It started with a retweet of a joke:

All women are Bi. Either Sexual, or Polar

Then Taylor Lorenz (the crybully who went after LibsofTikTok) lied about asking some people for comments. Her piece was stealth edited by her to say she didn't get a call back in time, then the persons she mentioned BOTH said they were never contacted by her.

Editors then corrected her piece several times, and then Swiss Boarding School Taylor had a Millennial Snob Entitlement Meltdown and all the employees took sides and are defaming each other and making and deleting snippy tweets in secession.

This is WaPo, the Decider of News, for Democracy Dies In Darkness

Good. It's fun to see them treat each other the way they treat the public.

It's getting crazier.


She deleted this tweet because it gives Weigel (also an asshole) easy ammo for a countersuit that men are treated more harshly than women at the WaPo.

The Washington Post is collapsing, and only Donald Trump can save them

Jeff Bezos's prized paper is losing $100 million a year.

Here’s the too long; didn't read summary of the paywalled article:

The Washington Post is now losing $100 million a year.

During the Trump era, subscriptions were growing 50 percent year over year. Today, The Post is churning paid subscribers at a catastrophic rate.

Four years ago, The Post averaged 139 million monthly visitors. At the end of 2023, that number was down to under 60 million, according to insiders.

Amazon founder Jeff Bezos bought The Washington Post in 2013 for $250 million, and he immediately proceeded to invest significant amounts of capital into the newsroom. Most of the corporate press credits Bezos with turning around Washington D.C.’s historic institutional paper, but that’s not what really happened.

Despite staffing up (doubling the newsroom roster), subscriber growth was pretty flat until the Trump era. Bezos timed the market quite well. He was merely lucky enough to catch the tailwinds brought forth by Trump’s ascendancy to 1600 Penn.

It wasn’t that The Washington Post was suddenly producing a good product. No, it was the Blue Anon Russian collusion fantasies and the like that filled the front page each and every day. That’s what really captured the attention of the Beltway WaPo faithful. Suddenly, The Post became a must-read, spinning fairytale after fairytale of a Bad Orange Man who threatened to capsize all of their supposedly righteous institutions. ...

Now, fast forward to today. The “bad guy” has been defeated by the “democracy defenders,” and there’s a cadaver in the White House. But now, their sales team can’t get anyone to sign up for The Washington Post. That’s because their grand antagonist is no longer the center of attention in Washington. In the meantime, Jeff Bezos is slashing hundreds of jobs in a desperate ploy to turn the margins around.

Paradoxically enough, the progressive corporate drones who work at The Washington Post may only have one man standing in the way of their imminent unemployment.

And that man isn’t Jeff Bezos.

It’s Donald Trump. They need their “Bad Orange Man” back.

You'll be sentenced to 10 years in the UK for having a mere PDF of "The White Resistance Manual", but actually finding it is not a challenge. ITS RIGHT THERE. One Google search away and you too can be serving 8-12 in an overcrowded prison.

Indeed it’s somewhat horrifying how accessible this seemingly most dangerous of dangerous works is: it turns up first page google search.

However, one work is impossible to find. Indeed it took me a half hour of searching to find out it was even real. And then it was only after the list was finally out and I had some breathing room I realized how completely disappeared it really was.

Augusto Pinochet's 4 volume memoir "A Journey Through a Life: Memoirs of a Soldier", better known by its Spanish title "Camino Recorrido" ...

Any bookstore owner or librarian can tell you stories about communists coming to their store or collection and demanding works be removed because of XY or Z... Most universities no longer carry any works of David Irving, once the most prominent historian in the world. And I've heard from bookstore owners the Entire genre of Westerns is now under attack (racist against natives) and an increasingly large swath of Bookstores now don't carry them for the hassle these dysgenic freaks and caricatures straight from an Ayn Rand novel will give them.

These mutants have been known to actively attack stores and collections that stock works they despise, or purposefully steal or destroy said works... And this is when they do not become the librarians themselves.

So you can imagine the works by the one man who did the most to fight the communist scourge in the past 50 years. Saving a nation of 10 million from the fates of Cuba, Ukraine, and Cambodia... they went as far as they could to expunge his works.

I searched the library systems of London UK, New York City, and Toronto...nothing.

Likewise, Harvard, NYU, the University of Toronto, and Cambridge do not have the work. JSTOR does not have it.
