He's not wrong.
And, yes, I totally geeked out when he picked up the sword.

It's a shame he can't run for president. That kind of confidence and certainty is a big part of what makes someone seem presidential.
I think he also manages to elucidate the primary distinction between Biden and Trump. No matter how you feel about Biden, Biden never really comes off as a guy who doesn't have ideals. Trump in basically everything he does, comes off as someone with no ideals and no principles beyond his own aggrandizement. Completely unsurprisingly, that seems to be shared by his followers.

So, Parler is apparently in dire straight now. On top of being dropped by Google, Apple, and Amazon, all their business associates have cut ties and apparently they're out of money. Guess conservatives will have to wait for Trump to come along and make his own social media platform and see how it somehow manages to avoid the same fate? I mean jesus;
“Every vendor from text message services to email providers to our lawyers all ditched us too on the same day,” Matze said today on Fox News.
Even the lawyers quit? Lawyers who are no strangers to bad press and who tend to treat any kind of press as good press? They don't even want to wade into this? Gee, it's almost like there's something wrong here other than free speech.

The sword was funny, the "Hey this is me flexing" poster in the background was hilarious! Afaik, Arnold is a republican that was never on Trump's side, no?

Arnold was a popular Republican back in the Bush Jr. era, when he was governor of California. After his term as governor ended he kind of retreated from politics during the Obama years (by this point in time, he was not very popular in California), but came back during the Trump years mostly as a celebrity critic of Trump. So no. The Governator has never really been on Trump's side, but he was also an active politician before the GOP went full fascism and even before the Tea Party started making a mess of things. In the old days he'd probably have been called a RINO politician (pro-choice with limits, pro gay marriage, fiscal conservative, hard on crime). His stances in more recent years seem to have shifted left on some issues.

So this video is from his home? He has a big desk with a US flag and a California flag, and wears a jacket with a US flag patch and a California flag patch as part of his everyday life? With a sword? Crazy!!

Yes, because I'm not brave enough to question him on it.

Crazy!! Dude's rich with a big mansion that's probably full of souvenirs from his time as governor and from his movies.

So I saw this recently by following a link on one of the articles recently posted here...
Basically, the MAGAt crowd are trying to equate the lady who got shot during the insurrection to the long list of Black women killed by racist police, and are trying to corrupt the #SayHerName hashtag to do it. It goes without saying that a white conspiracy nut who tried to overthrow democracy has nothing in common with say, an unarmed Black woman sleeping in her own home, but MAGAts gotta wallow in their imaginary victim status.
And this is just part of a larger trend, whereby Nazis steal and corrupt otherwise innocuous things and ruin them for people forever. You know the death's head emblems on SS uniforms? The Nazis stole those. They didn't invent them for the SS, they stole them from the Imperial German Cavalry corps uniforms used until the end of WWI. The swastika? Stole that from the Buddhists and the Hindus. Hitler's moustache? Stolen from Charlie Chaplin. The goose-step march? Stolen from the Italians. Technically, they stole fascism from the Italians, too... but fuck it, they can keep that one.
Now they are trying to steal a social justice hashtag and ruin it for everybody, too.

There seems to be a rift in the deplorable community. Some are claiming she (and the rest of the terrorists) were antifa plants. Others are trying to elevate her to sainthood.
