I wonder if he’s also referring to his MMA matches? But unlike Bruce Wayne, he was anticipating the pain in those. Muscle bruising/simple fractures/et al. <<< sudden loss of parents, anyway.

I’ll note that we seem to have our first candidate for the wildfires’ point zero: https://bsky.app/profile/jimmyjazz1968.bsky.social/post/3lfln7zypb22m

So not divine force, but “just” a power company choosing profits over laudable worksmanship. That sounds more like Plutus than El.

To add to Bastethotep, fascists often proffer their methodology as a “Third Way” in contrast to capitalism and socialism alike.

Said Ukrainian women would have to be willing to bed the likes of you. Given your rank selfishness, that’s not terribly likely, as I don’t expect them to be the kind of masochists you seem to think women are/should be (q.v. the so-called efficacy of negging).

Michael Voris #fundie

That said Logos was the same as El and therefore to be worshiped was never that obvious, as the Arian/Athanasian conflict evinces. (You’d think, by the way, that they could still find common ground in shared philosophy/ideals. Was it just a proxy for tensions between Rome and Germania…?)

I’m not sure I like the idea of the expression of any intimacy, the storge one you reference included, being set up in the kind of from-on-high set-in-diamond edict you frame this as. It’s certainly leaving no room for spontaneity, a crucial ingredient of intimacy of any sort. This is theurgy you’re describing, not familiarity. (Note the shared etymology with “family”, to boot. Hopefully, your own parents didn’t expect you to be diamond-bound…)

I quarter-expect the nation itself to split over this. Hopefully there will be ways to get the oppressed in red nations into blue nations more readily. But if such a dissociation happens, I worry if any other nations would take advantage of the possible compromised nuclear deterrence.

I know I speak of sovcit linguistic theurgy, but he took it to new heights (nadirs?). Although I wonder if he ever proffered anything on how language worked before the Angle tribe came into being.

What’s irrational about non-selfishness, exactly? Not just from a theistic view, but also from the view of Ayn Rand et al. I see no reason for rationality to assume solipsism, which is what this insistence sounds like from here.

Wait a minute, what’s with trying to annex Nicaragua? I don’t remember us being in any direct war with them; the Contra funding was intended to stay hidden.

Wonder if they expect the American Empire to hold all land on Earth by the 300th or 350th birthday?

Wintery Knight #wingnut #fundie #dunning-kruger

Wouldn’t morality having a designer make the morality subjective with respect to the designer? In other words, does God himself treat morality as objective—something that he cannot/ought not alter?

At least I was under the impression that “objective” implies “authorless”. More foundational than God but not actually a living/conscious thing, at least (so worship of it would be obviously pointless).

@Bastethotep #214015

Some others posited that this is a cult-like grift. Set standards that can’t be attained, leave them yearning for at least some kind of validation from you (probably his merchandise). The capture point here is probably instilling the fear of being killed by one’s bedmate just for being weak/“weak” (as though weakness were a form of malice…). Make the targets even less willing to trust their partners…

@JM1234 #213992

Knowing him, he probably doesn’t deem bellicosity optional nor deleterious. But I’m interested to see how he’d deem a world where all men were bellicose.

He (and they) would probably go catatonic from sheer stress within seven hours.

I think it’s hard for me to imagine why anyone would want to remain caught in any addiction. What purpose blinding bliss? (No, I don’t think bliss is a good thing, why do you ask? Gets in the way of curiosity and knowledge…)

Not that I’m sure what particular hormone they’ve somehow addicted themselves to. But whichever one it is, I doubt news of greater profit is the only possible conjuror while we work on undoing the dependency outright—there should be an analog to methadone. (Assume we have time and space to stop short of resorting to the halberd.)

@Timjer #213922

Once you get past a certain point—certainly past the ten millions place in terms of dollars—scoundrelhood becomes a requisite for holding or acquiring so much money. A couple of years ago, Bezos’s wealth was found to be genuinely undepleteable no matter what you paid off. Past the point I mentioned, money is unable to serve anything but egotistical glory.

