@andrei_chiffa @dymaxion @GossiTheDog Einstein said the only thing he liked about Princeton was walking home from work with Goedel.

There is a good BBC documentary on Cantor, Goedel, and Turing. They mentored each other and all committed suicide.

@andrei_chiffa @dymaxion @GossiTheDog I like anything that discusses Goedel. Do you know how he died?

@andrei_chiffa @dymaxion @GossiTheDog But, wait, does this mean that Ayn Rand's vision of paradise as being a red in tooth and claw struggle of the virtuous psychopath is not the way to go?

@katestarbird My question: did any of these false claims go through USPS? If so, isn't that mail fraud with up to 20 years in prison?

Remember that is how they got rid of governor Mandel of MD when they could not prove bribery.

Similarly, shouldn't he have to pay taxes on gifts worth over $100k?

Remember, that is how they got rid of VP Agnew, not paying taxes on his bribes.

I think DoJ is sleeping. If you had a republican attorney general and a democratic justice this would already be in court or at the end of a please deal.

Nixon got rid of Justice Fortas by threatening bogus litigation against his wife.

@Adirondack@toad.social Have you seen the Jon Ronson program on Bohemian Grove? He went with Alex Jones. Hilarious.

@Helderweb @paul You are we!come. Now read some Baudrillard to blow our mind.

@dangillmor If any of these false statements went through USPS, isn't that mail fraud?

@maxkennerly Makes life worse for white working class, increasing their rage

@Peternimmo

Were any of these statements submitted using USPS (likely)? That would be mail fraud:

Punishable by up to $1 mil fine or 20 years in jail:

thedefenders.net/blogs/mail-fr

That is what they charged Gov Mandel of MD with when the other parts of his case were too questionable.

Just wondering if anyone has considered this angle. I would assume that he or his wife is bound to have sent a letter with false claims on these issues.

@paul It does not matter, they just need to hook Musk's feed to about 40 mil GPT bots set on fawning mode. He is definitely willing to pay $44 Bil to get simulacra of approval.

I would be kind of surprised if they are not surreptitiously doing something like that already. All he wants is a lot of slavishly doting comments to make up for his childhood.

@jerry On the other hand, your taxes are paying for incarceration of jan 6 insurgents: "Of the 192 people who have been sentenced to incarceration, the average incarceration time levied is 16 months."

When a uterus is more heavily regulated than an assault weapon, that’s when you know it’s a war on women.

@davidseidl @GossiTheDog Tel them you wanted to ask them about their extended automobile warranty.

@Peternimmo @patmikemid @shoq

I think they are mainly missing ethics, compassion, and the ability to think rationally.

They are able to ruthlessly do bad things.

@Peternimmo @patmikemid @shoq

Definitely. I kind of wish they would threaten his wife, too. She was chest deep in January 6.

@patmikemid @Peternimmo @shoq Hard to argue that Nixon cared more about ethics:

Fact has always been Republicans have always been more willing to use their power in office for political ends.

Like Reagan keeping US citizens imprisoned to win an election:

UK politics: Tory racism 

@Stevenheywood Strategy. For the minority minister, saying racist things endears them to their racist base. For the base, supporting the minority minister lets them be racist but feel less racist.

For antiracist, attacking the few minority ministers does not feel right.

Also, didn't Truss sack Braverman for incompetence? How did she slip back in?
