This is the exact thing I wrote about the other day (link in first comment). Psychopaths use ideology to hide their psychopathy. The next step will be for Progs/Wokes to say "she wasn't *really* progressive"

USA! USA!

Stories like this never make it into the Progressive media bubble, so we get the "there are no trans women in the Epstein files" memes...

The Liz Lemon remix ("concrete bunghole where dreams are made up") is better...

Worst presidents: 1. Wilson 2. Nixon 3. LBJ 4. Grant 5. W 6. Trump (he wouldn't be prez if it weren't for 1, 2, 3, 5, and wouldn't have the tools he has without 2, 3 and 5) 7. Biden 8. Buchanan 9. FDR 10. Andrew Johnson

You're goddamn right it does!

@BessByers @Flock_Safety Flock saying "safety is a fundamental right" is the most dystopian thing I've seen in a while.

I’ll take it as a brag when my video does so well @Flock_Safety’s social media team issues a response. Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness are fundamental rights. Your idea of “safety” violates everyone’s liberty. Read the room Flock: We don’t want or need this.

The Kohen Wiley shooting in Mississippi has the makings of a Mike Brown-level outrage situation. The thing to remember is that Progressive/Woke ideologues are completely unreachable right now. They are *only* looking for you to say the approved things. Saying unapproved things, even about waiting for more information, will get you attacked. It will get you blocked and unfriended. The thing to do is to let them rage themselves out. Don't engage.

The only thing that's really bad about @elonmusk becoming a trillionaire is that our currency has been so devalued that such a thing is possible.

Maybe Platner really *didn't* know the meaning of the Nazi tattoo the same way someone in the early 00s wouldn't know that their Chinese characters tat meant "frog puke."

Crazy idea …. How about when we go to baseball games, we just watch baseball, and we don’t have to sanctify the sacred tenets of either genderwang OR Christianity. Would that be ok?

Interesting:

Contrary to popular belief, the period of human history when men could vote but women couldn’t was relatively brief. For most of human history, no one could vote - not men, not women, not anyone. [Link below.]

@ChrisWillx @robkhenderson Is this for marriages? Because I feel like the one-year breakup rate at my primary school was pretty high.

One-year breakup rate by how couples met: Met online: 16% Met through friends: 10% Met through family: 9% Met in a bar/restaurant: 7% Met in college: 6.5% Met as coworkers: 6% Met in primary/secondary school: 5% Met in church: 1% h/t @robkhenderson

@brad_polumbo She sure is mad she doesn't have that much money.

"There’s nothing about his rise to trillionaire status that remotely warrants the level of confused anger it has prompted online." Lefties like Elizabeth Warren are seething over Elon Musk's status as the world's first trillionaire... but I don't think the backlash is justified.

Another major transgender suicide study has collapsed under scrutiny. A Nature Human Behavior paper—widely hyped by media as causal evidence that state protections for minors drive teen suicide attempts—relied on flawed surveys, tiny samples from one state, and shaky methods that ignored confounders. It’s the latest zombie study in this field. Leor Sapir’s relentless, evidence-driven work has exposed time and again how activist research and citation laundering prop up gender ideology against biology and desisting youth. In the gender controversies, a clear-eyed sense of reality (as Isaiah Berlin would call it) like Leor’s is essential. Protecting kids demands rigorous science, not narrative-driven ideology.

It's not hypocritical that the people who spent the last decade posting, chanting and making art installations about the size of Trumps weiner are upset that some UFC dude called Michelle Obama a man. They think those are different behaviors.

I wrote on my @Substack about Graham Platner and how ideology is tailored to give psychopaths a base of operations (link in first comment)
