@aryehazan @pegobry_en You don’t view “I, a guy, want to marry another guy and have sex with that guy and the two of us will raise children” as fundamentally about dismantling the body, gender, family and society?

New NBC poll: Men: Trump 52%-40%. Women: Harris 58%-37%. Tocqueville: "If one asked me to what do I think one must principally attribute the singular prosperity and growing force of this people, I would answer that it is to the superiority of its women."

@feelsdesperate it is for such occasions that PTT coined "Everest of stupid"

Somehow midwit leftist Jews manage to be the stupidest people on the planet, even with their 110 IQs.
Completely blind to the predictable consequences of their ideological enthusiasms, and then when they figure it out they become hysterical.

@purplcabbage @aryehazan perhaps you could pitch in with PTT's crowdsourcing effort

this is sad, since political affinity should not dominate dating
opposites attract!
Wesley Yang@wesyang
58 percent of women and 34 percent of men aged 18-34 think that saying "there are only two genders" is a red flag in a partner The public at large has never been propagandized to believe made up nonsense so rapidly

@orthonormalist @esrtweet consider that Jews (and American Jews in particular) are not a monolithic group but rather cluster into two major and very disparate clusters, which I've been calling A/B

> There's this concept of tikkun olam in Judaism, repairing the world as a religious duty. It's expressed in both religious and secularized Jews as a persistent attraction to social-reform causes. Jews want to fix what's broken about society - which, in the abstract, is quite admirable. But...
I have been told by much more educated jews that, much like liberation theology, this is somewhat ahistorical progressivism wearing Judaism in a skinsuit
English

American Jews perplex the hell out of me. I like their food, I like their humor, I like their culture in general, and most of all I like their IQ distribution. If you're a gentile but you select your friends for being bright, it is statistically inevitable that a lot of them are going to be Jewish.
(Full disclosure: genetic assays on my family suggest that we have a few percent of Ashkenazic markers. But my family has never thought of itself as Jewish and I don't self-identify that way.)
The recent wave of virulent public anti-Semitism would greatly disturb me even if I didn't, in general, like Jews as individuals. Because I consider the Jews the canary in the civilizational coal mine - any society that treats them increasingly badly is probably in the process of flushing itself down the toilet of history and will certainly become a hostile environment for brainy gentile me before very long.
But I said that American Jews perplex me, and here's why. They seem to be incapable, for all their above-average intelligence, of grasping how large a hand they themselves had in creating the monster that is now stalking them.
There's this concept of tikkun olam in Judaism, repairing the world as a religious duty. It's expressed in both religious and secularized Jews as a persistent attraction to social-reform causes. Jews want to fix what's broken about society - which, in the abstract, is quite admirable. But...
They keep buying into Marxism, either directly or as critical theory and "social justice". Jews disproportionally give their money and their leadership abilities to collectivist ideologies which will inevitably turn on them - because to a would-be totalitarian, the thinker and the Jew and the cosmopolitan are always a disruptive threat.
I've been watching this colossal, self-destructive error play out all my life. It doesn't take much study of history to see that Jews, especially secularized Jews, have been repeating this mistake almost en masse since the mid-19th century if not earlier.
Why? Why? You guys are smart enough to dominate the Nobel prizes and yet you keep failing to see the bloody obvious. For your individual and tribal self-preservation, you ought to be the staunchest anti-Communists and anti-socialists anywhere. Collectivism isn't good for anybody, but it's especially deadly to Jews.
Instead, when Stalinists stuffed you in boxcars you failed to connect the dots so comprehensively that the red-diaper Communist families in the U.S. are still predominantly Jewish generations later.
Nazis murdered six million of you and you still don't get that racial identity politics is poison? How can you be so blind?
Today, it's the hard left in the US, again, organizing "anti-Zionist" demonstrations that are working themselves up to become pogroms, and judging by your voting and donation patterns you *still* don't get it.
Can anybody honestly tell me that American Jews are waking up? I'd like to think so, because we need you on the side of liberty and individualism. History doesn't make me optimistic, though, and that colossal blind spot continues to puzzle me exceedingly.

@xndr365 @SealOfTheEnd @oteycoueye @KeenanPeachy I fail to see any relevance
you're the one talking about moral purity
I am talking about pragmatic strategy and its consequences on the ground
the more you push for abortion bans the more abortion you will get
English

@posttenure @SealOfTheEnd @oteycoueye @KeenanPeachy Of course, we're not obligated to make the gentiles do tshuva.
The question is for those who support this or that political action, how much you should discard your principles, and when do you reach the stage of "Neo-Leninists are the real transphonbes".

How many babies born alive have died gasping in trash buckets? I’m sure the answer would be unbearable to contemplate

@xndr365 @SealOfTheEnd @oteycoueye @KeenanPeachy folks, there's all kinds of horrific, barbaric evil going on all over the world
for me to personally intervene is a rather high bar
English

@xndr365 @SealOfTheEnd @oteycoueye @KeenanPeachy I'm not sure I'm even commanded by God to intervene in that sort of thing outside the land of Israel
English

@oteycoueye @posttenure @KeenanPeachy If someone has genes bad enough that they're okay with killing a non-defective infant of theirs, what's that to me?
Do I want more people like that out there? Obviously not.
Their infants, their problem.
English

@oteycoueye @KeenanPeachy I'll say it's barbarism w/o hesitation
certainly won't support it
but won't hand power over to the dems over it
how promising is this long-term?
idk
civilizational prospects are grim either way
God hasn't always been merciful to those who put their faith in Him
English

@posttenure @KeenanPeachy Watching infants being slaughtered and saying nothing or even indirectly supporting it is the last-to-be-eaten strategy
English

@oteycoueye @KeenanPeachy no, ofc not
I hope nothing I said indicated that I would
gotta draw clear lines and defend them to the death
other people doing abortion to themselves is not my red line
English

@posttenure @KeenanPeachy I put my faith in God. I certainly won't participate in any strategies based on being the last one to be eaten by the crocodile.
English

@oteycoueye @KeenanPeachy if you believe that the people/location you've chosen will be able to withstand the onslaught, you're either a wide-eyed optimist or have truly cracked the secret to life
English

@posttenure @KeenanPeachy Depends where you live, how you live and whom you live with
English

@oteycoueye @KeenanPeachy not sure that's any more effective at keeping the barbarian hordes away from you and your family
just b/c you take no interest in them doesn't mean they won't take an interest in you
English

@posttenure @KeenanPeachy In that capacity, I've checked out of the shitshow you call a society.
English

@posttenure @KeenanPeachy My viable alternative for whom? Are you asking me to speak in my capacity as God-emperor Trump? Or as a normie voter?
