That's quid pro quo love. If he would just change his name to Musk (D) and write a book denouncing the goblin Trump, all would be forgiven. He would once again be the golden boy, the best who ever was but as it is, he and Trump are proof that you can't keep a good man down.
How many people could or would overspend $billions too much for Twitter, just to give truth a chance to live.
To keep the go-to narrative alive we need some updated PSAs featuring sea birds and polar bears drenched in filthy oil. AI often generates some hyper-realistic CGIs.

Afoot.
(If you repeat the word over and over it soon devolves into nonsense that will have you questioning the correct spelling, which is a bridge to cross for guiding attention in the practice of non-intellectual meditation that leads to no-thought.)

Fewer
People often misuse the word
“less,” by using it in place of the word
“fewer.” Nails on a chalkboard. As a result, fewer people are using the word
“fewer.” The spreading prevalence and acceptance of the blatant misuse makes one wonder, why?
Fewer … continued.
“More money for less listeners.” – Jim Jordan (R-Ohio)

I just don’t get it. This man knows the language, his job is language. The clip shows him using language to fillet the NPR CEO. Yet, he is another miscreant who uses the word
“less” when he should use the word
“fewer.” Philosophically, everyone wrong doesn’t make right but maybe that isn’t so in reality. I thought it might be an American thing but I heard Piers Morgan do it other day. Is it some kind of woke thing? Something is afoot.

What is "wokeism" and how do you spot someone who is an adherent of it?

Why would you ask me to define wokeism, after I asked about a specific grammar misuse being a woke thing? As Pam Bondi said to a questioner during her confirmation hearing for AG, I'm not here to do your homework. The relevance is that wokeism appears to be a societal affliction. Government trough feeding is also a societal affliction. So is using the word less in place of fewer, in its own small way, an apparent societal affliction. What is the common thread connecting all these societal afflictions? Well dang it, they're just wrong. The connecting thread is wrongness. You have to admit, Gary, everyone knows right from wrong. That knowledge is the source of guilt and rationalization.

Plenary
"adj. full, complete, covering all matters, usually referring to an order, hearing or trial."
Commentary: black and white definitions are so ... uncompromising. This doesn't sit well with tinkerers (manipulators).

Deplatform
Deplatform is new concept that can significantly affect life for those who need a platform. The word gets tossed around like a fact of life. The concept probably has always been around under other names, but now like a lot of things, the internet can make a concept’s effects as big as Godzilla stomping on the little people. The internet’s reach and influence can transform an old concept into generic coercion for those who have allowed inventions such as platforms to define necessity.
Take Alex Jones: banned from YouTube, X, Facebook—all within a span of weeks. Say what you will about him, but it showed how fast platforms can shut someone down when they decide to pull the plug.
And here’s the twist: these platforms aren’t just apps—they’ve become stages for identity, livelihood, even relevance. Losing access? It’s like losing a limb in the digital age.
Funny how something that started as a “place to connect” became powerful enough to erase you with a policy update.

Brutal Truth
Brutal Truth is when truth is the delivery mechanism for brutality, in order to manifest The Philosophy of Violence ... for whatever purpose.
