TRUTH NUKE: Bill Maher: “I want to first of all say something about Western civilization. Kids, you don’t know what the f*ck it is. No, really! They think Western means white—and white means bad. Kids, first of all, everything bad that white people did, people of color did it, too. The Japanese before World War II and during World War II. And Genghis Khan, and I could go on and on.”
“The left is very down on America, very down on the West. And it’s ironic because the West has also given us everything that makes your life good here. Don’t ask Billie Eilish or Chappell Roan about what the Western values are, because they’ll just say it’s about oppression.”
“But it’s not about oppression. It’s about rule of law. It’s about respect for minorities. It’s about democracy. It’s about scientific inquiry. These are all good things that came from the Western world. I wish that schools would teach that again.”
🚨 NOW: Fed-up Mexicans are STORMING the National Palace after calling out President Sheinbaum as the “NARCO-PRESIDENT” who is bought off by the cartels.
They’re trying to take down the wall.
This is INSANE.

It’s worse than that. Most of the time you’re getting someone’s REACTION to a shred of truth, or even a step removed from that. It’s like some fucked up game of telephone that turns the mentally unwell into what they think are ‘morally justified’ murderers.
It’s social media.
You’re fed 10 second clips of things you either love or hate. It forces you to form deep emotional opinions on information that has been compressed, redacted, & sliced into a shred of what can barely be passed off as truth.
In the last few years we've seen:
- The plot to kidnap Gretchen Whitmer
- The Storming of the Capitol and pipe bombs left at the RNC and DNC
- The break-in to kidnap Nancy Pelosi and the brutal on Paul Pelosi
- Multiple assassination attempts against Trump
- The assassination of Minnesota House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband and the shooting of on State Senator John Hoffman and his wife
- Luigi Mangione's assassination of Brian Thompson
- The assassination of Charlie Kirk
Political violence is contagious. It is spreading. It is not confined to one side or belief system. It should terrify us all.
The foundation of a free society is the ability to participate in it without fear of violence. Political violence is always an attack against us all. You have to be so blind not to see that.
@kirawontmiss Lady got killed by one of these people near my house a couple months ago. I say attempted murder charge per car they pass in the same lane- we’d change this behavior real quick
@floridanow1@kirawontmiss Crashes his car texting & driving, friend has lacerations and glass in his face, doesn’t apologize to his friend, and hands him a phone to record content while his face is leaking blood.
