If they gonna have this whack job on the news they gotta start swipe cutting away in these moments. You can’t just let him yack and think you got em with a one liner. He voiced his full sound bit. He got you @jaketapper. You failed this encounter
Stephen Miller goes on a rant defending Trump's imperialist aggression against Venezuela: "We’re a superpower… we are going to conduct ourselves as a superpower."
Jake Tapper: "I don't even know what you're talking about right now."
“We generated millions in pure profit by making the standard service worse” is literally the slogan of the last 2 decades for every commodity in the country.
@lionsdaylight Tbh if this happened to any team except the team playing puka nacua the day after he blasphemed all NFL refs it would be called incomplete
Tonight it finally clicked for me.
Neo asks her the classic question:
“If you already know what I’m going to do… do I really have a choice?”
And she hits him with the line:
“You’ve already made the choice. You’re just here to understand why.”
For years I thought this meant “there’s no free will.” But that’s not it.
Here’s the real insight:
Free will doesn’t exist in the moment.
It exists in the identity that leads to the moment.
The actions you take right now?
They’re mostly automatic - shaped by your conditioning, experiences, fears, habits, and past.
But the person you’re becoming?
That’s where your freedom actually lives.
You don’t choose the moment.
You choose the man who will meet the moment.
Or put in another way:
Determinism writes the past.
Identity writes the future.
Because when your life isn’t where you want it to be, the answer isn’t “make better choices.” The answer is: become the version of yourself who makes better choices automatically.
That’s the real red pill.
