I need to read his book 'Ages of Discord'
Tommorow's promising profession will be today's shit job.
Brain Cancer, not the hero we deserved, but the hero we needed.

He has been becoming more and more of a shithead the last few weeks. That's why I unsubbed from him the other day.
I think this is what the kids call "bad optics."
You don't want to make the association between the US Military and the Nazi German Military, especially when most of your fans support the troops.
@Rayce Jacobson by that logic, Trump should have lost since he made a dig about McCain being captured
How do you get that from what I said?
@Rayce Jacobson your implication seemed to be that anyone who disrespects the troops for any reason is engaging in bad optics, unless I misread it (just woke up, it's 9am here)
I just think this tweet is stupid, because it provides no context and relies on you knowing about McCain's military history and that news of his death was announced at around the time this was tweeted. This tweet it gonna bite him in the ass before the end of the year.
Bechtloff even agrees that this was clumsy.
It will be all too easy for his enemies to reframe this as an anti-military tweet.
He's making a general statement about soldiers w/o necessary context, whereas people knew and still know the context of Trump's dig at McCain.
Also, it was indeed bad for Trump, but it wasn't a death sentence. He bounced back pretty quickly, because he's Trump. Razorfist isn't Trump, and he left himself more vulnerable than Trump.
ah okay
and it wasn't bad for Trump because he tapped into the fact that most people hate John McCain
polling even shows that McCain is more popular among Democrats than Republicans
Fair enough. My other points still stand.
I don't think someone being in the military means that they're worthy of respect, particularly since McCain was a daddy's boy whose military record consists of breaking under torture and possibly collaborating with the North Vietnamese
the Russians are watching us deify him and think we're a bunch of idiots
Most servicemen are none of those things. Let's not throw the whole legion under the bus for one dead senator who deserved to die.
lolol Jim Goad wants to throw down with me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WAIRpSnJpRs&lc=UgykgiPa2uZz8kIgClp4AaABAg
I'm about an hour behind on the Luke Ford stream. I want to like Dennis but he is infected with the "we need to do something" virus which makes him want to put support behind anyone that is doing something, even if they are a dumpster fire
You can't make leaders happen, they will show up when the time is right, an organic thing. I'm of the view that elites that could lead or raise up a leader are out there, they are waiting. Yes, I admit I am of the thought that these things work from the top down, not in the streets and work up
Not really organic but just seems that way. More ordained by God
@everyone So it looks like I will be debating Jim Goad later this week. It'll be on Aurini's channel. No idea when it'll be, but I'll keep you informed.
I'm apparently living in Goad's head rent-free because he's sent a nonstop stream of messages to me all day.
That is almost two months ago. Somebody must have pointed him toward it to spin him up
@phinami alternately, he namesearched it himself
it was also THREE months ago
Why is Goad pissed at you?
While I like Goad, he's only relevant because of Taki's mag
Not to suck your dick Matt but you're much more thoughtful than he is
@MentalSyntaxError he's mad that I called him a coward with no convictions based on a retarded column he wrote chastising the alt-right for being too serious about fighting degeneracy
I called him a GenX nihilist and he lost his shit
What an amazing show!!!
genx and boomers only believe in themselves
