iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

Your average progressive/leftist could probably write a decent paper explaining the beliefs and history of conservative movements in the U.S., while your average conservative is constantly falling for their own dumb propaganda about what the left believes

020

Growing up in a rural Alabama town and attending a suburban public high school before getting a job working for said small town, can't imagine what your average Republican actually believes. Just a total mystery

030

Anyway I sit down with the other side all the time. The DSA Right, Indivisible Libs, Maoists, Posadists. Your average leftist's ideological circle would kill most Brookings radical centrists dead, like feeding a medieval peasant a dorito

It's like those Christians who ask you if you've ever heard of Jesus Christ. Why yes ma'am the name rings a bell, thanks

Sitting down for a nice brunch with a Nazi and trying to figure out what common ground we can find vis a vis liquidating the undesirables. Truly centrism is the most enlightened philosophy

Extremely funny story, in an attempt to kill public television in Alabama the board commissioned a survey misusing emergency funds, got a Republican firm and the results came back... And the overwhelming majority of the state loves PBS and Trump now has a higher disapproval than approval.

al.com

A poll meant to question PBS found Trump underwater in Alabama, instead

Trump's support in Alabama doesn't mirror the intensity of disapproval.

On today's French Fuck Friday, where we take a look at a different fucked looking French airplane each week, we have this ugly duckling: the Dewoitine 700. Eventually developed into a less ugly swan, the 750 torpedo bomber, which still looks wrong thanks to that double decker cockpit

A weirdly proportioned, nose-heavy twin engine airplane with a shoulder mounted wing and twin tail style vertical stabilizers. The entire nose portion is glazed with geometric glass panes and juts out strangely toward the bottom. The landing gear look much too spindly, giving a kind of "chicken leg" effect to the whole appearance.

The Dewoitine 700 in flight, the close inboard engine nacelles on the high mounted wing giving the plane a hunched, shrugged shoulders look

The Dewoitine 750 prototype torpedo bomber. This development retains the general layout but improves aerodynamics and adds a weird hump on top of the fuselage with what looks like an extra cockpit.

He's a proponent of the same doomsday cult worldview the rest of them are, he just makes his money by convincing people he can save us from the Basilisk or whatever their current antichrist analog is

I know there's some amount of groupthink in anti AI circles but this is a very funny argument to make when the most public proponents of AI are all in a millenarian sex cult together

You've got it backwards. "Socialism or barbarism" is not a threat. Its a description of material reality. The reason why DSA is growing so precipitously and party apparatchiks -and their hangers-on, hi - are so terrified is many people have recognized the end result of the Dems' historic politics.

Several weeks ago, Phil Tippett's legendary animation studio in Berkeley, CA closed. An anonymous hero noticed a folder of CDs. This turned out to be hundreds of unseen hi-res images and videos from Star Wars, Robocop, Jurassic Park, etc. ~90 isos for you to browse: archive.org/details/tipp...

Oh yes I view all Muslims as backwards savages. I'm a liberal btw

It's funny how every time somebody argues that U.S.'s relationship with Israel is an unalloyed good with absolutely no downsides their reasoning always boils down to the fact that they don't actually see Muslims as people

Surely they could have found an image of her that looks more menacing than this right

A picture of children's television host Ms. Rachel with her hands to her heart. The look on her face is one of unjudgemental love and acceptance. One who sees your pain and understands it. Fox news would have you believe she is hostis humani generis.

This is very dumb but it definitely has an appeal to the line of people who were hooting and hollering the other day over the "No Santa in Israel" "Quote." Some people just learn for Epic Claphacks. I'm not sure these people meaningfully exist outside Twitter/Bluesky though

There are no systematic campaign failures. There's only online leftists being insufficiently gun-ho about Harris. There's no strategic issue with funding a genocide, there are only individual bad actors in Dearborn. You know, /those/ people.

Blaming like Nader or Stein (who is, it should be clear, a joke) for Dems losing appeals to your average liberal because then the fault exists purely on an individual level rather than systematic. There's no problem with the Dems, or the courts, or democracy. There are only individual sin-eaters

I just don't know man. If I were compiling a list of reasons Bush won in 2000 I'd definitely start with the supreme court thing and the brooks bothers thing but would also probably put the 300,000 registered democrats who voted for Bush in Florida up there before getting to Ralph Nader

The Machine isn't quite at the level it used to be - there's been some pushback from other students bodies in recent years and the out of state body is bigger - but there's more than a few of very evil men in Alabama politics who owe much of their careers to it and the connections it brought them.

if you don't actually have anything to say when you wander into my mentions you could just go back to posting Biden's Le Epic Clapbacks like a #Resistance poster in July 2016, or else go take a nap if you can't keep from yawning

When 20,000 children die: 🥱 When Biden expresses "extreme concern" but doesn't do anything for the 8234th time: king shit

yes I am obviously talking about Biden, not his ideologically obsessed dead-enders still carrying on the good fight like Japanese soldiers staging raids in the Philippines in 1974. it doesn't actually matter what you did or didn't do, we have the full fruits of your guy's "king shit" to look back on

yeah it's weird, you let 21,000 children die because otherwise it would mean saying no to your emotional support ethnostate and suddenly people think the worst of you

what on earth are you talking about? The consequences of my actions? What actions? How did things get worse? The majority of death and destruction happened under Biden. What fetters do you imagine existed?
