Death by Bureaucracy by Jiang Xueqin


@isaiahheyward4equality
Babe wake up, the internet's most optimistic professor just dropped

@Randomnumbers-e3r
Bro tf chinese schools are so lucky to have him. Ngl, my school would have kicked him out for genuinely teaching us these hidden gems. He even refused to monetize his youtube channel and allows anyone to copy his material. He is doing the work of God!

@ChanceWilks1991
I love how he drops and apology for not having this uploaded and that it’s going to take time. Then 10mins later we’re here. Loved the take on Paul the apostle

@vaquerosupreme3189
The late David Graeber wrote the book Bullshit Jobs. Very in tune with this lecture. Thanks, Prof Jiang!

@marosuke139
Imagine being the parent of the child in this class who wants them to go to a prestigious university๐Ÿ˜‚ “mom my teacher told me in class today that universities are all just a scam and its pointless to go”๐Ÿ˜‚

@solaryouth
The GOAT is back!

@haktwoah
"We are living in a world that is becoming more and more bureaucratic and it's killing us. Alright, questions?"

@MoeAl-h1t
I’ve been checking the page all day fam

@Dubache
Love your work man, thank you for putting in all this effort to share it widely

@karaoglan4085
Professor Jiang. Thank very much for time, work and efforts from the bottom of my heart.

@quillsandquirks
yes we're so fucking back

@superwalnuts2855
I got to see this kind of thing first hand when I worked for a mid-size video game studio that got bought up and shut down by activision. Those with the hard skills can't say no to money offered by the soft skilled opportunists, and so the actual workers end up losing their power and the fruits of their labor as the opportunists grow in number.

@christianheath718
We got Prof Jiang dropping the N bomb before GTA 6

@rogerzen8696
As a STEM graduate student at Harvard, I can attest to the bureaucracy problem. I think 2/3 of the administrators could be let go tomorrow and it would improve the teaching and learning experience.

@peaceandgraceforjenn
The girl yelling and cussing about Halloween costumes is a hypocrite. She is invading another persons “safe space” with that childish drama.

@andrejmucic5003
As an American nurse I spend 30% of my shift doing BS click "charting" paperwork. Because I fear some bureaucrat nurse that makes 1$ more than I do per hour! We both know it is ridiculous but everyone has a mortgage and debts. So they can become vicious =(

Supernova Love Lollapalooza Paris



In November 2024, K-pop group IVE and French DJ David Guetta released "Supernova Love," blending EDM with K-pop. The track samples Ryuichi Sakamoto’s 1983 instrumental "Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence," transforming its iconic piano riff into a dance-pop anthem. Produced by Guetta and collaborators including Daniel Kim, Toby Green, and Mike Hawkins, the song was part of KDM Records’ cross-cultural project, The Collab X. The accompanying music video, directed by Ivo Heffner, features IVE exploring a cosmic dreamscape in search of love.

Matt Taibbi testimony on Quiet Skies

@scruffyleon7383
Thanks Matt Taibbi for telling the truth and giving explicit examples. It is time for our Government to honor and obey our Constitution.

@Michael-bm2ll
An actual journalist, holy shit.

@1980sKidRick
Courage is so rare. Thanks Matt Taibbi and Senator Paul.

@darrenmiller6927
I see Matt Taibbi as a national hero for the Twitter Files alone. Here is more fire journalism. Certainly one of the greatest journalists of this century. Tulsi Gabbard is also a national hero. Great work Matt. Thank you for your service Tulsi, Matt, and Rand Paul.

@Jeremy-e3w9i
Embarrassing the amount of BS we are all 'just ok with' since the Patriot act... spineless yet driven by emotion in all the wrong ways๐Ÿ™



FORBES: During a congressional hearing, significant concerns were raised about government overreach and surveillance programs under the Biden administration. The discussion focused on the now-discontinued TSA program "Quiet Skies," which was described as a $200 million-a-year "no-fly" list initiative that spied on American citizens at airports, monitoring their travel and habits without ever leading to an arrest or thwarting a terrorist act.

Witnesses, including investigative reporter Matt Taibbi, testified that such programs represent a fundamental betrayal of the Fourth Amendment, where citizens are treated as suspects without predication. The hearing also highlighted issues of censorship, with allegations that government agencies like the FBI and CISA partnered with social media companies to suppress constitutionally protected speech.

A central critique was that the government's intent has shifted towards mass data collection on innocent people, reversing the principle of "innocent until proven guilty" and creating an environment where oversight is circumvented and whistleblowers are essential to uncovering abuses.

Tucker Carlson's Full Speech TPUSA

@fredlawrence1923
Honestly one of the most important political speeches of this generation

@CEO458
This is insane. I’ve waited decades to hear this on a podium.

@oskarwiegaard
Tucker is a G for talking Israel at a VERY PRO FUNDED Israel convention. Not sure he knows๐Ÿ˜‚ lmao

@Johntheheadache
If Tucker "dies accidentally" ...This video should be part of the investigation, cause he went after the top dogs here.

@randomtraveller8116
Dude went ahead and called out everyone. Dems, Trump, Israel. Tucker better install an extra iron door at his house.

@bsimpspoker
I am 36 years old and this is the most hope I have felt as an adult after a speech in this country.

@mandogizmo890
Everyday hard working Americans are fed up. My children and your children have no future if this persists. We are all literally become slaves in a free country.

@brandonmills9577
This speech was so powerful!! This is what America needs now!!! SHUT UP NAZI

@DJBreton
Saw this live. The energy was powerful. Best speech I’ve ever seen.

