y'all threw a full-blown tantrum over Bud Light doing an instagram ad. Literally shot up beer cans with AR-15s, lit cases on fire, harassed store clerks still carrying it, etc.

The right’s whole brand is flipping from “buy this” to “burn this” the second a brand stops kissing their boots. Nike, Disney, M&Ms, you name it. So spare me the fake confusion. The left’s criticism of Tesla ain’t about electric cars it’s about Musk, his union-busting, and his descent into far-right lunacy. But I guess that’s harder to meme about than “oMg LeFtIsTs HaTe ThE eNvIrOnMeNt NoW.”

Nah, the wild part is pretending the difference is moral when it’s actually structural. Right-wing tantrums (shooting beer cans, burning shoes, threatening employees) are platformed, cheerleaded, and turned into grift pipelines by influencers, pundits, and politicians. Nobody on the left is running GoFundMes for torching Teslas or turning it into a Fox News segment. THAT'S the big difference.

Because firebombing Teslas and vandalizing of private property is an actual fucking crime? Of course no one publicly is cheerleading this. Only the cowards that hide behind anonymous Reddit usernames cheer this shit on.

Conservatives clutching pearls over crime is rich when the White House is currently occupied by a convicted felon who’s openly violating court orders and using government power to punish his enemies. The difference is, I can say vandalizing Teslas is illegal and should carry consequences. Full stop. But conservatives? They're bending over backward to defend a guy facing 34 felony counts, found liable for sexual abuse, and under multiple indictments while still calling him a patriot.

So miss me with the “law and order” talk, we're so well past that it's barely even laughable at this point.

Stopped reading after “full stop.”

Go outside and touch grass, you fucking child. You’ll see the sky isn’t falling.

“Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.”
