She’s awful. And really not at all smart. MTG is in the district next to and above mine. Not far away. My rep is a dipshit named Barry Loudermilk. Reading his Wikipedia page, it’s interesting how he managed to get into office from a local level up to the House. Not because of anything outstanding really, just that his story isn’t that unique and Democrats need to look at how influence and electability are formulated as they try finding their way into office. All this shit is important, every elected office is. Those offices are often incubators for new politicians to entrench themselves and their party in a particular place, sometimes for decades. We need to watch those offices intently too. It’s a huge mistake Dems have made, not investing in our own infrastructure.

But back in the day the conservatives only liked America precisely because they saw all those institutions were theirs…not even other Americans’…and hated our global opponents as obstacles to getting everything they wanted.

The sadism and the entitlement was there, they just thought they were winning.

re: #7 plansbandc

I think MTG is seriously mentally impaired. Not kidding.

But she’s not.

She’s just made a choice that most information does not matter, because it doesn’t make her feel good. Feeling victimized was more important than having an accurate sense of scale of human suffering: depicting the source of personal inconvenience as Nazis was enjoyable and produced more enjoyment when it was affirmed by other people.

That’s what this whole Holocaust Museum thing was about: it didn’t occur to her that she should know about the Holocaust, because her axiom is that however much she knows is enough to license confidence and incuriousity. Her theater piece was getting caught being so callous with information that even her audience of people that like being callous with information flinched. But it’s also why her contrition also won’t stick: her axiom will reassert itself once the shame burns off. And her base have their own axiom that says that callousness is a merit and cruelty is fun…and some of them will forget that time she was embarrassing because they want more callousness and fun, and others will learn that trivializing the Holocaust further is a fun form of callousness but not one that can be expressed publicly without shaming.

None of this is stupidity, let alone a form of mental impairment…it is a core belief that truth is a power transaction. She can say a thing and it is true because she can’t be stopped by other people’s rhetoric, or feelings, or epistemological arguments about why a thing is not truer. The only thing that made her perform contrition is the threat of loss of power: that her base and her allies will remove her clout and thus her license.

Eventually she will find the kind of coded language that allow her to say fascist antisemitic shit but not upset Ben Shapiro and his audience…or she will accumulate enough clout that critics can’t hold anything over her.

Powder Magazine Instagram post

Having been one of the first to document the freeskiing movement of the 1970’s, Mark Shapiro is considered the “Godfather” of freeride ski photography. His work with “Team Clambin”—alongside John Falkiner and Ace Kvale, who lived in a chalet in Verbier’s Clambin neighborhood—is the stuff of legends, and spearheaded the pilgrimage of many ski bums to the Alps to seek the truth behind his mythical pictures. Exotic landscapes, big adventure skiing, and ridiculously deep powder were his trademark, and his subjects, a who’s who of the international skiing brotherhood.

Here are Marko’s Top 5 photos of his illustrious and inspirational career. Link in bio to hear his great stories behind these images. #powdertothepeople #skiing🎿

My wife just got an E-mail from the VAERS programme about her report on the Moderna vaccine’s effects (in her case, restoring her lost sense-of-smell).

a) Someone in the government actually reads the reports. Considering how anti-vaxxers constantly trash the reporting system, that must be a pain for those who review reports.

b) She left out a single line of information on the report form (one of the dose’s lot numbers). That’s easily fixed.

The river here is very high. The dams are now closed, so the water level should drop.

The Auschwitz Museum slammed Marjorie Taylor Greene after she likened vaccination badges to Nazi-mandated yellow stars (Business Insider)

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene evoked the Holocaust to critique a local grocery store’s policies.
The Auschwitz Museum called the comparison a “sad symptom of moral and intellectual decline.”
Greene previously compared the House’s mask mandate to the treatment of people during the Holocaust.

Greene’s remarks represented a doubling down after she was similarly criticized recently for drawing a comparison between public-health precautions and Nazi discrimination of Jews.

Earlier this month, Greene lashed out at House Speaker Nancy Pelosi for continuing a mask mandate in the chamber. Greene called Pelosi “mentally ill” and compared the mask mandate, which she described as “abuse,” to Holocaust atrocities.

She has become an international embarrassment. That is why she made the hostage video at the Holocaust Museum.

