Spot on!! 🎯😎😆

I can’t wait for the comments!!

Nicklas Nilsson explains the difference between right-wing and left-wing people in spot-on text on Facebook:

"If a right-wing person is gay, then he is, and he doesn't care what others think.
If a left-winger is gay, then he demands legal changes, protests against everything and everyone, and turns it into a political struggle.

If a right-winger is vegan, then he simply doesn't eat meat.
If a left-winger is vegan, then he wants to ban meat, halt food production, and protest outside farms and chicken farms.

If a right-winger doesn't like guns, then he just doesn't buy any.
If a left-winger doesn't like guns, then he tries to ban them, prevent everyone else from owning one, and hates those who do.

If a right-winger is worried about the climate, then he flies less, drives an electric car if it suits him, and sorts his waste.

If a left-winger is worried about the climate, then he wants to ban fossil fuel cars, air travel, and meat for everyone else, protest outside factories, and demand that the state forces the change.

If a right-winger wants to give his children a good education, then he moves to an area with good schools, or chooses a private school, or gets involved himself.
If a left-winger wants to give his children a good education, then he demands more tax money from everyone, equal results for all, a ban on charter schools, and protests against every inequality.

If a right-winger complains about his job or workplace.. he doesn't. He changes jobs or starts his own business.
If a left-winger complains about his job – then it's the boss, the company, or the colleagues who are at fault. He demands collective agreements, strikes, changes for the whole community, and protests against the company so that it suits him.

If a right-winger is dissatisfied with his housing or rent, then he moves, renovates, or buys something else.
If a left-winger is dissatisfied with his housing or rent, then he demands rent freezes, more subsidies, regulations for everyone, and protests against landlords and politicians.

If a right-winger fails with a business or an investment that goes wrong, then he gets up, dusts himself off, and tries again tomorrow.
If a left-winger runs out of money on the 24th, then he blames the rich for having too much and needing to contribute more, blames the lottery win that didn't come home last week, and mutters that he has such damn bad luck.

If a right-winger sees this – then he sends it to a few friends for a good laugh.
If a left-winger sees this – then he tries to argue against it, get it removed, and delete me from Facebook."

[The Real Mike Rowe @mikeroweworks]

Back in June of 2022, I was out for an early morning ruck when a guy on a bike skidded to a stop beside me and asked if I was Mike Rowe. I nodded and grimaced. I would have said “yes" and smiled, but the 65 lbs on my back had robbed me of my normal good humor. The man spoke with a French accent and bubbled with enthusiasm.

“I have followed your career with great interest,” he said, “and I listen to your podcast every week! I very much appreciate your efforts to inspire the world with stories of grit and determination! I hope to one day do the same! Any advice?”

He told me his name was Cyril. His last name didn’t stick, but it started with a “D” and had lots of letters.
“Well,” I said, “you should probably get famous first. Nobody in this country listens to anyone who isn’t famous.”

Cyril smiled and said, “I am going to pedal across the Pacific Ocean in a kayak, all by myself. I will be known for this!”

Clearly, I had encountered another lunatic on the bike path. There’s no shortage of them in this part of the country, but at least this one was charming.

“Sounds ambitious,” I said. “When do you leave?”

“Next week,” he said. “I will pedal from Monterey, California, to Hilo, Hawaii. It will take me several months and require all of the strength and perseverance I possess. When I return, I would love to share my experience with you and your listeners.”

“Pedal?” I asked. "You mean paddle, right?”

“No, I mean pedal. My kayak has pedals, like my bike. It is why I ride every day. I will pedal across the Pacific Ocean, alone."

“Sounds like fun,” I said. “If you live, I’d love to hear about your adventure.”

Cyril laughed and gave me his number. I watched him ride off, legs pumping furiously, and got on with my ruck, fairly confident our paths would never cross again. But I was wrong. Two years later, on the same bike path, in roughly the same place that we’d met before, a man skidded to a stop beside me.
“Mike! It is me! Cyril! Do you remember?”

He had a beard this time, but there was no mistaking his voice or his enthusiasm.

“Of course,” I said. “You’re the lunatic who was going to pedal across the Pacific Ocean in a kayak all by yourself.”

“I am!” he said. “And I did!”

“Congratulations!” I said.

“And, I lived!”

“I can see that,” I said. "How long did it take you?”
“Ninety-one days and nine hours,” he said. “It was the adventure of my lifetime.”

“That's incredible," I said. "I’d love to hear all about it. Can you come to Santa Monica to record an episode of the podcast?”

“I would love to,” he said, “but not right now. I’m training very hard this month for my next adventure.”
“What now?” I asked.

“I am going to pedal across the Atlantic Ocean in my kayak, all by myself.”

“Sounds ambitious,” I said. “When do you leave?”

“In two months,” he said. “I will pedal from the Canary Islands to Martinique. It will take me several months and require all the strength and perseverance I possess. When I return, I would love to share my experience with you and your listeners.”

“Great,” I said. “If you live, I’ll make sure we get you on this year.”

Cyril laughed and rode off, legs pumping furiously, and a few months later, I googled the crazy Frenchman, and learned that Cyril Derreumaux had become the only human to pedal across both oceans in a kayak, all by himself.

