It's always good to remember that Caesar's revolt against the Senate was predicated on the Senate ordering him to dismiss his soldiers (after conquering all of Gaul, subduing various Germanic tribes, launching offensives in the British Isles, etc.) and appear in Rome, unarmed and defenseless, to face criminal prosecution because the Senate was scared of him. They broke precedent and procedure to issue an ultimate decree allowing the Roman state to ignore all laws to neuter Caesar as a political and military leader
Isn't the cope that the senate expected Marc Antony to use the Tribune's Veto to take the teeth out of their virtue signaling maneuver but fatefully he didn't?
 
I know the far left/DSA types and the vote blue no matter who crowd won't be phased by this, but do the Dems sincerely think their efforts to champion crime and criminals will successfully appeal to what moderate and independent voters still exist?

It doesn't matter what the normies think. The progressives who control the DNC (for the moment at least) don't give a single shit about what they think or do. To them the normies will fall in line the second they've beaten Trump...finally. Once the MAGA brainwashing is stopped people will just "naturally" fall back in the Democratic camp like the good little drones they are. After all the Left is on the right side of history and losing is just something that happens when the bad guy cheats...well cheats better then they do I guess.

This is a holy crusade they're on, Trump is the very face of evil to him so whatever they do, what they say, whomever gets harmed in the path is just gravy to them. Remember progressive hate anyone who doesn't think 100% like they do.

Winning elections is the furthest thing from their mind. They need to stop Trump, the HAVE to stop Trump that's all that matters to them now. They are solely the anti-Trump party, the offer nor want to offer anything else.

In their minds stopping Trump will bring them victory. What the victory entails is kinda...fuzzy as they can't really agree what the end game is but they all agree Trump is the person standing in the way of the great Progressive Utopia to come. Whatever that is.

I truly question what these types of people will do once Trump is gone. They've based their whole world view, their whole moral system and their very personalities on being anti-Trump.

What happens to the hero when there is no bad guy to fight?
 
In a nutshell, the study's data indicated that liberals cared more about animals, rocks, trees, etc. than they did their family, friends, and countrymen. As a meme, it indicates that the left empathizes more with an endangered guppy in backwater China than they do with their neighbor or family at risk of being crushed to death by an illegal Indian trucker.
I actually have to fact check that one. The study designer in question did actually come out and say that a lot of people used the data wrong but admitted it was the designer's fault in doing a bit of a poor job presenting the data in the first place.

Effectively a massive confounding variable in the whole thing was something like political affiliation being a concept that breaks the heat-map entirely since you can't really place it on the map, and the research wasn't really geared to explore that. It's true in a very general sense, but not specifically enough for the meme to get used like people want sadly. Gotta rain a bit on that parade.
 
The entire hippie generation was a CIA/FBI distortion. You think the beatniks and the druggies were just some random happening?

Timothy Leary (Havard) and Alpert (Stanford) Phds both pushed psilocybin during the harvard psilocybin project in the late 50s/ early 60s, they pushed acid as well. The music scene glowed so bright you could see it from space, Jim morrison's dad was deeply involved in the gulf of tonkin false flag that got us into Vietnam. Couple books have been written about the laurel canyon influence on music. Burroughs came from a super rich family, and was briefly in the OSS (publicly brief) he was in and out of tangier like he was still a spy.


All this shit has been going on for a lot longer than people seem to know.
Shush, it's a simple fucking coincidence that every major counterculture figure had a father who made full colonel or higher. You're making a lot of noise that's really disrupting our work the music industry, you little drama queen. Although, you know what, there's this fellow George Noory who you should get in touch with to spread the word of your discovery. I've heard he's a pillar in the conspiracy community.

Also, note that one of the precedential cases on judicial immunity he cites multiple times is the Hastings case out of the Eleventh Circuit. Alcee Hastings was a black judge appointed by Carter as part of Carter's proto-DEI nonsense (that ended up appointing a number of corrupt judges—weird how that happens, right?). He took $150k in a bribe to give a lighter sentence to a mafia guy convicted on racketeering charges. He also liked to spend quite a bit of time hanging out, smoking cigars, and drinking whiskey with young women instead of doing his work as a federal judge. He was impeached ultimately. His co-conspirator was pardoned by Clinton. The moral of the story, I guess, is that once again a black criminal (Hastings) has taken down a liberal white woman (Dugan).
Alcee Hastings went on to become a 14-term Congressman after all that.
 
intent to deny revenue under fair use provisions. Retard.

