I think that's a definite correlated result. But it seems like the 'TDS' step must come at some point before that, in order for someone to interpret those things in your first 3 paragraphs with maximum uncharity. A Sam Harris for example, definitely does feel an extreme version of frustration that "he can't keep getting away with it". But that's down the line from his extreme TDS where he treats every little thing uncharitably as pieces of an obvious whole, even though he can agree on any individual piece (when litigated) having completely benign or subjective interpretations available.

Sounds like a slam dunk to me.
Right after you prosecute the last fifty Democrats to use similar language. Don't rush, I'll wait.

Part of Seattle seceded from the union.
But we did get a great natural experiment in anti-racist policing, which started shooting unarmed black kids in just under two weeks.

Do I look like I'm on the clock here?
An "insult" implies, at least slightly, that there's no merit to my claims. I am intimately familiar with crankery, and I know the symptoms of someone at very high risk of psychosis. Someone offering legal, programming or engineering advice would not be held to the same acuritny. In this case, I invite you to examine his arguments and see if your claims that I'm being irresponsible stand.
Clearly you have no idea what you're talking about and can't even tell when someone's agreeing with you. See what the neo-nazi wiki saysi: https://de.metapedia.org/wiki/Herrenrasse

I can't find records of any associated prosecutions.
Tbf, one of the CHAZ murderers was prosecuted and convicted, total sentence 14 years. Most of the others don't seem to have been prosecuted or seriously investigated. Nor were the various efforts to block police and medical first responders, or to destroy evidence, punished.

The deep state shouldn't be considered as a rational actor. No reasonable person would think 'OK we've got Biden as our old and withered presidential nominee, we can just run the country while he's out of it. But let's put in Kamala as a talentless, charisma-deficient vice-president and then when 2024 comes around and Biden is predictably incapable... uhhh... well better think up something clever then!' But they did that anyway and fumbled it.
We already know that they don't use optimal strategies, they're not going to do an assassination properly either. If they try to assassinate someone, it'd look like their military campaigns and spending programs. A giant mess.

AP: Conservative news network Newsmax files antitrust lawsuit against Fox News
As always, initial reporting is based on the complaint and the respondent's PR statements, so take with a grain of salt. Why CW? I can't recall a precedent for this - can anybody else? If not, is it because of something Fox-specific or something about the culture of the conservative infotainment ecosystem?

I expect you to be quite disappointed when Trump kicks the bucket and the half of America that considers you an enemy doesn't abruptly vanish like the morning mist.
Yep. Might have happened before the 2024 election (well, it would have been more an angry red mist). But now someone's going to take the MAGA ship and try to sail it. J.D. Vance being the obvious candidate, though a few years can be a long time politically. Probably won't be as successful in energizing the base (either their own or their opponents) as Trump; maybe the middle will come back into play, or maybe it'll be more trying to separate the Democrats from groups they've neglected. I can't tell from here.
With zero guns? My god man. There's a slight problem with your theory.
