If Israel loses Kirk’s base, it really is in crisis in the U.S. discourse.
The question I have that never really translates to discussion irl is why that even matters. I see them talking a lot about shit like TikTok and shifting views, but when's the last time popular sentiment made the machine do anything? What the fuck does it matter if 98% of America can't stand their stinking rotten guts?
He said something critical of Israel shortly before he died and then got sniped solidly. Lord help me I forget what the clip was - but I think a change of heart is a good way to describe it in form. In magnitude it might be too much because I didn't exactly see him decrying the evils of genocide.
The conspiracies were from things like having that old guy claim to have done it, finding a rifle that the guy wasn't seen leaving the roof with, and shit like that. Israel's involvement as a scapegoat came from antisemitism, Netenyahu immediately speaking on it, Netty claiming it wasn't Israel, and Israel's history of doing shit.
I use spam callers as practice for being mean. Shit like "Stop talking. It's my turn to talk." or a hostile "why won't you answer my question?" and the famous "shut the fuck up. I don't care what you have to say."
I don't actually recommend it, but that's neither here nor there. The point is the only way to win against a salesperson is to disengage.
I would have written this note in a novel and my critique group and they would have criticized me by telling me to "show, don't tell" about irony. I'd have been recommended an anti-capitalist ex-employee and to have a conversation with the store owner + give them a plausible motivation. It would have been a whole thing.
What if we needed more fellas so it was moremanism?
