Does anyone care that Zohran Mamdani is paying $2,300/mo in rent? Not really. Does anyone care that his rent is taxpayer subsidized because it was intended for those who don't have a 6-figure income with mega-millionaire parents as a safety net? You bet.

Leftists suddenly pretending to be upset about Cuomo's covid response is rich. He did everything they wanted! The models told him healthy young people were gonna overrun hospitals so he acted. There are 20 year old leftists wearing masks and face shields who still believe this.

Urban life shouldn't be for everyone. Ppl who want to steal from stores without consequence, eg

Really getting tired that the political preferences of the downwardly mobile children of the upper middle class who graduated college from 2012-2024 are dictating the direction of the Democratic Party. There are always exceptions, but a common theme emerges. 1/

Reminder: basically all of Taiwan, Hong Kong, Japan, and South Korea caught covid. Thr vast majority of those people did so while masks were mandated and strictly enforced, both legally and socially.

A lot of the most annoying prog/left views stem from this idea that nothing is in your control. Crime in your city? Totally random. It's no use enforcing that law or even having police. Academic success or failure? Also random. No use having gifted or accelerated programs.

No masks? In the middle of a pandemic???

Surely making a faux-macho Trump parody Twitter account that calls people gay as an insult will fix this

Yes, COVID lockdowns and mandates demolished societal norms leading to increased crime, decreasing quality of life and rampant drug use But at least those policies were also completely ineffective at stopping COVID. Always good to have policies with huge harms and zero benefits.

I'm going to start saving every example I can find of this weird trend where you make fun of leftoids and they immediately start monologuing about how they have friends and go outside all the time

Rain on your wedding day? Chronic covid. Free ride but you already paid? Chronic covid. Black fly in your chardonnay? Chronic covid.

Breaking news: hypochondriacs more likely to be spotted at therapy office. Next up: shocking news from a bloke who works at the cancer ward - apparently everyone has cancer!

As I've said before, the refusal of normie tenured faculty to speak up because they were afraid of being called bad names by first year grad students caused so much damage to academic institutions.

Just got back from a country bar. The kind of place truckers, farmers, and the working class go. A Newsom meme came on TV. The local gun store owner said to his friend, “You know what? He ain’t so bad. Can’t believe I’m saying this but Ol’ Frisco Gav’s got my vote in 2028.”

Banning phones in school is the bare minimum for a functional education environment. A school that does not ban phones asks every student to perpetually win a war of will against devices optimized to seize and hold their attention. Make it easy for people to rise above whims.

This attitude inevitably makes people isolated and lonely. The therapy-culture idea that you should cut off any relationship once it gets even a bit difficult is so toxic. All meaningful relationships are sometimes draining. We need each other!

They can't be homophobic because homophobia = prejudice against homosexuals + power. Since African Americans lack institutional power they can't be homophobic.

A lot of people just use therapy-culture and "self care" as an excuse to be selfish.

Taylor Lorenz, the poster child for being too online, is upset that kids can't spend their entire lives glued to their phones. Surprise, surprise!
