I'm as happy to clown on the DSA as anyone else but come on. Don't discourage people serving in the military from changing who they are and what they stand for.

He also has a podcast (I know) where he encourages people to leave the military and offers help (through some organization, iirc) to people who want to leave. Seems pretty decent.

No see he was wrong once and possibly even pushed into making a decision he didn't want to therefore he is scum filth and should be spat upon

You know. Just like the Bolshevik party did with all those disaffected soldiers of the Russian imperial army who took part in world war I

the guy got military training on the hegemon's dime and then hosed right off before he had to use that training against the global poor, which seems like a better plan than like 99% of the ones i've heard around here wrt preparing for the revolution

Well you're partially right. He did a tour where he realized he was completely wrong and then got an education on the govt's dime before he hosed off.

The American left is basically the poem about "first they came for the socialists" but instead they're just telling successive groups of allies to gently caress off until there's nobody left who could stand with them.

In politics, nothing is more important than the purity test administered by me that somehow, oddly, nobody else passes

Maybe related to the top to bottom infiltration of any leftist group by pigs.

i thought west point was straight-up tuition free? i suppose putting in a clawback provision if you get discharged, drop out, or transfer would be a good way to keep cadets. i have no idea how comissions and military academies work. when i joined the army and subsequently sustained an injury that kept me from going to basic, they just had me sign a form and that was that. i was exempt from the poverty draft.

I had a wrestling teammate that went to wrestle at west point but he transfered after a year after getting really into Jesus. id ask him what his tuition situation was but he upped and died while training for a marathon in his early 20s.

It was like a high-concept performance art thing to contrast him with Trump, referencing the time the lights went off at a Trump rally and Trump used it to demonstrate his expert negotiating technique of being a loud upset customer.

Pretty much the peak of thinktank-y campaign teams huffing their own farts, I'd put it above all the Warren stuff.

i "love" how blatant it is, and how even the guardian journalists wanted no part

my nephew is about two, he likes to give coloring book animals "nail polish" by coloring the foot/ground area of the page. he is getting rather precise, but it's still way outside the lines, tho not so much as it was six months ago.

its so ridiculous! a months old baby would be able to hold a pen/marker, but not draw anything with it except the line from letting go and it rolls off the paper

lol just remembered the Bohemian Grove. The juxtaposition between conspiracy dumbasses like alex jones making it out to be a serious shadowy cabal and a threat to our democracy and Nixon, the most powerful man in the world at the time, calling it (quoting directly here) “the faggiest goddamn thing”.

All those rich and powerful gathering in a “secret” spot you’d think they’d be up to something but all they do is get served BBQ, act like spoiled kids, set a cool owl sculpture on fire and go glamping.
