Don’t forget leveraging the crap out of the project by taking out loans, then simply not paying three quarters of the contractors (only paying the ones that would break your kneecaps if you tried to wiggle out of paying them), implicitly leaving out maintenance and fuel costs from the signed version of the contracts

When he said the violent alt-left, maybe he was referring to pictures like this?

This one was especially unhinged, indeed. It would take quite awhile to list all the false equivalencies, immediate contradictions, unproved allegations and so on... alleging the neo nazis with clubs and helmets and shields were in fact the hypothetical alt-left, conflating slave ownership with becoming secessionist

Still don’t get why Paris keeps getting airtime on NPR.

Switch out endorsed for denounced, is it still the same?

What if it was in fact sincere, and she’s a true believer? What if she cannot, in fact, imagine beyond some vague intellectual level of “that must have been bad”, what life was/is like for someone not in her coterie? Like, is she possibly one of those who “don’t see color”?
