Felony charges for everyone involved. The larger question is how did the parents raise such a sissy? The abuse through which some of us endured would seemingly crush the typical GenZ faggg-0. I cannot wrap my head around how it is that parents raise children to become Weakmen.

Hs you any specific links perchance? I've not seen much on this prior and would be interested to learn what those boys had up their sleeves in those days.

As many of you must have surmised by now, I trust nobody where politics are concerned. I don't even trust myself, nor Trump .and. by no means whatsoever do I trust Kennedy. That said, I retain my hopes. In the relevant case, I not only hope Trump proves himself as he presents himself, I hope that Kennedy sees all the light and rejects the bankrupt philosophy of the left. The hope is thin.

That's not irony. It is rank, bald-faced, unapologetic hypocrisy. They are lower in status than pedophiles.

What do you mean an actual penis? What'd they do, lop one off and plug it in?

SHHHH... don't give them ideas. They'll get knocked up just to spite you. PS: How do you know they don't sacrifice infants to Moloch? I'm thinking that's why they get themselves knocked up and not to spite you.

The problem is we're using government force to try to achieve this. All that does it add to the cost of doing business. Exactly. Leave it to the free market and things will work out optimally. "Government" ruins everything to which it puts its claw.

I haven't read it because it's over 900 pages!

Businesses need AFFORDABLE labor for profits. The sticking point here is "how much profit?" There is a level of profit where all players win. Business owners walk way with money in their pockets and workers do the same while being able to live a decent life. But that formula is long abandoned. Maximizing profit does not perforce mean squeezing as much as one is able because the reductio ad absurdum of that logic is the killing of the goose laying your golden eggs. The concept of "enlightened self-interest" was tossed into the shit-can long years ago and we are now reaping what we then sowed, and the harvest is meager and shitty. One does not have to be a filthy communist or other brand of economic reprobate and retard to take a view to treating his employees well, in which case everyone wins. There is, however, a vastly complicating factor in all this, and it is one that gets nearly zero air-time: "government" interference in business operations. The manifold and wildly wrong-headed mountains of statutes, regulations, and dog-pile policies that strangle businesses often force owners to take measures in order to be able to continue DOING business. Those measures often impact every aspect of the business in highly negative ways, not the least of which are wages.

I'm not comfortable with anything, lol. The charming lady and RFK Jr don't stand a chance of having any near future impact about anything. They may influence a few minds, though. The problem is that there are zillions of competing ideas vs people in the parties who are really serious about power and winning at any cost. Note that Nancy Pelosi just released a book called "The Art of Power", which sums her up perfectly. The psychopaths always come out on top because they want it so much and every fiber of their being is dedicated to winning. The mass people, every four years, go on about "change" and the only change that happens is things get worse. I listened to a little of the Democrap convention and it's just scary how over the top enthralled those NPCs are. They scream for every speaker like each one is the Beatles. Then we have Trump claiming Taylor Swift is supporting him. FFS. It's all one big clown show and getting more extreme and bizarre every day. I don't think things are gonna turn out well in our lifetimes. The ONLY reason I can think of to vote is to keep the commies at bay.

My favorite historical subject. I'll drop this here, as well as it provides valuable background and is consistent with extant material I've read written by eyewitnesses/participants. It's three parts, all readable with subscribing though I did subscribe because he's done such a great job: I’ve decided to write this brief summary of the Russian Revolution just so that readers of this Substack, at least, can understand where I’m coming from when I post about one of my main areas of interest: The Russian Civil War (1917-1921). I was inspired to do this after I wrote a summary of the Kuban Ice March for a post that reproduced a 1918 pamphlet describing that event and the early development of the anti-communist White Army. Historical documents are tricky because, even if the documents are interesting, the authors (understandably) assumed that readers would know about things that, 100+ years later and several continents away, they don’t necessarily know about. Even a bit of background knowledge can add a lot to peoples’ understanding of these documents. Some notes on this essay: I’m not trying to write a comprehensive history of the period or provide details on all aspects of Russian political life. I will be writing a few of these summaries over the next few months and I have a vague plan to introduce other subjects when they’re more relevant to the main drama. For instance, I don’t mention the Socialist Revolutionary Party, the Kadets, the Menshiviks, or other major political players in pre- and post-Revolution Russia in this essay. They’re all important, I’ll bring them up later, but my main goal here is to create an accessible narrative that the average person walking off the street can understand without much background knowledge. I’m not a professional historian, I work in marketing and dropped out of a film studies program in Canada after one semester, but I do read a lot of this stuff. If you’re looking for a more in-depth examination of the Russian Revolution, I strongly recommend Sean McMeekin’s book The Russian Revolution: A New History. That is, without a doubt, the best summary of these events out there. It’s very well-written and easy to understand. Everyone should read it.

