Yeah, this is really bad. It's good that El-Sayed distanced himself from it, but I am in awe at how Cenk's left-wing PAC managed to combine antisemitism with transphobia and pitch it as *supporting* the Democrat in this race.

I read the NYT piece earlier, and I had no idea there was a new rape allegation against the president until I saw this thread. The closest the Times got to saying there’s a new allegation was “it largely cites allegations that have already been public.”
The NYT story does not even include the word rape. Not once.

Kind of funny, in an Ancient Greek Hell kind of way, that this guy handed Trump the presidency in 2016, and as a reward Trump is kicking him in the teeth forever. www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...

There is no human on earth more easily or predictably baited than this man.
Trump is BIG MAD about Obama saying the White House now looks like Saddam opened a Cheesecake Factory: "He's not a smart guy. He's not smart at all ... for you to say it's a Cheesecake Factory, that just shows why you were a lousy president"

"Under Brazilian federal law, all legislators have immunity...To run for President, Bolsonaro decided not to run for his Senate seat. Now, after losing the Presidential election, he no longer has legislative immunity when his Senate term expires in January 2027." Very Special Episode of no amnesty
Flávio Bolsonaro had his passport confiscated by the Brazilian fed police as his brother Eduardo told him to flee to the US. He is tied to paramilitary gangs, is being investigated & lost his legislative immunity when he left the Senate to run for president. paydayreport.com/brazilian-fe...

You know...I genuinely wonder if Trump's decline meaning that he sexually harasses men as well as women is going to shake loose any introspection. Probably not, but man...
JD Vance: "We're self-confident men in the Trump/Vance administration. The president has been noticing a lot about the physiques of everybody lately"
Jesse Ventura has been wrong about a great many things but when he's in "I was in fucking Vietnam so who the hell are you to tell me about war" mode he is unbeatable.
Jesse Ventura to Piker: "Here's what pisses me off -- I did 2 tours, 17 months. So did my brother. Southeast Asia. That was at the same time Donald Trump was running and hiding like the coward he is. Why didn't he join us in the Vietnam War? I've heard him talk. He said he should be a general!"

the way people were banging on pots and pans for STEM for like 15 years? maybe we need to be doing that for media literacy
“'You Can See Everything' is a hilarious, thrilling, fascinating, beautiful piece of art. What it certainly is not is a documentary, and it’s dangerous to pretend that it is,” writes Theranos whistleblower Tyler Shultz. https://bit.ly/4Bk2nDJ

"I will give your editorial suggestions the same weight and respect which I have traditionally reserved only for the law..."
Yeah. People seem under the impression that “documentary” means “journalism” which it emphatically does not. Try telling Werner Herzog he doesn’t meet your editorial standards lol. Or Errol Morris!

Sure, man, you’ve got my number. I’m a moron. I’m a windup toy. I’m probably AI. What you’re feeling isn’t anxiety, it’s indignation. That rage is confidence, not insecurity. Very superior, very impressive. Good job, big dog.
yeah the 'let people enjoy things' argument you morons fall back on when you run out of words, like little wind up toys who don't know there's a history of aesthetics. so you're saying that CF is for those of refined taste who - *inclusive* of all classes - are, let me get this right, 'shameless'?
Skill issue. You're rambling about semiotics but you're just talking class. Your rant stinks of the kind of pedestrian tastes that only an overgrown and unobserved sense of shame can produce. Let these people enjoy their Cheesecake Factory in the peace without you jerking off your blues away.
the fake kitsch and gold leaf pomp is a whole other thing, but the semiotics are the same: this is trash for pigs, a treat for those with unrefined taste. it is engineered spectacle meant only to overwhelm your nervous system. sometimes the builders of these palaces are sneering at you, sometimes
