Also, if you guys think I'm excusing vice or something, no. I don't even drink fellas
It's midnight here on the west coast. I'll seeya later gents
Goodnight
I have a weird request
Since I'm writing an essay on memes, can you guys please spam my DMs with as many NazBol memes as possible?
I'm looking to crowdsource a name for a moving service. I'm in hipsterville if that makes a difference.
Maybe you should dm me in case I actually use it

You guys ever just wonder if you have a low IQ.
Sometimes I do some really <80 stuff.
My brain seems to be well-suited to some things (like knowing when people are lying) but not to other things (like tact).
I almost put my bird in the fridge this morning instead of the milk
I think we've all been there @NITRODUBS
Bahahaha! 😂
Morning, wypipo!
@NITRODUBS that’s more a symptom of distraction imo
@NITRODUBS I do that stuff when my routine gets broken. I do the exact same stuff the exact same way every day, and so I never think about what I'm actually doing; head always off in the clouds. Which means if one tiny variable changes, I can completely destroy what I'm doing
@Deleted User I'm not sure that's efficacious. It may seem appealing as a first take, but I don't think it works out well. Social programs, where they are aid programs, perhaps ought to be focused on those that have contributed most. Much like social security, if it were run properly. I've contributed a lot more than other people, so my disability benefit would be higher if I were to need it. That's what's "fair" for most values of "fair". Same thing regarding programs paid for by taxes. If I've paid more, why shouldn't I get a bigger share? Helps the rich, you say? Well, there just aren't that many "rich" people. It's not the problem the media would have you believe. What it does do is disincentivise free-riding by those that haven't contributed. The system can still be set up so that they get *something*; it's not "fair" to just leave people to hang out to dry because they haven't had time or ability to contribute. But that's perhaps a different category. You're 18 and haven't had time to pay in, but lose your sight? Yeah, there has to be a mechanism to help with that. Perhaps tied to your parent's contribution. But... extending that all the way back through the generations winds up benefiting "first families" and "old money" perhaps a bit too much. And there *are* a lot of descendants of those families.
This isn't a problem that the likes of us can solve sitting here. That's another thing to consider. No matter how much we brainstorm. Armchair study of a complex system like this isn't enough. It *seems* simple, but the execution of such a system is more challenging than it appears for those of us that have only read a lot of books on politics and economics, perhaps. Even with my MBA what I know is that I'm not qualified to concoct a fair and workable social program system. Not to say we couldn't do it. Take a lot of notes, read a lot on how it's been done, beyond just "look at Sweeeeeden and Norway!" and make spreadsheets, then more spreadsheets, then study more policy. Pretty soon it turns into a big task. tl;dr. no, focusing social programs on those families with the most tenure here won't work well, since those families have a ton of descendants comparatively, I think. Should *some* things be more focused on families that have been here ~400 years? Hell yes.

@hbutzer0511 It kills me that, a year ago, she was a nobody with literally, like, four videos on her channel, and now, she's practically on every Fox anchor's speed dial, and is up to her eyeballs in cuck shekels. Meanwhile, we're moving into near-exponential growth in *actual* right-wing commentators with informed and relevant commentary, and they're still treated as though they don't even exist. That said, it's obvious why this is the case; it just gets my goat... 😑
@Bjorn - MD. The most powerful country in the world does not need to offer citizenship to this caravan to find answers and convict the perpetrators of this invasion.
@hbutzer0511 Agreed.
@Bjorn - MD So Candice wants felons to vote, and to give thousands of illegal invaders citizenship? 🤔 Sounds like a real based conservative to me! <:really:453005408064241674>
@Asatru Artist - MD You wouldn't mind, but I would say that, given where we are right now, there actually still *is* room for thought black commentary on the right, if we had someone like a Walter Williams, who's for freedom of association, but of course, no one even knows who he is (even I didn't until I heard about him on TDS), and there's a reason for that... 🤔
Trump just announced he's a nationalist and wants people to start using that term.
@CarletonJ Yeah, that one was definitely a <:whitepill:439924104406106113>
Absolutely
Till based blegs start using it to describe themselves, eroding away the word's meaning just like that of "American..."
Hopefully not, though.
@Bjorn - MD oh God. What if
*Boomer walking into the room*
"hello, fellow nationalists."
It does seem like that would be the natural, last-ditch globalist gambit. It isn't like they haven't already made an art form out of stripping words and symbols of their original meanings...
"Hi, my name's Ben Shapiro, and I'm an American nationalist."
Oh my God.
Mhmm...
I'm going to choose to be optimistic, though, rather than do the blackpill thing right out of the gate, lol.
Of course haha