From the previous thread:

re: #140 John Vreeland

Remember when Conservapedia went on a rampage denying the results of Lenski’s work? They kept demanding a sample of his bacterial cultures, to do what with them I cannot imagine, and nor could anyone else.

The most interesting thing about the citrate mutation was not that it was unlikely (very), but that given enough generations it was inevitable. This struck the religious zealots to the core. They seem to have deleted all references to Lenski’s work, but you can still find creationist bunk everywhere on the site, like the weird claim that the 2nd Law prohibits evolution.

All of that was preserved at RationalWiki, including all the letters from Andrew Schlafly to Prof. Lenski, and his responses. Lenski got more petulant with Schlafly as the exchange continued and it was obvious Schlafly had no idea what he was talking about.

Aside from the Bible itself, Christian leaders and apologists make some of the best arguments for atheism.

Gone are the days when a pastor or priest could say anything they want. Now it goes on the Internet.

People can compare what apologists or church leaders have said and notice they are frequently contradictory with their own theology, cover up crime, or at odds with what others preach from a supposedly inspired book.

Pew Research:

Unlike other U.S. religious groups, most atheists and agnostics oppose the death penalty

No religious group scored less than 50% favouring the death penalty, except atheists and agnostics.

White evangelicals were the strongest at 75%, followed by white non-evangelicals at 73%.

Black Protestants were the lowest religious group at 50%.

A majority of adults in the United States favor the death penalty for people convicted of murder, according to a recent Pew Research Center survey. However, views about the death penalty vary by religion - with atheists and agnostics opposing this form of punishment at about the same rate as Americans overall support it.

‘Allow teachers to teach the truth’ | Column (Tampa Bay Times, opinion by Leonard Pitts Jr., June 16, 2021)

A future Florida classroom of fear and loathing and no critical race theory, imagines Leonard Pitts.

The morning bell rang at Republican High (“Home of the Fightin’ Pachyderms”) as students shuffled in. Gretchen Niedermeyer dry swallowed a couple of pre-emptive aspirins and reminded herself as she did every morning that she was just 16 months and — a glance at the calendar — seven days from her pension.

“Good morning, class,” she said. “As you know, oral reports on African-American history are due this morning.” She ignored a chorus of groans. “Tommy, you go first.”

Tommy Weissmuller stood. “My report is on slavery,” he said. “Slavery is when they made the Black people work really hard. Like, they even had to work on weekends. And the Founding Fathers were surprised when they heard about this. They thought it was unfair, so they had a war with the South to make them stop. Then the South realized the Founding Fathers were right and together, they ended slavery. The end.”

New Telegram audio transcripts show how Proud Boys panicked when members started getting arrested after the Capitol riot (Yahoo!)

Proud Boys members squabbled in private conversations after the Capitol riot, according to newly-released audio transcripts in a group leader’s court case.

Ethan Nordean, a 30-year-old described as the “Sergeant of Arms” of the Proud Boys’ Seattle chapter, was arrested in February and charged with obstructing or impeding an official proceeding, aiding and abetting, and knowingly entering a restricted building, according to the Associated Press.

The most serious charge against Nordean, who also goes by the alias “Rufio Panman,” carries a sentence of up to 20 years in prison.

Court documents released on Tuesday detailed audio files investigators had recovered from Nordean’s cell phone, that were exchanged on Telegram, an encrypted-messaging service that has become popular with far-right groups.

In the conversation, individuals who appeared to be fellow Proud Boys members expressed worry about the ongoing investigation and arrests of people involved in the Capitol riot, while others chastised the members who took part in the riot.

Wallace v Jaffree (US Supreme Court case, 1985, goes to Wikipedia)

The case shot down moments of silence when the point was to promote prayer in school, in a case brought against the Mobile, Ala. school board.

Gov. DeSantis gave away the game when he held his signing ceremony at a Jewish community centre rather than a government office for his new law.

“The idea that you can just push God out of every institution and be successful, I’m sorry, our Founding Fathers did not believe that,” DeSantis said, shortly before signing the measure behind a placard that read “protect religious liberty.”

State rep Randy Fine (R-eligion) made the same claim when he introduced HB-529.

