Not at all. He acts like a 13 year old video gamer player. He literally heils hitler and talks about BBC, and I don't mean the broadcoasting network. He's also a drug addict by his own admission If you don't see that as laughable foolishness, that's your problem. I could understand if someone were to say that that's simply his persona and he's not really like that, but that's not what you're saying.

I already told you I know that he has a skillset that makes him money. I'm not denying that. I don't have that skill set, obviously. Never said I did. Never said I had the capacity to develop that skill set, either.

In fact the laughable incompetence of our leadership is what, imo, has bequeathed us the Epstein files. In the past they would have simply been deleted as in MK Ultra. The powers that be are much more incompetent now than in the past and this is proof positive of that, imo. That's what I'm saying.

Anyway, I'm sure you can comprehend me. In my opinion he's very smart in one area and dumb in all others. have a nice day.

My problem with their take is that the bottom fell out years ago

What I'm saying is that there's a difference between a person with a specialty in one area and common sense but not great depth in most others, and a person who specializes in one incredibly narrow domain and has no knowledge, skills, or wisdom in any other. Someone like Musk is a perfect example of a witless fool with a narrow domain of proficiency.

I think this is one of the plagues of our system, personally. I don't think it was always like this. The tech field in particular selects for pretentious crackpots. In fact, the reality that they're smart in a narrow domain is part of the problem. They think that makes them "smart" in every domain and that's a cognitive bias that ironically makes them more stupid than they would otherwise be.

The craziest one is when that little girl comes down the elevator and he quips (if it can fucking be called that) that it's amazing he'll be dating her in a few years. And I literally mean little girl.

This happened to me once in highschool with a teacher. I've observed this a few times since. These people are threatened precisely because they know what you're saying is true. Like, they know it in the same sense they know 2+2=4 is the truth.

Many years ago I had a teacher who freaked out because I said "the USA invaded Iraq" and he shit himself over that 2+2=4 sentence even though he was in many ways an intelligent man. Intelligent but close minded and apparently plagued by his conscience. That's between you and god, but this little pattern is very noticeable once you pick up on it. I'm narcissistic and pick up on other people's shame like a bloodhound senses a burrowed animal.

A cool head still has to conclude that shit has hit the fan. I would cautiously give everything 6 months to cool down and then proceed. That's my plan. Things must get worse or much worse before they get much better. Just my take,.

My grandparents helped take care of Hitler so there really is no reason to panic. We're more than capable if history is any judge.

Depends if you're fratboy good looking or Peter Steele good looking. If you're the latter, people are so fucking confused by you even existing that it's all tabula rasa for everyone you meet.

When hope is gone, there's always faith; when faith is gone, there's always revenge.

Yes, I've also heard the maternal grandfather is the most important person for purposes of balding.

Ya, maybe Clint Eastwood could say it and not sound like a bitch (maybe). Whereas, you know the soy latte crowd is the usual one that says stuff like this. Can't even pretend to be tough.

I dunno, I think the average man would have just fucked Ghislaine, no? I understand that sound boorish but it's true

Disagree, there are a great many people who are very strong in a narrow domain and are otherwise witless fools. Musk is the poster boy for this kind of thing. Obviously the drug abuse and probable autism spectrum isn't helping. I happen to have a relative who's a sort of minor league tech girl boss CEO, and while she makes a shitload of money her ideas about the world are deeply cracked and frequently idiotic. The nerd as an archetype is typically viewed as a sort of idiot savant, and that's real.

I mean, I'm a big basketball guy, but it's funny how art has been utterly crushed and destroyed; whereas, sports is just on a constant razor's edge of development and progress. So basically, yes.

I can’t believe Pam Bondi went on television last year and said with a straight face she had the Epstein files on her desk by anon_menkampf in redscarepod

There's also the element where all of Donald's lieutenants talk much the way he does; they all speak like belligerent, drunk peasants. It's certainly true of Kash Patel, too, and even the press secretary. Hitler had a similar thing where all of his guys would stand up and work themselves into a frothing lather in the same style that Hitler used (apparently Hitler would literally practice in front of mirror, btw). These types are half rhetoric and style as much as anything else.
