The GQP Thread: I'm even sick of that fuck's number and, anyway, he's gone (for now)

He is not the one who needs the stiff sentence. He is a Soy Boy Basement Dweller who got caught up in a conspiracy theory cause he needed friends.

Any former military person should get the harshest sentence possible. LEO? Absolutely. People who who assaulted cops and were real threats? Throw the book at them. D&D Guy who has a gluten allergy? Let him deal with gen pop for 3.5 years he won't know what hit him!
 
And if this guy's getting almost four years for just being a dipshit, then those still waiting for trial, the Proud Boys and the Oath Keepers, are bound to be seeing a lot more.

I'm ok with his sentence. The guys who went there in body armor and tactical gear, the ones who were planning and communicating, acting in organized tactics, the ones beating on cops, they need the book thrown at them. Those are the ones you need to be making examples of.
 
Some of them are also whining they are having CRT shoved down their throat...

Speaking of that...I notice that no one really seems to be whining about that anymore.

Just like Satanic Panic back in the day, we won't even be talking about it by this time next year. The Fash will have moved on to whatever new conspiracy blather about indoctrinating kids that the rubes believe, and that will get them elected in 2022.

Great article by David Brooks. Regardless of your opinion on him, this is still a good read.

It's a great article.

Another speaker, Amanda Milius, is the daughter of John Milius, who was the screenwriter for the first two Dirty Harry films and Apocalypse Now. She grew up in L.A. and wound up in the Trump administration. She argued that America needs to get back to making self-confident movies like The Searchers, the 1956 John Ford Western. This was an unapologetic movie, she asserted, about how Americans tamed the West and how Christian values got brought to “savage, undeveloped land.”

This is about as dumb a reading of The Searchers as it’s possible to imagine. The movie is actually the modern analogue to the Oresteia, by Aeschylus. The complex lead figure, played by John Wayne, is rendered barbaric and racist while fighting on behalf of westward pioneers. By the end, he is unfit to live in civilized society.


But David Brooks should know: this is all his fault. His people -- he himself -- winked at this strain of fascism in their party because it was convenient, and his legacy is now a genuinely virulent Naziism has control of 45% of America. Take a bow, you cynical fuck.

And here's the thing. He identifies these people as "smart," but they aren't. They may be educated but they're just as stupid as the hayseeds back home. Just because you've read Edmund Burke and Aristotle doesn't mean you have touched the deeply rooted intelligence within those traditions. Prep schools are full of dumb fucks who have read the Great Books and will still wind up on Wall Street or K Street.
 
was it cillizza? Because it's the most cilizza an article could be. And i'm not going to give them clicks.

You hit on the problem. It was a clickbait headline, not a terrible article. The theme of the article was not that American's haven't seen the benefit of the infrastructure bill. The general theme was this: The infrastructure bill was an historic bill; It is going to take years for Americans to really see or feel the true benefits of it; Because of that, the Biden Admin needs to aggressively market to the American people how truly great the bill is and what it will do, they haven't really done that to date and thus far in the administration they haven't been that great at marketing any of their accomplishments.
 
MSNBC has been kicked from the Rittenhouse trial. What a bunch of assclowns we have in the media and in the government. Is their any institution in America right now worth a pile of shit?