Alabama passed three laws, which were initially upheld. The first created a moment of silence. The second added voluntary prayer. The third allowed teachers to recite prayers with “willing students.”

The Supreme Court struck down all three laws 6-3.

Fine’s new law seeks to challenge that to smuggle in Christian prayer into schools.

Since the Florida law does not specify prayer specifically, there is room here for a student protest (for example, Muslim prayer mats).

One minute x thirty students in one classroom x one hundred eighty days = 90 student/hours of education lost for each classroom in Florida, just to pander to Christians.

And of course DeSantis lied, since a) he has no idea what the Founders thought, and 2) If they wanted God or prayer in institutions, you’d think they would have mentioned it in the Constitution somewhere.

The law will get a court challenge. That will likely come either from a non-Christian religious person or an atheist.

If it turns out like the Dover trial on teaching intelligent design, where an atheist family challenged the law, the loving Christians will send along death threats and drive them out of the community like they did in Dover.

During a 30-minute call with a conservative activist that was recorded before he became a candidate, William Braddock repeatedly warned the activist to not support GOP candidate Anna Paulina Luna in the Republican primary for a Tampa Bay-area congressional seat because he had access to assassins. The seat is being vacated by Rep. Charlie Crist (D-Fla.), who is running for governor.

It looks that way. I started reading the opinion; it’s 57 pages, which means the Court went to some lengths to explain why Texas is stupid. The intro said that the suit is over the “minimum required coverage” penalty and that without it, that section of the law would be unenforceable.

re: #95 Belafon

I think if you graduated before 1980 you were taught actual history, civics and science, not everything, but we at least talked about slavery and how indigenous peoples were treated by white Europeans. After that, I think much depends on where you went to school. Using just my family experience, I am the oldest of three. There are about 5 yrs between each of us. I graduated in 1978, my brother in 1983 and my sister in 1988. I got all that education and then some. When I was enrolled in high school, I got a HUGE catalog of elective classes that went toward a major or minor. The required classes dropped in number as you completed each year of school so that you could take more classes that interested you beyond what you had to have to graduate. I was a dumbass kid then and had no idea how innovative and amazing my school was. We had a full industrial arts dept with a shop, auto shop, a whole building for just the science department, all while having one of the best football teams in the state. Because the schools were funded and no one whined about it.

5 years later that was gone. My brother and sister got zero of that. I don’t think it’s a coincidence that much of this happened as more conservatives took over local school boards, mayors offices, etc.

Businesses like restaurants found that outdoor dining was actually quite popular, and businesses invested in outdoor dining.

What these GOPers hate is the fact that the outdoor dining often took away car parking.

And yet that’s a good thing because it got localities thinking about how street space is used and reallocating it for better purposes.

They also hate the fact that restaurants can do drinks to go, which ultimately helps state revenues and business revenues.

According to Kerry Eleven at m.dailykos.com:

Taken on its face, Manchin’s proposal preserves some of the most important parts of H.R.1 though certainly not all of them. Eliminating gerrymandering would give our democracy a fighting chance. Mandated early voting of at least 15 consecutive days including two weekends would help ensure voting is more accessible to working people nationwide. Automatic voter registration through the DMV with an opt-out option is a provision Democrats have wanted for years. Those elements in Manchin’s proposal alone would make the voting rights bill incredibly substantive and worthwhile.

Manchin’s support for requiring voter IDs isn’t ideal, but his suggestion that something akin to a utility bill could suffice makes it a more livable and achievable bar for most people. His support for allowing voter purges is even less ideal, but if the tradeoff is inclusion of something along the lines of a nationwide motor voter mandate, that’s still a net-plus.

And it could replace the state requirements that have turned into “you must prove you have given a blood sacrifice.”

This is a fucked up decision: Fulton v. Philadelphia. 9-0 (lots of concurrences). Roberts wrote the majority opinion.

The refusal of Philadelphia to contract with CSS for the provision of foster care services unless CSS agrees to certify same-sex couples as foster parents violates the Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment.

I’d argue that this ultimately legitimizes discrimination in adoption and foster care situations, meaning that same sex couples can be discriminated against by adoption agencies or foster care agencies.

The grounds on which they legitimized this discrimination? The provision of the city’s standard foster care is not generally applicable as required by Employment Division v. Smith.