Its so funny. How did it get this way? Trump is not even really a conservative, and yet he has become some kind of ultra-mega-hitler-Satan to them. Fascinating

Yes, there are flaws with the study in terms of generalizing it to the American political community. But as a meme, it manifests what everybody has seen with their own eyes—liberals care more about people and things that have no immediate relation to them than they care about the wellbeing of their family and country. It answers the questions that naturally arise when you see progressives and democrats cry about an illegal alien human trafficking gangbanger while ignoring the children in their community killed and abused by criminals. Or praying to St Floyd's golden casket while being totally apathetic to the local business owners whose lives were destroyed by rioters. Or demanding that their own family and friends substantially diminish their quality of life so that a minor animal halfway across the world can potentially be protected a tiny bit more.

Trump's not on their team, simple as that. He didn't need to kiss the ring/ass.

Then they will grieve for the loss of Trump like Trump grieves for the loss of his good friend Shinzo Abe. Also retard fights. Many retard fights.
 
Take the 'wealth inequality' issue that seems to be the number 1 issue for these people.

They'll drone on about it being a 'growing problem,' and I suppose if you're so myopically focused on a single wealthy nation, you might see the gap widening. But that's a provincial, navel-gazing perspective.
part of the wealth gap meme is that it's a self reinforcing outcome of their own policies

>be rich country
>inport millions of povertyniggers from the poorest shitholes on the planet
>waow why are there more and more poor people in our society every year?!? this rising wealth inequality is unacceptable!
>must be a sign of late stage capitalism, just as marx predicted! time for some wealth redistribution!

oh that's easy.

Trump is the left's Goldstein. He's the focus they used to keep the party together. Orwell was right when he wrote 1984. The Left is a group of very angry and hate filled people and the best way to bring them together and exert power over them is to give them a target that's OK to hate on.

For a lot of people, it's just performative. Once Trump is gone, they will move onto the next thing to raise their blood pressure and give them the same sense of moral condescension.
 
I'm curious to see whether the quality of the food and service takes a proportionate hit with the stock values in light of the rebranding efforts
Food portions got hit a while back. Last time the wife and I went our server was serious business into demon shit tattoos, way beyond normal edgy atheist
Good waitress though. Only reason we stopped going was the portions
 
I for one would not mind Apicius's cookbooks being reprinted for the world
Yes you would. Apicius didn't explain amounts, ever. He'd explain recipes like some asshole in a GameFAQs walkthrough where you can't figure out a puzzle and the guy just says "yeah solve the puzzle and move on to the next room."

People seem to forget or maybe weren't around to remember the insanity around GWB, or even Reagan. There were no shortage of lunatics claiming Hitler then, too. They were both also fascists who were going to destroy America for their corporate/(m)billionaire overlords and install a Christian Theocracy. Arguably, in Reagan's case, they were at least half right.

What's changed is between GWB and Trump is the Internet allowing concentration of message, effort and ideology. These people will be just as unhinged against the next elected official who doesn't cater to the whims of the mentally ill and socialists who preach that allowing niggers to steal without consequences is a good thing.
 
With the talk about Caesar people need to remember, leading up to him taking the city the political situation in rome had become utterly dysfunctional. The massive influx of slaves over times consequences had resulted in massive estates aka the latifundia to outcompete and subsume land owning roman farmers. The senate was too far gone with corruption to care for the plight of the impoverished roman citizen. That wasn't a recent phenomena to Caesars actions either, this problem was attempted to be solved in the past by a tribune of the plebs (romes Democratic representative of the masses) names Tiberius Gracchus. The senate decided to publicly beat him to death, not sent thugs or the military, the senators marched out and beat him to death. This is ignoring the social war, marius, sulla and all that shit in between the Gracchi and Caesar. The roman senate being completely up their own ass with corruption was a major problem.

Caesar himself was debatably forced into the position he took marching on the city. His rivals in the Senate kept pulling shit with endless Lawfare against him where it got to a point of stand down your army and be prosecuted or overthrow rome. Caesar had earned the adoration of the masses. The pricks who shanked him has paraded around the city afterwards expecting cheering adoration for saving the Republic.

If you feel like going on a history binge the late roman republic after the second punic war is a particularly intriguing chapter purely because of how dysfunctional things became

As it should be. Great chefs don't measure unless dealing with ferments or salt curing, maybe baking but even that becomes a matter of 'feel' once you reach a certain level of proficiency.

Trump should legally change his name to Goldstein, or NIGGERS, or something like that. Then he should remove access to any press that will not address him as President NIGGERS.
