Cicero

Anti-democratic. “O tempora! O mores!”

[Cicero @ciceromt63]

@TheRedStripesSG He was able to survive as long as he did bc he struck a ton of guys out and had a low WHIP. Solo shots don’t kill you. But now he’s giving up more HRs than ever with a 1.4 WHIP. That’s going to get you killed most nights.

[Cicero @ciceromt63]

@TheRedStripesSG He was lucky to only give up 3 tonight with the 4 BBs. That’s just luck. Nola is a complete historical outlier. The average HR/FB ratio is roughly 9.5%. Like 95% of pitchers are usually between 8-12%. Nola for his career is at 14.3%. He only has 1 season in single digits

[Cicero @ciceromt63]

Ben Shapiro has far more in common with Democrats than any of the populist right. The only thing he wants to conserve is the post-WWII liberal order

[Ben Shapiro @benshapiro]

I tuned into Joe Rogan yesterday and heard Bernie Sanders' economics, Barack Obama's foreign policy, and Ro Khanna's conspiracy theories.

And then I realized JD Vance was talking.

I want a candidate in 2028 who doesn't mirror the Democrats -- and who can win.

Mr. VP, this is not the way.

Insofar as Gen Z is more “risk averse” than previous generations, it’s mostly a rational response to existing conditions. Margins are much thinner now, one mistake or bad decision can easily ruin your life.

[Kaiser von Lohengramm @KaiserLoengramm]

This is the future of the Democrat Party. This is where all their momentum is, all their youth, whatever vitality they have. It's all in this mass of foreigners who they've championed and invited in or in the most freakish leftists imaginable. That's who will take over and replace them entirely.

I believe that the overall strategy they had was to invite in masses to be voters for their establishment, and to side with and support these discontented masses in order to give them a base and eventually by sheer numbers give them an unbeatable voting block. I don't think they expected for them to organize themselves and seek to supplant their establishment, which in turn has nothing in the wings to back it up and prop it up.

In turn, their rise, their continued display where they very, very openly seek to destroy and remake America entirely for them, gives ample opportunity for young men dissatisfied with the Establishment GOP to prove their own worth and value in combating this, and can be used to reshape them into something which in turn is truly capable of actually defeating these people via denaturalization and deportation and truly cracking down on the Left. The opportunity is right there, the doors are open, seize it.

[Real Political Data @RealPData]

Shareholder primacy has been one of the biggest disasters for humanity, and I think the last year or two have really begun to wake people up that something is fundamentally wrong with the current structure of the system.

[Cicero @ciceromt63]

@GPhilly120 Undoubtedly, and keeping the team’s usual font for the numbers but using the replica jersey script for the player name looks cheap. Still would rather these than the usual slop they release for the HRD/ASG, though

[Cicero @ciceromt63]

Yeah, sure, these guys definitely would’ve supported the importation of infinity jeets

[Cecil @VoteBloomberg28]

@UBERSOY1 Friendly remonder that Thomas Jefferson and the founding fathers supported Hinduism and would have loved Indian immigration to America.

[Cicero @ciceromt63]

The Founding Fathers, as a whole, were not liberals. Even Jefferson couched a lot of his early arguments in appeals to the “ancient rights of Englishmen”. Other than Paine, none of the well-known Founders were radically liberal

[Cicero @ciceromt63]

There is a shocking number of so-called RW intellectuals and influencers that have a worse grasp on our history than some literal Marxists I know

My x8 great-grandfather loaned a wagon to the Continental Army in 1779 and thirty years later he was still writing angry letters to the government demanding reimbursement

[Prowler @derzum_]

Lothrop Stoddard warns about the alien spirit that tries to deconstruct America: ‘They describe America not as a nation, but as an area inhabited by many people. They slander the colonists, portray the pioneers as destroyers and thieves, only to envision a 'pluralistic America'.’

[Nick Kayal @NickKayal]

The Phillies playing on the road on the 4th of July on Americas 250th is a major scheduling error by MLB.

[Fugitive Caesar @ThomBrady5]

Reminder that Charlie Kirk laid out the solution for young Americans more than a year ago, and all of the fake friends who pretend to respect his memory are completely ignoring the plan he laid out to revitalize America.

[Cicero @ciceromt63]

@captive_dreamer @anselm_posting I’m not against data centers generally, but in my area, they’ve been proposing small ones in *residential neighborhoods*. Almost all of the proposals have been for the most inconvenient locations possible, like the proposals were intended to make people hate them

[Josh Barzon @JoshuaBarzon]

The most Americamaxxing movie scene that was ever filmed. No contest.

[Cicero @ciceromt63]

Cleanup Alec Bohm forever preserved for posterity

[Slim @TRC_Slim]

Imagine opening a time capsule in 2276.

You see Abraham Lincoln.

The Declaration of Independence.

Historic artifacts from every state.

Then…

Trea Turner.
Kyle Schwarber.
Bryce Harper.

That’s awesome.

[cinesthetic. @TheCinesthetic]

The Fourth of July game in THE SANDLOT (1993) is pure movie magic.

Kids playing baseball beneath a sky full of fireworks. One of the most iconic summer scenes ever put on film.

[the kev @runawaycyborg]

I'm a little too hard headed and retarded to just give up and die.
