I got cold-called by one of those "We'll buy your house!" scam outfits one time asking if I was interested in selling my modest single-story, two bedroom / one bathroom house.
Me: Not really!
Them: Well, if you were going to, what price would you hope to get?
Me: You know what, let's say five million dollars.
Them: Uh... is this the house at [my address]?
Me: Sure is!
Them: And... five million? You're firm on that?
Me: Well, anything is negotiable, of course. I've got to go now, bye!
And I just really hope that I wasted a little bit more of their time that day, but if someone were to make a horrible paperwork error and accidentally offer me five million dollars for a house worth a fraction of that, that's really on them, I'd say.
Also keep an eye out for people complaining about "globalists" and "coastal elites" because you'll find that the majority of the time, that means Jews.
And no, I don't care if there's good reason to believe that Tyrannosaurs weren't fluffy like owls, I still want a decent artist's depiction of a T. rex with owl-level fluff.
It's hard to find the original Daily Show clip, but they show part of it here. It's the most vile fucking double think imaginable, saying "Hey, I'm not racist, I just want to disenfranchise minority and student voters who HAPPEN to be mostly democrats, and by the way, yeah, I'm actually pretty fucking racist." I'm just glad that the Daily Show got to interview a guy who was so lacking in self-awareness that he said it all out loud.
ICE Lawyer: He's out of our custody, there's nothing that can be done.
Judge: I order you to get the State Department involved and demand his return from El Salvador, or else I will hold you and your boss and your boss' boss in contempt.
Aw, I remember hearing about these years ago and thinking that investing in a cask of booze sounded so much cooler and more real than investing hallucinatory financial instruments or whatever.
Same thing for me from a promoted link on Facebook from some magazine reviewing the show. Big episode happens, I don't watch it that night because I'm busy but I'm planning to watch it the next night. Promoted headline: "Ten Ways [Character who was killed in that episode] Could Come Back From The Dead Next Season." Aw, fuck me!

That's why I'm allowed to always carry a vial of the rage virus from 28 Days Later, in case I get mugged and need to end civilization.
The former Berlin businessman I referred to earlier told me that he blamed his own group, people with the time and the money and the opportunity to know better, for what happened to Germany. "We ignored Hitler," he said. "We considered him an unimportant fellow, not quite a gentleman, not of our own class. We considered it just a little bit vulgar to bother with him, to bother with politics at all."
They thought of the government as "They." The only possible route to a clear conscience in politics is to accept political responsibility, either as an active member of the party in power or as an equally active member of the loyal opposition.
