PhazonLink posted:see ever time there's a wage increase, and Fox finds a "small biz" shitlord to say "they're closing" The wonderful and good thing that smol business owners here did was to go to the media and complain that they couldn't find anyone to work for them, even when they offered above starvation wages! and that's why the government should immediately open the floodgates to migrant workers whom they can exploit. Redditors went digging and found that the business in question had never actually advertised for staff at all, let alone with whatever inflated and likely imaginary benefits they'd been touting.

OgNar posted:If anyone wants to watch Trumps speech from Iowa today. If we do not elect Trump president we are all going to die is true. It's one of the few true things he has ever said. Of course, it's also true even if we do elect him president, but still. "Death is certain" is a factually correct statement.

Twitter seems to be just a firehose of right wing propaganda about the Iowa event right now. It looks like the 2015-2017 era bots are back too. They're really loving obvious to spot with all the emojis and accounts full of retweets. Meanwhile with the Biden hash tag it's impossible to find a single positive tweet about him If anything it's more blatant than even in the years surrounding the 2016 election. Both the Trump and Biden hash tags seem to be trending in exactly the 818K territory as of this post. Almost an exact 1:1 ratio  Weirdly DeSantis hash tag seems to be turning up just actual legitimate news stories about him so I don't think he's getting any boosting from anyone. This one might not even be Elon since I believe DeSantis is his guy not Trump.

It's just as meaningless as their critiques of CRT. SVB board wasn't entirely white men so therefore had gone "Full ESG," and therefore failed.

It was Carter and black people all along! And somehow a law that was passed in the 1970's just waited until 2008 to explode for reasons. I had a discussion with my libertarian brother-in-law and he cited a government document that said "the CRA had little to do with the subprime boom and subsequent crash," because "little" meant there was some connection there. I think that was the last time we seriously discussed politics.

Fox Business host Larry Gargamel: "Lord knows what other left-wing romping was going on in these smurf banks. By the way, San Francisco Fed head Mary Daly is considered herself to be quite a smurfster!" Gargamel: "Where were Mary Daly’s bank examiners? You know, Mary Daly, I hate to get personal but she is known as a smurf Fed head, probably the leading smurf." Gargamel: "He needs to haul this guy Gruenberg up, he's the head of the FDIC who's a smurf guy. He's got a board of smurf people."

There's already a canon Jokester, who was the Earth-3 inversion of the Joker. So it stands to reason that the Wokester is somehow the polar opposite of the Woker.

I can't imagine what kind of person would think like this. Or want to think like this. He's thinking that the problem with Catholics today is they're too hopeful. Dare We Fear That Most Men Be Damned? Modern Catholics live under the assumption that Hell is mostly empty. But doing so radically impacts our ability to fulfill the Great Commission. https://www.crisismagazine.com/opinion/dare-we-fear-that-most-men-be-damned This is a incredible read. quote:Yet when the inclusivist viewpoint became predominant in the 1960’s—and was essentially endorsed by Vatican II—missionary work crashed and participation in the Sacrament of Confession dramatically dropped, disappearing into the mists of history. Pell’s question is a fair one: aren’t all these things connected? Pondering its consequences, he came eventually to question the dominant inclusivist viewpoint in the Church. quote:Again, some might argue that such a “negative” attitude could lead a person to become condemnatory and harsh toward others. quote:In recent years Bishop Robert Barron popularized von Balthasar’s teaching, making it more accessible to the Catholic world, and Barron’s own loose evangelization methods (such as saying Christ is the “privileged way” as opposed to the only Way and not encouraging Ben Shapiro, who is Jewish, to convert when given the chance) have only strengthened the assumption among modern Catholics that most will be saved.

If catholics are worried about saving people’s souls, they should get on what to do about the billions who died before Jesus was born. All those cavemen burning in hell because Jesus hadn’t been invented yet.

All those cavemen burning in hell because Jesus hadn’t been invented yet. They'd be about 2,000 years too late for it. The Harrowing of Hell is far too metal a name for an obscure point of doctrine. Though I will grant you that the sort of person who believes that their family are the last five genuine Catholics on Earth and therefore they are the Pope probably has a few things to say in contravention of it.

The other Woke fun from earlier was this person who said Woke and then was asked to define it. And then completely broke down. https://twitter.com/vanguard_pod/status/1635749284355211264 Sure some people can get a little stage fright when deviating. But then theres this previous opinion article about how Jewish people need to start befriending Neo Nazis in the cause of bringing people together. https://forward.com/opinion/380510/we-need-to-start-befriending-neo-nazis/

It's actually very easy to explain in a 15 second soundbite: Woke is every front conservatives are losing in the culture war, and the natural progression from using CRT, their previous catchall for those fronts. I wonder why she couldn't say that...
