My take on RDJ playing Doctor Doom. He's a clone of Tony Stark created by Mister Sinister as a way of making Sinister the big bad of the Mutants Era in the MCU.

When cholesterol was demonised, Pfizer sold the statin, and it became the best-selling drug in the history of medicine.
When fat was demonised, Roche sold a pill that stops you absorbing it, and the side effect was printed on the box in a way nobody forgets.
When salt was demonised, the blood pressure tablet went on repeat prescription for a third of the over-50s.
When the sun was demonised, the chemist sold vitamin D in a bottle, for the hormone your skin had been making for free.
When liver was demonised, the chemist sold retinol, iron, copper and B12 in four separate bottles.
When eggs were demonised, the chemist sold choline, and nobody in the queue knew what it was for.
When red meat was demonised, the gym sold creatine and the chemist sold iron.
When butter was demonised, the chemist sold vitamin K2 for the arteries, which is what the butter had been doing.
When hunger was demonised, the pharmacist sold an injection to stop you feeling it, at £200 a month, for life.
Every nutrient the animal carried was declared dangerous, removed, and sold back as a molecule by a company that could patent the molecule and could not patent the cow.
The food did a dozen jobs in one bite. The pharmacy sells each job separately, with a repeat prescription and a side effect.
The animal never had a sales rep. That is the only thing it was ever missing.
I hope people have caught on by now. However, just in case, let me try to help:
In 2010 it was Sandra Fluke
In 2012 it was Romney's "binders of women"
In 2014 it was the 'Me Too" movement
In 2016 it was "Grab them by the pussy" (Trump)
In 2018 it was E Jean Carroll (Trump)
In 2020 it was Amy Dorris (Trump)
In 2022 it was Matt Gaetz, Hershel Walker
In 2024 it was Jeffrey Epstein et al
In 2026 it is "Cornell 7"
Each of these are election years. In each election year professional Democrats deploy the same process to generate support from "suburban women voters", also known as AWFLS.
These are women voters typically from middle to upper-middle-class backgrounds, who are perceived as politically liberal or left-leaning, often vocal about social justice issues and engaged in activism or virtue signaling. Their gender identity defines them.
In order to generate support, or activate this specific voter base, women's issues and/or sexual misconduct is utilized as a trigger mechanism. Once the election is over, the emphasis and narrative disappears...... until the next election cycle. Wash - Rinse - Repeat.
If you cannot see the pattern by now, you are politically oblivious. However, once you see it you can never unsee it. Hope that helps.
The plan is to have it both ways:
Insist on the right to indulge in degrading behavior that inevitably ends up making people crazy and then when things predictably go wrong claiming ‘no one could have wanted’ to engage in such behavior without semi-coercion by Bad People.
I don't think people quite understand the psychology of why this woman went from saying everything was consensual to saying it was rape.
For her, giving sex to all those men is an enormous risk to her health (sti's, pregnancy) and her reputation (she doesn't want to be the subject of gossip) in order to do something for them. This is why you see her focus so hard on making sure the men don't tell anyone. In her head, if she is going to take all that risk for those men and give them her body, she expects them to protect her reputation by keeping quiet and the reward her by making sure she gets to be "one of the guys" - a sort of friend of the frat who gets special privileges. After the night of sex when the men told others what happened and then uninvited her from their party, she felt like they did not hold up their end of the implicit bargain. in her head, she played the role of the cool girl for them, and then they threw her away. She went from feeling like "the cool chick," to feeling like a dupe who got used and tossed aside.
She sees her consent as contingent on their silence and a place in their group; "I never would have agreed to do those things had I known you would destroy my reputation, and kick me out of the group." In her head, since consent was contingent on being give a place in their group and their social protection, when they broke their end of the agreement her consent was (in her mind) contingent upon, her consent no longer holds.
That is the dynamic you are seeing play out here. I am not defending the behavior of anyone here, I am only explaining the mindset.

Once I came to know this story, I could no longer sit quietly by.
I hope that you will see this and be moved, as I was.
This is an excellent summary of the perverse evil done by the Biden DOJ and SDNY in the distorted name of “justice.”

🎙️ The Praxeology of Privacy: Cypherpunks Rebuilding the Internet
Ep. 165 with Max Hillebrand
Max Hillebrand is a cypherpunk, crypto anarchist, and author of the new book “The Praxeology of Privacy”, a 587-page work bringing Austrian economics and cypherpunk engineering together. He is a contributor to White Noise, a decentralized encrypted messaging app built on Nostr and the Marmot protocol. In this episode, we dig into his new book, the gap between Austrian economics and the cypherpunk movement, state intervention, CBDC, we explore various freedom tech tools, and Max explains his optimism about a peaceful, tech-driven path to freedom.
