Brietbart was doing much better when it could just rail against the evils of Barack Hussein Obama

Six months ago, Breitbart was riding the wave of the election, plotting an international expansion to provide a platform to spread far-right, populist views in Europe. But today, Breitbart is facing traffic declines, advertiser blacklists, campaigns for marketers to steer clear and even a petition within Amazon for it to stop providing ad services.

There were just 26 brands appearing on Breitbart in May, down from a high of 242 in March, according to MediaRadar, which tracks ads on websites. Many conservative sites, including Townhall, The Blaze and National Review, have also had declines, although those declines are much less pronounced than Breitbart, according to MediaRadar.

Communism will help more white people than anyone else. Any equal measures unfairly provide less to minority populations just because there's less of them. Democracy is truly the tyranny of the mob.

I met a traveller from an antique land
Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. Near them on the sand,
Half sunk, a shatter'd visage lies, whose frown
And wrinkled lip and sneer of cold command
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamp'd on these lifeless things,
The hand that mock'd them and the heart that fed.
And on the pedestal these words appear:
"My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!"
Nothing beside remains: round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare,
The lone and level sands stretch far away.

- Ozymandias, by Percy Byshe Shelly

(thank you for mentioning this, as it means i'm not the only one who thought of the reference :monocle: :pipe:)

he was referencing the Ozyman character in watchmen, I believe

you can die just by trying to handle it. there's a story in one of the TCC threads about a dude from blue light or some place got some of it, processed it into a tincture, put that tincture into his fridge, while wearing an idiotic "hazmat suit" of extra layers and a bandana around his mouth. didn't take any of it, just processed it.

he ODed and spent 24 hours keeping himself alive through sheer will, forcing himself to manually breathe and fight to keep himself awake, he couldn't even move his muscles for like 8 hours out of it

Carfentanil was developed as an elephant tranquilizer, and it's so toxic that people are afraid it could be used as a chemical weapon. Yet it's still Schedule II and marijuana is Schedule I lmao

This has been the same case with conservative and pro-Trump Twitter accounts as well, and it was hilarious to watch their real-time meltdowns as, literally overnight, the flood of positive mentions and responses ended and instead they were heaped with scorn and abuse

From their point of view, the kind where you're dumb as hell and a sociopath and think the Russian hack ops are a pretend story, the Soros paid minions thing probably makes sense. Hell I actually wish the Dem billionaires cared enough to do something like that

it's been a death cult at least since the 80's, when they permanently married the party to all of the Christian Evangelicals for easy votes, not realizing (or caring) that a core tenant of their religious philosophy is that world war 3 needs to happen so that the anti-Christ can be made manifest and trigger the Rapture.

not every Christian Evangelical is super hardcore about it, but it's basically all the Book of Revelation is about. it'd be a pretty gnarly basis for a dark souls-like video game if it wasn't the theology being actively used to cudgel the country into obeying their warped world view.

the other half is that they 100% believe that there's a literal HeavenTM waiting for them when they die, so having shortsighted and selfish politics here on earth is a big "whatever" because it won't affect them in HeavenTM :downs:

evangelicals are by-and-large some of the worst ppl in america but the number that actually believe this stuff and vote based on it is a lot smaller than the number that identify as evangelical.

the issue that gets their vote is abortion, and that itself is a convenient shorthand for a broader opposition to feminism and modern gender roles/equality. islamophobia probably is a close second nowadays.

I think this was pointed out before, but you're referring to a very specific set of Evangelicals here and what you're referring to would best be described as Christian Dominionism, though it is worth pointing out that that is a mildly pejorative term as they're really a loosely connected web of various groups with overlapping beliefs.

To say that that all Evangelicals fall under this banner is incorrect. I'd wager that more of them fall under the feel-good Prosperity Gospel bullshit, which is all about how God gives believers what they want if they pray hard enough (gross oversimplification, but still).
