January 6, 2021: The Insurrection

The letter is fake.

President Biden stated that Trump left him an actual letter, but he would not release the contents without speaking to Trump.

 

That is what President Biden stated. President Biden said he would always tell us the truth and "would be straight with" us, so I believe him.

 

I think someone in his administration did, probably not Trump himself. It's like how there was a speech written for Trump today that contained lots of respect for norms but Trump didn't use any of it.

 

Biden said there was a letter but it was personal so he wouldn't share it.

 

God damn I wish we still had neg rep buttons. I'd neg rep any and every post using folx on here.

 

I always use "ffolkes" myself, but that's just 80's action movie me.

 

There's a theory going around in some circles that Biden is actually Q, not the guy who makes cigarettes lighters fire poison gas, but Q as in QAnon.

They're still clutching at straws.

 

It is a joke, man....

 

Go to the light, Lindsey!

As the line stalled, Sen. Lindsey Graham wandered over to a set of large windows overlooking a courtyard. A parade of blue Trump flags floated by. "Lindsey!" another senator snapped. "Get away from the window."

The supervisor for social studies for Chesapeake schools sent out a directive for teachers not to show the inauguration live. He worried that there might be political violence streamed out to a bunch of kids.

I take it you haven't been to the part of the internet where "womxn" is a thing?

 

I have no tail.

Does that qualify me for a Manx-card?

 

It's from an article by Michael Lind, which means the analysis is less likely to be consistently spot on than it would be in the hands of a better cultural critic, but his final paragraph. . .

Constantly replacing old terms with new terms known only to the oligarchs is a brilliant strategy of social exclusion. The rationale is supposed to be that this shows greater respect for particular groups. But there was no grassroots working-class movement among Black Americans demanding the use of “enslaved persons” instead of “slaves” and the overwhelming majority of Americans of Latin American descent—a wildly homogenizing category created by the U.S. Census Bureau—reject the weird term “Latinx.” Woke speech is simply a ruling-class dialect, which must be updated frequently to keep the lower orders from breaking the code and successfully imitating their betters.​

. . . is one you might dig. Though by "oligarchs" he means "cultural elite," which doesn't work as well as he thinks it does, IMO.

A grift is not grift if no ones making money off of it and no one seems to be making money off it-at least at evangelical mega-preacher levels.
My guess is that Q is simply a troll that escaped its cage and metastasized.

 

Chapel Hill represent.

 

this reminds me of the common practice of business consultants to invent terminology and buzzwords in order to appear progressive or smart.

I'd hate to be a kid in a foreign country trying to learn English by reading online these days. even native speakers are getting confused seeing so many "wtf is that word?" items each day.

I wonder if other languages are being reinvented this way?
