I thought Cromwell was a roundhead.
"Ironically, after Anglican Archbishop William Laud made a statute in 1636 instructing all clergy to wear short hair, many Puritans rebelled to show their contempt for his authority and began to grow their hair even longer (as can be seen on their portraits)[11] though they continued to be known as Roundheads. The longer hair was more common among the "Independent" and "high ranking" Puritans (which included Cromwell), especially toward the end of the Protectorate, while the "Presbyterian" (i.e., non-Independent) faction, and the military rank-and-file, continued to abhor long hair. By the end of this period some Independent Puritans were again derisively using the term Roundhead to refer to the Presbyterian Puritans.[12]"

(Also... just look at any of his portraits)

The other day I was thinking about how there’s still no public option for social media, possibly the most powerful force on public opinion ever conceived, and no sign that there ever will be.

One thing that means is that people can argue forever that this private company is doing normal private company stuff and regulating itself opaquely and arbitrarily, and probably be right.

Can't wait till the super serious must-agree Brexit negotiation deadline is pushed down the road

And then all future deadlines are pushed back

And the UK lives in an endless limbo where they must abide by all EU rules and regulations without any say in what they are, and also permanently unable to negotiate the amazing trade deals that were promised, because Brexit never ends

The UK has ruled out an extension so at the end of the extension period they'll crash out anyway. It's far too late to properly implement anything substantial until the new year as well, so even if some thin deal was struck they'd get hosed.

And even then negotiations will continue well into the decade. It's an island off the coast of a huge trade bloc, it can't really afford not to converge with its rules. That's the whole point of the union, that's why the UK was a member.

The whole thing is :psyduck: top to bottom.

Just Swallow

Chief Justice John Roberts prides himself on keeping his court non-political, but in doing so he has made it very political—and blue pilled.

The highest court in the land decided not to hear what is perhaps the most important case of our times: Millions of Americans have been disenfranchised due to blatant voter fraud. The evidence is stark and overwhelming, but the case was tossed. They said Texas had no standing. Trump has criticized the highest court in the land. If we can’t obtain justice in the face of blatant criminality, what are we supposed to do?

Supposedly there was yelling involved and Roberts’ expressed worry about rioting in the streets if the court took on the case. I’ve heard Roberts is either totally compromised (Epstein’s Island?) or that he simply has an advanced case of Trump Derangement Syndrome. Roberts’ decision was based not on the Constitution, logic, reason, or legal precedent, but rather on ‘fear.’ That’s hard to swallow, but so is the blue pill he’s forcing down our country’s throat.

If SCOTUS did hear the case, it would go in Trump’s favor because the fraud is overwhelming. Instead, it essentially endorsed the Democrat Party and cheating in elections. Roberts and his court do the bidding of the New World Order. The Swamp has standing—not millions of voters.

Make no mistake, the cheating will become permanent once Biden captures the White House. His administration will be the Blue Pill by force. The Red Pill will be smeared as ’terrorism’ and outlawed.
It was a 7-2 decision, and the two dissenting weren’t going to rule in his favor regardless. But sure, it’s all Roberts turning socialist.

Also red pill blue pill talk in 2020. Did Ben not get the memo that the Matrix is transgender propaganda now?

It's weird to see this is their new talking point. I've seen it on Facebook among relatives, even. That the judges are ruling against the truth (that is, Trump's side) because they're scared of what people will do. Judges are so scared of BLM, Antifa, and so on, that they refuse to bring these issues to trial. Because, as we all know, other than that, judges never have to rule on cases concerning dangerous or violent law-breakers. This is the first and probably only time judges are interacting with criminals and they're just so scared of what might happen if they do their job, so they're not going to do it. For their own safety. So this election not going their way is, as you can finally see, the fault of all those drat Antifas and black people, really.

Isn't that quote from how you guys treated the word "communist" (and still do)? You're accusing us of parallels to something you literally, actually did, and continue to this day? Remarkably on-brand.
