He was talking about a General Strike like two years ago, frustrated with the largely theoretical Hashtag Resistance. Earned him the nickname Chairman Daou from r/cth back when that place was still fun. It’s certainly not jarringly recent.

Don’t know if 2+2 talk is allowed here, but yesterday I got a strange congratulatory message from DS that I didn’t understand. I just realized that I may have accidentally tricked him into thinking I actually won the Nobel in Economics.

That’s only two steps removed from Trump PMing you for Nobel coaching
Ask him if you can have an Econ & Sumo subforum.

You should have in turn congratulated him on his brilliant work at Stanford Law

Gaetz is a candidate for Trump 2.0 - the really scary one.
Nah. He’s nowhere near skilled enough.

Yeah but he looks the part and might get a Bannon 2.0 behind the scenes pulling his strings.
Gaetz isn’t scary, he’s a just a prostitute who will let you do the extra freaky thing for more money.

2016: Trump isn’t scary he’s just a blowhard idiot we should point and laugh at.
2019: Praying to God our democracy somehow survives this.
That isn’t exactly what he turned out to be? Gaetz isn’t much smarter. I sincerely hope he’s trump 2.0 in 2024 and not a real billionaire like Mark Cuban or something. Someone with actual talent.
To be clear I’m not suggesting Mark Cuban wants to be Hitler, but there are a lot of talented people in this country… and Gaetz isn’t one of them. We definitely don’t know this dude yet, but we will.
Cuban would be a terrible President good god no

I didn’t realize that the people who own Deadspin also owned Splinter. Makes perfect sense
