The primary achievement of social media to date has been to document the prevalence of untreated mental illness.

Wesley Yang@wesyang·
The reason not one Democrat has been able to moderate on trans inclusion in sports is that they are stumped by Chase Strangio's conundrum: moderating on sports would mean accepting and acting on the (true) premise that trans girls aren't real girls. (They are boys.) Any claim made in the sports domain also applies to all other sex-segregated domains. Contrary to claims made by would-be moderates on this issue, there is simply no way to give ground in any domain without acknowledging the basic falsehood at the foundation of a movement that exists to deploy state power to force people to affirm. The transgender movement designed it this way, to permit no retreat on any front, by making its appeal based on a truth claim: "trans women are women." The advantage of this truth claim was that it resolved every question at once. The problem with this truth claim was that it was, in fact, untrue, and self-evidently so, such that it could not withstand any scrutiny and could only be upheld through a societal campaign of repression which it became the responsibility of the political party endorsing it to enact. All those seeking to triangulate on this issue are forever caught in this impasse, which is why no one tries to escape it, and those who do try find themselves quickly ensnared and unable to do anything about the deep unfairness that this agenda forces them to inflict on a generation of girls. As a result, there are male rapists and murderers in women's prisons across Blue America, and parents having their custody stripped from them by courts if they won't affirm a harmful falsehood that will leave their children sterilized, and millions of children being trained to hate and fear and seek to destroy those who reject false secular dogmas taught to them from the earliest age as the only truth. There can only be a clean break wherein people admit that we have to stop propagandizing children to believe falsehoods, stop acting like it's morally compulsory to treat a falsehood as if it is true, stop punishing people for telling a truth, acknowledge that all of this is profoundly corrosive to the moral and epistemic foundation of a reason-based society in a way that matters to every other aspect of a reason-based order, and that in fact threatens the continuation of that order precisely because the institutions that are stewards of this reason-based order have become infected by it more than any other faction of society. The whole thing has to be scrapped. Of course we have no precedent for societal institutions going all in on such a self-evident falsehood and thus we have no roadmap for how to pull back in a way that saves enough face for those responsible for inflicting this on society to consider doing so. In the process of inflaming this ludicrous travesty of a civil rights movement, a subpopulation of hundreds of thousands of children have been memed into existence, told their lives depend upon the fulfillment of impossible promises that can never be true, told that the non-fulfillment of these impossible promises is a form of genocide, and as a result we already see members of this subpopulation routinely acting out in the form of murderous rampages planned or executed by mentally comborbid youth who were told that pretending to be something they are not would be the resolution of all their problems, and that the whole world not being compelled by law to participate in upholding the falsehood that they've been told their existence requires is violence. This is the Democrats' -- and societies -- dilemma that it may or may not have the resources to solve.

The best available evidence that I am familiar with says that in pure electoral terms the most potent things for Democrats to moderate on are affirmative action, teacher pay, gender/kids stuff, fossil fuels, and harsher punishment for property crime. nytimes.com/2026/03/16/opi…

"He’s not a Nazi. There is no evidence for that beyond the SS Totenkopf tattoo that he proudly wore on his chest until someone called him out on having the most evil, antisemitic symbol imaginable on his chest for years and years, which he then he got it covered up, but only after he knew it was hurting his electoral chances and not out of shame, as he has attempted to explain. This is just a smear campaign by people who don’t like his politics and/or don't like Nazis."

@keithdorejel Most liberals can't define fascism, and if you want to see how racist they are, gain their confidence that you're a 'fellow liberal' and ask what they think of Clarence Thomas. They'll curse epithets that would make a KKK Exalted Cyclops (like Democrat Senator Robert Byrd) blush.

Every problem in western society is instantly solved by 1) executing violent criminals 2) repatriating foreigners If “democracy” stands in the way, then I don’t want democracy. If “diversity“ is offended, then I don’t want diversity. Somebody press the easy switch already.

If both parties MAXXED OUT on gerrymandering, the House would end up with 262 Republicans to 173 Democrats -- according to leftist FiveThirtyEight. That's because Republicans control more state governments with multiple districts, and Democrat voters congregate in cities. This makes it easy-peazy to pack Dem voters into fewer districts. Time to play hardball. Let's do it . . . NOW!

