chuck isn't Chosen, is he? I thought he wasn't
He lost his publisher and got kicked out of his writing group over the book
No just gay
oh no kidding
that's wild
Yeah, I'm not totally surprised though. Being familiar with his older work, that is.
He is of the ilk of gays that likes being rebellious and pushing *actual* limits, not the ones you get rewarded for. He's always attempted to be at least a little legitimately edgy
Yeah. I like the guy tbh. The point he makes about the "gay community" is not the kosher party line either. Its a kind of Donovanesque stay in the closet/fringes message.
If you haven't already watched/heard this you absolutely have to. Tucker Carlson is pushing third position politics into the mainstream.

How do you guys think the government shutdown will end?
Trump can't just go on like this forever until people start to get really pissed at him
Everyone needs to view this
I think he'll wi if he sticks to it
he has the people behind him
go nuclear or declare state of emergency
he's beginning to understand the power he has in the people
Regular people don't care that much about the wall. If it goes on too long, people will be like "who cares about your stupid wall, just give me my government services"
CALL WH TOMORROW
But they care about him
maybe it wont end
they care bout the man
this could be a potential good ending
if the shut down causes massive black/Hispanic riots, that could really shift public opinion
I think even the white SNAP peeps care about this
this is visceral
racial
you just won't ever hear about it
didn't Trump say they made some sort of proposition with Pelosi and Schumer today?
Imagine Ferguson all over again, with scenes on the news of blacks smashing up grocery stores
even from the people themselves
i thought you were referencing white folks on stamps
i see how they could be organized
if food stamp riots happen, the Democrats might be more pressured to accept a deal
bad optics for blacks and Hispanics + higher chance of a deal
trying to predict what is going to happen politically is pretty fruitless imo. if it matters to you, you should call the WH, call your reps etc. as Patrick and FTN have recommend and then get back to focusing on yourself and your local community.
If food stamp riots happen I’m toast
Only white neighborhood in a heavily black city
Been nice knowing you guys.
