Here is a perfect example of what happens to institutions like the State Dept. when people with antisocial traits get power. They break down the restraints on the system to allow more people like them to rise.

In this case, State is PAYING RACIST AFRIKANERS to move to America. Their “refugee status” is defined by their hatred of Black people in South Africa—they all say they’re escaping a fictitious “white genocide” pushed by Elon Musk.

At the same time, DHS is boasting about deporting Black people who did nothing wrong back to a deadly environment, all because of a psyop that Haitians were eating pets.

The government is literally executing what neo-Nazis accused “the left” of doing for years—great replacement of white people—but in reverse.

The US government has been overtaken by a small minority of people who have cruelty in the core of their psyches. They have systematically removed empathy, equality and justice from the role of the state, in exchange for pure exhibitionist sadism.

The United States is now a pathocracy.
“A system of government created by a small pathological minority that takes control over a society of normal people”

They are not like us. We are a failed state because of our failure of imagination.

Americans needs to begin understanding that the rest of the world knows why Trump was elected.

They see us as we really are: a nation of arrogant, hateful hick morons who elected a narcissistic sociopath once, and knowing how horrible he was, elected him again a few years later.

NEWS: Texas has quietly shoved more than 1.2 million voters — over 6% of its rolls — onto the "suspense list" heading into a midterm the GOP is terrified of losing, and most of those people won't find out until they're standing at a polling place in November. Check your registration before October 5, because they're purging the rolls to save Ken Paxton.

So, after taking 31 US government equity stakes in private companies over the last year, Trump just announced a MAJORITY-STATE-OWNED oil company?

This isn't even "creeping" socialism anymore.

Royce White beat his wife and kid so badly a judge gave him a 50-year restraining order.

But sure, tell me more about “protecting women.”

Well nothing got cheaper, and now everything sucks. Thanks, conservatives.

People are finally learning that capitulating to a mob boss only brings more pain. Standing up and speaking out is effective. And contagious. Pass it on. .

I hate this shit from Americans. "Accidentally." He won a plurality of the vote after attempting an insurrection. Trump is an expression of something very dark in the American soul. Until you address that, we'll keep our distance. We're already finding new allies.

Milo’s enemies on the right are gloating about him ending up in ICE custody in what looks like an instance of the federal government being weaponized to settle petty scores. It would not be an exaggeration to say that his rivals on the right would cheer if he were mistreated or killed.

Meanwhile, people outside of the right who have no love for Milo are defending him. This is the fundamental difference between the right and its critics.

The right sees everything through the Schmittian friend/enemy distinction. You’ll get laughed at for suggesting that it is possible to even exist outside that framework. And yet here are a bunch of people who have absolutely no reason to defend Milo doing just that on principle. They could apply the friend/enemy thing, like the right, but they don’t. That is why any society, any culture, any regime controlled by the right will inevitably be more corrupt and unjust. Its critics are simply more civilized and have a better claim to the moral high ground.

@flatland_sports Lol, they kicked out Rice.

JUST IN: The Trump administration sent a man with torture protection back to Nigeria, where an immigration judge found he had previously been tortured by Boko Haram. He's now in hiding in Togo and has contracted malaria, per his lawyers.

Judge is demanding details on steps the administration is taking to return the man to the U.S. https://t.co/By7q3hoYad

Sophie Cunningham being vocal about not wanting trans women in the WNBA bc they’re “biological men,“ then being publicly silent when two actual male players declare for the WNBA draft, feels like a metaphor

Republicans lost their fucking minds when allegations emerged of Somali-American healthcare fraud in MN - but when Ron DeSantis & his wife stole $10M of taxpayer money meant for poor children’s healthcare & Ron rewarded his accomplices with promotions - the silence is deafening.

[MP Arizona☀️🏳️‍🌈💙🌵🐕🐕‍🦺🫂💦🏜🐟🌴🎙🌎🌻♍️🌊 @AzPetrich]

Those people who didn't STFU about harassing Tim Walz over "Somalian fraud" sure are REAL FUCKING QUIET about Ron DeSantis stealing 10,000,000 from poor kids to defeat the vote to legalize weed.

I don’t particularly care that a lot of Gen Z isn’t having sex. Reducing teen pregnancy and STD rates was always the goal, so that’s a positive outcome. I am, however, deeply concerned about how Gen Z seems to view sex. It’s bordering on puritanical. Anyone know why?

The President’s son is telling Republican state attorneys not to go after the companies he’s heavily invested in, and is a paid strategic adviser of.

This is what corruption, and profiting from the presidency looks like.

The women couldn’t afford to quit after she was attacked, so she spent 2 more years on that ship until she had to take leave to heal from the trauma — UNPAID LEAVE.

Her rapist was put on leave — PAID LEAVE.

Sick of the fucking world we live in rn.

New reporting from ProPublica just exposed that Pete Hegseth polled top military commanders on cutting the program that protects civilians from military strikes.

Every single one wanted to keep the program, but Hegseth gutted it anyway for being too “woke.”

What followed was a U.S. strike in Yemen that a Pentagon review confirmed killed 153 civilians.

On day one of Trump’s unauthorized war in Iran, another strike hit an Iranian primary school and killed up to 168 people. Central Command itself warned that these cuts would mean “increased risk of target misidentification,” but Hegseth ignored them. 

These are the consequences of having the greatest military in the world in the hands of the most incompetent SecDef in American history.
