Under capitalism, socialists are free to build socialism.

Under socialism, capitalists aren’t free to build anything.

Nothing stops a group of socialists pooling their money, forming a company, and splitting every wage and every pound of profit perfectly equally.... Or to donate all profit to the government.

It’s legal. It’s easy. Owning the means of production is as simple as setting up a company.

Marx wrote his manifesto before the invention of limited liability companies. Back then “seize the factory” meant seizing it from the handful of families who could afford one.

That argument expired the day anyone could start a company with limited liability, raise investment and hire who they want.

Socialists are free to lead by example and demonstrate their system works. They can out-recruit, out-motivate, out-build and out innovate based on their ideas if they like. It would prove the philosophy works. Capitalism will happily host their experiment.

The fact that nobody does this tells you a lot.

Bro, let’s stop pretending.

Muslims make up about 25% of the entire world’s population — over 2 billion people across 50+ countries.

Japanese people? About 1.4% of the world. One single country.

Shinto exists only in Japan.

So when people say “Japan should prioritize minorities and be more accommodating to Islam,” who exactly are we talking about?

The global majority is coming to one of the world’s smallest ethnic and religious groups and demanding that Japan change its culture, food, and traditions for them.

That’s not “protecting minorities.” That’s the majority trying to colonize a tiny minority.

Japan has every right to protect its own people and culture first.

If Muslims want to live under Islamic rules, they already have dozens of countries where they can do that. They don’t need to come to Japan and turn it into another one.

He’s the President of the United States — not your ex, not your personal villain, and not the cause of your misery. You don’t have to support him. That’s America.

But if someone is simply backing the sitting President and it makes you rage, cut people off, attack families, or act like garbage — you are the problem.

You’ve turned politics into a personality disorder: nonstop outrage and toddler meltdowns online. Grow up. He won. The sky didn’t fall. Pay your bills, care for your family, touch grass, and move on.

The Carroll case rested on a sequence of legal maneuvers with no precedent in American civil litigation. Democratic legislators passed a retroactive temporary law eliminating the statute of limitations for decades-old accusations that could not be dated, located, or defended with alibis. The day the temporary law took effect, Carroll filed her pre-prepared lawsuit, the first in the state to do so.

A Democratic mega-donor secretly funded the plaintiff’s legal costs through a nonprofit. The arrangement stayed hidden until one of Trump’s lawyers discovered it. A Clinton-appointed judge then sealed all records so the jury never learned the billionaire backer had publicly committed to Trump’s political destruction. Every participant in the legislative, funding, and judicial steps operated inside the same political network, and each decision produced the same cumulative result.

The jury explicitly checked “no” on the verdict form’s specific rape question. The judge ruled rape proven anyway, claiming the jury had used a common rather than statutory definition… an impossibility, since their rejection under the common definition precludes rape by any standard. Trump’s team was barred from arguing innocence before a second jury, which awarded $83.3 million ($65 million punitive) on the rape finding the first jury had rejected.

A defendant was sued for defamation over denying an accusation, prevented from asserting that denial as a defense, tried before a judge who concealed the plaintiff’s political funding, and hit with a nine-figure verdict built on facts the jury itself refused to find.

No comparable sequence exists in recorded U.S. civil litigation history.

A D.C. Jail lieutenant looked at me while I was suicidal in solitary confinement and said:

“Hope you don’t die.”

Read that again.

I was an honorably discharged United States Marine.

A pretrial detainee.

Presumed innocent.

Locked in the SHU after weeks of isolation.

My water had been turned off for 24 hours.

I told the man with authority that I needed help.

He laughed.

Then he walked away.

That is not “bad jail conditions.”

That is not “politics.”

That is not “J6 whining.”

That is deliberate cruelty inside a government cage.

And he is not the only one.

I just published the names of D.C. Jail officers I believe should be investigated.

Lt. Allen.

Lt. Crystal Lancaster.

Cpl. Hayes.

Pepper spray.

Water shut off.

Solitary confinement.

Mental-health crisis ignored.

Pretrial detainees treated like targets.

And before anyone says, “Well, it was January 6 defendants,” stop right there.

The Constitution does not disappear because the media hates you.

Due process does not disappear because prosecutors labeled you.

Human rights do not disappear because a jail thinks nobody will care.

If a suicidal Marine veteran can tell a correctional lieutenant he needs help and the answer is “Hope you don’t die,” then every American should want answers.

This is why I am building the record in public.

They wanted these stories scattered, buried, forgotten, and trapped on social media.

Not anymore.

Names.

Receipts.

Witnesses.

Documents.

The record.

Do not brigade anybody.

Do not threaten anybody.

Do not play their game.

Read it.

Share it.

Ask why these officers were allowed to operate like this inside the D.C. Jail.

And help me keep building the archive they never wanted the public to see.

“Men can have periods.”
“People with uteruses.”
“Birthing persons.”
“Menstruators.”

