👇I weigh Jeremy’s opinions here highly, and I am - still - a civic nationalist at heart (I guess you could call me a “heritage American” given my Mayflower roots but for whatever reason I don’t like the term - I prefer “American of Anglo-Saxon ethnicity,” or just “American.”)

By this logic Zohran Mamdani, Hasan Piker, and Mehdi Hasan are just as American as someone who traces their lineage to the Mayflower Sorry this just doesn’t work

I’m a believer in the American creed and the principle of assimilation, but it’s self-evidently true that America’s “lineage,” especially the founding generation, is the vital source of our national strength. Yes, those early Americans designed a system that allowed for

@TommyTucker091 @grandpajerald @robert_lyman For me what it comes down to is that the electoral base of the Labour Party is based on a rape-for-votes bargain that’s just now completely obvious. If you’re the sort of people who’ll brazen that out then you’re the sort who’d do practically anything.

How many of them had had their daughters mutilated in so horrific and barbaric ways that if a White American had done this to their daughter he would be the most infamous and hated person of the century?

“This doesn’t apply to Israel and its ancestral claims”

It never fails.

@willchamberlain

People are so desperate to advance the “creedal nationalism” thing that they’re saying insane bullshit like this. It’s “loser shit” to care about your ancestors? What? The exact opposite is the case. It’s “loser shit” to act like you just popped into existence on your own, like

@RenuMukherjee1 Hey everyone "Renu Mukherjee" wants to tell us what an American is

A fascinating conversation between an Englishman and a Jew. The Jew says Jews are a people. The Englishman says the English are a people. Seems fair? No, attack the assumed motivation. This “race war” is “ludicrous self-pity and rabble rousing.” Said without a hint of irony.

Share widely. Adorable, funny, and yet sad & infuriating

I wanted to grow up in a Britain where CSE detectives didn’t ask me if I “consented to sexual activity” after I was abused from the age of 5. I wanted to grow up in a Britain where the police didn’t show up at my door to threaten me after I exposed their failings on TV. I

This is unfair

Answer is simple. Men who wore skirts/dresses never made the ludicrous assertion that they were women & never sought to invade women's spaces or sports. They knew they were immutably men. Now, men who wear skirts/dresses assert that by dint of simple say so, they are actual women

How to lose $50M in under an hour. This is one of the largest on-chain scam losses we’ve seen recently. A single victim lost $50M in $USDT to an address poisoning scam. The funds had arrived less than 1h earlier. The user first sent a small test tx to the correct address. Mins

Bowie was awesome. So was Lou Reed, so is Grace Jones. Appreciating gender nonconformity has nothing to do with the biological reality—and immutability—of sex in humans. In fact, conflating the two is polarizing people further. If you can’t appreciate a gender bending woman

@marcorandazza One of my teenaged family members is a girl & says she can’t change at the gym b/c random males just lounge in the locker rooms & no one stops them. I understand this is now a phenomenon reported in many other blue areas around the country. GenX was not responsible for this

Gen X didn't have a problem with this, and even liked and celebrated it, because during Gen X, the theater and art school kids made great theater and great art and we loved them for it. The government major types ran the government. Then, you fucking idiots said "lets have

While affirmative action affects whites, the bulk of the discrimination fell on Asians. Recall that Asians had nothing to do with “white supremacy” or slavery or any other reason made up to justify discrimination of this form.
