Did they mention race at all? I might’ve missed it. Bet that would yield more “surprising” results

In political science, a reactionary or a reactionist is a person who holds political views that favor a return to the status quo ante—the previous political state of society—which the person believes possessed positive characteristics that are absent from contemporary society. As a descriptor term, reactionary derives from the ideological context of the left–right political spectrum. As an adjective, the word reactionary describes points of view and policies meant to restore a status quo ante.

As an ideology, reactionism is a tradition in right-wing politics; the reactionary stance opposes policies for the social transformation of society, whereas conservatives seek to preserve the socio-economic structure and order that exists in the present. In popular usage, reactionary refers to a strong traditionalist conservative political perspective of a person opposed to social, political, and economic change.

Reactionary ideologies can be radical in the sense of political extremism in service to re-establishing past conditions. To some writers, the term reactionary carries negative connotations—Peter King observed that it is “an unsought-for label, used as a torment rather than a badge of honor.”

Sure but what’s their excuse? Is everyone simply a huge Meta investor? That’d be my best guess for how multiple people try to achieve something like this without looking at the consequences - personal gain. But I’m still inclined to believe these politicians/surrogates want to do a decent job and/or get re-elected

For sure. I just wonder why no one could see this coming. I get Biden is old as shit and ignorant af, but isn’t there supposed to be a team informing him on shit? I mean, guess the same goes for all the congress(wo)men that supported such a stupid, irrational policy

What absolutely atrocious politics

You and what army?

I mean, like are you from Iran another country likely to attack them or something? Who do you see attacking Israel, in that scenario

I didn’t downvote you, btw. Just wondering which one of us is more confused here. lol. No hate

This absolutely the right lesson to learn here. Who cares if you can’t discuss it (not literally)? We already know the American people agree. We now need to take the next step to unify the working class and organize so we can coordinate our efforts and exercise actual political power

You replied to an accelerationist. Don’t threaten them with a good time. lol …or try to teach them; they’re likely a reactionary, too

Have you/Has anyone seen the r/worldnews subreddit lately? Shit’s wild! Can’t imagine how hard it would be to join/leave that community and learn the truth

Hmm… not bad. I only watched 5ish min, but he seems genuine - that is to say, he realizes he fucked up, not that he’ll actually change anything

More interesting, to me, as someone that had only heard about this from headlines, you can clearly see the mental illness pervasive in his community by looking at the comments and even moreso by looking at the guy’s room. Dude is someone we should pity, not hate - granted I understand influencers having massive platforms, and well influence

Still, I wish we could be more like the Palestinians and Arabs he mentions, that checked on him to see if he was ok, instead of the knee-jerk, quick to react Americans we are, that are ready to pounce on a fallen neighbor enemy and eager to find ways we’re different to further divide ourselves

I stopped clicking on android authority links after they faked a drop test to make an iPhone look good

That said, what are people using nowadays or what. I tried skiff earlier this year and then it almost immediately announced they were stopping their email service

I can’t imagine the stress if I’d had anything important I needed to transfer to another email. I mean, besides losing everything of course

Edit: relevant absolutely ridiculous, watching it again. No shame! I wonder if they ever even addressed it

Idk, I’m bilingual and I only ever think in English. It doesn’t really seem to make a difference though, saying things out loud vs in my head.

I’m learning a third language now and can just barely communicate with others (worked with a taxi driver!). That said, I wouldn’t consider myself truly trilingual yet. I could think in that language but it doesn’t really feel like it changes anything - I still only know the same words in my head

It’s cheap

So do most people, at least speaking for Americans. Ignoring all other context, at least this guy gives a miniscule shit about what his people think/want. That’s just like basic politics

I do have to wonder if he thinks he’s in more danger of losing it all than other contemporary government leaders

I just learned that Rockefeller significantly improved his image by giving away the money he stole from his workers.

Maybe Amazon can just to donate half of the money they don’t pay in taxes to win back most people’s support - hell, maybe even less than that!

Some people simply don’t know how to be good friends. You really shouldn’t take it personal

I’ve just had to learn my closest friends simply aren’t capable of providing emotional connection like I’d like. I’m working on becoming a better friend to them, meeting them where they are , trying to figure out how to provide for and validate my own emotional needs, so I can eventually work up the courage, or whatever it is I need, to meet friends that are more emotionally mature enough to have the real connections I’m looking for

I once delayed a party where I had tons of family over because my friends hadn’t arrived. They didn’t get there until like 10 or something, after I’d already told them to just fuck off. The thing is, they are my friends and they legit care about me in their own (weird to me) ways. I’ve just come to realize they’ve got legit issues, as I do (part of why we’re drawn to being friends), that they’re working on to varying degrees, and I simply can’t expect more from them than they’re capable of giving

Good luck finding a chill healthy tribe of folks that shares similar values to your own!

And who are the good guys?

Are you one of the good guys? Oh shit am I?

lol. Bad guys?

Anyone know if The Finals counts as a “live service” game? It’s free to play and I think it’s fantastic - both the game and the fact it’s free.

I just don’t play games enough to justify the huge asking prices anymore. The last games I paid for were COD MW2 and Cyberpunk and I doubt I’ll ever drop $70+ for a game again, especially when there’s games like splitgate and whatnot that are free (not that I ever tried the new one. lol)

So now the best time to take that Euro trip?

Seriously though, just went to Italy, France and Netherlands and it was incredibly how cheap and easy it was to fly between different countries. Definitely want to go back for Germany
