It’s a mess over here in the USA. And, as I warned in my op-ed on The Angry Dogs, it’s about to get very ugly. Men like Trump, Musk, and Thiel don’t give up power willingly. This will be settled in the streets. open.substack.com/pub/mattppea...

Trump has hypnotized half of natural-born American citizens into calling the other half "you people." Nothing he has done has brought us together as a people. All he does is stoke division. One does not "make America great again" while cleaving it in two; that's not a thing.

The unwise confuse being a nice person with being a good person. In reality, it’s almost impossible to be both simultaneously.

New: Low-info voters, who put Trump in the White House, now look even more anti-Trump than high-info voters, and give Dems bigger margins on the generic ballot. 1 out of 3 Trump voters who can't name the party in charge of Congress now back Dems for 2026. www.gelliottmorris.com/p/poll-low-i...

Public Service announcement: do NOT send your ballots by mail! Trump’s people control the postal service and they are already “losing” and returning ballots. If you want to be certain your vote is counted, drop your ballot off in person to your local Bureau of Elections.

Immigration is a bullshit issue. There, I said it.

It’s time to undo this mess. The election is on November 3. Register to vote!

I see all these yahoos in the business world who can’t send a simple email without using AI. If you need AI to do your job, you are replaceable by AI. Without critical thinking and actual skills, you’re just a meat API. Eventually you will be considered a meat bottleneck that slows things down.

Pennsylvania’s extreme sports: • Walking along a rural highway at night wearing all black clothing • Trespassing on private land during deer season to yell at hunters • Dirt bike wheelies between lanes on the highway during rush hour • Wearing a Browns or Cowboys jersey • Living next to a creek

Sitting here thinking and it just dawned on me that MAGA is literally nothing more than a pedophile rights movement.

NAFO: IT'S GO TIME Ukraine took out the Yandex bot farm. They did the heavy lifting, now NAFO must carry the baton across the finish line. There's a propaganda vacuum right now. Let's boost every Democrat running for Congress and bombard social media with anti-MAGA messaging.

The Kremlin intelligence psyop that has been poisoning American politics for decades is literally burning. Ukraine removed all the Russian bots on social media just in time for the US midterm election. Ukraine really is defending the entire free world! Thank you, Ukraine! 💛💙 x.com/youranoncent...

I'm ready I'm ready for what's next I'm ready to duck I'm ready to dive I'm ready to say I'm glad to be alive I'm ready I'm ready for the putsch

Morons, almost by definition, cannot see around corners. The Trump administration is too stupid to understand the damage they're causing, and they're definitely not smart enough to see the likely repercussions of their actions.

Is this what it's like to vote in a Republican primary?

Well, would you look at that…Trump is president again, and another election that the GOP will lose is upon us, so here comes another human-designed pathogen leaking from a bio-weapon laboratory in an authoritarian state. Is this the martial law pretext he’s been looking for?

Why is human labor taxed while artificial intelligence “labor” isn’t? We all forfeit part of our paychecks to taxes. But AI firms steal our labor for training data, take the jobs of the people who produced it, then pay NOTHING into the system? This is thoroughly unconscionable.

I wish AI could do something truly useful, like digging everything out of landfills and breaking it down to the elements for recycling. Imagine if it deconstructed trash into pure carbon, iron, hydrogen, etc. Instead, it’s running disinformation ops on Twitter to elect fascists.

The problem corroding American society today is that old people no longer think about the welfare of young people. Our society has become selfish and short-sighted. “A society grows great when old men plant trees whose shade they know they shall never sit in.” -Greek Proverb

Why is it that all the MAGA bros who are terrified of being replaced by immigrants have no problem with being replaced by AI?

Imagine sitting there while AI does your heaviest cognitive tasks for you. Now imagine being happy about your purposelessness and getting vicarious joy from a machine’s creativity or problem-solving rather than your own. This is the intellectual equivalent of a cuckold fetish.

🚨 EXCLUSIVE: Sen. Ron Wyden says the DOJ and FBI withheld a secret interview with a banker tied to Jeffrey Epstein from the files released to the public. And he says there may be more.

I’m surprised MAGA doesn’t appreciate Ukraine’s brutally efficient methods of dealing with illegal immigrants.

Hey, do you guys remember when we were younger and we thought new technology was cool and it would constantly improve our lives? Man, were we fuckin’ stupid.

From the Silicon Valley geniuses who brought you endless screen time and a sedentary life devoid of human interaction comes… ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE! That’s right, they’ve outsourced the last meaningful parts of being human to a machine! Wow! What’ll they think of next?

I am so sick of people in the business world using AI to send emails for them. I do not want to read a verbose 750 word slop response when what I actually need is maybe three goddamn sentences from a knowledgeable human being who can actually think. Waste of my fucking time.

I fucking hate Democrats, yet I’ll be voting straight Democrat this year. That’s how bad things are.

I believe in: free markets, low taxes, less regulation, private property, and free trade. Therefore, I support: no tariffs, no public ownership of private companies, and I want free movement of people, goods, and labor across borders. That’s why MAGA calls me a “leftist.”

The Trumpers on Twitter who are calling us commies want to: nationalize industry, issue $5000 wealth redistribution checks, build an iron curtain on our southern border, centrally plan the economy with tariffs, start gulags for dissidents, be allies with China and North Korea…

MAGA influencers selling us on voting Republican in 2026: “High gas prices and outrageous corruption are small prices to pay for a pointless new war and the world’s biggest pedophilia scandal! Don’t let the Dems win or they’ll end our crime spree and give you health insurance!”

Pleasant surprise: the Snoop Dogg wine from the gas station is actually not bad!

Seen on Reddit: “I didn't know I had to be a millionaire to have the life my parents had on 60 grand.”

I never served in the military, but I’ve been on enough camping trips to know that MREs come in two flavors: diarrhea and constipation.

Times are hard in the United States right now. Americans are suffering. I was watching a TikTok video where this white collar worker was saying he could only afford to eat Goldfish crackers and water this week until he gets paid, and this was the first comment I saw.

Stop eating octopuses.. A marine biologist films this octopus changing colors while dreaming and it’s spectacular

The tide has turned. MAGA is now losing the culture war it started.

We call this a concentration camp, your honor.

Recently, on Facebook or Twitter, whenever I've posted my interpretation of something happening in the news, invariably some yahoo comes along and says, "well, actually," and then posts a big bowl of slop from ChatGPT that says EXACTLY WHAT I SAID, but in 500 extra words. We've reached Peak Retard.

We are so fucked.
