"I got that white girl, got that white girl"

DeCarlos Brown said that moments after he killed Iryna. And the media buried it totally.

@bucknersrevenge @MATHnBASKETBALL You said he’s a good player but players play better without him. So the Celtics will be better without him this year? Or is Paul George actually better in your opinion?

@Kornstalx @SouthernRNchrm @NicHulscher You’re the problem with the FDA or pharmaceutical companies in general. They’re allowed to put any product on the shelf but they don’t have to prove it doesn’t hurt anyone. Same with asbestos, glyphosate, teflon, talcum powder, etc. We’re told it’s safe until years later.

‘Father’ of Canadian Health Care Admits its a Failure

“Four decades later, as the chairman of a government committee reviewing Quebec health care this year, Castonguay concluded that the system is in ‘crisis.’

“‘We thought we could resolve the system’s problems by rationing services or injecting massive amounts of new money into it,’ says Castonguay. 

“But now he prescribes a radical overhaul: ‘We are proposing to give a greater role to the private sector so that people can exercise freedom of choice.’”

This is because the anti-capitalist left is not actually against people being crazy rich. They're against certain types of people being crazy rich.

Artists and athletes make sense to them because they've played music and sports and because their success can be explained by "luck" and "talent". Messi's wealth is not offensive to them because they understand Messi is much better at football than they are.

But when it comes to business, the anti-capitalist leftist has no framework for understanding why Jeff Bezos might be super rich since 99% of them have never ever created a product, business or service that was of value to other people. They've never taken entrepreneurial risk. They've never employed people and felt the burden of responsibility that comes with that. They've never pick up a business and given it a play in the way they've picked up a ball or a guitar.

They *literally* don't understand wealth creation. They think there is a fixed amount of money and the only thing a business does is split it unfairly.

It's why they rage at Elon and other successful business leaders. Because they genuinely don't understand why they're wealthy.

Also, and this is just as important, athletes and artists are disproportionately young, attractive, "diverse", left wing etc. Business leaders are "evil" middle aged white men whose success offends the average anti-capitalist leftist because they don't understand a) what it is they do and b) that Elon Musk has the same talent advantage on them as Messi does, it's just harder to measure.

🚨BREAKING: Outrage in Scandinavia after a Swedish man was beaten to death by a gang of Africans while at a fan zone watching Norway vs Côte d'Ivoire

He was an off-duty policeman and leaves behind a wife & two daughters.

His life mattered.

NYC had a nuclear power plant 36 miles away called Indian Point.

It supplied carbon-free safe power that would mean no one would need to turn up their thermostats.

But it was closed in 2021 by the degrowth Death Cult. Now NYC relies on fossil fuels for 90% of its power 🫠

@ElPibeManolo @QueenTrudeau @Bratt_world @BrandonStraka Harris would be like Biden where he wasn’t running the country. They said it themselves, he’s their cash cow. Their ratings were down under Biden. They not allowed to cover left wing presidents the same way they do for Trump. They needed him back in the White House for ratings.
