Don’t have a take on good/bad between Russia/Ukraine, Israel/Palestine, US/Israel/Iran because it’s impossible to know who threw the first punch or who was setting up to throw the punch when they got beat to it. There is no sense in wasting time on these things

There are quite literally millions of homes in desirable inner city neighborhoods that are only inhabited by those dependent on the government to live and it’s all because those cities refuse to take crime seriously. The housing market is solved in a single decade by punishing crime

Imagine if instead of selling 3 million acres of the west to build housing we simply enforced laws and made our rotting beautiful city housing stock desirable again

They’ll take your land to build free housing for others (you’ll also pay for this)

City Gov to Seize 175-Year-Old Farm by Eminent Domain, Replace with Affordable Housing

Family fights township attempts to replace historic farm with government project

Is anyone surprised by this? The right still somewhat reflects a normal political party where nuance is accepted. THE left resembles a high school clique where if you say the wrong thing you’re expelled via accusations of a fascism or “literally Hitler”

Here’s the hard truth: The national debt is too far gone. It will never be balanced for hundreds of reasons. Any politician unwilling to pass a bill to beef up border security/deportation efforts (yes they’re full of BS but it doesn’t matter) in the name of balancing the budget or reducing the debt is playing a game blinded by principles

If he was looking to avoid public backlash now sure would be a good time for Trump to announce a Bitcoin buy

Things were peaceful when they just left the criminals alone!

There’s is no fixing the immigration problem. They can bus them in 5x faster than they can be removed. You literally cannot lose an election for 30 years if you want to fix the issue. It’s not going to happen. Best to prepare for an America that looks less and less familiar

“Affordable housing” is one of those things they decided to phrase in a way where you sound like an awful person for being against it. In reality it’s just giving people a house paid for by the rest of us without our consent

Pass the big beautiful bill Accelerate

Urban enjoyors love to use these snapshots of cities that are like renderings where the greenery is perfectly manicured and everyone walking around is wearing the finest business clothes lol everyone knows what cities are like and your image of the 5 minutes a day where a specific block looks civilized isn’t fooling people

I have a desire to return to a society where children were more accepted in public places than dogs

Exhibit A of why the worst in politics always wins. Imagine you’re playing basketball and the other team just picks the ball up and runs around without dribbling. You turn and look at the ref waiting for the travel call and the ref just looks at you and shrugs like there’s nothing he can do. You can either keep playing by the “rules” and lose by 60 or stop dribbling yourself and stay competitive. Either way the winner never follows the rules and the public is left being ruled by rulers and not rules

Sorry, but this is just mental.

If you want a glimpse into where the world is going look at the replies under any popular Twitter post and observe the sea of “@grok is this true?” and “@grok explain this” comments. If you thought the average person was losing the ability to think for themselves then AI is going to drive that ability to zero.

Pro-immigration types think you can drop off a family of Haitianbrefugees in a South Carolina neighborhood and they’ll be smoking pork shoulder and listening to Waylon Jennings in a couple weeks

5 years ago BLM hammered the final nail in the coffin for city living in America for the foreseeable future.

In less than 5 years we will have a group of people in this country starting to argue that AI and robots deserve the same civil liberties as their own children
