The cultural formation of the last decade, in which disagreement is hate speech and facts are disinformation, ends here, and can only end here: It ends with a political culture that literally does nothing but chant its slogans. Watch this and see what it is:
I know you probably don't have a lot of readers left on the "left", but I have a question for those who still remain:
If -- because of politics -- you now claim that men came become women by saying they are and that we must perform "gender-affirming" surgeries on minors................is there any limit at all to what you're willing to say for your team? Is there a line that is "too much"?
(I expect most of your readers crossed that line long ago)
The comparison that keeps coming up for me is with the people who came to power with the French and Russian Revolutions. They were completely ideological, and they made no attempt to convince their critics.
Chanting. A behavior that is often associated with religious practices but utopianism is a religion so...
The Left seriously catalogues "oppressions" and disabilities then uses that to create a hierarchy of the aggrieved. Whites of course have to get particularly creative. Why do you think a vegetable like Fetterman is feted and celebrated? My koolaid drinking stepson claims 6 "box tickers" amd expects the world to accomodate him. We truly live in Clown World or Bizarro Earth when the unstable and incapable are celebrated. I want the Good, the Beautiful, and the True; it is all that matters now.
The coincidental irony of this post is that just yesterday I was walking in the park by my work and saw a random duck quacking like crazy nearby for no apparent reason, and it reminded me of political activists with bullhorns leading chanting for their mob. This is all gonna get a lot worse, I’d wager. It’s only the beginning of this madness.
These people make about as much sense as the last 4 minutes of the studio version of "Life's Been Good" by Joe Walsh on the album "But, Seriously Folks".
I recently commented on an article on Sky News (Australia) and had to rewite it five times to remove 'hate speech'. As a person who has scrutinised legal drafts and public documents for my department, and who has written thousands of articles and a few papers and books, I should imagine I am as competent as most at editing a comment as required by stated media policy, yet in my opinion, not one word could have even remotely be regarded as hate speech.
It is now apparent that this is pure repression of free speech.
According to the propaganda of our education system, we fought two world wars to defend free speech. Clearly, a third is now required. Editors, consider yourselves forewarned, this time around we will be taking no prisoners. All who repressed freedom must face prosecution and the death penalty.
More psycho babble bullshit from the peanut gallery. Are you kidding me?!? These people are too stupid form a line let alone have influence with anyone else.

Dr Iain McGilchrist, retired from Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, describe the mental issues thoroughly in The Master and His Emissary (2009). A shorter summary of his thesis is in his book Ways of Attending: How our Divided Brain Constructs the World (2018).
In reading these you will discover why leftist mindsets are hard to persuade against their own worldview. Simply put, hyper-rational mental constructs tend to be impervious to real world experience. You cannot debate them into questioning the premises of their mental constructs. This is crucial. Since most of their mental constructs are based on verbal theorizing and attempting to mimic practices learned at universities, their mental constructs rely on those practices and those practices ONLY.
It is the reason why tradesmen (plumbers and electricians, etc.) hate engineers and carpenters hate architects. The university-trained do not like to have their idealized visions questioned or altered. The ideal is god. The tradesmen just say, “Yeah, but it doesn’t work.”
The hyper-rational build airtight castles in the sky and pay no attention to the lack of foundation in the clouds (or lack of stone, wood, electrical wire . . .). What condition is known for “building castles in the sky”? Once you figure that out, you can start to understand the real problem.
Omaha west suburbs, NE Senate District 6, she went to University of Nebraska Omaha for her Masters in Public Administration. I'm thinking even for that area, this is her last term.
Something so Monty Pythonesque as that Nebraska clip needs a Pythonesque resolution. I’m thinking the last few seconds of the fish-slapping dance, or maybe the Sixteen-Ton Weight.
This is a mentally ill person, meaning Jeffery Marsh, plain and simple and somehow today we are normalizing this type of behaviour. If even ten years ago you had walked up to any man on the street behaving this way and dressing that way you would have crossed the road to avoid them. I had an encounter with a transgender activist in the 1970s when I was working as a reporter. I conducted a radio interview with this person who was threatening blowing up bridges in Winnipeg on St. Davids Day to protest prejudice against trans. Back then few even knew what it was including me. I was in my early twenties, some 40 years ago, but rememberthe behaviour of that person at the time. The interview I conducted and aired on the radio resulted in trans person being charged with public mischief. Police had come to the radio station seized the tape of the interview and then proceeded to interview me. The trans was arrested and charged. Once he was released on bail he began to harrass me sending threatening postcards to my radio station addressed to me. When I eventually had to go to court to testify for the Crown, what struck me the most about this person was the vileness and anger they directed at me, somehow blaming me for them being charged, when all I did was what they wanted me to--interview them and air it. It was compltely unbiased, gave them a platform they wanted and they 'hung' themselves, but blamed me. Here was this person I had never seen before overweight, long dirty hair, smeare maked up and wearing a dress and wearing rubber boots. I always remember the rubber boots, but again spewing hate at me. How is that not someone in serious need of help? Many behave no differently today. Oh and by the way the Crown lost their case and that was in the 1970s

For those willing and able to to serve, this would seem to suggest that this could be an opportune time to consider a run for state senate.

Shouldn't have watched the senator while eating breakfast...🐒
Clearly, only ducks understand the quacking and only ever will.....