If you identify as the opposite sex, no matter how abnormally or impossibly, society grants you full linguistic and social recognition as that sex. You get the pronouns, the sports categories, the intimate spaces, and even the biological descriptors (“trans men get periods too”).
However, you are the sex you were born, especially if female, you get unpersoned. Your sex is erased from language. “Woman” becomes a dirty word, replaced by clumsy euphemisms that reduce you to body parts and functions. The normal, material reality of your sex is treated as offensive and unspeakable— UNLESS you are male.

In short:

1. Deviation from biological sex is rewarded with the highest status claim to the opposite sex.

2. Conformity to biological sex (particularly female) is punished with erasure of your sex.

This is a manufactured hierarchy inverted by ideology: the exception demands to redefine the rule, yet the rule is told it no longer exists.

A grand contradiction.

Biology is real, but language is being bent to deny it, and the costs fall hardest on the sex that actually experiences periods and pregnancy, with the physical realities being linguistically disappeared.

Hello Senator Thune,

Let's expose what you're really doing with "reconciliation."

You announced it yesterday, eleven months after the House passed the SAVE America Act. You're not trying to pass this bill. You're trying to kill it in a way you can blame on process.

Here's how we know:

Reconciliation requires the Senate parliamentarian to rule that provisions are "budgetary." Citizenship verification is not budgetary. Photo ID mandates are not budgetary. The parliamentarian will gut the bill. Then you'll shrug and say "we tried." We see through you.

Meanwhile, you WON'T use the tools that actually work:

Rule XIX limits each senator to two speeches per legislative day. Keep the Senate in continuous session, file cloture daily, and the filibuster exhausts in ~12-20 days. You dismissed it as "complicated." Because if you tried and succeeded, you'd have to actually pass the bill.

Harry Reid nuked the filibuster in 2013 when he wanted results.

Mitch McConnell changed Senate rules THREE times and canceled the August recess.

Chuck Schumer used reconciliation within months on a 50-50 Senate.

You have 53 seats. You've changed nothing, canceled nothing, and waited eleven months.

Now let's talk donors:

• Goldman Sachs: $150K to you - top H-1B user
• Google: $75K - lobbies against E-Verify
• Meta: $72.5K - Zuckerberg's FWD[.]us pushes mass immigration
• Wells Fargo: $90K - banks undocumented immigrants

Same corporations sponsor Punchbowl News, where you sit for "Fly Out Days" which nobody watches except Congress staffers and K Street lobbyists who pays premium bucks for legislative intelligence. Their reporter then telegraphs to the audience the SAVE Act "will ultimately fail."

Corporate money flows to you AND to the outlet that frames your inaction as inevitable.

We see the loop.

You called grassroots anger a "paid influencer ecosystem." YOU are the paid influencer. You take the wrong side of a 80% issue because you are indistinguishable from a K Street mouthpiece, and an ineffective one to boot who won't bend the rules to get anything passed.

What we want:

1. Force a real talking filibuster.
2. Stop hiding behind process.
3. Pass the SAVE America Act.

YOU will become the reason that we will have our butts kicked in midterms. Not Candace Owens, not Nick Fuentes, not anyone else. You and you alone, and all because you want to make the 200 or so viewers of Punchbowl Fly Out Days happy. You're living in a K Street information bubble, addicted to the comforts and praises of lobbyists masquerading as journalists. You mistake the steak and martini dinners you get invited to as your own constituents.

You are not "moderate." The SAVE America Act has 98% support among Republicans. Name one other thing that has 98% support. You are an extreme minority who prides himself on being a calm leader, when in reality you are well in the running for the most ineffective Majority leader of all time.

Prove me wrong. Do the bare modicum of effort. Not symbolic. Actual effort. Cancel the recess. Get SAVE America Act passed.

[DataRepublican (small r) @DataRepublican]

This is the best articulation of how I feel about Israel. Thank you.

I literally traveled to CEU in Budapest to gain access to private Soros archives. I smuggled in a scanner to scan every document possible.

And here's the hard truth: Israel simply isn't a player. Yes, many impactful policymakers are Jewish. But Jewish isn't Israel. Israel is just a tiny nobody country that has outsized impact in the USA of extreme religious significance to Muslims.

Muslim nations also happen to be by far the most powerful UN voting bloc and thus arguably the most powerful global faction in the world. So if UN has to pass anything, they have to get approval from Muslims. Which makes Israel a disproportionate target.

As a result, literally billions upon billions of dollars are being spent by Muslim nations to condition everyone into thinking Israel has some sort of influence. And that's why news media about Israel dropping a few million on influencers dominate everything but you have Qatar spending billions and billions in influence pass by in silence.

[Will Ricciardella @WillRicci]

I had a professor at Cal State Long Beach who constantly trashed America as racist, oppressive, and irredeemable. He mocked the Constitution, capitalism, and virtually every American institution.

