I liked her song “Stop”. It’s a pity she went fascist.

OTOH, this is Newsweek. Take it with a grain of salt, pending confirmation from a more credible source.

The immovable object of Stolen Valor meets the irresistible force of It’s OK If You’re A Conservative

That may be harder with the boundary between them, the Republican Party and much of the judiciary being so porous. This designation relies largely on the MTGs of today not going to bat for an obscure Swedish far-right group.

If they point out your Jewishness whilst complaining about you ruining their toilet, though, that is a bit sketchy.

Is she planning to retire soon, and thus not concerned about AIPAC money?

Needs a few earlier movements, including Art Deco/jazz moderne, Bauhaus and midcentury modern/googie

When you’re Winnie The Pooh, everything looks like a pot of honey

Some 10% to 27% of Americans, depending on whom you ask, want the full Trump program: mass executions of liberals, bans on contraception and homosexuality, Christian nationalism, the whole Unified Reich thing, and plenty of opportunities to denounce annoying neighbours/coworkers/acquaintances as “woke” and have then taken away. Another 10-20% are low-information voters who “aren’t political”, but know, from news headlines, that things are in some way not going well, and based on vibes, believe it’s time for a change of administration. Being nonpolitical, they don’t care who replaces Biden, as long as it’s someone else, and of course, don’t understand Duverger’s Law and the Electoral College and thus don’t see why it couldn’t be literally anyone else.

Great news! With this level of control, surely the withering away of the state and the communist utopia prophesied by Marx can’t be far away now!

Australia also has a Newcastle (in New South Wales, north of Sydney). Not sure if it has/had coal mines, though I wouldn’t be surprised if it did. Australians using the phrase may be referring to their Newcastle, and even unaware of the English one.

Queen. They’re essentially the Monty Python Team of hard rock.

Think of it as the cool/bad kids’ table in the special-needs school cafeteria

He’d be free to walk, taking a leap into the unknown at the cost of losing almost everything he has. Expecting that sort of heroic act of him is not entirely reasonable.

OTOH, judging by the photos, he does give off Brock Turner/Kyle Rittenhouse vibes. If, having grown up where he did, he turned out to be an aggressive predator, it would not be a huge surprise.

Remember: It’s not paedophilia if it comes from the Bible.

I wonder what the ratio of railways/public transport to roads is.

Sounds philosophically consistent. What could be more pro-life, pro-business and pro-freedom than being in favour of endless cell growth unchecked by cell apoptosis? Come to think of it, not only does curing cancer sound like a socialist anti-prosperity regulatory agenda, killing off cells that would naturally grow is a little too close to abortion.

Dugin was the untouchable son of an elite KGB officer, who, in his teens, got into the habit of flexing his privilege by professing edgy positions that would land anyone else in the gulag (like “National Bolshevism”, a Nazi-Communist fusion), and eventually built a brand from this. He was 4chan before there was a 4chan.

If the entire political ideology you wish to represent is made up of performative cruelty, you need some way to demonstrate that you have sufficient sociopathic sadism for the job.
