The article's premise is flawed, but its content is mostly correct. There's nothing inherently wrong with conservatism becoming more Catholic. However, it wrongly conflates mainstream "normie" Catholic conservatives (e.g., Catholic Answers and Catholic adjacent YAF) with radical integralist utopians. Its strongest point is the critique of utopian integralism: the belief that subjugating America to their version of the "Catholic Church" would solve all problems. This fringe view. rejected by the Vatican, U.S. bishops, and most practicing Catholics. appeals especially to disillusioned young men by blaming society rather than personal responsibility. It's both un-American and unrealistic, and mainly empowers moral grifters who claim superiority without engaging real complexity. The real harm is that it undermines genuine Catholic conservative influence (Supreme Court justices, organizations, cabinet officials) by smearing the whole movement as radical. The article weakens itself with overly broad strokes and shaky pro-evangelical theological arguments.

Absolutely spot on. I have been telling people to read Neil Postman’s “Amusing Ourselves to Death” NOW for almost 20 years, and this is why. Postman destroys one of our society’s most naive assumptions, namely, that newer technology is somehow neutral.

Remember when front groups funded by left wing foundations erupted last summer over the sale of “non-park federal lands?” This is what they were protecting. Prime real estate in the Bay Area, paved over wasteland, just sitting there. And they’ll repeat the whole tantrum the second we bring up federal land sales again.

Understand thee are only two ways they can prevent you from using a VPN: * Egress and/or ingress port blocking (which is typically unsuccessful, as there are always ways around it) * Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) at the border of every in/egress point in the state. Both require, essentially, establishing a Great Firewall around the physical network connectivity of the state -- every copper line, every fiberoptic line, every cell tower, every microwave downlink. This can be achieved either by inserting additional physical equipment, or by obtaining the cooperation of every ISP and telco doing business in the state. DPI requires inspecting the contents of every single packet transiting the network, identifying the protocols in use, and blocking the traffic based on the contents of the traffic. Either way, it is absolutely not something you want, and sets an extremely bad precedent.

‼️🇺🇸 Utah is about to become the first US state to legally target VPN use as part of online age verification. The law goes into effect Wednesday, May 6, 2026. 🔴 If you are physically located in Utah, you count as a Utah user, regardless of whether you use a VPN, proxy, or any other tool to disguise your location. Websites are now legally responsible for age-verifying you anyway. 🔴 Sites that handle "material harmful to minors" are banned from sharing instructions on how to use a VPN, or from offering any means to bypass geofencing. The EFF calls this a "liability trap." Websites cannot reliably tell where a VPN user actually is, so the safest legal move is either to block every known VPN IP outright, or to force ID-based age verification on every visitor worldwide. Either path subjects millions of users to invasive identity checks, regardless of where they actually live. The Cato Institute put it bluntly. When a policy can be defeated by a privacy tool millions of people legitimately use, the policy is the problem. The collateral damage is, as always, the people who actually need VPNs: 🔴 Journalists protecting sources 🔴 Domestic abuse survivors hiding from stalkers 🔴 Activists in hostile environments 🔴 Remote workers tunneling into corporate networks 🔴 Travelers banking from abroad 🔴 Anyone who simply does not want their ISP, employer, or data brokers reading their traffic This is not staying in Utah. The UK's Children's Commissioner has called VPNs a "loophole that needs closing." France's Minister Delegate for AI and Digital Affairs has named VPNs as "the next topic on my list." The EU is rolling out age verification across all 27 member states by end of 2026, with EVP Henna Virkkunen openly admitting they have no plan for VPN bypass yet. Utah is leading by example. EFF: "Attacks on VPNs are, at their core, attacks on the tools that enable digital privacy."

@ManuelSConde @allie__voss I mean... Breast cancer is extremely easy to detect and treat, unlike prostate cancer. But I think it'd be more accurate to say the Susan G. Komen org is a scam.

I understand finding it frustrating when certain things are funded over others But “They found a cure for [simpler thing] before they found a cure for [more complex thing]!!!” is outrage bait I refuse to fall for
Zoya🕊️@Zoya_ki_batein

They invented a wheelchair for immobile sperms. From forcing their bodies on ours, men are now forcing their imapired sperms on our eggs but Endometriosis and PCOS remain un cured and under researched. THEY FOUND A CURE FOR BAD SPERMS BEFORE ENDOMETRIOSIS!!!
