why would i get in a raging political argument with my family when I can get in a raging political argument with the online accounts with whom I have a parasocial relationship?

I cough like this all the time now

what's israel?

city-data.com has to be one of the most racist sites on the internet

they're not poisoning the blood they're just invading our white nation

do you have any sources for this stuff? Because my understanding was that the post was extremely unreliable until the late 1700s, and while the news was there, it's availability fluctuated based on who was in charge, and in any case, regular periodicals weren't really widespread until the improvement of the post and the road system into the 1700s, and their circulation remained small until the steam press in 1814. And most of those improvements were happening in England first with France usually following. So the rest of Europe would've been behind (not sure about other parts of the world).

A lot of social media reminds me of what the world must've been like in the seventeenth or eighteenth century or something. Like your main source of news of the outside world is some random merchant who is "just passing through." Like, if he tells you oh Louis XIV eats children to prolong his life so that he can stay king, what are you gonna do, look it up? You can't even read and have never left the manor, meanwhile he's been to Lyon so surely he knows what he's talking about.

Now instead of passersby spinning long yarns that aren't based in anything resembling reality we have influencers just spitting out whatever thought crosses their mind and we all absorb it because they have 700k followers and you have like 80 so surely they know what they're talking about. Even some of our favorite leftist influencers - I mean who the hell are some of these people? Some of them have no reason to be considered an authority. Why don't I start making video essays on youtube or something? I have more of a claim on being an "authority" on socialism than like most of the people I listen to...

The original tweet is not even correct in any way. Ilhan Omar is not from Puntland, she's from Mogadishu. Her father is from the area of Puntland. But Puntland didn't even exist on a map until 1998 - when Ilhan Omar was 17 years old. No one in her family, including her, ever lived in a place called "Puntland." Her father was basically from the area that became Puntland, but never lived in it at any time it was referred to as "Puntland."

Furthermore, the Puntland flag is from 2009 - 14 years after Ilhan Omar's family was in the United States. Not even her father has any ties to that flag, its extremely modern. Chuds will just find anything to get worked up over.

edit: Puntland didn't even exist until 3 years after Ilhan Omar's family was in the United States

edit 2: furthermore, I'd love to see EndWokeness' source for "largest Somali population in the west" because I don't think that's true either. I'm pretty sure London has more Somali people than Minnesota.

hit or miss, I guess she doesn't miss huh

But did you take into account that there is at least 24 hours between each win?

They’re right, except Wednesday and Avatar 2 is also fascist/reactionary art 😤

I wasn’t saying it should be about men. “Women in 20s and 30s more likely to die than any generation since wwii” surprised me since usually men have the worst life expectancy prospects. A quick reading didn’t clear up for me if this was any generation, or any generation [of women]. Though as someone pointed out I missed where they said the report is only dealing with women.
