Snip from review: [link:https://www.ign.com/articles/the-antisocial-network-review-netflix-4chan-documentary|
From directors Arthur Jones and Giorgio Angelini, The Antisocial Network paints a chilling portrait of how the internet bleeds over into real life and real politics. Chronicling an era when online spaces serve as both escape hatch and a mechanism for control, , the documentary convincingly claims that its not only possible to draw a straight line from 4chan shitposts to the January 6 insurrection, but prudent.

Very informative.
I'm not a financial advisor, but Trump's Truth Social is going public
...and it seems reasonable to short that shit.

"Atrocity" being co-opted against Israel
A quick search shows the Holocaust encyclopedia states "The Nazis claimed that German and foreign Jews were spreading atrocity stories to damage Germany's reputation."
So is the claim in my title evocative of Nazis, just complaining that "atrocity stories" are being used to damage Israel's reputation?
NO. This is war against Hamas. War is atrocious. Both sides can point fingers.
But, "atrocity" plays well on TV, casting one good side vs the evil empire, as if we're all watching Star Wars.
Israelis got raped, murdered, kidnapped, and tortured. NEVER AGAIN is not a conditional. And, by the way Slava Ukraini!
Chat GPT: Donald Trump (Taylor's version)
"Write song in the style of taylor swift that is critical of Donald Trump"
(Verse 1)
In the glow of the White House, there's a man with golden hair,
But his heart's as dark as shadows, spreading falsehoods in the air.
He talks of walls and borders, divides us night and day,
But we're stronger when we're together, love will always find a way.
(Chorus)
Oh, Mr. President, with your tweets so loud,
You're building walls instead of bridges, trying to draw a crowd.
But we see through your charade, your tricks and games so rough,
Oh, Mr. President, enough is enough.
(Verse 2)
You claim to be the voice of the people, but you only speak for some,
Your rhetoric of hatred leaves so many feeling numb.
You silence those who disagree, ignore the cries for change,
But we won't be silenced, we'll stand up, unafraid to rearrange.
(Chorus)
Oh, Mr. President, with your tweets so loud,
You're building walls instead of bridges, trying to draw a crowd.
But we see through your charade, your tricks and games so rough,
Oh, Mr. President, enough is enough.
(Bridge)
We'll march together, hand in hand, with hope in our eyes,
We'll fight for justice, equality, under the clear blue skies.
Your reign will end, and truth will rise, your legacy will tell,
That love and kindness conquer all, and in the end, they always prevail.
(Chorus)
Oh, Mr. President, with your tweets so loud,
You're building walls instead of bridges, trying to draw a crowd.
But we see through your charade, your tricks and games so rough,
Oh, Mr. President, enough is enough.
(Outro)
So let your walls come tumbling down, let freedom ring tonight,
For love will always conquer hate, and truth will always shine bright.
Worse than herpes on your johnson...
Nikki Haley should watch Blazing Saddles on Netflix
Art imitating life doesn't seem to agree that the US has never been a racist country.
Of course, she could also learn from other sources, but maybe Mel Brooks' comedy format is easier for her than reading.
*Then again she must know the truth and just wants to lie about it.
Can we have a sticky "Dumb things Nikki Haley said" thread?
She says so many stupid/ignorant things I'm losing track.
