What is "The Driftglass Challenge"?
Easy.
Go back to 2013 and try to warn your friends and allies about the future that's coming down the pike.
This future. The one where Ben Carson, Ben Shapiro, Ken Starr, and Glenn Greenwald are on Fox News yucking it up with Laura Ingraham.
Then watch as they mock you as a drooling, jackbooted O-Bot lunatic.Coming up tonight on the #IngrahamAngle—@HUDgov’s Ben Carson, @benshapiro, Ken Starr, @WisenbergSol, @ggreenwald. 10p ET @FoxNews— Laura Ingraham (@IngrahamAngle) March 18, 2019
Ah, but of course that's impossible isn't it?
There is no going back.
The only available direction is forward, and so we go forward, hoping to navigate the shoals and storms of the future by learning the lessons it has to teach us so that we might avoid making the same mistakes over and over and over again.
Which is why anyone who lies to you about the past and demands that you go along with the lie -- anyone who insists that it's just too risky to go poking around there looking for explanations and accountability -- cannot be trusted.
Behold, a Tip Jar!

So if I take the DG challenge.
Will you ensure that when I go back in time. I will get there way ahead of the T2 Hewitt-bot.
That I have some time to prepare to stop it's destruction of the human race
before it arrives on AM radio.
Sure they can be trusted... to fuck up the future by lying in the service of their twisted agenda, hidden or otherwise.
One could probably safely bet the rent on that, if one could find someone daft enough to take such a wager.
