Goddamit—

George Orwell.

In the very beginning there’s a scene where people are watching a war film that seemed eerily reminiscent of the attacks on boats in Venezuela.

✅ War is peace

☑️ Freedom is slavery

✅ Ignorance is strength

I didn’t have any problems with what Obama did at that time. I just thought it was premature to give him the award. It made it seem meaningless.

If I recall correctly, it was awarded before he actually did anything. It felt like wishful thinking, and then he proceeded to authorize strikes somewhere.

So did Obama, right before he ordered a bunch of strikes.

It nailed it. Too many people like myself deciding against having kids leads to people who probably shouldn’t have kids being the only ones doing it.

I didn’t have kids. This was a factor in my reasoning.

That’s true too.

This is who, with Stephen Miller involved, we feared works for ICE. He has a friendly face in these pictures, but his regard for human life is rock bottom.

I would not be surprised if he tells people he’s not a white supremacist, using his wife as evidence. That would not make him an opponent of race superiority, but a hypocrite. Which tracks with people who live a life with shitty values, trying to reconcile thoughts and beliefs that ultimately don’t stand up to reality.

What was that one dudes name…Schlepstein, something er other. I dunno.
