"But there were some, who resisted..."

Jeff Bezos reveals the simple phrase that saved him countless arguments running Amazon

"Disagree and commit is a really important principle that saves a lot of arguing"

"One of my direct reports would want to do something. I'd think it was a bad idea. We'd go back and forth and I'd often say, you know what, I don't think you're right, but I'm going to gamble with you"

"You're closer to the ground truth than I am. I've known you for 20 years, you have great judgment"

"At least then you've made a decision and I'm agreeing to commit to that decision. I'm not going to be second guessing it, sniping at it, or saying I told you so"

"I'm going to try actively to help make sure it works. That's a really important teammate behavior"

Western civilization rests on three pillars:

1. Greek reason
2. Roman law
3. Christian moral order

All three are being demolished at the same time, and the chaos you feel is the predictable downstream effect of pulling out the load-bearing structures of your own house.

Why am I just seeing this now? This might be the greatest MLB X account interaction. A lot of screenshots but definitely worth your time. Follow along in the thread below because this might be the best thing you’ll see on here all week.

I wonder if these two are married or still together.

One of the big reasons for the current lack of patriotism and pride in our nation’s history is that about 40 years ago our most prominent storytellers in Hollywood just basically stopped telling stories about American history altogether, unless it has something to do with WW2, civil rights, or slavery. I mean they just released a movie about the meteorologist who did the weather report for D-Day. They’ll give WW2 weathermen their own movies before they tell a story from any other era of American history.

The Right has attempted to counteract this a little bit, but “conservative” attempts at American history films and TV shows are invariably hokey and kid friendly, the kind of thing you can watch with your grandmother and your 5 year old, and you’ll all be equally informed and bored by the experience.

We need R-rated adult-oriented American history stories. Daniel Boone should have his own series. It would be gritty and violent and not for children, but it would also be phenomenally entertaining and put an American legend back on the cultural map, so to speak. The fact that Daniel Boone hasn’t been depicted on screen at all since like the 60s is a travesty. Throw a dart at that guy’s Wikipedia page and you’ll land on something that could be its own feature length trilogy.

That’s just one example. How is there not a great R-rated movie or series about Antietam? Or Kit Carson? Or the Panama Canal? How does Theodore Roosevelt not have like 10 movies about different periods of his life?

You could go much farther back to pre-American history. A movie about Cortes’s conquest of Tenochtitlan would be tremendous and horrifying and fascinating, and it would introduce into the public consciousness one of the world’s most incredible stories that most Americans know next to nothing about. And on and on.

The possibilities are literally endless. All of these movies, if they’re executed to even a B+ level, could make hundreds of millions of dollars and transform the culture in a way that a million podcast monologues never could. If the Right actually wants to reclaim the culture, this is the place to start.

The difference is that under capitalism, some poor bastard would get tired of rowing, invent the steam engine, revolutionize the world, and wind up hated for being rich, so then they'd build theatres and libraries and name them for themselves.

Under communism, you just inform on your neighbor, who is assigned to row, and you are rewarded with a table on deck.

Under fascism, everybody pretends to row and the boat doesn't go anywhere.

Foreign-born workers have accounted for more than half of U.S. labor force growth since 2007, according to analyses of BLS data.

@MrLeadslinger @mattmpls33 Especially considering likely the only reason there are any available is because of them enforcing that rule.

@MetamateDaz I’ve said this 1,000 times. The amount of people that think billionaires literally have billions of dollars sitting in their checking account blows my mind.

Thomas Massie has a near perfect score on every single Freedom Index run by every conservative outlet (even the ones that hate him)

Yet people keep criticizing @RepThomasMassie with dumb 💩 like "hE iS bAsIcAllY a dEmOcRaT" except he's better than every other Republican
