That’s freaking awesome. Via this site, Odd Stuff Magazine, that apparently every blogger in the world knows about but me.
And probably Ace.
So is it illusion that it’s no war in Ukraine or is it delusion?
An area near the industrial zone came under fire. As a result of explosions of shells on Levanevskoho Str., Soborna Str., and Lermontova Str., eight houses were damaged by shrapnel. Rooftops, walls, and windows suffered considerable damage,” the press service of the National Police in Donetsk region reported.
Delusion, they’re surely not hiding it. I do not think the spring is going to be fun in much of the world.
Delusional thinking knows no limits!
European leaders get together in Munich to discuss the invasion of a part of Europe!
The Munich Agreement was a settlement permitting Nazi Germany’s annexation of portions of Czechoslovakia along the country’s borders mainly inhabited by German speakers, for which a new territorial designation “Sudetenland” was coined…
Because the state of Czechoslovakia was not invited to the conference,…
Oh wait, wrong Munich Conference.
Foreign ministers of the Normandy Four have started negotiations in Munich on settlement of the situation in Donbas, according to an UNIAN correspondent…
The talks are being held on the sidelines of the Munich Security Conference with the participation of Foreign Ministers of Ukraine Pavlo Klimkin, Russia Sergey Lavrov, Germany Sigmar Gabriel, and France Jean-Marc Ayrault,
Eh, at least this time they invited Czechoslovakia…Ukraine. They’re still gonna be betrayed, but they’ll be able to watch it in real time.
Delusion or illusion?
CBS News has learned that on Thursday, an angry President Trump called CIA Director Mike Pompeo and yelled at him for not pushing back hard enough against reports that the intelligence community was withholding information from the commander-in-chief.
Every report about Trump from any minitrue outlet should be considered a lie until proven stupid, how could they know he “yelled”? I wouldn’t dispute that Trump called him and took him to task for that bit of assholery, but I sincerely doubt he “yelled at him”. So… is that story delusion or illusional?
Scott Adams says, Delusional!
When reality violates your ego that rudely, you either have to rewrite the movie in your head to recast yourself as an idiot, or you rewrite the movie to make yourself the hero who could see what others missed. Apparently the Huffington Post chose to rewrite their movie so Trump is a deranged monster, just like they warned us. That’s what they see. This isn’t an example of so-called “fake” news as we generally understand it. This is literally imaginary news. I believe the Huffington Post’s description of the press conference is literally what they saw.
Yup. They cannot admit, especially to themselves, that they’re idiots.
I’m going with both illusional and delusional on this, and more!
The Northern Arizona University Political Science department recently hosted a “Specter of Fascism” event at which professors repeatedly compared Donald Trump to Hitler and the Nazis.
“The Specter of Fascism” was a panel discussion featuring six NAU professors with specialties covering politics and international affairs, women and gender studies, and criminology.
It’s attempted indoctrination by delusional fools pushing an illusion.
I agree with this bit though
“The material and psychological conditions that made it possible for the Nazis to mobilize masses around an ideologically constructed enemy are the very same conditions in which our politics is unfolding today
Except I’d say the people who are busily rioting around the country are the incipient fascists.
Now, Trump the Fascist is an illusion they’re trying to create, but their idiocy hampers that. Let’s continue the quote about how the conditions are the same as for the Nazis.
explaining that “these material conditions are a capitalist, economic, and bourgeois social world in which private gain…you know, ruthlessly competitive world is celebrated and where economic suffering combine with deep social isolation is the condition we live in.”
Ummmmm, that’s the commie revolution idiot lefties have been masturbating to since Marx first thought it up, the rise of fascism was an entirely different deal.
Okay, I’ve heard some stupid things from Bill Gates, but this is the most disingenuous and delusional thing I’ve ever heard.
Bill Gates, the co-founder of Microsoft and world’s richest man, said in an interview Friday that robots that steal human jobs should pay their fair share of taxes.
“Right now, the human worker who does, say, $50,000 worth of work in a factory, that income is taxed and you get income tax, Social Security tax, all those things,” he said. “If a robot comes in to do the same thing, you’d think that we’d tax the robot at a similar level.”
Disingenuous because he knows the people who run the robots will be taxed so the people buying the products will pay the taxes, delusional because… that’s about the stupidest fucking thing I’ve ever heard.
The worst part? Nancy Pelosi, Paul Ryan, Mitch McConnell and Chuck fucking Schumer just got huge boners and they’re not sure why.
I didn’t realize Pat Buchanan was running!
The Church’s legislative body voted last night against a report that calls for continued opposition to same-sex marriage…
Now some clergy have come forward saying they made a mistake when using their voting machines, and that they actually supported their colleagues’ report.
I would bet fifty cents that was supposed to be failure theater. They wanted the vote to be close but they miscounted and screwed it up.
Sticking with gay stuff,
A police veteran with 22 years on the force was told to “tone down” his sexuality if he ever wanted a promotion to lieutenant, according to a discrimination lawsuit.
At first I thought, “I can understand that, women who are cops do not emphasize their femininity so they can intimidate..well…me. Men should not either.”, but then I thought about the fact that he was already a 22 year veteran, that would seem to point out they just don’t like gay cooties.
Everyone knows girls are where cooties come from. I just wish more people would accept that.
The way that book should have ended!
Now, some of you made fun of me for my boycott of Lemur King but, as usual, I was just ahead of my time!
F]eminists are pushing a boycott of Trump wines and Wegmans for selling it. … Since the boycott began the sale of Trump Wines has skyrocketed. [story]
Ivanka Trump’s perfume line shot to the top of Amazon’s bestseller’s list, as the first daughter faces boycott efforts by liberals and supporters counter with a #buyivanka campaign. [story]
A viral video shows a group of women storming into a Nordstrom to cancel their accounts in response to the retailer’s decision to stop selling Ivanka Trump’s fashion brand, promising to shop at Dillard’s instead. [story]
Hah!
The problem is that Veeshir-style boycotts take so much time and effort they’re just not worth it.
In re the Lincoln fiver: this might have been John Wilkes Booth’s last view of the world if only Ford’s theater hadn’t been a gun-free zone.
That is the last thing zombie-John Wilkes Booth saw.
Do you watch the Walking Dead? Cuz if you do, that fiver makes sense.
