The last time they were engaged socially was 1992, and their entire experience with immigrants has been the man who mows their lawn and puts on a smile.

Their experience with black people has been "Michael" from the office who represents the top .01% most functional blacks in the world. No way Michael would ever do anything to warrant being shot by a cop so that must apply to all of them!

They have 0 experience with troons but the gay couple on modern family sure is funny and troons are basically the same things i guess (in their heads they just think "fags" make no mistake about it) so they must all be great.
CNN told them to. It really is that simple. They grew up in a time when institutions were somewhat based on meritocracy and as such if there's a successful institution like CNN it cannot be lying to you, they have researchers, data analysts, and oversight which is what makes something trustworthy. Like a doctor.
It is skullpoundingly difficult to break them out of this mentality and realize how fucked everything is.

The good news is that redpilling is a one way road.
This chick and everyone she knows is going to start asking questions and promptly told they're bad people for asking them. That's when it starts. I've seen it happen with less traumatic things than this, hell for me it was just living in a big city for a few years, for others i've seen it happen from just ending up in the wrong facebook page.

Disclamer as usual: I am not telling people to get complacent so don't tap the fucking sign at me. But there are more mechanism working in our favor than you realize. The core values of most of these people are they same as yours, their targeting system is just mis-calibrated.
Seconded with all of this. If I had to sum this all up in a sentence, most neolib true-believers haven't had life really punch them in the face yet. All anyone needs to propagandize around that is curate what makes it into their sight, so most neolibs in their neolib world have only really gotten exposed to neolib reaffirmations and aren't ready to hear the whole, "Everything you know is wrong and you have been lied to that thoroughly." Madonna's Material Girl through and through.

Let's take trooning. A few of them have probably known some troons too... and they merely see some special flower who needs medication to fully bloom properly. The unsung villain there is the push to pathologize all human behaviors instead of understanding that people can be "normal" while doing abnormal things. Instead of realizing that kids at a young age sometimes will in fact experiment with the other gender role and then grow out of it or that some behaviors are more unisex than we think (What's the real difference between an action figure and a doll anyhow?), they got bullshat by soyence into thinking, "Oh! This means little Timmy might be a little Tina! I need to change my behavior to let them grow naturally!" All without realizing that this information being told to Mommy and Daddy is in and of itself not actually organic in the first place, so they don't know they're grooming their kid, even as they're grooming their kid. To them, it's just basic mental health practice.

It's one of the reasons I'm more hopeful. The lies just can't stand anymore. Whether you're in the US or UK or Germany now with that US tourist who got stabbed in Dresden I think who's made the news, the cracks aren't really deniable and the sheep can't be kept in their hallucinatory pens anymore. So eventually a bunch of propagandized to people have to come to the light that, "Everything you know is wrong." And then they get redpilled.
 
I used to think Tay Tay was attractive, but I really thought about it and she’s probably the type of woman to just want to lay in bed while you try your hardest the entire time and she keeps complaining about being too sweaty because the AC ain’t kicking in fast enough. Then like, nothing exciting happens and afterwards, you have to awkwardly ring the maid to get you an ice water in bed who stares at both of you with disgust mixed with pity.

As I get older, I’m starting to realize that slutty milfs who work office jobs all day and finally get one night at the bar because their ex-husbands are watching the kids tonight are the ultimate prizes.

One day, I hope we as Americans can relay this life lesson to the gooners, the e-thot addict, the celebrity fixated, and the v-tuber lonely.
 
Ever wonder what havoc would ensue if Black Lives Matter types took charge of the USA’s largest city? You are about to find out:

Democratic mayoral frontrunner Zohran Mamdani and his comrades at the Democratic Socialists of America want to wipe out the enforcement of all misdemeanor offenses…
1756228909806.webp

Misdemeanors in New York include theft of up to $1,000, drug possession, assault without a weapon, and drunk driving. These would be effectively legal.

“For all of the working class to achieve collective liberation we must constrain, diminish, and abolish the carceral forces of the state — from prisons and police themselves, to their manifestations in all forms throughout society,” according to the national party’s latest platform, adopted in 2021. …

The DSA has also pushed to slash arrests, gut prosecutors’ budgets, abolish cash bail and all forms of pre-trial detention, scrap electronic monitoring, and end imprisonment for parole violations.

