I think he's referring to his own character, Dwight.

I interpret Dwight to be right-wing-libertarian character. Dwight is always an ass-kisser to his boss and loves corporate hierarchy. Dwight hates the government and government regulations, in one episode he brags about overusing pesticides. Dwight is obsessed with traditions and family values, grew up on a dutch farm. Dwight is obsessed with rugged individualism and self-reliance. Dwight quotes Mussolini when he gives a speech in one episode. Dwight also loves cops.

The Office was a mostly tame show. I remember season 1 being the most problematic and then the show mellowing out. This is probably meant to show character growth.

Rainn Wilson seems to have a persecution complex. I suspect that he's criticizing "the left" because he's pro-Israel. I saw another clip from this year on reddit where he supports the Iran war and wishes that Iran was overthrown.

I saw a video clip on reddit frontpage of Knicks fans doing vandalism on public property after the NBA Finals Win and it had dozens of comments that said "this is why you shouldn't have defunded the police". Police are currently receiving more funding than ever before. Police are the only group of people that Americans will say deserves more pay while not serving their supposed purpose.

Boots Riley wants you to know that there is an extra scene after the credits.

The use-case of Libreboot is that it replaces the mysterious computer bios with software that is completely FOSS. It is highly suspected that every computer made after 2008 has government backdoors built into the hardware.

Libreboot is not a Linux distro, it is a bios replacement.

What are the benefits of using Libreboot?

  1. cool hobby
  2. demonstrates that you have complete freedom over your computer hardware
  3. removes hypothetical bios backdoors
  4. installs GRUB directly onto your motherboard so that you don't have to install it on your system drive.
  5. disables Intel Management Engine (ME) which allows your computer hardware to be controlled remotely by other entities
  6. true full disk encryption including encrypted boot partition because you have grub installed on the motherboard
  7. other advanced security features such as gpg signing your kernel
  8. make FSF proud of you

Hexbear users love to talk about tech literacy, then why can't Hexbears see the use case for a FOSS bios replacement? I didn't think there would be a need to explain it.

Why does everyone expect me to have known the tech competency level of a specific Hexbear poster? I'm not parasocial like that.

Why mention it on this specific post? the t480s is one of the few computers that is compatible with Libreboot.

USB can be split with a USB hub. Or universal laptop docking stations use the USB C port. Or there is a t480s specific laptop dock. USB 3.0 hub is $10. USB-c dock is $20-$50.

Emulate console games. PS2/Xbox/Gamecube should run pretty well. Wii has pretty similar specs to Gamecube but required a motion controller. I'm not sure about PS3/X360. Any usb controller should work with an emulator.

Everyone points to an episode of 'Curb Your Enthusiasm' titled 'Palestinian Chicken'. Season 8 Episode 3. The episode portrays Palestinian people as being inherently antisemitic.

Is the episode suppose to be satirical, like making fun of how Zionists portray Palestinian people? I don't know. Based on online review, Zionists seem to really like the episode and agree with it.

Larry David has not made any statement on the Gaza Genocide of the past 2+ years. Larry David has not condemned Jerry Seinfeld.

Larry David has never traveled to Israel, at least not in public record. Jerry Seinfeld has traveled to Israel, many times.

Larry David and Jerry Seinfeld were photographed together at NBA Finals Game 4 on June 10 2026.

The 2 people that Spencer names in the video are Karen Bass (establishment democrat) and Nithya Raman (DSA democrat). Both are openly Zionists. Spencer is also a Zionist.

The show 'Seinfeld' isn't made by Jerry Seinfeld. The show is made by Larry David. Larry David is less belligerent than Jerry Seinfeld, but still a liberal Zionist.

Last year, Larry David wrote a satirical essay which compared Bill Maher to being a Hitlerite for eating dinner with Trump.

This is the type of alien that you would see in Star Trek TOS because they had low costume budget.

Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi appeared to respond to President Trump’s threat that the U.S. “must, of necessity, respond” after Trump said Iran shot down a U.S. Apache helicopter over the Strait of Hormuz.

In a statement on Tuesday, Araghchi warned that foreign military forces operating near Iran are at “constant risk on account of their own human errors, plain accidents, or potentially being caught in crossfire.”

He said, “to reduce risk, the best solution is for foreign forces to exit, as soon as possible, an environment which will never be hospitable to a hostile presence.

Araghchi also stressed that the Strait of Hormuz is shared by Iran and Oman, not international waters, adding: “We prefer the language of diplomacy, but speak other languages too.”

Trump Says Iran Shot Down U.S. Helicopter & U.S. Will Respond

A U.S. Army AH-64 Apache helicopter went down near the Strait of Hormuz off the coast of Oman Monday, with both crew members rescued within two hours and reported in stable condition by US authorities.

President Trump said on Truth Social that Iran shot down the helicopter and that the U.S. “must, of necessity, respond.”

Iran’s IRGC Navy claimed it shot down the aircraft after it ignored warnings, targeting it with fire from a speedboat. The Pentagon has not confirmed or denied the Iranian account. CENTCOM had said only that the cause is “under investigation.”
