Point of accuracy - Greta Thunberg is not a teenager.

First, Greta is now 22. She is one of the most respected environmentalists in the world. Yours is the second Substack I've read that demeans her and blows her off as a "teenaged" whatever.

We all make mistakes, but come on.

It was Vance who characterized the Thunberg threat as transpiring across "ten years" - spanning the entirety of her teenage years.

Why do you talk about @cum69420 and Jack Posobiec as if they are different people?

Gee, I didn’t realize Greta was getting billions of dollars worth of US contacts like the muskrat.

Was his visit to Dachau to: a) understand firsthand the horrors of humanity that’s gone astray, b) be reminded that bigotry in the hands of the state leads to the worst possible consequences, c) see the worst of the Nazi regime to make sure it never happens again, or d) take notes and grab specs since the Nazis had such great ideas for dealing with problems?

Just think, a few months ago nobody in Europe had even heard of this idiot, not to mention Pete Hedsgeth or Marco Rubio!

Most Europeans are stunned at sheer dumbness they are now confronting.

Its really weird to hear two conservative Norwegian historyprofessors discuss if this is a administration more like Hitler OR Mussolini, with those two options being agreed on.

"Unless the trip to Dachau was supposed to be somehow aspirational. We would not put it past him. Maybe he’ll go back to the White House on Monday, walk into Stephen Miller’s office, and present him with some ideas for making an even more efficient concentration camp that he jotted down on a cocktail napkin on Air Force Two."

Puh-LEEZE. True, they are brutal and fascistic, but you think the Trumple-Bumplies can get more efficient than the GERMANS?

Maybe with the Elongated Muskrat's guidance they can aspire to match the industrial-scale barbarity of the original Nazis. Also, how nice for the Europeans that BJ Vance, noted molester of modular lounge sets and Grand High Licker of Donnie's taint, found time in his busy schedule to drop by and give them his read on just what they are doing wrong. Just as if anybody had asked for his fucking stupid opinion. Damn if that ain't the most absolutely unique substitute for diplomacy that I ever heard of; sending out your yappy little cur to bark at his betters.

Doubtful They've gotten the bigotry and racism accomplished, but lack the strict discipline, organization skills, and fashion sense of the German Nazis. NO sharply pressed Hugo Boss uniforms , just a wrinkled T-shirt and cheap adjustable ball cap

I know. Hugo Boss was who got me into Nazism in middle school in the first place.

When you look at Trump's "oligarchs" it tells you how fucked up our values have become What exactly have any of them done that is of any real value?? Far as I can tell the only thing any of them did has been figure out how to use the internet for maximum personal gain. This extends beyond them. Sing a song, act in a movie, catch and throw a ball, and you become a zillionaire!! Do something important like brilliant medical research, stamp out diseases, save a million people from starvation and you're lucky to get paid enough to pay your mortgage and buy groceries.

Not to mention you get dumped on by the worst, most worthless dimwits in the land, who rather than being appropriately grateful for your efforts, try to rouse the rest of the peanut gallery to hang you for a witch because they don't understand what you do and they feel threatened by stuff they don't understand, work they could never in multiple lifetimes could hope to match.
