I’m going to go devils advocate here… first Rand Paul, now Ted Cruz. When things break they’ll break quick, and as distasteful as both of these guys are, they’re not the dumb ones like Grassley, Bobert, or MTG. They smell something in the wind or they wouldn’t have the courage to speak out. Could we be witnessing the beginning of a schism?

It's funny how we used to have this trope of the mighty censorship bureau that has to rubberstamp everything (like they do for movies) but the reality is that the sycophants will trip over themselves to censor their neighbors in order to please those above. In Reddits case you have subreddit mods banning and censoring to please the reddit mods, who are trying to please reddit management, who are trying to please people like Musk, who are trying to please Trump. Trump doesn't have to say anything, those low level Mods are doing all the censoring for him pro bono.

And they have the gall to say they're voting that way "for the economy"

They probably want him to do it, but he's too stupid to follow a script.

I did about 2.5 months ago. Not all but most. It's treated me very well so far.

Just like Trump is a poor person's idea of a rich man, Elon is a stupid persons idea of a smart man. He's not a complete moron like Trump, but he's no Stephen Hawking either.

Funny there was a town/region in Norway (i think, it's been a long time) that had proposed such a plan. I thought it was Ringke or somesuch, but it came off as really racist, like the "we only want the white ones back" sort of thing. Not sure what became of it.

As a father, at least half the lessons my son has learned weren't ones i'd intended. But he's a good kid, so something worked out.

nearly as damaging

really? More BS false equivalence. The liberals where never in control enough to make any of that happen. They may not be perfect by any means but to say they're "nearly as damaging" as the right is just ridiculous.
