The right needs to learn how to instinctually do gut-level checks. If the number looks 30% off, the very first question you should ask is: am I understanding this correctly? Failing to answer that question is a good way to make an ass of yourself.
Elections Alberta noted in advance that the province had 3,148,343 eligible voters. The problem is that the numbers below add up to 4,352,679 votes cast. So not only were there 1,204,336 more votes cast than eligible voters, which is bad enough, but I guess we're also supposed to believe that 100% of the 3M+ eligible voters cast a ballot. Can someone explain how blatant electoral fraud isn't involved?

Is it worth talking about riots? I was going to write a post about it, then it seemed too basic bitch, but I keep seeing these terrible takes. 1) Every country has some variable number of shitkickers. These are rabble-rousing underemployed room-temp IQ assholes who enjoy breaking things and hurting people. They are like this because they are a) stupid, and b) they have little investment in society. They are disproportionately brown but plenty of them are Euros. In principle they would prefer always to be breaking things and hurting people, except there is the problem of police and coordination. 2) As a single solitary shitkicker you cannot break stuff or hurt people: you'll get arrested. Ideally you and your fellow shitkickers would go outside right now and break stuff and hurt people all together, overwhelming the police, but coordinating is hard, so all of you just sit in your concrete suburban flats and get high watching daytime television and listening to audio cancer instead. 3) The unharnessed, ambient criminality of these shitkickers is a weapon that leftoids wield with plausible deniability. They know if they start enough of a fuss about any given thing, these tards will be out there throwing rocks at police (the white ones) setting cars on fire (a mixture) and looting (the brown ones) and all the rest of it, because that is what they want to be doing all the time anyway. 4) Antifa and various adjacent dirtbag leftoid activist types fill in the spectrum between the MoStlY PeAcEfUL leftoid uni student protestors and the sorry retarded asses of these guys. 5) Migroids are bad in this context because migroid populations have a much higher admixture of riotous shitkickers than exist in native populations. They increase the general social volatility and make it easier for the left to set off massive riots that cause millions or billions in damage and take months to quell.
This guy is such a fucking moron. Many, many French people are protesting in France. Some are even rioting. Migroids absolutely make it worse, but you have to have your head very far up your ass indeed to not know that our own native homegrown left isn't a huge dangerous problem

Inventing a German fairytale character who goes around pinching kids’ toes when they watch tv programs put on by traitors to the country to induce a Pavlovian response. “Ah, that’s Grundelweiner!” They’ll say when such things occur.

The leftist inability/unwillingness to engage in hypotheticals inhibits their ability to assess nth-order effects, and disallows them from foreseeing and preventing problems.

I'd venture to guess that this isn't limited to a theoretical understanding of economics: the closer to a supply chain you work, the further from the left you drift.
knowing economics alienates you from left wing friend groups it’s crazy. i explain how a thing works in america and it’s always “no but it shouldn’t be that way” like ok sure there’s drawbacks i agree. and then you ask what the solution is and they just say “not do that”

Tooter is an Indian alternative to Twitter (X). American companies like X will fall if Americans continue to mistreat us. India has a huge audience, and if we start using our own apps, we can generate massive revenue for Indian companies.

millions of people liquidated so we could keep housing unaffordable
". . . half of the present birthrate decline is attributed to housing affordability, and . . . if costs had remained stable since 1990, 13 million more children would have been born through 2020."

what's nice about having sick kids is that we don't have to sanitize anything when we're out and about since we are the danger
