If it ever came to be, it would be mandatory “social service” and people would work for “immigrant rights,” black interests, and the LGBT cause

Her parents were illegal immigrants. Her husband was an illegal immigrant who got DACA. This person should not even be in America, much less serving as a member of Congress.

Master thread on the 2015-2022 closure of the Internet, the process by which every major Internet platform went from broadly open with a few basic guidelines to strict narrative enforcement, often with the collaboration of govts and outsourcing moderation power to NGOs.

Trads love to enjoy the West as a fallen state which has succumbed to materialism, and so on goes the gesture. Its actually the opposite, the West is the only place to so consistently delude itself with "higher things", detachment, aloofness, and—exemplary here—insincerity

Have liberals ever come up with a rebuttal to this? I’ll wait

America under Joe Biden still exists - look at California, look at New York City, look at major Metropolitan districts. Minority violence, soft on crime judicial policies, anti-White DEI.

@herandrews Gay Race Communism. GRC. Done. ✅

Normally I consider debates about ideological taxonomy pointless, but the left in America is undergoing a major transformation right now and we really need a name for the new thing. “Wokeness” is totally inadequate. “Third Worldism” is better but still imperfect.

Sharpie deserves the publicity. It invested in robots and workforce training that led to average wage increases of 50% with no headcount reduction, while also increasing production speed by 3-4x, boosting quality, and not raising prices. wsj.com/business/sharp…

The only way to preserve the good parts of the old "elite" consensus while discarding the bad parts is for the old elite itself to adopt RW populism. But this is very unlikely to happen, because the worst parts of the old consensus were a form of two-faced self-dealing that allowed the old elite to profit from public service and influence indirectly ("indirectly") to compensate them for avoiding naked corruption. Generally speaking the pattern here is some anonymous person or persons in the White House is doing insider trading on the timing of Trump announcements and may have made thousands of dollars; meanwhile Nancy Pelosi's net worth is nearly $300 million, widely believed to be almost exclusively from trading on Congressional information. A Trump official is traveling on "official business" and appears to be having more fun than most people do on their actual vacations, whereas a Democrat infrastructure bill with have $700 billion in direct giveaways to Dem constituencies with no deliverables attached with $200 billion in actual infrastructure. And on and on. Medicaid fraud, SNAP fraud, construction fraud, Burisma... So what is the pattern here? In general (and I think this pattern likely holds up in other countries as well), populist impropriety is more brazen, more vulgar, more clueless, and "elite" impropriety (quotation marks because we all know we're talking about people like Nancy Pelosi) involves gains that are are 3 orders of magnitude if not 6 orders of magnitude larger. The political hacks who understand the of not being brazen, not being vulgar, of consulting a lawyer before YOLOing, only very rarely embrace populism. Why? Because while they can advocate for murderers and rapists, or replacement migration, or transing kids without their parents' consent and still have a career in politics or media or NGOs, if one of these people puts on a MAGA hat they are setting their social networks on fire, because they are threatening those 6 orders of magnitude of "sophisticated" corruption. So anyone with an elegant aesthetic revulsion at crude ways of benefitting from politics is very unlikely to cut themselves off from future employment as a matter of principle. To breed a principled elite that is not tempted by any form of corruption, neither the petty forms because they're ugly and demoralizing, nor the masked forms because they cripple the state and mortgage its future, would be a massive undertaking. It is probably far too late for that. We just need to accept that realistically there is a choice between vulgar politicians and robber politicians.

People bicker over whether to call this “third-worldism,” but you do see common propaganda threads here and elsewhere: the ideology is resentment-driven, civilization-skeptical, and obsessed with upending, cathartic violence enacted by the “historically downtrodden” (ie “wretched of the earth”).

@CityBureaucrat @ChicagoContrar1 The respectable commentariat calls it “wilding”. Let’s mind our p’s and q’s.

@ChicagoContrar1 Wilin' season has begun

An estimated 400 teens are running amok downtown on State St. and Michigan Ave. It's an absolute mess. CPD contact tells us some teens have mace and tasers. Teens were tasing people. One teen has been hospitalized. Multiple arrests, multiple fights. Tact Teams sent downtown. A curfew was imposed at 10 p.m. This is probably just an "isolated incident," and we urge you not to demonize unruly teens.

Japan but for white people

its crazy that you put a woman in front of a telecommunications device and they just automatically start taking their clothes off

All those illegals who are paying $40 per yoga class are safe now. 🤣