Yes, she is cute. Adorable. First time I've heard. Got about 20 mins and they're talking Bitcoin as a possible solution. I dunno.

Made it nine minutes and that's all I could stand. Left it with him talking about restoring constitution protections while arguing for the continuation of a completely unconstitutional, unaccountable, forth branch of government, the intelligence community. I never liked the Heritage Foundation, anyway.

AFAIK, the only cause of inflation is an increase the money supply. So, does that mean that to reverse inflation the money supply needs to be shrunk? If so, how would one do that? It can't be just tightening credit because the "money" is already out there. Totally agree about Trump and his signing off the worst increase in debt. I was mortified when it happened because I knew what the result would be.

I've seen the Cart Narc do that and people get furious, lol.

I'm in complete agreement with Claire Wolf and, especially, CS Lewis (most evil is banal and petty). Now, what does that have to do with being a lazy bones and not putting your cart back, which is simply a matter of personal responsibility and consideration for others, not government intrusion and theft?

Knowing it and proving it are two rather different things. OTOH, Russia may have no concern with proof, choosing to act on what they know. This is very dangerous brinksmanship. Russia still has plenty of nukes and NATO seems to be very eagerly yanking Putin's chain. I guess my question would be "to what end?" Is the EU so deluded as to think they can crawl up Russia's ass and that Putin will do nothing to defend his land? I'd not make that bet for love or money. I cannot imagine that the globalist gnomes seek nuclear annihilation of Europe, but given the current state of global sanity, who can rule it out? But I have to say that something in all this recent development smells funny. Seriously now, Ukraine rolling into Russia? It seems very unlikely. What's the idea there; to teach Russia a lesson? What irritates me in all this is that all the players are assholes. The Russians: assholes. Ukrainians: assholes. Putin: asshole. Zelensky: asshole. EU: assholes. As things now stand, the entire world is at great risk at the hands of these jerkoffs, and the respective populations do nothing other than circle their wagons in support of them all.

The stupidity of the mean American... or his apathy, or perhaps both, astonishes even myself. The pattern is so long established: nothing will change for the better; Weeye will exercise America's sphincter to ever larger size and the nitwit peons will keep complaining and demanding. Weeye will ignore them, continuing to hammer away as the wantwits cry in frustration and anguish. Weeye shall continue to laugh in their faces and they shall do nothing new to oppose us. Weeye are their Masters. They are our slaves. Weeye rule. They suck it. Does anyone actually believe that Trump will affect changes that are anything more than superficial? I hope he does, but my expectations stand near to zero. Nothing but blood is going to bring our calamitous circumstance to rein. And even were we to engage and emerge victorious, the collective raw, rank ignorance of the Meaner would all but guarantee that we ended up in a position nearly as bad as that against which we fought to free ourselves. Consider how the French Revolution turned out, as well as that of the Russians and Chinese, just to name three. Meet the new Boss; same as the old Boss.

No. He won't stand up. He's not a stand up kind of guy.

That game has been playing for thousands of years. The Catholic church was hip-deep in it for 1500 years at least, for exampe. They forbade the common man from learning to read and speak Latin, while from the other sides of their crooked mouths they moaned about the "seeley and ignorant masses" as they justified their tyrannical reign upon the very conditions they established and maintained with iron fists. We deserve what we get because we tolerate the intolerable. We should be out putting the varlets to their rightfully earned ends. But no, that's too much to ask, and so we live under ever more cancerous tyranny that grows by the minute.

c This is or is not true depending on one's operating definition of "liberal". Therefore, this is a very poorly constructed sentence. Who is this Shellenberger who writes so Blah blah... more loosey goosey semantics. Perhaps I'm being too anal about things, but this brand of writing is a peeve of mine. "Liberal" was coopted by the left and its meaning perverted into what it has become today. So I will agree with the first sentence on the assumption he's not referring to 18th century liberals.
