My favorite recent post genre is people quote tweeting a Fuentes clip with “I don’t even like Nick, but…” in their local vernacular.
They come in all flavors.
Liberal wine aunts: “I can’t believe I’m saying this, but…”
Black influencers: “I ain’t reppin dis nigga but yo…” then I open the video and Nick is carpeting whole civilian neighborhoods with N-bombs.
Chastened college republicans: “Nick is still repulsive, but he made a good point. Also, Dad, I’m gay.”
Hilarious stuff.
I know multiple people who basically quit working on Bitcoin because of how stressful it is to maintain software that handles money nowadays.
I tell them all the same thing: What do you think will happen if we all quit and become gardeners? Are we just going to give up on the internet? Do we just accept fiat as the end game? Are we just going to let go of the dream of an internet that doesn't exploit your humanity and take away your rights to privacy and self-determination?
I know, fuck, it is hard. But you're not alone.
We must fix this. Nobody else is there to do the necessary work. If we stop doing this, we're 100% doomed. I can guarantee it.
But if we continue, we have a chance.
Ambassador Huckabee, this is unreleased video of an American who was beaten almost to death last week by Israeli settlers. You know his name because he came to you for help, but you blew him off. That’s disgraceful. Do your job.

The movies have some of the worst acting and writing to ever be featured in a big budget Hollywood film. Even worse than the original Star Wars trilogy, which is saying something.
Muslim community leader brags that Alvin Tedjo's unexpected win in Mississauga can be credited to his statement against Islamophobia and the genocide in Gaza.
Takeaways are two-fold.
1. Our municipal elections are being hijacked by ethnic voting blocs to focus foreign issues that have nothing to do with local government.
2. This is the sort of impact an organized community can make in elections with only 17% of the electorate.
Imagine the impact Canadians can have if we just take our own side.
