The Haitian blood libel is activating my basest "love it or leave it" tendencies. Like if you want to live under an authoritarian ethnostate, there are plenty of options out there for you, but in THIS country we're trying to do a multiracial creedal republic.

This reminds me of Gambetta's observation of performative incompetence among the underlings in criminal/corrupted orgs, signalling to their bosses just this incapacity to go straight and just that implied loyalty by necessity (archive.nytimes.com/krugman.blog...)

He's a Grayzone/substack "journalist" who I've successfully avoided recently, but who's reliably and aggressively taken Kremlin line on essentially everything I've encountered from him going back to ~2017. It's unclear whether he's on payroll or just has a personality disorder, but either way

DK Metcalf and Calvin Johnson specifically would like a word. But there's a ton of other dudes north of 230lbs with 4.4ish 40s that are legitimate freaks of both size and speed. EDIT: Deleted and reposted to specify *Calvin* Johnson. What I lack in joint size and speed I make up for in idiocy.
