Is this the same reading of the bible that says god sent Hitler to spur Jewish nationalism (as though the movement hadn't been growing for generations beforehand in Palestine) because if so we're in for a hell of a ride.

if i wanted to make devos a sympathetic figure to the left i'd leak that exact story

course the problem with this is i have no idea what that accomplishes so whatever the 19th dimensional chess move is here i'm not seeing it

maybe it's also just the case that people who've never done policy tend to be blank slates and often times change in weird ways despite seemingly held ideologies when they get in an administrative position.

The only way to stop Trump is to put Trump in all of our schools, churches, homes and workplaces. If bad guys have Trump then the only effective defence is for good guys to have Trump.

This makes sense because Trump's the only thing since 2008 to actually get people off their asses in any appreciable number.

The same is true of nearly every tech company with a large amount of long-term user data. Like when a large payment processor acquires a social payments startup and their investigations teams start cross-referencing contact and payment info to bust carders and meth dealers.

On the one hand, Zuckerberg is less immediately dangerous than Trump. On the other hand, I think I would actually hate President Zuckerberg more. Zuckerberg is a functioning adult whereas Trump I feel is on the verge of being unable to be held accountable for his actions due to mental illness.

He's not mentally ill in the sense that the hero Hinckley was diagnosed as mentally ill for almost saving the world. He's mentally ill in the Charlie Manson or Ted Bundy sense. Yes mentally ill but fully aware of what he's doing, why he's doing it, and fully bereft of any remorse for the harm he causes.

Oh, well it was originally written as the guy's MFA thesis and almost certainly part of his own process of reconciling his time in Vietnam so his inspiration came from a far more real place than Heinlein's beating off to Spartan military fascism or Card's very special boy fantasy.

They are easily conned and thought when he said he was going to do things they didn't like, that was just lies to fool the rubes, but he secretly was going to do all the things they wanted.

I've taken to calling them out on this copout. It's such goddamn bullshit, two major loving pillars of his campaign were the wall and the ban, don't come along like an idiot saying you didn't think he was serious about that poo poo, he explained it in interviews repeatedly and every time they asked he was like "yep, absolutely we're gonna" without variance.

They believed he'd do this poo poo, they just didn't think there'd be the backlash. They didn't think the courts would tell him to shove it up his flabby orange rear end. They're just trying to act like all the Germans post war who tried claiming they went along with backing Hitler because he was good for jobs and pride and never thought he'd try killing millions of Jews.
