Oh wow this post reminded me that I read that whole Left Behind series like 20 years ago. I don't think I was very religious when I started reading them and at best I'm agnostic now but they were just so forgetful that they made no impact on me after finishing them up.

Lol what is the white genocide that jd vance is claiming

1/23/2026 12:59:17 AM

Idk about genocide but I've definitely seen him say "you don't have to apologize for being white."

1/23/2026 9:57:44 AM

I feel that I do. Mainly because of the behavior of people like those in the administration. Because apparently this is what the real white people do with power.

"... But anyway, it might not even matter, because to Vance, aliens as we know them don't even exist: "I don't think they're aliens. I think they're demons." Vance explained that he believes "celestial beings, who fly around and do weird things to people" are not necessarily otherworldly extraterrestrials in the E.T. or Alien sense, as we've come to think of them."I think that the desire to describe everything celestial [as] otherworldly, to describe it as aliens — I mean, every great world religion, including Christianity, the one that I believe in, has understood that there are weird things out there. And there are things that are very difficult to explain," he said. "And I naturally go, when I hear about sort of extra-natural phenomenon, that's where I go to, is the Christian understanding." ... "There's a lot of good out there, but there's also some evil out there. And I think that one of the devil's great tricks is to convince people he never existed," Vance explained, paraphrasing The Usual Suspects' Verbal Kint. ... "

Seems kinda unfair. Trump obviously saw writing on the wall with Orban.(otherwise he woulda went himself) And I don't think anyone expected a breakthrough with 20hr of negotiations after almost 50yrs

If anything I praise him for doing a flight there, 20ish hrs of negotiations, and flight back. Prob work tomorrow like a normal day

There was some Yarvin talk in other threads, listened to part 1 of this. Part 2 might say he's actually a cuddly teddy bear, tbd

Quote :

"Robert sits down with the great Ed Helms to discuss Curtis Yarvin, the American philosopher of dictatorship whose ideas inspired J.D. Vance."

^ https://www.unqualified-reservations.org/2008/04/open-letter-to-open-minded-progressives/

The OG writing Yarvin did. He never advocated for "killing large numbers of people". One of his analog he discusses the most is FDR and that administration for what it would take to fix the country. He also doesn't convey that these castes are given by birth. They are institutional. He says it explicitly in the above: "Who are these strange people? Briefly, they are America’s ruling class. Here at UR we call them Brahmins. The Brahmin tribe is adoptive rather than hereditary. Most important, the Brahmin identity is inextricably bound up with the American university system. If you are a Brahmin, your status is either conferred by academic success, or by some quasi-academic achievement, like writing a book, saving the Earth, etc. "

Yarvin doubted Trump would fix or do anything meaningful the whole 1st admin and 2026 electction. In the first month of the 2026 administration Yarvin blogged that maybe Trump was serious this time, but then reversed it.

He colors the problems of the current political system well even if you don't agree with the solution. Its weird they keep associating him with the admin when he's clearly had no role and is openly critical at every turn.

5/6/2026 12:52:03 PM

And the "Cathedral" is not "people who annoy him" it's a play on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_triangle_(US_politics) with the addition of the media and academia. It seeks to explain why all those diverse institutions have the same ideas in lock step without having a central control point and why most policy that's massively unpopular (Iran/Iraq war, inflationary monetary policy, bridges to nowhere) still happen even though they are unpopular and we are a Republic.

JD Vance admitted, enthusiastically, that he spreads hateful racist lies to help achieve his policy goals. He lacks values. He is a psuedo-intellectual. It is very sad that he is our vice president.

I happened to catch some footage of him walking from the plane to the podium and speaking last night at the Kinston Regional Airport. It seems like he would have gotten better at speeches by this point. He is such a lame goof.

Quote :

"One of the things the data analysts on our side obsessed over was "composition"—whether the electorate looked close enough to 2024 for Republicans to win. And despite polls that showed a Democrat blowout, the data kept on telling us the same story: in some states turnout was merely OK, in other states it was downright amazing, and in no state was it catastrophic. There was a genuine sense of optimism on our team: our people were showing up. So, I asked the smartest data guy I know, does that mean we're going to shock the world? "No," he told me. "We might do better than the polls suggest. But the data is telling us that a lot of Trump/Vance 2024 voters are pissed and planning to vote for the other guys. Our voters are turning out, but they may not vote for us." Well, that looks prophetic now. Our voters did show up. In Florida, for example, the electorate was 9 points more Republican than Democrat, just a couple points worse than 2024. Undoubtedly there were places we could have done better on turnout. But the main problem is not turnout. The main problem is that many people who voted for Trump/Vance in 2024 voted for Democrats in 2026. There will be a lot of infighting and arguing over what happened and why that is. One of the pollsters I really respect told me that our economic messaging wasn’t sharp enough down the stretch. I’m sure that’s true. But the real reason we lost is obvious to almost everyone. Another pollster—one of the smartest people I know in politics, told me yesterday we’d lose the generic ballot by 13 points. I felt negative going into Tuesday, but even I was shocked by this. In his polling, he saw that a lot of Trump 2024 voters were angry and planning to vote for Democrats. He asked those voters who had abandoned us what would cause them to come back on our team. The top four answers, accounting for nearly all of the responses were: 1) End the war 2) Focus on cost of living/inflation 3) Put America First 4) Change our relationship to Israel Our voters showed up. And the above four reasons are why many of them voted for Democrats. This is according to a pollster who nailed the results. While many spent Monday attacking Rachel Campos Duffy for calling for a diplomatic resolution to the conflict, it turns out her political advice was sound. (She’s also a great person.) In the next few months, there's going to be a lot of gaslighting. Expect to hear any number of establishment politicians say the solution to our woes is amnesty. I'm open to the idea that we should change enforcement—by focusing more on businesses that hire illegal labor, for instance. But anyone pushing amnesty is lying to you. The reason we lost is the war. The president himself said so last night. If you'd like to argue it was worth it, that losing the Senate for the next 6 years was worth it, then do so. Argue it was a worthwhile cost to pay. Agree or disagree, that's at least honest. But everyone knows why we lost. And any honest conversation about where we go from here must start there. I remain hopeful about our country. To the people who are pissed off and want to say, “I told you so”: you’re right, you did tell us so. Take that energy into electing Republicans who share your worldview. To the people who are just pissed at the results, you should be. Let’s take that anger and get back to the work of saving our country."

A lot of what he says is accurate. But no mention of corruption being a top issue? Strange he’d leave that off!

11/4/2026 1:13:51 PM

More than just the war but that was the biggest thing.

Lack of LatinX support due to ICEn abuses.
His suckling at the teets of AI executives.
Endless corruption
Lackluster last-minute speeches


And the fact that he’s done absolutely nothing for the common person this second term.

my impression is that JD pushed back internally on some of the decisions related to the factors he mentioned, and got overruled. he played the loyal VP in public, but would have done some things differently. Now, he's signalling to "his" faction that if he gets elected in 28, how his worldview and decision making process would be different. could be wrong, but that's what I'm getting out of his post

I was thinking this already with the word "loyalty" is used, what use is loyalty that evaporates with trouble? Thats called riding coat tails not loyalty.

11/4/2026 10:36:13 PM

Vance said Trump was Hitler, then "learned" that he was so much better. He doesn't have charisma and he doesn't have the "DC outsider coming in to bring some common sense to the govt" populist angle that Trump had 10 years ago. I'd say he'll be the nominee as of 11/4/2026, but he's nowhere near the candidate Trump was.
