Student protesters were right about segregation in the early '60s, right about Vietnam in the late '60s, right about apartheid in the '80s, right about Iraq in 2003, and right about wealth inequality in 2011. Seems generally bad to side against student movements.

$1,000 is a lot of money, I hope this helps.

Some people say JD Vance was a terrible VC but he's clearly starting to see some return on this investment.

"Look, I put two very, *very* big bets on what turned out to be two very dumb horses and frankly, I just need to rig the track in my favor."

It's not taxes. It's killing antitrust, removing regulatory guardrails, prioritizing corporate profit at the expense of user safety. And for this dude, it's because he scammed a bunch of students, lost credibility, and has nothing left but to suck up to less scrupulous people.

It's time to BOYCOTT the Satanic 2005 episode of The Simpsons Who's with me ?

Ask these motherfuckers what they’ll be sacrificing instead of telling you that you’ll have to.

Person who watched Squid Game and thought the coolest part was how the poor people really wanted that money.

imo it's explainable UHC killer is "anti-capitalist" and a Tucker Carlson/Musk/Thiel follower. They all position themselves as anti-establishment. Of course they don't want to tear down systems of oppression; they want to control them. But plenty of followers don't see that part.

Not exactly a rebuff of the critique that the healthcare industry is increasingly a profit-driven racket, bud! "The real crime is his hypocrisy." Okay, man.

"We're not a bank!" Zuck, you literally tried to launch your own currency.

Thanks for everything, king. Milwaukee Bucks put his number in the rafters. youtu.be/lR378ZnErTQ
