    Politics The Trump cult

    Yep. Basically the Kevin McCarthys and Cheneys and Lindsey Grahams and Karl Roves - the wealthy GOP business elite and their lackeys - thought they could gain and maintain power by appealing to the bigotries and sexism and homophobia and class and social resentments of white working-class...

    Politics The Trump cult

    Oh, yeah. I'm sure they (via Fox News and other right-wing outlets) will be arguing that this is all somehow Biden or Obama or the Democrat's fault in no time. It's what they do.

    Politics Iran War | Political & Economic Impacts

    If gas prices continue to rise and the stock market tanks - both of which are likely - he'll TACO out within a few weeks and he and his minions will try desperately to find some way to declare victory and withdraw. But the economic damage will take a good while to fix, and all we'll have done is...

    Politics Gas prices

    I can't wait to see how they blame all this on the Democrats and Joe Biden. It will take pretzel logic, but they're very resourceful and I'm sure they'll find some way to spin it to their cult for their social media talking points, as we frequently see from Trumpers on here ("Well, I saw...

    Politics The Trump cult

    These kinds of people have always been in America, and for generations they did dominate large sections of the country, especially the South. Blacks in the South (and some other parts of the country) lived in fear and terror of these kinds of people well into at least the 1960s, as they...

    UNC Sports Biorhythms for UNC @dook: 6:30 Start

    Yes, but my point was that the system Roy used basically doesn't exist anymore - it died with easy transfer and NIL payments. Which is likely why he retired when he did (and I don't blame him for doing so, btw). And any new UNC coach after Roy was going to have to develop a new system, while...

    UNC Sports Biorhythms for UNC @dook: 6:30 Start

    To be fair, dook outrecruiting us for top talent has been going on for long while. K started his one-and-done machine over fifteen years ago, and Roy never really embraced or wanted that model. We certainly recruited good players, but they were often players who wouldn't go to the NBA right away...

    Sports College Basketball 2025-26 Season Thread

    I'm sure there are more, but is there another once-major college sports program that has become more completely irrelevant in the last fifteen or so years in college football and men's basketball than Boston College? I still remember watching with my dad Doug Flutie throw that Heisman-winning...

    True. As has often been said, a Venn Diagram of Trumpers and lolstate fans would be a single circle.

    Sports College Basketball 2025-26 Season Thread

    Most State "fans" are still reveling in their win against us, and they (and Wade) will live off that win against us for the rest of the year. Beating us regularly is what has kept Doeren employed over there, despite mediocre results otherwise. I can guarantee you that if Doeren had lost 2 or 3...

    Politics Iran Catch-All | IRAN WAR

    Given how pro-war Graham is, I so wish someone would forcibly take him to Iran, put him in a combat uniform with helmet and weapon, and tell him to get out there and fight like he's making all of these other people do. My guess is he would curl up in a fetal position, cry like a baby, and beg to...

    Politics Iran Catch-All | IRAN WAR

    So they're going to claim that Iran hit one of their own schools and killed all those kids? With what? An artillery shell? I doubt it would have caused that much damage, and it's very unlikely that an Iranian missile or drone would have hit a school within the city. It's pretty clear that either...

    Damn. Have gas prices ever been that high in Ohio?

    Politics Iran Catch-All | IRAN WAR

    It always has been. From its founding back in the 90s it was deliberately designed to be a 24/7 GOP propaganda network masquerading as a legit news network. The goal has always been to mold Republican minds and tell them only what they want to hear and to confirm their pre-existing world view...

    Politics Iran Catch-All | IRAN WAR

    I'm sure his fellow Republicans who have to worry about reelection this fall are thrilled by all of this. Based on this past week's primaries they're already looking at a very tough political year for Republicans, and now they're stuck defending a war that's already broadly unpopular according...