And it ultimately is just flat glory. Makhno’s expropriations in Huilalipole (spelling?) had an interesting result—the originally-richer peasant families (who, by the way, willingly went along with this) did not report any decline in their standard of living after they ceased to be so rich. Note also that the once-poorer peasant families did have markedly better standards of living. Seems that on the graph where X = wealth and Y = comfort, the curve is logarithmic, not exponential.

I do not doubt many such ones would be more than happy to send the Statue back, if not destroy it. Probably replace it with a Trump-faced or Reagan-faced version of the Colossus at Rhodes, to boot.

So what is the end in question? If glory, I’m going to ask what its end is.

Besides that, are other species means to an end as well? Linkola might have had something to say about that, seeing how he was expressly an eco-fascist.

Probably expecting/demanding that harem shows not exist at all. It’s true that the general conceit of the genre bothers me, but treating this like mortal sin rather than venial at worst is definitely excessive. Why do they think Lust is typically considered the least perilous of the Seven Cardinal Vices?

Kevin D. Roberts, PhD #crackpot #forced-birth #racist #sexist #wingnut

So the argument is that social justice terminology is naught but thought-stopping? But I should like to hear what they’d acknowledge—if anything—as both leftward and thought-catalytic.

Although a sense of “this is what most everyone with a properly functioning psyche knows and believes” comes through anyway (just take the reverse of each term).

Which part of the army being loyal to Constitutional precepts, not any one general/president/etc., did he miss? Although I half-expect Trump and/or Vance (depends on whether Trump is both alive and any meaningful level of lucid) to call a Constitutional Convention to “properly” formalize flat authoritarianism—and probably vector Project 2025 in while they’re at it. Like binding the army to the president rather than the Constitution/populace.

Never mind my current go-to of the Aka tribe in northeast Congo. The men can breastfeed (although not for much; it’s more bonding and probably antibody transmission than sustenance by far) simply by applying some manner of crushed leaf to their nipples. I’m going to guess the leaf contains an estrogen mimic or powerful localized testosterone inhibitor. Either way, the Aka women have never had a problem with this.

So. How do they plan to explain them away? Just “backwards savagery”?

Majority of active voters, anyway. Even Trump got fewer popular votes than last time. The problem is that Harris got even fewer than Biden did. (i.e. notably fewer ballots were counted at all compared to 2020.)

Anyway…Golden Era? More like Pyrite Era, Osmium Era, Leaden Era, or Radium Era.

@TatersForever5481 #211033

Essentially so. The original Thomas Hobson rented out horses in the 16th and 17th centuries, and as you came up to his livery stable you could see the full gamut of 40. However, anyone who thought this was meant to be a selection of steeds was in for a disappointment–in order to avoid exhausting any one horse, Hobson would only rent to a given customer the horse closest to the door and rotate the others closer when one was returned. At least you could tell the health of the full complement for return visits when you more than likely would not be given the same horse as before.

@Malingspann #210943

Hopefully not. But it’s still a matter of what’s more unbearable, between being forced to help a malicious usurper or military nettles. Although given the materiel Trump could command, and him being kind of fond of nuclear weaponry (Remember him wanting to use a nuclear bomb to disrupt a hurricane?)…

@Passerby #210939

I wouldn’t be surprised if that incited one or two secession movements (“We ain’t knuckling under to an ill-intentioned usurper!”). The obvious problem is that MAGA doesn’t seem to have a place of total absence, so there’d be counter-insurrection from the onset.

I think there’s the matter of also wanting markedly superior status—which won’t be possible in anything like egalitarianism. As previous offerings of him evince, Snake isn’t that different from Tim Rifat except for not glorifying sadism so outwardly. Think in terms of Mudsill Theory, that refinement isn’t possible without a permanent underclass of drab, resigned laborers.

I’d swear they’ve gladly become addicted to sneering and contemning. (No, that’s not a misspelling.)
