I believe fraternity hazing and military hazing and sports team hazing where men abuse each other is acclimating them into a broader culture of abuse where they will then believe it is their right to abuse other more vulnerable people. It’s so insidious. And that’s also why I think men defend it

Eric Schmitt not backing down after that Jack Smith exchange:

“I asked him if he was in Atlanta. He said he was not in Atlanta. Jack Smith has lied before. He tried to jail the president of the United States. I have no sympathy for Jack Smith. He's a total dirtbag.”

I hope we get some real reporting on how this came to happen. Did Schmitt know it was a lie, but believe that Smith somehow wouldn’t be able to disprove it on the spot? Or was it that he really just jumped the gun in the most idiotic possible way? What was with them yanking away that placard? Etc.

Here's the full transcript of the ad in question. Assuming all of it is accurate I find it difficult to believe that he has a leg to stand on:

"One evening I see lights. I open the door, and it's a police officer. They arrested me because I didn't make a $50 payment to Roger Marshall. I was 8 months pregnant and I said please, do not handcuff me in front of my 2-yr old daughter.

"Roger Marshall preyed on the low-income families of Kansas. The healthcare system is broken...but not for Roger Marshall. He's absolutely profiting from it.

A beloved classic reimagined

Four labelled panels.
The first panel is labelled "Skull Panda", and depicts a drawing of Skull Panda.
The second panel is labelled "Skull Panda 2", and is the same drawing as the first panel, with a scarf added.
The third panel is labelled "Skull Panda Remastered", and is the same drawing as the first panel, but with extreme lighting applied to it.
The fourth panel is labelled "Skull Panda remake". It depicts Skull Panda in an alarming detailed style, with a realistic skull head and a human body and clothes, standing in a detailed grassy field in front of a photo background with a rainbow.

There is evidence that Gary may have personal issues preventing him from forming meaningful relationships which are totally unconnected to his employer www.wired.com/story/tech-b...

ENGAGED IN A flirtatious conversation at a bar in Manhattan, 23-year-old Gary stood with a Guinness in hand as *he explained to a woman why he took an engineering job at Palantir,* the data analytics company cofounded by Alex Karp and Peter Thiel.
*Raking in a $250,000 salary would allow him to help pay off his parents' mounting medical bills,* he explained.
Gary wasn't met with sympathy. Medical debt, the woman told him, was "not an excuse to work somewhere like that."
