We don’t talk enough about how morally depraved the tech industry turned out to be. Every single ounce of their self-regarding statements of values was an outright lie.

This was clear from the jump, but the Venezuela invasion going as smoothly as it did, from a pure operational perspective, is going to prove catastrophic in the long run.

A Spring 2025 poll shows Canadians saw their fellow citizens as morally good more than any other country surveyed.

He used to say "like bitches" and replaced it in his mental lexicon with "dogs", like he did with the n-word and "low IQ individual". You can trace the origin of each of his verbal tics to specific slurs.

He brings to mind that Chris Rock bit about the janitor not wanting to trade places with him, "I'm gonna ride this white thing out, see where it takes me"

you need to understand that Platner is not just a candidate , he is a canary in the coalmine to a certain kind of man that the world has not changed and they still can get plush gigs and pole position in society and life with zero qualification and even less aptitude for the work .

The term ”sodomy” low key the most successful and destructive psyop of all time. Cishets took a civilization getting smote for its lack of hospitality to the poor and the stranger and deflected the blame to gay sex for like a million years and counting.