@obiohaonwubiko8711
This is the GREATEST political speech to date. Bravo Tucker

@Prythian00
"Don't ever let anybody get away with insulting you instead of answering a legitimate question". This..!

@harst8963
If ANYTHING happens to Tucker or Candace WE KNOW FOR A FACT ISRAEL HAD EVERYTHING TO DO WITH IT, ALONG WITH CHARLIE!

@Thegema101
Tucker spitting nothing but facts

@Dixie_To_Denali
Tucker and Thomas Massie For president 2028.

@SergioGonzalez-xz7uo
Black white brown purple don’t matter what color you are one thing we all can agree on is TUCKERS THE TRUTH


The Student Action Summit (SAS) was a multi-day gathering for Turning Point USA aimed at mobilizing and energizing conservative students and young adults. The program included speeches by prominent conservative figures, leadership workshops, networking opportunities, and sessions on activism. It was one of TPUSA’s signature annual events, intended to “activate and mobilize the generation that will boldly defend America’s freedom.”

In 2025, SAS was held July 11–13, 2025, at the Tampa Convention Center in Florida. It reportedly drew 5,000 attendees from across the U.S. High-profile speakers included Charlie Kirk (the founder of TPUSA), Secretary Kristi Noem, Secretary Pete Hegseth, Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Donald Trump Jr., Steve Bannon, Tulsi Gabbard, and others.

The Top 5 Regrets of the Dying

@blancafernandez311
Don’t let anybody steal your soul ❤

@Yesharu1957
Yesterday, early morning, GRIM BEGINS was delivered to my doorstep. Finished reading by bedtime! I'm 68 years old and I may have missed the boat in my youth, but many of these lessons I've learned on my own much too late in life. Thank you for bringing this for consideration to our youth. They need this more now than ever. I do what I can this late hour of my life to instigate critical thinking to others. May God bless the message!

@prunariu
Honour will come!๐Ÿ™☦️

Keep life simple and true.
Honor and respect yourself.
Keep a small circle of true soul friends.
Do not be a follower.
Keep a good dog always by your side.

GRIM⚔LIFE thank you more than you may ever know thank you


0:16 The Book “The Top 5 Regrets of the Dying”
0:55 “I wish I had the courage to live a life true to myself.”
1:06 “I wish I hadn’t worked so hard.”
1:21 “I wish I had the courage to express my feelings.”
1:27 “I wish I had stayed in touch with my friends.”
1:33 “I wish I had let myself be happier.”
2:04 The Suki System controls you, if you chase the material.
2:25 Humans need the immaterial to be happy.
3:01 The material system only works, if you are unhappy.
3:33 Are you happy or unhappy?

The Top 5 Regrets of the Dying is a book written by Bronnie Ware, a palliative nurse who spent years with patients in their final weeks of life. She listened. She wrote down what they regretted most. And if you want to understand life — you have to listen to the people who are dying.

1. I wish I had the courage to live a life true to myself.
2. I wish I hadn’t worked so hard.
3. I wish I had the courage to express my feelings.
4. I wish I had stayed in touch with my friends.
5. I wish I had let myself be happier.

JJ Abrams by Critical Drinker

@DrPokemon2001
"Modern" Star Wars really did ruin a lot of careers. "The future is female." ― Kathleen Kennedy

@zero_d0wn1
Drinker has found a rich vein of content with this series. Well done lad.

@brainflash1
"So what are your qualifications for writing Star Trek?"
"I wrote a sci-fi tv show."
"Was it any good?"
"Can I have Star Wars too?"

@ReddFoxx1562
I was "bullied" by friends and family for saying that Lost, in its first season, seemed like it was just bullshit that was made to seem interesting and will probably go nowhere. Hey kind of like everything they fund these days. Nobody remembered that I said this years later. I still refuse to watch the rest of it.

@brianday873
I’ll never forget my then 9-year-old grandson's words as we left the Odeon Leicester Square having seen Rise of Skywalker on opening day. “That was shite”

@Kant3n
If there's one positive thing I can say about Abrams is that he directs a film competently on the technical level, but he needs to be barred from the writers room.

@genebaker511
After The Rise of Palpatine, JJ finally opened the mystery box, and it revealed the end of his career.

@orkutfinance
Everything by Jar Jar Abrams
1. Whole plot reference to the original source material with a lot of nostalgia bait.
2. Mystery Box writing, where plot twists are answered with more plot twists.
3. When plot twists are too confusing, just pull out more references to the past.
4. Never answer anything.

@HeisenbergFam
Crazy to think Star Wars went from one of the most beloved to the most mocked movie series

@josephhutton7574
When JJ was announced to do Episode VII, I just thought, "Hey, the guy who created LOST! What a fun set up for a show! The ending was garbage but.. wait..."

@muznick
MOAR LENS FLARES!

@doublep1980
The guy is a Hollywood Nepo Baby. His father is one of the biggest TV producers and a former CEO of CBS. Don't feel sorry for him.

@BillPeschel
You can see that as soon as audiences realized he was all foreplay and no climax, he would crash and burn. The man has absolutely no storytelling chops.

@Galen052
It's fascinating how many of these Crash and Burn stories are about people who've worked for Disney in high profile roles the past 5-10 years.

@kyleg1464
"A walking example of the dunning-kruger effect. You can only hide your shortcomings for so long before people finally figure out who and what you are." Truer words were never spoken.


He was once the king of big budget blockbusters, the chosen successor of Steven Spielberg, the man who rejuvinated not one but two of the biggest franchises in Hollywood... Star Trek AND Star Wars! Then it all came crashing down. Join me as I recount the rise and fall of JJ Abrams.
