Speaking of failed abortions, Alex Jones has abandoned Trump for DeSantis. Pretty much says he only supported Trump to keep Hillary and Biden from office but that DeSantis is “amazingly good” and he can see the sincerity in his eyes.

#FrancescaDeSantis2024™

The way I see it, Trump is Alex Jones, DeSantis is Ben Shapiro. Same fearmongering bullshit but trading the white wifebeater and unhinged screeching to a respectable suit and condescending sophistry in a chipmunk voice.

Case in point, here’s DeSantis receiving the ceremonial sword from Moms for Liberty:

And no, he unfortunately didn’t commit seppuku with it. Yet.

David Zaslav, I really, really hate you

(What’s removed is notably many animated series/kids’ content and HBO Max “Original” content, leaving them abandoned with no warning to the production companies or creators)

That means that DeSantis is Florida’s Vecna, and Trump would be its Mind-Flayer, which is extremely disrespectful and insulting… to Vecna and the Mind-Flayer.

This cannot possibly be the case since being an Illithid means being exposed to people with brains, being around brains in your possession and generally trying to increase the capacity of your own brain. Trump is incabale of all three.

Oh wait you are referencing Stranger Things aren’t you?

You think we can perform the Head of Vecna on him?

Uh, yeah. Kinda in the article. Anyway, Trump is like that Mind-Flayer in that both are used to getting em what they want through sheer use of their power and don’t know how to maturely handle it when they are resisted or defied, and made fools of, particularly by young women.

And DeSantis, yeah, whatever you are referring to, if it it’s bad for him, go ahead and do it. He thinks he’s godlike and can control his domain however he wants, like Vecna.

The Head of Vecna is an ancient practical joke. Since Vecna’s eyes and hand give powers to whoever grafts it onto themselves one guy convinced nearly his whole power that you could do the same with his head. near TPK.

I didn’t even know we had a Supreme Court vacancy. It’s a nice feeling.

I know it’s a long shot, and please forgive me for taking advantage of something like this, but is there any chance that this means we can finally ignore contractual agreements and put him back in Hitman as an Elusive Target so we can kill him?

A car bomb in the vehicle of Darya Dugina (daughter of Alexander Dugin, both are russian ultranationalist ideologues and propagandists) detonated on the west outskirts of Moscow.
Alexander Dugin is presumed to have been a target. He chose to go in another car at the last minute.

The identity of the one who planted the bomb are still unknown.
And all hypothesis are not great for Russia.

In truth, they might be close to Putin and the kremlin, but not part of the inner circle.
Amongst other quote, both said that Ukraine does not exist as a Nation, Ukrainians as a people should be seen as a lie and are major proponent of this line of propaganda.
Alexander Dugin called for the war since the 90s. He wrote the book on it, this is not an expression. Also he is a littral nazbol (national bolshvik), as in the founder of the party.

It read like a summary of a Hitman mission. To begin with I thought I don’t remember this target. Then I read the title of the thread.

I mean it is a Hitman mission, one of the Hong Kong missions in Codename 47 has you carbombing somebody

My guess is that it’s the work of a political rival of him with the Ukraine being a convenient scapegoat.

The Ukraine doesn’t really gain anything by killing a propagandist no matter how powerful he or she is. Neither Darya Dugina nor Alexander Dugin would impact the Russian war effort in any meaningful way. Bombing ammunition factories, military bases or warehouse with military equipment would make far more sense for the Ukraine.

Honestly I don’t even think that is the important fact of this event.

It could be Ukraine acting with purpose, it could be Ukraine acting on an accidental opportunity, it could be internal resistance (with or without FI), it could be russian feud (old or new), it could be preparation for a potential future political turmoil, it could be preparing the future cards.

Immediately, the important part is that this sort of event can be spinned. Even if it was planned by some. Maybe it will go away in a few days and in a whisper. Maybe it won’t. Maybe it will be used. We are approaching the 6 months mark of the war, and with it Ukraine independence day. But it will be an active choice.

Singapore is ending it’s ban on gay sex…but is also moving to solidify the definition of marriage as between one man and one woman, putting another barrier in the way of legalizing gay marriage.

At least it’s a step in the right direction because simply being gay is no longer a crime.

Our (social)media write that this Dugin(a) kill have been done by russian special services (another version like a part of inner showdowns among some polictical groupings) in preparation to earlier announced tribunal to Azov captives and like an excuse to word’s face to show that this is compelled and obligatory action.

These days both sides accuse each other in various events but I tend to believe ukrainian side, because Russia always comes up with absurd justifications and absolutely ridiculous excuses.
I mean who of adequate people would even think to believe those poor, stange and frequently funny vindications of the whole “special operation” as they say

Good for him. No reason to hang around and have the republicans constantly hound him as the boogeyman they used as a scapegoat for their failure to handle the pandemic in the US. Forty years of service and this is how he gets treated.
