Chips 'n' Sausage

Well, apparently I'm a diplomacy monger now 😄

So Alex Jones, of all people, is pro-government now? Strange times indeed.

Reverse Clue, guess the victim: Stalin's henchman, pickaxe, Mexico City.

I'm generally against state-sponsored prisons and violent punishment other than self-defense, so I think for her performance in Congress when being questioned, Pam Bondi should be exiled and never be tolerated again on American soil.

A lecture full of fun, if sad, anecdotes about monopoly, competition, regulation, and a little government violence. Consider this tidbit: Imagine an airplane built in 1920 and compare it to one built in 1970.

Believe it or not, right wing authoritarianism is not the only possible answer to left wing authoritarianism. And those who say that "we" must oppress the people and force them to think our way in order for "them" to be unable to accumulate power is the same type of narrow-minded aggressive power-grabbing of which you accused "them" to begin with. Or to put it differently: "He who fights monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster. And if you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you" - Friedrich Nietzsche
