But she did say no. Literally, multiple times.

The actual Babylon bee headline is ‘Rape Allegations Mar Reputation of Local Nazi’.

On the other hand, the idea that living for oneself is a bad thing is not new- the old style expression of it would have been that you lived for the community, and having children was part of meeting obligations to those around you.

They are likely to fail again, yes.

The DSA will be uncompetitive nationally- woke capital is woke capital which the DNC relies on. Squad candidates win only in deep blue districts and the machines democrats rely on aren’t too enthusiastic about them.

Trump's lack of imprisonment- and that of his close associates- is not due to lack of trying.

They failed at imprisoning Trump and most of his close associates, though.

The immolation of the Democratic Party and the rise of Zohran Mamdani Thought would be a development not necessarily in Elon's favor.
Zohran Mamdani thought is an electoral winner when it has a uniquely talented politician leading it and it's running in a deep blue progressive city. The squad loses badly elsewise.

To say nothing of SpaceX being unable to foot the bill for a defence budget regardless.
If this woman is telling the truth, then it was rape- she said no(in fact told him that before she showed up at her house) and never changed her mind. I would certainly be willing to believe that she's lying, but it seems a lot more likely that her story- she was agonizing about telling someone because she supports him politically(she does seem to legitimately be a progressive democrat), eventually told NYT, they tried to sit on it, but then it leaked- to be true.
She didn't fight him off because she couldn't, she was scared, etc. That does not equal consent. She straight up told him no.

He wouldn’t be a Republican. His whole schtick is being very progressive.

Normal blue collar guys aren’t casually raping people.

Is this the same here and gone?
This woman made a few bad choices(having a previous hookup with platner). Then afterwards he invited himself over and she told him not to come. She unwisely didnt lock the door so he just let himself in. Then she told him to stop while he grabbed her and tried to mount her. If that’s not rape, what is?

Why do you think Bourdain’s suicide had a specific catalyst? By all accounts he struggled with mental illness, lived a lifestyle that doesn’t exactly root people in their lives, and it could easily have just been his unlucky break; no doubt he’d been close to suicide before.

Bosnians in my experience are only nominally followers of mohammed; they drink vodka, eat bacon, gamble, listen to pop music, dress their daughters in skinny jeans, never go to mosque, etc- actually less religious than serbs or croats. Not the kind of mussulmen who would particularly desire extra grace from CPS.

The YFZ raid was a dud on the claim of physical abuse of children, but most of the elders did get convicted for statutory- and polygamous muslims marrying teenagers would almost certainly get in just as much trouble. Mohammedans get a weird double standard in the progressive press but it's unclear that they actually get treated better by CPS.

The Catholic church verifies miracles on a regular basis and provides evidence using modern technology. You may think this evidence is insufficient to prove a miracle(because you need to accept the existence of God), but it hasn't stopped happening. Improving medical technology has not ended miraculous healings. Many holy relics are at least not provable as false.
The same can be said, by the way, for UFOs. Cell phone videos of the sorts of things that UFOs would claim would turn up on cell phone videos are in fact turning up.

Post-camera miracle claims are a dime a dozen; you can choose to believe that they aren’t sufficient evidence but they are there.
Similarly ufo reports are basically the same thing even with improving technology.

The difference between superstitio and religio goes both ways. Nonreligious people can believe in, and regularly do believe in, ghosts, animism, astrology, voodoo, etc.

Trump loves the USA winning, but he probably loves even more that world cup tourists love America. They love our restaurants, our dance halls, our wings and ranch dressing, bucees and the sheer scale. There are regular human interest stories on cable news about fans from abroad falling in love with America(and drinking all the beer in Boston) in addition to the usual aides printing out tweets for him to peruse.

Being a cook sucks- the pay is bad, the hours are maximally terrible, and the working conditions are usually awful, and it's stressful and you're surrounded by felons and have to be bilingual. But there's lots of jobs which do not take a grindset to get into for moderately smart people which are totally fine; you can be a teacher or accountant or cop or work in most trades and make a decent living for a manageable work life balance- and America has lots of second chances if your kids have the same parents and you don't do drugs or commit violent crimes. Not getting into Jane street isn't a consignment to working in a sweatshop.

The six twelves people mostly signed up for it for the opportunity to make more money, usually in jobs that would be tough to replace even if they might be unpopular in certain circles(oil extraction in particular likes this schedule). No one really finds this schedule controversial- those guys almost always volunteered for it. I think he's referring to the oriental grindset of overstudying to boost test scores above what IQ would predict.

Has it mutated in Russia or Sub-Saharan Africa or other countries where it just runs rampant?
This accusation isn’t date rape- he entered a woman’s house after having been refused entry and then raped her. They weren’t on a date(although they had been in the past).