The rabidly anti-cop Mamdani is on board:
Mamdani, a Queens assemblyman and member of the NYC chapter of the DSA and its endorsed mayoral candidate, has questioned the purpose of prisons and repeatedly called to roll back punishment on so-called “non-violent offenses” – both as an Albany lawmaker and in his Gotham mayoral campaign.
1756229029103.webp 1756229038037.webp

What is a nonviolent offense? Potentially, any offense:
“What violent crime is – is defined by the state,” [Madmani] said at a 2021 protest outside the Manhattan DA’s office to nix cash bail and shut down Rikers – a promise he’s still making. ” Violence is an artificial construction,” he said at the time.

Apply the broken windows theory to see where his policies will quickly lead.

If elected mayor, Mamdani can’t change state laws, but does have influence over how they’re enforced. He could force the NYPD to deprioritize certain arrests or pressure district attorneys not to prosecute certain cases – much like Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg did in his controversial “day one” memo telling staff to go soft on armed robberies and drug dealing.

Neoliberalism has rotted NYC to the core. Mamdani is likely to win in a blowout. Any normal people left in the city are advised to get out immediately.

FOOLS! They're making the classic blunder of socialism by not solving people's material conditions first! They need to give everything FREE first, THEN do away with criminal repercussions. Gosh. Everyone knows crime only exists because people are denied basic goods and services.
 
The Shitposter they got running the various gov twitter accounts is having the time of his life

God damn that is a deep cut right wing dog-whistle.


And that was the real issue: Cracker Barrels looks was the last, unique Americona place around. We don't need another sterile Denny's, people wanted a place with some flair that looked different.
"You're blackpilling? DHS is heatmap posting and you're blackpilling?"

"CBP is gemposting and you're blackpilling?"
 
Because it looks like shit. Have you ever visited a Cracker Barrel? The place has a motif and if the logo was sterilized it means everything else will be as well.

I'm in the "it's stupid people are making this into a thing" camp. Never liked Cracker Barrel, though I wouldn't have been as harsh as @CaliforniaRaisin has been. It's foolish to get riled up over something so ultimately meaningless and dumb.
I own a bass guitar and an amp, neither of which have any screens and will work so long as I have electricity. I suppose it's possible that they make me do jumping jacks and yell "MCDONALDS!" to get my electricity but, by then, we'd be in fedposting territory.
Learning to play an instrument is good and productive, though grown adults shouldn't be playing with literal kids' stuff (video games) at all. I had an epiphany earlier this decade how dumb I looked sitting there with a Gamecube controller in my hand in my early 20's. Got rid of all my video game stuff very shortly after that and don't regret a thing.
They literally live in a different universe.
Many Boomers who are retired literally live among lawyers in homes/neighborhoods we'll never be able to afford. The existence of their generation and their Silent Gen parents are the main reason why I theorize Social Security is going to collapse within a decade, give or take five years. Especially since a lot of people in their 20's can't find jobs.
 
Every time I come to this thread I am more and more convinced that it always was just a bunch of 50yo boomers who use it as virtual hangout/complaining spot behind their wives' backs, discussing news being only a cover-up.

"God dang those stupid woke brats and their anti-deportation protests, bet they didn't protest when our savior Trump stoped them Tick-tocks form getting banned. They're all spoiled, back in my day I had to work 22h a day for a Walkman! Rememba Walkman? My wife still touched me back then, good times."
Fascinating, tell us more about you cool, and detached, and uncaring you are Mr Soystein.

(Smokes weed)

Gen X deserves the rope.

The ONLY fucking reason we don't have something like this right now is because, thankfully, there aren't enough people saying "OMG. WHO. CARES".

The technology is in place, 100% ready, to shove a billboard up your ass at any time. Thankfully, people pushing back against shit like this is the only way to prevent it and to get it removed. Your mentality is what corporations wish every customer had.
Smart TVs have the capability to do all kinds of things. One of the major reasons they don't want to sell "dumb" TVs anymore is that they absolutely want a pre-made audience if they ever go this route.. They also could, with a simple software patch, set themselves up as billboards. Not watching anything? The TV will display silent ads until you wake it back up. Roku already does something similar with a "Cityscape" screensaver before powering off the TV -- the cityscape has some ads on the billboards.

This shit could get much worse if we don't constantly push back on it.

Burn the city, there is no use of it anymore

This was the rumor for years and still is, she's all about PDA but does not like sex and this is the real reason why she has relationship issues (before she dipped into the liberalism and could also be because she's a lesbo herself). But now that she's getting up there she will be this dude's beard and they'll probably IVF some surrogates.


Anway, the important stuff, RFK says in September he will reveal the origins of furries:
