Fake Social Media
Michael Stuart Kelly replied to Michael Stuart Kelly's topic in Persuasion Techniques
SCOTUS is hearing oral arguments about Social Media getting censorship instructions from the government. Then this beauty popped. You have to hear it to believe it. Kentaji Brown Jackson has no business being on the bench in the United States of America. In Communist China or Cuba, maybe. But not in the USA. I wonder what the procedure is to impeach her.

Tara Smith - new book dropping this summer
Michael Stuart Kelly replied to Strictlylogical's topic in News
S, These are on my to-do list. After reading almost everything Rand wrote, there is a little voice in the back of my mind that keeps wondering if the effort to read a book explaining what Rand meant ethics-wise will be a productive use of my time. I mean, Rand was clear from what I understood. I even adopted it as a worldview Also, there is that academic thing I do not value--not at all--due to the tribalism and elitism and agenda-mongering in higher education. I'm not trying to be a snob. These things cause a subconscious resistance in me to reading her books. But I will get to them. Hell, if I could go through parts of two of Binswanger's books (The Biological Basis of Teleological Concepts, and How We Know: Epistemology on an Objectivist Foundation), her books should be a breeze. Incidentally, I am no fan of the Binswanger books. We can go into why later if you want. I do like the work he did on joining ITOE to the workshop, though. Also, I have added so much more to my base in Rand, stuff from evolutionary biology--especially brain development, neuroscience, modern psychology, behavioral science, and story, I find books that derive their arguments from Rand as their starting point and presenting themselves as universal are limited for where I am going intellectually. Once again, I'm not being a snob, you plebeian. Michael -
It's worse than I thought. Look at this. Politico says having a good time at a Trump rally is the sign of a dictator normalizing his autocratic ways. Note: This pearl of wisdom is written by Michael Kruse, a senior staff writer at Politico and Politico Magazine. In on the Joke: The Comedic Trick Trump Uses to Normalize His Behavior His supporters love it. Critics call it a sign of his autocratic tendencies. Sorry, for some reason this does not embed like the other articles. So you have to click on the headline to read it. But here is a bit of it: I love that phrase: "... the mirth masks the menace." Menace for whom? Hmmmm?... Do you smell panic? I do. Besides, the people on the left love to use humor to humiliate those they do not like. But they themselves can't stand it if they are being laughed at by a huge audience they cannot dismiss. And an audience of voters who are throwing their sorry asses out of power is an audience they cannot dismiss. Even if I didn't feel like laughing, I have to laugh. This dude Kruse forgot to say that laughter is a symbol of racism and white supremacy. But never fear, it's coming. It's all they've got, poor things... What dorks... LOL... Michael

I wish I could say I look down my nose at this, but I don't. And I have conducted Beethoven, Mahler, Rachmaninoff, Mozart... What the hell is wrong with me? LOL... What a life... Michael -
The Deep State is a joke when they get panicked. All this lawfare against Trump is just that, panic and a joke. When the Deep State is incompetent, it has no equal. And Trump, himself, is having a good time with it. For those who don't know the backstory of the following clip. Fani Willis is the DA who has been prosecuting Trump in Georgia. She was moving right along until someone found out she hired her lover, embezzled funds and did some other do-nasties. So there was a hearing. They put her on the stand to explain herself and she was so arrogant, she turned off many on her own side. When they put her lover-boy-prosecutor on the stand, you get the clip below. They asked him if he had ever gone to a cabin with Fani. He literally took 15 seconds on the stand to answer. At any rate, with political maneuverings, Fani got to stay on the case, but lover-boy had to resign. Now, this case is all over except the yelling and tying up loose formality ends and everybody trying to cover their asses. Meanwhile, Trump shoved a big fat middle finger in their faces. He posted the following video meme on Truth Social. LOL... Michael

Ukraine and Endless War for Profit
Michael Stuart Kelly replied to Michael Stuart Kelly's topic in 4 - Politics
Alex Jones just came out and said the prospect of WW3 has been dealt a blow. Germany ain't playing and that throws a bucket of cold water on Macron and other loonies who don't mind blowing up the planet. It's so odd seeing Alex say the world is OK. Dayaamm! Michael- 1,615 replies

The more I study Bitcoin, the more I am 1,000% into it. And I see a huge opportunity. Explaining it in terms people can understand. The video below is cute, but it's based on truth. This is how the public in general responds to all the noise about Bitcoin. LOL... Michael

Tucker on X (Twitter)

Tucker with Rand Paul talking about TikTok bill. Michael -
On the other hand, Lara Trump is having the RNC hire Scott Pressler. You remember Scott? He's the guy who went around cleaning up trash-infected neighborhoods. Then he went out and personally registered more Republicans than the RNC did for years, just because he believed in what he was doing. Scott has super-long hair. He's gay. And he's not a big friend of sharia law (radical Muslims loathe him). Nobody on the MAGA side gives a crap about any of that. They love him for his belief in America and competence and willingness to act. In case you don't remember what Scott looks like, here ya' go. Scott was at the J6 rally, but did not go into the Capitol. I bet the Predator Class toadies at the DOJ are sick at heart they didn't arrest him. And I bet they will try now. If they do, that will generate even more votes for Trump and MAGA candidates. Michael
