Shutting down the only dedicated politics website in your portfolio right before the 2020 election, one of the most consequential of our lifetime, kicks into high gear. Essentially shutting down the second-most highly trafficked website in your portfolio because one out of every twenty five posts rankles you. I’m not

Splinter was a damn good website.

Quit it with the video-only articles. 

Off topic, but sometimes I sing your screen name when I am by myself.

This is the apex of anti-progressivism: let’s drag people for making progress.

Broken clock.

Yeah, I sure as shit don’t want to die for it and I feel like nobody else wants to either.

These sorts will be very, very few - but they will the the ones who dictate the narrative. They will be the ones who blow up people and shoot up the Libs. They will be the ones who bring our law and order system crashing down.

Yeah, they’re gonna get Ruby Ridged and suddenly it won’t be fun to be a macho survivalist anymore.
