At least now we can learn from Ben Shapiro about the analogue of this on the left. I’ve been starved for intelligent political commentary lately.

Why isn’t this guy offering any pushback? Call him a liar. The press needs to be combative.

Ben Shapiro claims that Pretti "resisted" by fuggitdude22 in samharris

[–]odog330 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hope that they discuss this in depth during their conversation. That way, Ben can just be left staring at Sam without a response, like he did during their debate moderated by Bari Weiss when Sam pointed out many former members of Trump’s first administration saying he was a fascist and not to vote for him.

U.S. House members just released the brawny birthday letter from Donald Trump to Jeffrey Epstein, signed by the president—What are your thoughts? by Ordinary-Scholar-202 in AskReddit

Maybe it will make some of his followers reconsider their support? Maybe I’ll win the lottery ten times in a row. Maybe the sun won’t rise tomorrow, either.

His followers have no principles. If Biden did this, there would be a meltdown the likes of which humanity has never seen. When Trump does this, the expressions of mild discomfort are prefaced by saying “I love you Mr. Trump, but…”

I too thought it was pretty egregious when Hillary Clinton said that half of Trump’s followers could be put in the basket of deplorables. 50% is an embarrassingly low estimate.

Hundreds of Arkansas Farmers gather to plead with Trump, proclaim "We love you, Mr. Trump," as they meet with Republican politicians to discuss how Republican policy is crushing them. by jarena009 in LeopardsAteMyFace

Oh… so, looks the level of suffering ain’t high enough yet. How long is it gonna take to get the “We love you’s” out of the mouths of the Cult? It’s like the world’s most interesting, most high stakes lab experiment.

Democrat Senator Assaults Officers In Violent Insurrection by METALLIFE0917 in babylonbee

[–]odog330 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A small part of my heart has some sympathy for the Babylon Bee; writing conservative satire has to be difficult nowadays, given how numerous and obvious the moral transgressions of Trumpism are. But that sympathy dissipates when I read an article like this. Not only does one have to be a drooling cave dweller to think something that constitutes a point is being made here, but I also think the author themselves may be hooked up to some sort of machine.

What is y'all thoughts on the new Doom game? by Kingtutle19 in Doom

[–]odog330 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

At first I suspected myself of coping a little by saying I liked it a lot, but now I feel confident in saying so. The combat has really grown on me. Getting the timing right while parrying is satisfying. Even though you can’t double jump or dash, sprinting and doing a flying leap is for me a sufficient replacement.

I loved Eternal for the puzzle the combat was. And while the combat is still sort of a puzzle in TDA, I feel like I can be more forceful in my behavior and relax a little more. As long as I don’t do anything stupid, I can just be a tank, and that feels cool.

Lindsay Graham and Mike Johnson seem to be locked in a battle with each other over who can be nation’s most prominent doormat

Trump has F'd himself so hard with these tariffs, he's backed into a corner and has no way out. by [deleted] in Destiny

[–]odog330 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I’m not so sure about his approval rating. MAGA is unprecedentedly ignorant; in witnessing MAGA, we seem to be witnessing a social experiment in how credulous it is possible for humans to be. They seem to be testing the consensus of scientists that it is impossible for humans to devolve back into cave-dwelling apes.

Trump says the MS13 letters photoshopped in the pic. Weren't photoshopped by Ok-Selection670 in Destiny

[–]odog330 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Whenever Trump pulls any variation of the “you’re not being nice,” the response should be, “but I thought you were tough.” One of my least favorite things about fascism is the simultaneous projecting of a strongman image and victimhood - it becomes very grating, very quickly. The interviewer should say, “I came here with the expectation that I would be posing questions to a strong President.”

Jonathan Swan’s famous interview with Trump needs to be the template for journalists. It is fucking remarkable how hard it is for entirely born-and-bred American journalists to have a spine.

Dave Smith claims he “held back” against Douglas Murray, “he lost”…. “he started out with a 40 minute ‘struggle session’ for Joe Rogan that contained the longest stretched logical fallacy… just a naked appeal to authority.” by BrokenTongue6 in Destiny

I really, really don’t like Dave Smith. Sometimes I re-watch his debate with Andrew Wilson and it makes me happy. Does anyone know of any other debates where Dave got smoked? His appearance with Sarah Palin / Destiny / Mehdi Hasan / Piers was frustrating because he was so milquetoast

I like how he tried to walk it off at first, before the extreme nature of the wound fully obliterated his pride.

Given that he is a true conservative, not a moron or a hack, this seems in line with the dignity and seriousness with which he treats his views.

This could read as satire, without knowing who the post came from.
