catturd2 Men haven't been making themselves look too fantastic lately, either.
