Last quote.   Author Larry Correia, (aka, the International Lord of Hate) today posted the second post in his "election f*ckery goin' on" series.  He ends it this way:


My favorite part of that blog post was the math part:

Quote
From physicist and author Travis Shane Taylor – “In a sample space of 1 million marbles, 800,000 blue and 200,000 red the probability of drawing a blue marble is 80% the first time. To draw about 30 blue in a row is 0.124%. To draw 100 in a row is 0.0000000235%. To draw 250 in a row is more zeros to right of decimal point than stars in the universe!!!! To draw 138,000 blue marbles in a row is mathematically impossible within the age of the universe without human intent and interaction. In other words, cheating.”

Now the left is calling for lists to be made of Trump supporters, donors, appointees, employees, etc in order to “deal with them once the appropriate legal framework is in place”. They have also started a Google docs spreadsheet to track names. Not to mention the calls to mass murder or send to gulags Trump voters.

The “but we are the good guys” and “we all have to come together!!!” crowd is right on track to check all the boxes of “but it wasn’t real socialism!” socialism.

James is ruthless on Twitter.  I approve!

But, I left Twitter a while ago and missed his posts.  Just found him on Parlor

I just saw that Parlor was the #1 download in the Apple store. Mario Bartiromo did a segment with the founder and said that while she is still using Twitter just to post scheduling stuff about her show, she has moved everything else to Parlor and was on air encouraging her followers to move there as well. Apparently Twitter has been censoring everything she reports with "fake news" disclaimers.

If it keeps up, It's gonna look almost like what happened with MySpace.

I guess it's Parler, not Parlor (My name is KAHmalah!!!).  :laugh:

Interesting that the Newsweek article automatically calls it "conservative". My understanding is that Parler doesn't censor anyone's views. While it may have more conservatives on it, that seems to me to put the label "commie pinko liberal" on Twitter, since they're the ones censoring specific groups and causing them to go elsewhere.

More accurate would have been to state, "Maria Bartiromo left the progressive social media platform, Twitter."

Well, they do two different things.  I don't follow anyone since I don't do social media, but I watch/listen to Maria for the financial information vs the politics.
