@Mike_kim714 Best I can do:
Everything breaks to Ray’s creek.
There is no limit on the amount of pimento cheese you can eat.
Sunday will be hot, greens will be infinity on the stimp.
Good luck.
This isn't the article I thought I'd be posting today.
But it's definitely the most important AI piece I've ever written.
Several close friends read it before I published, and every single one told me I had no choice but to publish it.
Read it, and you'll understand why:
As a former Special Forces Warrant Officer with multiple rotations running counterinsurgency ops—both hunting insurgents and trying to separate them from sympathetic populations—I’ve seen organized resistance up close. From Anbar to Helmand, the pattern is familiar: spotters, cutouts, dead drops (or modern equivalents), disciplined comms, role specialization, and a willingness to absorb casualties while bleeding the stronger force slowly.
What’s unfolding in Minneapolis right now isn’t “protest.” It’s low-level insurgency infrastructure, built by people who’ve clearly studied the playbook.
Signal groups at 1,000-member cap per zone. Dedicated roles: mobile chasers, plate checkers logging vehicle data into shared databases, 24/7 dispatch nodes vectoring assets, SALUTE-style reporting (Size, Activity, Location, Unit, Time, Equipment) on suspected federal vehicles. Daily chat rotations and timed deletions to frustrate forensic recovery. Vetting processes for new joiners. Mutual aid from sympathetic locals (teachers providing cover, possible PD tip-offs on license plate lookups). Home-base coordination points. Rapid escalation from observation to physical obstruction—or worse.
This isn’t spontaneous outrage. This is C2 (command and control) with redundancy, OPSEC hygiene, and task organization that would make a SF team sergeant nod in recognition. Replace “ICE agents” with “occupying coalition forces” and the structure maps almost 1:1 to early-stage urban cells we hunted in the mid-2000s.
The most sobering part? It’s domestic. Funded, trained (somewhere), and directed by people who live in the same country they’re trying to paralyze law enforcement in. When your own citizens build and operate this level of parallel intelligence and rapid-response network against federal officers—complete with doxxing, vehicle pursuits, and harassment that’s already turned lethal—you’re no longer dealing with civil disobedience. You’re facing a distributed resistance that’s learned the lessons of successful insurgencies: stay below the kinetic threshold most of the time, force over-reaction when possible, maintain popular support through narrative, and never present a single center of gravity.
I spent years training partner forces to dismantle exactly this kind of apparatus. Now pieces of it are standing up in American cities, enabled by elements of local government and civil society. That should keep every thinking American awake at night.
Not because I want escalation. But because history shows these things don’t de-escalate on their own once the infrastructure exists and the cadre believe they’re winning the information war.
We either recognize what we’re actually looking at—or we pretend it’s still just “activism” until the structures harden and spread.
Your call, America. But from where I sit, this isn’t January 2026 politics anymore.
It’s phase one of something we’ve spent decades trying to keep off our own soil.
Despite the head coach being removed for boozing and fornicating, the Ohio U. football team prevailed in the Scooter's Coffee Frisco Bowl. Proof once again that no amount of boozing or fornicating can thwart the success of Ohio University Bobcats.
75 Years Ago Today
December 24, 1950
The 1950 NFL Championship
One of the most dramatic title games ever played
Cleveland's Lou Groza kicks a 16-yard field goal with :28 left to lift the #Browns to a dramatic 30-28 win over the (formerly #Cleveland) Rams.
The victory caps the Browns' first NFL season with their first NFL title, after having won four straight AAFC titles from 1946-49.
⚡️The “DoorDash lifestyle” is an artifact of three massive structural shifts older generations don’t see because they didn’t grow up inside them.
Let’s break the illusion.
1. The marginal cost of money changed for Gen Z
For older adults, spending thirty dollars feels like spending thirty dollars.
For kids today, the psychological cost is closer to:
“three microtransactions worth of friction”
Because their financial environment is built on:
•instant digital payments
•low-commitment gig incomes
•parents transferring money fluidly
•side hustles paid in irregular small bursts
•stimulus-era normalization of cash flow volatility
Teenagers today often have:
•$30 now
•$0 tomorrow
•$50 on Friday
•$15 in crypto
•$70 in Cash App from someone they did homework for
•a $20 Venmo from grandma
•$60 from a weekend shift
There is no “budget.”
There is flow.
And in a flow economy, a $30 DoorDash order is not a “luxury”.
It is just another digital outflow in a stream of constant micro inflows.
2. Consumption is now social currency
Older generations spent money to solve problems.
Gen Z spends money to signal identity, reduce friction, and avoid emotional drag.
DoorDash is not about food.
It is about:
•eliminating effort
•eliminating planning
•eliminating discomfort
•eliminating logistics
•eliminating decision fatigue
This generation pays premiums to remove negative psychic load.
Food delivery is an anxiety-management subscription.
And they learned this from:
•Amazon Prime
•Uber
•TikTok dopamine tuning
•frictionless apps
•the collapse of effort-based value signals
Convenience is the default baseline now.
3. The middle class collapsed, but lifestyle costs decoupled from income
This is the part most boomers and Gen X don’t understand.
Kids aren’t behaving like they’re poor.
They’re behaving like people living in a post-middle-class economy where:
•ownership is dead
•savings are pointless
•buying a home is impossible
•college is a debt sentence
•inflation destroys the dollar
•wages do not map to adult milestones
•upward mobility is gone
So what happens?
They shift to a present-maximization mindset.
If the future is unaffordable anyway,
why not buy the burrito now?
Younger people are not reckless.
They are rational inside a broken incentive system.
The real truth
DoorDash is a symptom.
A society where:
•future stability is gone
•wages stagnate
•housing is unattainable
•attention is fragmented
•convenience is normalized
•friction feels archaic
•everything is mediated digitally
…will produce kids who treat $30 like a tap on a screen, not a financial decision.
They’re not “funding a lifestyle.”
They’re surviving inside the economy they were handed.
They can't help outing themselves, can they?
The apparatchiks of the press have been in an opposition-free environment for so long that they don't know how to watch what they say.
Donald Trump says "We will deport those who aren't loyal to America, useful to America, and compatible with America."
And this Feinberg character just comes right out and says "So you mean brown people?"
Which is what he really thinks. And why he wants to import them.
Because undermining Western Civilization is the whole plan.
Why?
Because American capitalist-adjacent semi-libertarian republicanism started working so well, in the mid 20th century, that the working class lost interest in communism.
That's why the Marxist apparatchiks started recruiting from the nose ring, doodle skin, and rapsheet crowd. But those people will only get you so far... unlike the working class, who have discipline and know how to build things and get stuff done, the pinkhairs are just losers.
So things had to be made worse, so communism would be attractive to non-losers again.
That's what importing third world brown people is for. Not only do they vote for communism directly, but they also turn everything around them into something that resembles the country they left... garbage.
Communism is only appealing when you compare it to garbage.
So why does he want communism so badly?
So he can be in charge.
Because communism is basically central planning of everything, and central collection and distribution of resources.
He wants to be at the center, planning everything and collecting the resources.
What he forgets, what all color revolutionaries forget, is that in a communist system, the people at the center are embroiled in a constant political struggle of all against all, and are forever purging each other, and calculating whose ring to kiss, terrified lest they kiss the wrong ring and wind up disappearing in the night.
That's what communism is.
And the bottom, a vast factory farm of half-starved proles in brutalist concrete block flats, ruled over by warring tribes of bureaucrats at the top. And no middle.
That's what we're fighting against.
I don't care if I have to be racist to do it. Because any amount of racism is better than one sliver of communism. And anyone who thinks differently is delusional about history.