Graham Platner isn’t just our best and only chance to beat Susan Collins, he’s a good, decent man who’s struggled and grown and is always trying to do better. I hope everyone with reservations takes a little time to get to know the real life version of him, not what the algorithm throws in our faces. Clearly, that’s what so many people in Maine have done - from all different walks of life and political persuasions.

The USA would have a much higher standard of living if we only had 200 million people instead of 350 million. There is not a single thing that has improved by importing 100 million people from the 3rd world and letting most of them get on welfare, food stamps and Medicaid.

I’ll never understand why libs went after normie Republicans so hard (eg Romney in 2012, the SPLC going after milquetoast pro life groups, etc.). Libs had a defanged, captured opposition who were happy going 60mph in the same direction the Left was heading towards at 90 mph and who just wanted things to be a little more ‘free market.’ Libs should have buttressed Chamber-of-Commerce Republicans. That they didn’t and instead tried to anathematize them was a generational political error.

I’m sorry but we can’t have a manufacturing base anymore because a boomerlib wouldn’t be able to make as much money off wine re-sales
New York Magazine@NYMag

As a small-business owner, wine importer Victor O. Schwartz has plenty of reasons to dislike the president’s policies. For almost 40 years, Schwartz has owned and operated VOS Selections, an importer and distributor of fine wines from 16 countries. Tariffs on wine have frustrated his industry since 2018, making the already heavily taxed business of sourcing from small farms and importing bottles from abroad more expensive. When Trump’s second-term tariffs were first announced last April, it looked like an even worse disaster for American wine importers than the first term. But the tariffs were also when he realized, unlike so many frustrated by Trump, he had an opportunity to do something. The weekend after the announcement of the tax on imports, a relative mentioned that their law professor, Ilya Somin, had put out a call for plaintiffs to challenge the tariffs. Somin a ragtag crew of small businesses who wanted to file a case against the administration: a tackle store on Lake Erie in Pennsylvania, a pipe manufacturer in Utah, a women’s cycling brand in Vermont, the maker of a banana-shaped synth in Virginia, and, eventually, Victor Schwartz and his wine-importing business. Within a few days, Somin, together with attorneys from the Liberty Justice Center, asked Schwartz to be the lead plaintiff. Read more from Matt Stieb’s conversation with Schwartz about how he and his fellow plaintiffs overturned Trump’s tariffs and earned a $166 billion refund: nymag.visitlink.me/tfzyVs

@1Nicdar None of these 4 are capable or reproducing in the images shown. Nancy Pelosi used to be hot. I hate her politics, but she was legit pretty way, way, way back in the day. If it was to save civilization, and we are talking a childrearing-age Nancy, of these 4 it is a no-brainer.

A lot of people are stupid. Yglesias OTOH I think is smart but often plays dumb when he senses that being openly honest and aware will carry social penalties. A lot of what libs profess to believe absolutely can be explained by social competition and incentives. This hits home to Yglesias and it’s a little humiliating to him that it’s so transparent and so that’s why he’s lashing out like this.

We need 150 million mass deportations, and Europe will need help driving out the foreigners at some point. We have a long struggle ahead of us. Embrace the suck, stay patient. Toughen up. We're going to need real men and warriors to clean up this mess dumped onto us by Boomers.

What do you think we should have done to address codified racism in America? Nothing at all? Or was just making the law colorblind enough? After centuries of subjugation, instantiate formal equality and then say “good luck”? Every time right wingers complain about how liberals deal with racism, they conspicuously leave out any alternative ideas that grapple with correcting injustice. Almost as if they don’t care

This is the logic of disparate impact, which is found all throughout anti-racist thought. The idea here is that, you know, even if we don’t have any evidence of racist intent, we should still be really worried that people are secretly doing racist stuff. And since it’s possible to be secretly racist in a way that provides no evidence of racist intent, we need to give government a lot of power to investigate any situation in which the relevant pie chart doesn’t map exactly onto the demographic distribution of the country. We just have to do this, because there could be all kinds of people with secret racist motivations. How could we ever really know if these people aren’t acting out of hidden racial intent? This is the demand for a kind of paranoid, invasive overseer who is always checking to make sure that the outcomes perfectly match the census, so that we don’t accidentally let some secret racists pull one over on us. It’s a completely absurd way to operate a government, a legal system, a university, etc.

