I lived in Bolivia for two years. One of the cities I lived in was Cobija. One night, in Cobija, my friend and I were walking home when a Bolivian police officer got into an accident with a man that was on a motorcycle.

I ran over to try to help the man who was on the motorcycle, but I’ll never forget the officer yelling at the man about how the accident was his fault and then yelling at me for intervening.

In Bolivia, as in most third world countries, people don’t rush to help when this stuff happens. They become bystanders and observers, refusing to intervene or provide assistance. Some of the people around that night joined in on yelling at me as I called out for people to get an ambulance. One eventually made it because my friend had a phone and made the call, but it was too late.

That night, a stranger bled out and died in my arms—a foreigner—as his fellow countrymen yelled at him and watched him die.

People in the United States and across the West don’t understand the cultures and people that are being imported into our countries. The third world isn’t civilized, it’s not some wondrous place with people who have unlimited potential or hold similar worldviews to us. The third world is a dog-eat-dog world. People are literally scraping by and trying to survive. It wires people differently than the way we are wired.

As the West fails to deport the third world, it will become the third world. And mass deportations truly are the only peaceful answer if we want to stop the attempted beheadings, the rapes, the vandalism, the fraud, the homelessness, etc.

Some might find this sentiment cruel, but it’s not. What’s cruel is allowing the greatest civilization in the world, which your children and grandchildren should inherit, fall into an unrecognizable state of being.

The idea this situation would NOT have been better with a gun is insane.

There's an extreme level of danger in having to approach someone with a melee weapon when they also have a melee weapon, no matter how much additional "reach" you have.

A Glock 19 has a pretty long fucking reach.

Don't break your nice spade shovel; you're gonna need that in the next part anyway.

Get a gun and shoot more criminals.

Shoot them with Fenix Ammunition.

Fuel the Militia Industrial Complex.

[Rupert Lowe MP @RupertLowe10]

If a migrant comes to our country and attempts to saw a man's head off in the street, a Restore Britain Government will not deport.

With the British people's approval, that savage will be put to death.

But that is not enough - these atrocities will keep happening. The barbarians are already inside the gates.

Immigration will end from countries that are proven to supply us with these monsters.

Third world migrants who hate our way of life will be removed from our country. Restore Britain will deport millions.

I have had enough. The British people have had enough.

We do not have to live like this - there is another way.

Death penalty, mass deportations, end mass immigration.

That is what Restore Britain will do.

.@ScottNolan’s biggest lesson from joining SpaceX when it was just 30 people was the importance of trading cost for time:

“On day 1 I read the employee handbook. At the top of page one was just a single line in bold.”

“It said: This is not a science experiment.”

“We were not trying to do any crazy new technology, it was about getting rockets to be much cheaper.”

@JTLonsdale: “One of the famous @elonmusk quotes I’ve heard recently is, ‘The cost of time is greater than the cost of cost.’”

“Back then though, the cost of cost was pretty high right because you didn’t have much money?”

Scott: “It was always a cost trade with time.”

This is a remarkable tweet from the official State Department account. They deserve huge credit. To speak this plainly about what is happening in the UK would have been unthinkable just a few years ago.

But it is actually even worse than that because the UK doesn’t just have what people call two-tier policing, as shown in that horrific video, it also has a two-tier legal system with different carve outs for different supposedly vulnerable groups.

Knives are hugely restricted, except Sikhs are totally allowed to carry them. Motorcycle helmets are mandatory, except Sikhs are exempt. Schools ban headgear, except Sikh students are allowed to wear it. These are just facts on the ground.

[Department of State @StateDept]

Ideological conditioning and two-tiered policing are glaring symptoms of civilizational decline. They must be rejected across the West.

The United States sends our condolences to the family of Henry Nowak and the people of the United Kingdom at this troubling time.

There are 18 year olds taking out $170,000 debt to get a business degree from Ohio State and all of the adults involved should be shot from a cannon into the sun.

[ErikDPrince @realErikDPrince]

Go big or go home. What a stud. These are the shoulders of giants we stand upon. He could have whined and claimed he was "disenfranchised" but no he signs the Declaration of Independence with his home address. The equivalent of Cortes burning his ships, the wealthiest man in America personally declares war against the Crown for Liberty. These are men worth honoring and remembering.

[Congressman Brandon Gill @RepBrandonGill]

81% on welfare. The other 19% own the companies billing Medicaid.

Foreigners are stealing Americans’ birthright.

This has to end. Our first hearing on Ohio’s Medicaid fraud scandal is tomorrow.

The best part about this rotation from software into industrialization

Is that venture capital dollars and companies will finally be transforming the physical world

The 2010s deployed billions of dollars, but if you stepped out on the street, the world looked the exact same...

[Nigel Farage MP @Nigel_Farage]

The fear of being called racist was greater than dealing with Henry Nowak’s murder.

We should respond to this with pure cold rage.

Britain’s historic way of life is being thrown away.

[CBS News @CBSNews]

Seven properties, a Mercedes G-Wagon, sneakers worn by Kobe Bryant and a Mickey Mantle rookie card worth $1.5 million. All of these things were bought with taxpayer money.

Paul Randall pleaded guilty in one of the largest Medicaid fraud schemes in the California history – diverting more than $270 million in tax dollars.

The thing nobody tells you about exponential change is that it feels like nothing is happening right up until the moment everything happens at once.

[Tim Worstall @worstall]

Half the species gets free telecoms from Zucks. That's a reduction in telecoms inequality. Machine knitting made stockings for the factory girl, not just a queen. A reduction in stockings inequality. Technological change *reduces* inequality.

The city has had two consecutive LGBTQ police chiefs.
The city just had a black mayor.
The county executive is a woman. The President of county council is a woman.
Who, exactly, isn’t being given the opportunity to live, work and thrive in Allegheny County?
Who? Enlighten me.

Apparently Europe has special one way insulation and we Americans are just too stupid and fat to understand this incredible technology. I shall now waddle to Costco in shame and buy another $200 air conditioner

[Tweet is the Work 🌷 @NoblestCalling]

Fahrenheit is superior because it's basically telling you what % hot it is

[Traveler @MilesTrav]

Knowing the Brits, they'll probably eventually cave and get air conditioning. But it will probably be some totally nonsensical centralized system, where you get air piped into your house by the N.A.S., National Air Service.

It will be considered genius and efficient at first, and then go broke in 10 years. They will also base their entire identity off of telling Americans they pay for AC.
