MAGA is betting everything on a hopeless quest to make America into paradise (it's already very close to optimal, given the ugly realities of mortal life), at the cost of actual Paradise.

Does he realize the water will all run out when he tries to stand it on end?

Trump is currently showing off a poster titled "Our Pool is Bigger than Skyscrapers" in the Oval Office

@Spruce_Strider @ElizabethKantor @shagbark_hick New level of philistine unlocked: guy considers writers (everyone from Stephen King to JK Rowling to Jane Austen to Shakespeare to Moses, I guess???) to be the same as people sucking cocks on the sidewalk. Weird fetish for public display of dipshittery.

@nealjclark1 *bored*

@nealjclark1 E.g., the movie Her was a pretty entertaining early take on AI and human relationships, but what we're living through is actually much weirder and more dramatic than the fantastical "AI becomes super intelligent and bird with us etc" pabulum.

@nealjclark1 (he really means place or setting, but that's another problem)

[Edward Sofel @EdwardJSofel]

@nealjclark1 I think bro is confused: he thinks you're saying good art must be about phone culture. That's why he obsessing about the irrelevant distinction between story and plot.* The point is not that there is no good art; it's that the culture can no longer see itself.

[Edward Sofel @EdwardJSofel]

@NoGlasses420 @nealjclark1 @Bfish94 Either art will take note of the state of its culture and portray it in a way that clarifies, as a mirror, its identity to itself, or the culture begins to dies. It can't live w/o understanding itself. That's not EXCLUSIVELY done through chronicling the present, but must be part.

Denmark was basically America's best (#1) ally over the past few decades--in Afghanistan, in Iraq, in countless policy and geopolitical matters. When you elect people are are both extremely dumb and extremely immoral, they neither know nor care about such relationships.

[Preben Laustsen @Kingaalborg74]

@Acyn @BLABLABLACCR The disrespect from America to Greenland and Denmark. As a Dane you think this is an evil dream or a joke. How has America turned into this evil Mordor country with orks politicians. I simply can’t belive what I hear. He is pissing on dead Danish soldiers😡😱

[Edward Sofel @EdwardJSofel]

@PepGuardiolan @Acyn Collective guilt is precisely the sort of nonsense that enables people to justify those wars. If you want to castigate, set a better example. As it is, you sound like a MAGA talking about Muslims or immigrants.

@CathyYoung63 Bill Gates is a very capable and competitive guy. No way this wasn't going to end with all of us being sterile. Excellent match, Bill, very well played, but we hope to get another shot (no pun intended haha) with you again in the mind-control final!

@ZLamb97 @RepOgles He's not "God's servant to punish evil." He's an elected representative of a free people who has a practical job of making the country run better. Maybe stop trying to make the United States Congress into a sex and gender police and get them to focus on that real job.

I stood at this pool, at both monuments and saw both reflections…
He’s a God damn idiot, as are the fools that support him. The “Reflection Pool” wasn’t designed by American architect Henry Bacon a hundred years ago to look like a swimming pool. It’s designed to have a darkened characteristics that has reflective qualities to reflect the monuments.
That way, the Washington Monument is reflective to you when at the Lincoln Memorial, and when at the Washington Monument, the Lincoln Memorial is reflective to you.
It’s designed to enhance the grandeur of monuments, create an illusion of reflection, and inclusion of expansive space of unity.
He’s a tacky vulgar person that vulgarizes everything he touches. America isn’t becoming great, it’s becoming vulgar.

@patmccormick @JamesTate121 I mute thee!

[Edward Sofel @EdwardJSofel]

The president is, and always has been, a dunce. He has only bluster, lies, and thievery. If you believed any of these ridiculous claims he has made, or any of his "trust the plan" horseshit, you, too, are a dunce. Turn your finances over to your spouse or get a conservatorship.

[Ron Filipkowski @RonFilipkowski]

Trump during the campaign on Feb 2, 2023 to Fox:

“I will end that war in 24 hours. It won’t even be hard. You have to get them both in a room. And there are things you can say to them, which I won’t reveal now, which will guarantee that this war will end immediately.”

[Edward Sofel @EdwardJSofel]

Every policy issue pales in importance next to the toxic cultural sea change where politicians thinks their job is to use media and marketing and lies to tease as much hatred and bitterness and paranoia out of the voters as possible and get them to focus it on their neighbors.

[Edward Sofel @EdwardJSofel]

@RER1962 @LindseyGrahamSC You're why the mute button exists. Pure, uncut dunce. Buy the cap and you're a perfect specimen.

[Edward Sofel @EdwardJSofel]

@LindseyGrahamSC You'd pay off Benedict Arnold. You'd volunteer to be cucked by King George. You're everything American patriots despised.