Dear Senator Sanders, Oh, this is RICH. This is so perfectly, exquisitely, weapons-grade rich that I had to put down my anatomy exams and just... appreciate it for a moment. The man who got thrown out of a SOCIALIST HIPPIE COMMUNE in Vermont in 1971 — after THREE DAYS — for refusing to do any actual work while everyone else planted, harvested, and hauled water, is out here telling me the OLIGARCHS want to control everything. Three. Days. The communists gave you a longer trial period than most employers give to someone who steals from the register. Here is what Jim Quinn's Law Number Two says, and I want every single person reading this to tattoo it somewhere useful: "If you want to know what liberals are up to, pay attention to what they accuse conservatives of doing." Senator, you OWN THREE HOMES. A Burlington residence. A D.C. townhouse. A $575,000 vacation lake house in North Hero, Vermont — purchased in 2016, the same year you were touring the country telling college students the system is rigged. Your net worth sits somewhere between $2.5 and $3 million. You have pocketed over $2.5 MILLION in book royalties since 2011. That elevator is clearly not stuck between floors for you, is it. And then — THEN — during your "Fighting Oligarchy Tour" with AOC, you spent over $550,000 in CAMPAIGN FUNDS on PRIVATE JET TRAVEL. Half a million dollars on luxury jets to lecture working Americans about the dangers of wealth. When Fox News caught you boarding a Bombardier Challenger 604 — a jet that runs up to $15,000 PER HOUR — you did not apologize. You did not even blink. You looked directly into the camera and said, and I am quoting this verbatim because it is the most accidentally honest thing you have ever said: "You think I'm gonna be sitting on a waiting line at United?" Senator. THAT IS OLIGARCHIC THINKING. That is TEXTBOOK "the rules apply to you people, not to me." That is the elevator music of every single billionaire you have spent 35 years pretending to oppose. In a battle of wits with your own stated beliefs, you showed up completely unarmed. Thirty-five years in Congress. You know what your personal legislative output looks like? Eight bills passed. EIGHT. In three and a half DECADES. That works out to 0.23 bills per year. I have produced more graded anatomy exams in a single semester. Your two greatest solo legislative achievements — the ones with your name on top, the thing YOU actually DID — are the naming of a post office in Danville, Vermont, and the naming of a post office in Fair Haven, Vermont. You named. Two. Post offices. You are as useful as a screen door on a submarine when it comes to actually passing legislation, but you want me to believe you are the vanguard of the working class. That sounds like a YOU problem. Quinn's Law #25: "Liberals are great at giving away other people's money." You have been living PROOF of that law for 35 years. You give away everyone else's money — from a vacation home on a lake — while spending half a million on jets because you are far too important to wait in line with the taxpayers funding your lifestyle. You want to talk about oligarchs controlling the media? You have been IN the media for four decades. You just finished a $75 million documentary. You have a book deal. You have a podcast. You HAVE the megaphone and you are using it to tell people that other people have the megaphone. The gene pool really needed a lifeguard for THAT particular reasoning. I am a high school science teacher in Northeast Ohio. I support a family of six on a teacher's salary. I am not particularly impressed by a man with three houses, $550,000 in jet receipts, and 0.23 bills per year telling me he stands with the working class. More famous than wise, Senator. More famous than wise. The hippie commune knew it in 72 hours. How long is it going to take everyone else? IF you agree: LIKE this post so the algorithm shows it to people who need to read it. SHARE this. COMMENT below — do YOU think a man with three homes and a half-million dollar private jet habit speaks for working Americans? Tell me. And if you want MORE of this — the data, the history, the science, the stories — JOIN Bski's Classroom community on X or YouTube. But what do I know — I am only a science teacher who can actually do math, a retired Army combat medic who knows what genuine sacrifice looks like, and apparently one of the few people left who finds it suspicious that the most vocal enemy of oligarchy just cannot bring himself to wait in line at the airport with the rest of us. @JoJoFromJerz @GuntherEagleman @catturd2 #MAGA #Veterans #Trump
