  • It sure is awful that we’re at a point where people like Musk and Theil are working with a demented rapist conman to put someone like this 3 hamberders from the presidency.

    The eyeshadow is not really a problem, I guess, except in the context of his other views. If he just was like “yeah I grew up with emo” or “I like the cure” or even “I think it makes me look cool”, that would be one thing, but instead we’re just supposed to overlook it like some people accept that his running mate is a pasty pink person with pig eyes who paints most of his face orange.








  • I can read the entire article. You mean you don’t use NoScript etc?

    There’s no “paranoia” about Theil. He’s shown himself to be an incredibly horrible person and to do bizarre things like have special assistants for donating blood he is injected with. Imagine how much ‘conservatives’ would freak out if Obama or someone similar did that, but he’s your boy, keep him.



  • Only if you actually understand the studies, analyses, caveats, potential biases, and possible reasons for the results, which you don’t seem to have taken into account. Assuming you’re actually citing reliable research, which is unlikely, based on my experiences here. Again, it seems likely that conservatives lead in undiagnosed mental illnesses, which makes sense given the poor access to health care in many conservative majority states, and lower willingness to have their mental health evaluated.


  • Yeah bro, TDS, the left!

    We were comparing their debate performances as far as I can read it, so pretty sure that’s not “TDS” (which is an absurd term, and fuck Charles Krauthammer for introducing that to the lexicon - about Bush, of course). It’s worth noting that you made those claims about Harris’ performance while either accepting Trump’s or just overlooking his frankly insane behavior.

    I don’t really trust anyone once Theil is involved. Maybe that’s just my Theil Derangement Syndrome, since of course criticizing conservatives always means mental illness.

    There are other experts who have analyses too, of course. You might check out this one:

  • We can discuss Harris, sure. However, the topic was a debate - so yes, the idea is comparing the two. Trump was slovenly, unhinged and incoherent, but you somehow didn’t notice and claim that Harris did a bad job? Your interpretation is so distorted that I’m not sure it’s worth addressing.

    okay, so Silver is working for Peter Theil now. Good to know.