That hate-Christian is Steven Anderson, banned from entering over fifty countries because of his hate religion.

Anderson is also a sovereign citizen. He also thinks LGBT should be executed by the state, claimed President Obama should be executed, along with women who receive an abortion or doctors who perform them.

Of course, no mention of Steven Anderson is complete without his being tasered at the US-Mexico border for claiming border patrol had no authority over him.

(Starts at 2:40)

Ok, this is the absolute ONE THING I agree with Steven Anderson on. I don’t think the Border Patrol should have checkpoints out of the immediate border area. The way the Supreme Court has interpreted it, there’s a “Constitution-free” (ACLU wording, not mine) of 100 miles from the border, and the Border Patrol has all these checkpoints. I have been so very tempted to answer in Spanish just to confuse the hell out of the Border Patrol.

These checkpoints are put in places where most of the harassment is to Hispanics and local indigenous people. The Border Patrol could set up checkpoints in Tucson, El Paso, and every city on our coasts but they don’t. So while I think Steven Anderson is fucking nuts 99 percent of the time, on this one percent I agree with him. The Border Patrol needs reining in.

Never underestimate the level of self-preservation in Thomas’ or any other Conservative Justice decisions. His first inclination undoubtedly is dogged Conservatism even if that means white supremacism reigns supreme. But don’t discount the possibility that someone close to him, family members perhaps, need the pre-existing conditions rules as well as federal subsidies in order to not start relying on Thomas’ own personal wealth for medical costs. Family members needing a personal bailout from his bank account are all the incentive needed to enable the sense of self-preservation and vote the “Liberal” side.

2/3 of Americans live in the 100 mile CBP exclusion zone.

Supporting for crackdowns against undocumented workers and illegal immigrants is highest in the states furthest from that exclusion zone.

I’m aware of that. I recall anecdotal stories such as the woman who owned a lake house in Minnesota who was concerned her house would be overrun by “illegals” from one of the “caravans.”

Funny how the immigration fear is not applied to the Canadian border. /s

The entire state of Michigan (along with Maine, Rhode Island, Connecuit, New Jersey, and Maryland) are in the Consitution-Free zone.

That puts all the big cities on the East Coast (Philly, NYC, Boston, etc.) in that zone. Lovely.

I’ve never noticed any obvious Border Patrol goons during my jaunts in and out of Philly, but I’m not the skin color they’re looking for, and I’m not gong to neighborhoods where they’d be harassing people.

It’s always in the back of my mind, though, that in theory CBP could come in my house and arrest/shoot anyone with no warrant, or reason, for that matter.

Trump whines American Jews ‘don’t love Israel enough’ because they didn’t vote for him

The thing about Trump is, when he gets upset he just says the things that other conservatives spend so much time building coded language for.

in 2016, the general consensus was that Trump would flame out, and the other GOP candidates wanted to be in a position to pick up his supporters once he did.

But since Trump was able to paint himself as the ultimate outsider, the anti-politician, he remained immune to gaffes that would have wrecked any other politicians campaign or even career. So he never flamed out, and his base of support grew into the Trump Personality Cult which the GOP must continue to pander to and mollify in order to continue to win elections.

from today’s electoral-vote.com (a bit more at the link)

A key upcoming test of Donald Trump’s power is his ability to clear the field in key Senate races. Trump’s previous endorsement strategy has been to endorse candidates late in the game, after it was clear that they were going to win. After all, backing losers would make him look like a loser. But waiting until it is almost over, then jumping on the winner’s bandwagon, hardly gives Trump any actual power to shape elections. If Republicans come to realize that his endorsement doesn’t actually mean very much, then his power over them will be largely gone.

As the 2022 Senate races start to take shape, Trump is going to be forced to choose between his image and his actual power. If he waits until it’s all over but the shoutin’ to endorse candidates, he will have a great image but no power. If he endorses early, he may pick some losers, which will tarnish his image. That dilemma is becoming more acute by the day.

But they don’t love Israel.

They like what Israel, when it’s governed by someone like Netanyahu—or more ideally, someone like Kahane—can do for them. Authoritarians have solidarity with other authoritarians: chauvinists that want to constrain membership in a society have solidarity with other chauvinists even if they have different sorting terms in mind.

