Nah, the problem is there's just nothing humorous about it. Not even Robin Williams could've made that bit work, and everybody loves him. (RIP)

along with other things.

See, that's the problem, you have to make up things to soften the statement that JD Vance was agreeing with. What the host, Eric Weinstein, said was “the whole purpose of the postmenopausal female,” is to help raise children. There was no concession that postmenopausal women serve any other function than raising grandchildren. Stop trying to make it seem reasonable.

Idk I expected it to be worse from this guy haha

Again, it's because you made up a reason to pretend what he was agreeing with was a reasonable position.

Corporate media are doing everything they can to usher in a dictatorship that will see the end of freedom of the press. And if Trump wins in November, they will deserve it. The problem, of course, is they're going to drag all of us along with them.

Same thing happened earlier this year with Wendy’s new CEO. His brilliant plan to make a name for himself was rolling out dynamic pricing. After days of well deserved backlash Wendy’s had to come out and walk it back while insisting they had never planned to use this to do lunch/dinner surge pricing.

This is awesome of him to do. And as an aside, Robert J. Sawyer’s Neaderthal Parallax trilogy is one of my favorite sci-fi trilogies ever. It’s about a team of Canadian physicists who accidentally open a portal to an earth in a parallel universe where Neanderthals became the dominant species on the planet. The series explores how their modern society may have evolved and how their technological and social development may have differed from our own. I highly recommend it for fans of hard sci-fi and alternative history.

Right? It’s almost as if they’ve never been approaching any of this in good faith.

In a major win for the DOJ Boeing has agreed to a plea deal to avoid a criminal trial. As part of the deal Boeing agreed to a slap on the wrist after which they will be legally required to admit to being very naughty before they can resume committing crimes.