With the possible exception of my mother, I can’t think of a better guest to round out 2025. Cyril is fluent in six languages and a true student of life. He now holds three Guinness World Records and done something no other human has even attempted. And now, he’s out in the world, telling true stories of grit and determination, inspiring people with every incredible sentence, and challenging the species to boldly go into an uncertain future with humor, grit, and perseverance.

I’m not saying @cdxpro isn’t a lunatic. You’ve got to be a little crazy to pedal over the world’s oceans in a kayak all by yourself. I’m just saying he’s a fantastic human being, who I was lucky to meet and honored to introduce. A short clip is attached. Our whole conversation is here. https://t.co/AujgyuBmha

You’re gonna love him.

[AmericanPapaBear™ @AmericaPapaBear]

This is the MOST BASED take I have heard in a long time!

She thinks that people on ANY sort of government assistance shouldn't be allowed to vote.

"How can you vote freely when you are being bought?"

"The left is funny. Workers who don't work. Students who don't study. Educators who don't educate. Politicians who cannot lead so they buy votes instead."

"They create dependence and call it compassion. They create victims and call it justice. They create laziness and call it equality."

"A bunch of dumb people fall for that."

I want to hear your reaction to this one!

A country run by banks will
always be in debt

Healthcare run by Big Pharma
will never cure disease

A state run by war
will never know peace

A nation run by media
will never know the truth

MENACE!? ICYMI American Airlines passenger Ketty J. Dilone LOSES IT on a flight from Charlotte to Vegas screaming DEATH THREATS, hurling RACIST SLURS, and SLAMMING a flight attendant. Will she get 20 YEARS federal time?

Warren Buffetts’s solution to end the US government shut down:

"I could end the deficit in five minutes. You just pass a law that says that any time there’s a deficit of more than three percent of GDP, all sitting members of Congress are ineligible for re-election."

Do you agree with him?

California's $2.2 billion solar farm in the Mojave Desert is shutting down after requiring natural gas to operate.

It turns out that even in one of America's sunniest places, solar needed fossil fuels as backup.

That's why it's called the Green New Scam.

Charlie Kirk with Gad Saad:

Charlie: Why are is it so many Muslims are moving to Western Countries?…

Gad: Three ways Islam will conquer the West:
1) through the womb of our women.
2) we will conquer the west through immigration.
3) by using your freedoms against you.

🚨 1/MUST-WATCH: Former YouTube CEO Susan Wojcicki admits they removed over 1 million COVID videos — while coordinating directly with Biden & Fauci.

Even more disturbing: she doesn’t just defend the censorship, she pathologizes dissent — musing about whether “anti-vaxxers” should be psychoanalyzed for their behavior.

This wasn’t “content moderation.” It was government-directed censorship at mass scale — erasing science, silencing citizens, and rewriting reality.🧵

[D. Manning @SuperDawnne]

Seriously! All those “men/BOYS” need to GROW A PAIR! @Harvard You need to VEHEMENTLY OUTRIGHT CONDEMN what happened to Charlie Kirk!

[Nate Friedman @NateFriedman97]

🚨I asked Harvard kids about a survey that says "32% of Harvard students say using violence to stop someone from speaking on campus is acceptable."

The students' response... "Doesn't surprise me, Harvard is a pretty charged place"

[Eric Daugherty @EricLDaugh]

Wow.

ERIKA KIRK: "[I looked] directly at my husband's murdered body. I saw the wound that ended his life...But there was something else. Even in death, I could see the man that I love. I saw the one, single grey hair on the side of his head, which I never told him about. Now he knows. Sorry baby, I'm telling you now."

"I also saw on his lips the faintest smile. And that told me something important. It revealed to me a great mercy from God in this tragedy. When I saw that, it told me Charlie didn't suffer. Even the doctor told me - it was something so instant."

"One moment Charlie was doing what he loved, arguing and debating...he blinked...and saw his savior in paradise."

😭

[Fox Nation @foxnation]

In an interview filmed just hours before his assassination, Charlie Kirk shared the words that he lived by. Watch 'Charlie Kirk: The Last Interview,' Friday on Fox Nation.

[Libs of TikTok @libsoftiktok]

INSANE

Students at NYU held a vigil for Charlie and leftists came, harassed them, and tried shutting it down

“The message is that they want us to die”

“These people planted a culture of censorship by m*rder. Now that we’re allowed to say what we want to say, the only way they could stop us is by kiIIing us.”

What is @nyuniversity doing about this??

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

Wow

[Nick Watts 🇺🇸 @NickWatts]

Conservatives say that guns are for sport, hunting, and self defense because that’s what they use them for.

Liberals say that guns are for killing people because that’s what they use them for.

Why Did a Private Jet Take Off from a Private Airport 12 Min from the Shooting With its Radar illegally Turned Off 20 Min After the Assassination?…

[Candace Owens @RealCandaceO]

If anybody knows anything about this, please comment below or email [email protected]

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

Yes.

What it comes down to is this:

Do you have more sympathy for those highly likely to commit murder or more for those at risk of being murdered?

If the former, you are a disgusting human being and yet so many on the radical left choose this!

[D. Manning @SuperDawnne]