If Israel had bent aggressively socialist but was otherwise the same, we would not be where we are: the kinds of Christians that support Israel because of supersessionist fantasy would simply deem all Israelis the Wrong Kind of Jew; the kinds of anti-communist, neoliberal hawks that despise public ownership would not be interested in bolstering the nation but instead supporting their monarchist neighbors.

There is still that breach of the GOP’s campaign servers in 2016. That information was never released.

I still wonder to this day why Sen. Graham went on a golf trip hating Trump, then came out of it as one of his cheerleaders.

Sen. Cruz called him a liar in the campaign, and famously refused to endorse him at the RNC in 2016. He too turned into a toady, after Trump called his wife ugly and accused his father of assassinating JFK. (Cruz had taken out billboards in Utah before the attack on his wife, painting Melania Trump as a slattern.)

One by one, Rs fell into line after he spoke with them.

IMHO, for Donald Trump, image IS power: he was able to leverage the “image” fostered by reality TV right into the US Presidency. In actuality, a second-tier real-estate mogul hamstrung by debt, taxes and legal issues, he was able to create/maintain the image of the jillionaire tycoon, whose vast wealth [illusory, but think of the audience he appeals to] enabled him to be, or at least seem to be, that “anti-politician” the prejudiced goobers had been clamoring for.

The imagined Donald Trump that motivates his base is actually more powerful the actual Donald Trump, man reigning over a kitchen full of barrow wights at a Florida golf club he lives at because he’s that thirsty for flavorless steak and continuous narcissistic supply.

While he’s alive, Donald Trump is…embarrassing. He’s none of the stuff they project on him and every time he’s given a mike there’s a mess that someone has to clean up or curate or re-contextualize to keep the myth going. A lot of MAGA cringe is performative enthusiasm…attempting in any way to keep the feeling of superiority and license Trump instilled going…but that tells us nothing about what will happen, completely absent a Donald Trump.

It’s a coin flip what these people will do if he were gone…but I suspect what we’re going to find out is that these people will seek the next thing that meets their gratification needs, because their thing is living in a loop of outrage, prurience, and sadism that they derive enjoyment from. It’s like people quitting Flat Earth CTs and going to QAnon or accelerationism: they were never there for a real discussion of ideas, they were there for an aesthetic experience that supplants good faith examination of ideas…and the experience they want is for the world to be simple and all problems to be solvable by identifying and punishing people that are different.

They’re going to seek out the next pornographer…and there’s going to be an entire market of them because Trump has proven a market niche and now capitalism is going to happen…and while they will not end up in exactly the same place it is not their precise ideology that makes them dangerous. That they are ultimately uninterested in the rest of the world beyond a narrow band of appetites means eventually they will always hate the rest of us and always default to the same mode.

The shitheads aren’t bold innovators in their chosen media bloc trying to dominate, they’re each hustling for a chunk of market share by doing slight variations on a predictable set of materials—the same pandering jokes, the same performative indignation—with options to sell their merch to the audience of other craven hustlers.

re: #136 mmmirele

Ok, this is the absolute ONE THING I agree with Steven Anderson on. I don’t think the Border Patrol should have checkpoints out of the immediate border area. The way the Supreme Court has interpreted it, there’s a “Constitution-free” (ACLU wording, not mine) of 100 miles from the border, and the Border Patrol has all these checkpoints. I have been so very tempted to answer in Spanish just to confuse the hell out of the Border Patrol.

These checkpoints are put in places where most of the harassment is to Hispanics and local indigenous people. The Border Patrol could set up checkpoints in Tucson, El Paso, and every city on our coasts but they don’t. So while I think Steven Anderson is fucking nuts 99 percent of the time, on this one percent I agree with him. The Border Patrol needs reining in.

(Ironically, most of Phoenix is juuuuust outside the 100 mile zone.)

I hit a Border Patrol checkpoint between Las Cruces and Alamogordo on US-70 about 5am during my trip. By the time I got to the guy on duty and stopped I am pretty sure the cameras I had passed beforehand had already processed the license plate and given him some data. He just said “Have a good morning.” and waved me through.

None of the current GOP have the outsider status or non-political popularity status of Trump. And I expect that at least a certain percentage of the hate cult view *all* politicians with a large degree of distrust.
