@politicalmath@pegobry_en Gone With the Wind. Proto-feminist and woke. All the white male characters are flawed including Ashley Wilkes while the female and black characters are strong and wise.
@KonstantinKisin@GarethCliff Attitude, shmattiitude. The country is losing because it is governed by people who it hate it & it’s people and want to to destroy it. Managerial blather about attitude and risk taking is just pablum.
@SteveDeaceShow Huge Tucker fan but certainly appears to me he's converted or in process of. Like Charles 3, what would you be doing differently if you had in fact converted?
Slow rolling public acknowledgement to keep up appearance until safe to come out?
Like Stiller, Axelrod, the gentry of Martha's Vineyard, Chait and Kristof want others to pay the cost, bear the burden, do the work, while they post, write, sit in the front row and wave goodbye to the blessed migrants.
Can't work up enough effort to actually help anyone but can certainly feed their egos.
Truly disgusting and soulless people. Rest assured they have their rewards.
So I just walked by the Art Institute of Chicago where an elderly man, probably homeless, was sprawled unconscious, on the museum's front stone steps in the midst of a heat emergency.
I asked a museum security guard about it and she said she had woken him 3 times and suggested he move into the shade and he refused each time.
I called 911 and the operator said, "Well, is he ASKING for help?"
When I said no, she said, "Well I'm not going to send anyone."
So the man remained, passed out in the blazing noon sun.
I guess that's how the City of Chicago deals with such situations.
Perhaps I should have tried to wake him to try and persuade him to move into the shade but I'm embarrassed to say I didn't. I moved on, like many others who simply ignored him.
I hope we're not all complicit in assisting an unintended suicide.
@ChicagosMayor; @Chicago_Police; @artinstitutechi.
@ambermarieduke@redsteeze Best part is that Axelrod didn’t actually do anything to help the man but had time to ask others to put effort in and post about it.
Quintessential Democrat move.
@MZHemingway ACB might feel morally justified but I have a hunch her children and grandchildren might not appreciate the America she has bequeathed them.
Kristof is the caricature of the minor noble lord buying indulgences to live guilt free in the manor house or the Soviet commissar who thinks he will always get the dacha on the Black Sea. He does nothing to actually help the less fortunate, but his ego and vanity are well fed and never in need.
@EdAsante77 One increases the power of certain people, the other doesn't. Even though AC would save more lives and improve the entire commonweal exponentially more than a hundred Fauci's, it doesn't matter. Simple calculus for those in power.
@MarkSteynOnline "Simon Schama has been knighted; Louise Arbour is now Governor General; Nigel Farage is the supposed PM-in-waiting;" maybe true but the remnant will say, like Enoch and Pat, Mark was right.
@GavinNewsom Yet you, your family and cronies aren't struggling. How and why is that?
Could it be that you're a degenerate parasitical hypocrite?
Shame on you.
As a new Mainer, I can say David might be right. Maine Democrats are batshit and believe there are no consequences to how they vote. Between Portland and rich coastals who can inoculate themselves, Platner could win. Collins needs to hope there are enough silent voters who realize Maine is deteriorating fast and have some fear about its future.
@Richard75432@IAPolls2022 Had absolutely nothing to do with Clinton and everything to do with Gingrich revolution.
Clinton was prevented from doing what he wanted by Gingrich. It was Newt / Dick Morris presidency.