At the end of the semester, he gave an emotional story about how his mother crawled through sewer pipes to reach America.

So I raised my hand and asked: if America is this irredeemable, oppressive country, why did she risk everything to come here? And why are neither of you interested in going back?

He didn’t answer the question. Instead he called me disrespectful.

That’s because much of this ideology is not rooted in reality testing. It’s institutional theater rewarded by academia, media, and activism.

The system incentivizes moral denunciation of America while simultaneously depending on the opportunities America uniquely provides.

[Shipwreckedcrew @shipwreckedcrew]

EVERY major Dem figure in the 1990s was a hawk on illegal immigration and strong border enforcement.

They took that position because of the claim -- justified in large measure -- that "Main Street" liked illegal aliens as a source of cheap labor, and that was contrary to the interests of Labor Unions who were a key constituent of the Democrat coalition.

This is true of prominent party leaders still in positions of authority today even if out of office -- Schumer, Pelosi, Bill Clinton, HRC, Obama, etc.

Population shifts in the US and the move of the working class/union members in the direction of the GOP forced the Democrats to abandon that position.

Obama moved towards open borders because the Dems needed more political supporters. If they were losing political supporters on a demographic basis inside the US they would simply bring them in from foreign countries -- by whatever means necessary.

It was the only path to holding onto power.

If the culture of the country had to be sacrificed to import political support -- and voters, legal or illegal -- that was a small price to pay for Dems in order to hold onto power.

From that arose the doctrines of "intersectionality" and the "politics of grievance."

Those are worse for the Dems than the disease that they were trying to cure.

Can't get bent out of shape over the X algorithm follies because the algo has been my foe all along. Monetization has always been a joke for me too.

🚨To every Black person tempted by the antisemitic wave sweeping right now:🚨

Back when white mobs lynched us in the streets...
When we had no money, no power, and literally no movement...

Who stood with us? Who risked everything?

The Jews.

They weren't just allies—they were family in the fight.
- Jewish leaders co-founded the NAACP in 1909 and funded/led it for generations when no one else would.
- When Dr. King and our people were arrested, beaten, jailed—Jewish lawyers defended us for free, and Jewish money paid bail bonds and court fees while others turned away.
- In Freedom Summer '64, half the white volunteers risking death to register Black voters? Jewish.
- Rabbi Heschel marched arm-in-arm with MLK in Selma—our struggles linked forever.

Without their blood, treasure, solidarity, and courage—there is no Civil Rights Movement as we know it. No Voting Rights Act. No dream realized.

That's why I stand with the Jews.
They were our only true friends when this country hated us—when doors slammed shut and ropes hung high. They showed up, bled, and built with us.

So to my people joining this demonic, divisive hate today:

Pause. Remember. Honor the alliance that freed us.

Our histories are bound. Our freedoms were won together.

Betray that, and you betray the very martyrs who died for our rights.

Black-Jewish unity forged the dream. Don't let hate destroy it.

I stand with my Jewish brothers and sisters—always. ✊🏾🤝✡️🇮🇱

Repost if truth > trends. If gratitude > division. If history matters.

The funniest maths in modern environmentalism.

One almond requires 12 litres of irrigated water to produce. Peer-reviewed, ScienceDirect, 2017. A glass of almond milk contains roughly 50 of them. 600 litres of water before the carton is filled.

The water comes from the San Joaquin Valley in California, which sits over one of the most over-extracted aquifers on earth. The valley floor has subsided by up to nine metres in places due to groundwater depletion. The carton is then refrigerated, sailed across the Atlantic, refrigerated again, lorried to a Manchester Tesco, and bought by someone who is concerned about the environmental impact of dairy.

Meanwhile, in Cheshire.

A British dairy cow drinks roughly 70 to 100 litres of water a day and produces around 28 litres of milk. That's about 3.5 litres of water per litre of milk. The water is rainwater that fell on her field or came from a local stream fed by the same rainwater. The rain was going to fall on the field whether the cow stood in it or not. 80% of her moisture intake comes from the grass itself, which is also rain.

She converts the grass, free of charge, into a litre of milk containing seven times the protein and four times the calcium of almond milk, and shipped roughly 18 miles to the same Tesco.

To recap.

600 litres of stolen aquifer, flown halfway round the world for nutritionally worthless beige water.

Or 3.5 litres of rain that was already falling, converted by an animal you can pet, into actual food.

The shopper picks the almond.

She has been told this is the ethical position.

The aquifer would like a word.

[Richard Grenell @RichardGrenell]

Nope. Not true.

You would have to trust their word on the enrichment percentage (they were caught lying multiple times)…AND the inspectors didn’t inspect everything - only what the Iranians let them inspect (read the IAEA reports), AND they lied on the amount of heavy water they had (IAEA reports prove this), AND they lied about the number of centrifuges they had (Israeli locker discovery proved this).

You don’t even understand what you are posting.
