Comments are worth reading to see what a curated comments feed looks like 😛

There’s a lesson here:

1) First they gradually make you very angry through making your vote not count and feeding you Shit Sandwiches and solemnly informing you that you’re getting Caviar and should be Grateful.

2) When you finally lose it (e.g. Jan 6) because there is nothing else left to do, the full Moralizing (note I did not say Moral) Power of the State and its organs comes down on you like a ton of bricks.

3) Then an impression is created of everybody else piling on in righteous anger and outrage.

Jan 6 was just a small taste of this.

FWIW, Apple Daily is a raucous scandal sheet, but it’s all the Man in the Street has had speaking for him for many years now. Doubt it will see out the year.

It’s as if a Speeding Dos Passos crashed into the back of a busload of creative writing students headed home from a trip to the 1964 World’s Fair.

Well that’s very interesting indeed. I can type this word… but if I type the O..n word my post doesn’t happen.

Curious.

@Neo Don’t you find that interesting?

If it was actual Oppo Oppo wouldn’t have 319K Subscribers, would be shadow-banned or banned outright.”

Hmm…..OK then, pure fakery, because you say so. They spent 3 hours discussing their phenomenon with Joe Rogan today, but you follow your excellent instincts. I’ll think I’ll at least watch a few more segments, and hopefully catch the Rogan show.

Zaphod:

I looked up the review in the “Harvard Crimson” which was, needless to say, negative with the usual broad smears.

The comments were much more to the point and took the Harvard faculty to task. As with so many other woke pontifications about anti-racism, 1619, Wuhan flu, transgender, 2020 election, 1/6 insurrection, I think the citizenry are still keeping their heads down, but not buying the elite wisdom.
