Most of the Wall Street Journal is behind a paywall but I stumbled across this post that had the important bit in the clear – the video:

It’s EASY to Make Shared Misery “Equitable”! – Freedom vs Coercion
With ad hom attacks thrown in. Yes, I’m getting more militant on Treehugger – time for us ALL to heed Glen Reynold’s admonition to Conservatives and Libertarians to “punch back twice as hard” and that’s what the deal is here. Take the eco-socialists words and turn them right back on them. Make them come out … Read more
Notable Quotes – only Tyrants like using the Scapegoat Technique
Politically, there are few ideas more potent than the notion that all your problems are caused by other people and their unfairness to you. That notion was the royal road to unbridled power for Hitler, Lenin, Mao, and Pol Pot – which is to say, millions of human beings paid with their lives for believing … Read more
Second Announcement – GraniteGrok Will Go Dark TODAY at 2pm
UPDATE: 2 hours warning!
It will take a “couple” hours is what we’ve been told to move to the new server. Time enough to get an incremental RESTORE from our current server onto what will be our new one – 3X better than this one.
The Wisdom of AOC on Burglars and Victims – A Victim’s Response
I am ashamed that I graduated from Boston University, the same place that turned this dope-ette out into the wild. It doesn’t help that Ibram Kendi is a professor there and NO one has ridiculed him off campus for his lazy equity rhetoric.
Where Bidenflation Has Gone Full Monty and Where It Is Still Hiding in a Closet
I grew into adulthood when inflation this bad ran over the country – thanks, Jimmy Carter! Now, President Asterisk (aka, SloJoe Biden) is out to make himself #1 while we’re getting put into the hopper.
Announcement – GraniteGrok will go Dark on Thursday, 2/17, at 2pm …
But not for long, we hope. Thursday at 2 pm is when we are migrating from our current server to one that is 3X more powerful as I remarked before.
We’d Like Your Thoughts on the New “Edge” Ads …
We’re moving to a new server that 3X the power compared we have now. Since nothing is free, that is doubling our hosting costs. So, we tried a deal with the ad server that does those ads.
It’s EASY to Make Shared Misery “Equitable”! – Part 4
When the other side resorts and is left only with ad hominem retorts, it’s a WIN! Especially as you remain cool, collected, and drawing merely on foundational principles via example.
Which Is Worse – Their Presence or Their Absence?
I’m referring to those Canadian truckers using their Big Rigs to make statements in various Canadian cities with Ottawa, Canada’s capital, being the main and first target.
Thanks to the Cancel Culture Dartmouth College Administration: “Dartmouth Republicans Secure Free Speech — by Fleeing Campus”
Really, from being bastions of Free Academic Research and Debate to backing up Cancel Culture. A great thing to have done, Dartmouth College. You’ve created an atmosphere of fear and repression that your students fear retribution. Do you consider this your Mission Accomplished?
It’s Almost Town Meeting Time in NH – And Petition Warrant Article Machinations Have Already Begun
Here in New Hampshire, we have the old style town meetings where everyone in a town gets together to hammer the final budgets for the town and schools spending. There’s generally a bunch “warrants” (or articles or questions) about all kinds of sundry things like appropriating money for new equipment like police or fire vehicles, … Read more
Friday Open Thread – So, are you as overwhelmed with all that’s going on as I am?
The faster I run, the more behinder I’m getting. Partly because I still haven’t learned to say “no, thank you” as much or as fast as I should be (or have). I’m betting that many others in activists circles are the same way – we need more hands! So, you overloaded as well? But as … Read more
GrokTV: Dartmouth College Republicans present Dr. James Lindsay on “The Rise of Identity Marxism”
Last night at the Tuckerbox Restaurant in White River Junction, VT, the Dartmouth College Republicans presented Dr. James Lindsay on the topic of “The Rise of Identity Marxism“. In his almost two hour presentation and Q&A session, he weaves a multi-threaded recounting of how Marxism came to the United State, found out that it was … Read more
It’s EASY to Make Shared Misery “Equitable”! – Part 3
“How Can We Make 1.5 Degree Lifestyles Equitable?” is a POLITICAL issue and not just an environmental one. And it’s one thing to be green but they keep pushing this into the political realm by “asking” everyone to be like them.
LIVESTREAM: The Dartmouth College Republicans Present Dr. James Lindsay on “The Rise of Identity Marxism”
I’m up north at Tuckerbox Restaurant in White River Junction, VT for the James Lindsay Event sponsored by the Dartmouth College Republicans.
[Update for the Update] Here’s the updated poster for the Dr. Lindsay event
IMPORTANT – as Steve said – the location has changed and it is outlined in red below. And because I just fell on black ice taking out the Grandson to the school bus, it’s unclear if I will make it up to White River Junction to do the livestreaming (fell REALLY hard on my left … Read more
A Middle-School Teacher Calls Parents ‘Bigots’ And ‘Kooks’ For Voicing Concern Over Pornographic Material In Books
What we are seeing, in the Left-leaning teaching profession, is a complete disdain for Parents. They believe that Parents should have no role in the education of their children.
Where’d My Memory Go? The Left “Redistributed” it Away
If you don’t know where you came from, then any road in front of you is acceptable. If you don’t know what didn’t work in the past, why worry about what lies in front of you?
