SANITY = RESTORED 
You're the 1693 Project professor? You're white and yet you think white people should die. You see, I have no choice but to kill you and you have to be okay with it. It's what you want!
Then some conservative at an airport reading this is like "yep, that's how this all works. if only my woke children knew this."
You're the global warming professor? Curious, you think humans are bad for the environment yet you live in the environment.
I'm gonna guess it's a biting satire where the killer captures the male women's studies professor and is like "You think all men should die, but aren't you a man?" and then the professor is like "Damn I am beat by my own logic."
She's running.
He's an Ur Boomer. Born in '47. Spent time in the military where he claims to have learned how international trade works. Then bought a condo in Hawaii on credit for $10,000. Flipped the condo, made money. Got into real estate. Got rich. He started writing self-help get rich books. His most famous book, Rich Dad Poor Dad, is about how his poor dad's frame of mind kept him poor. His poor dad was a liberal academic who worked for other people. His rich dad was a self-made man and shunned higher education for the hard-knock life in self employment.
He's totally a product of the mid-20th century and the post WWII economic boom but he confuses it for his personal decisions that made him wealthy. Of course most of his money comes from selling books and giving lectures. He's currently in a lot of debt and not very rich because those macroeconomic conditions deteriorated decades ago.
If Trump is a fascist, why aren't Democrats doing everything in their power to stop him? Why aren't they stuffing the court? Why aren't they going after his states? Why aren't they kidnapping him and breaking his knees? If he really is a fascist then there is no excuse for taking the maximum amount of action to stop him. If you could prevent Hitler coming into power by offering free college to Weimar Germany, wouldn't you do it?
"But if we cross the line then we lose something as a country and damage our democracy!"
Okay so if playing by the rules puts us in a situation where fascists can win and non-fascists lose (twice) then what good are the rules? Why are you okay with preserving the status quo if it results in fascism?
Like, at some point, you have to start thinking about stuff further than memes you see on r/WhitePeopleTwitter.
This is what happens to movements that are all theory but no practice. Practices forces you to iron out the specifics and to focus on the goal. If you're just left to academic pondering, then things become more abstract the longer you go without having to actually make it work.
He looks like the guy who would sell you Shrimp Soil if it were a drug.
Folks, the world use to be fully of 30 year olds making music for 15 year olds so giant record companies could sell CDs. Then woke happened.
Imagine spending years playing San Andreas. GTA IV hasn't been announced. Your mind races with the possibilities of a new game. You imagine they're going to do a whole country instead of a few cities. You think of all the mini games, all the weapons, and customization. It is the first "next gen" GTA after all.
Then you have been playing IV for years. GTA V hasn't been announced. Once again your mind races with possibilities. There is no end to the amount of detail it will have, there is nothing you can't do, there is no limit to the map.
Now you've been playing V for years. Here we go again. But there really isn't anything to imagine. You know it's going to be just a bigger map. At least until it gets close to release, where the devs admit the map is the same size as V. They claim it's okay because there's more things to do. But all that means is more things to collect, more so-so mini games.
You've played RDR2 so you know how much detail it could have. You know they'll simulate everything. So there can't be any real surprises. You'll see more wildlife. Your car windows will fog up. Your character will swat mosquitos.
You know the graphics can be just a little better, not like moving from PS2 to PS3. More reflections, slightly better lighting, a little more detail in the textures.
Now you realize you're on the plateau. There are no more great heights to surmount.There is only lateral movement from here on out. GTA VI can only be as good as V, with marginal gains in every category, but not exceptional gains in any. You'll drive from Point A to B. You'll shoot the gangs. You'll escort the cars. Everything you have already done.
There is a running theme in culture right now and it's that large, long-standing franchises are starting to eat shit. They can no longer push the needle. GTA will join them.
