America’s Escalating Incompetence Crisis
There is an excellent read at Palladium by Harold Robertson about the competence crisis. Put simply, it’s a lot like the recent push to get kids into the local Uni instead of trade schools. There’s a dearth of qualified trade workers. Now, apply that to every occupation becasue of the culture shift.
Google is Trying to Put the ‘Men’ In Menstruate.
The menses are blood and cellular debris from the uterus. Menstruation is the process of discharging that debris. You need one to have the other and a uterus for both. But according to Google, anyone can do it or have it (menstruation), which is silly, but that’s the world we live in now, right?
Victor Davis Hanson – ‘If I Told You Ten Years Ago …’
Victor Davis Hanson has a video that looks to be about a week old, titled, ‘We’ve Never Seen Anything Like This.’ In it, he catalogs the things about America today framed around the idea that if he’d said they would be true ten years ago, you’d think he was just wrong or crazy.
Wokism: The Latest Critical Theory
Marx and Engels wrote the Communist Manifesto in the mid-to-late 19th century, foretelling the coming revolution of the working class over the bourgeoisie— the capital elite. In the 20th century, the critical theory of the times was feminism, the rise of women and their championing of their own rights in the workplace, in professional life, and in public life.
Oliver Anthony – New Song: “Brink of War”
Oliver Anthoy’s online viral success must be driving the progressive elites out of their collective mind. Some hick ginger singing about rich men and sh!t wages and how the system doesn’t give a damn about what it’s doing to regular folks. They thought that was their message.
Is America Suffering From Irreconcilable Differences
His versus hers. Black versus white. The Left versus The Right. Call or label it however you like. Americans are quickly approaching that point in a relationship where all communication and civility ends, and the two sides split up their possessions, friends, and even the pets to go their separate ways.
Resurrecting the Agora as a Physical Civic Space
If there was one massive revolution in global culture, particularly the cultures in wealthy, so-called first-world societies, through the COVID Project, it has been a massive uptick in average daily and weekly screen time among nearly all age groups.
A List of Things You Might Be Too Old to Deal With Anymore
Someone posted a list of “things you are getting too old to deal with anymore,” and it got me thinking. What, if anything, did I find no longer necessary or a waste of my time? I came up with a few, but they might not be what you’d expect.
Woke Churches: Forget About “Our Father” – We’re Going With “The Sparkle Creed”!
NO, you are NOT an “Emotionally Mature Man”; You Fell For The Delusion That Being A Man Is Only Biological.
That cutting off your boobs and perhaps, getting prosthetic “junk” and hopping up on testosterone would be the end-all be-all. These biological women and men that believe they can be the other sex seem to have no idea that the worldviews are completely different and that you just can’t swap one identity for another in … Read more
Liberal Lady Can’t Find a ‘Real Man™’ Who Isn’t Conservative
It is a sad tale of living with the consequences of an ideology that created the problem with which you find yourself. A young liberal woman is fed up with dating liberal men. She wants to find a Real Man™, but they are all conservatives.
The School Just Sent Your 8-Year-Old Son Home With Maxi Pads and Panty Liners …
Arranged marriages and matchmaking are still a thing despite it seeming odd to us in the West. Iran was once much more free; women had more rights and were not required to wear hijab. My point is that culture matters and is defined by what we accept or reject as a community™.
NH v. VT – A Tale of Two Political Cultures One Red and One Blue
Vermont’s legislature is working out the final details of Gov. Scott’s proposed 8.4 Billion dollar budget. Eight billion. That’s over 12,957.00 dollars for every man, woman, and child in the state. Guess how much New Hampshire’s is?
On When Biological Males Should Screen For Cervical Cancer …
The Canadian Cancer Society has some questions about adequately screening biological men who identify as women for cervical cancer. And no, they didn’t mean trans men (biological women who identify as men but have a cervix). They mean biological men who have no cervix.
Dr. Naomi Wolf Apologizes to Republicans and Conservatives For Blindly Believing the Media and the Government
Naomi Wolf has been getting red-pilled a lot in recent years, but the release of the January 6th video has prompted her to write a lengthy piece that includes something rare in the modern era; a full-throated, genuine apology.
Some Thoughts Worth Thinking?
Most of what you are about to read will look like old but solid ground. A series of simple one-sentence ideas that we’ve covered but that looks so good in a list like this that I feel the need to share them again.
“Show This to the Stupid and Nutless NHGOP”
A reader sent me a clip from a John Stossel interview with Jordan Peterson. It’s a short clip, just over six minutes, but it covers two crucial points, one of which they thought might be useful to New Hampshire’s State Republican Party.
If College Was Killing Your Kids, Would That be a Public Health Emergency?
If College Was Killing Your Kids, Would That be a Public Health Emergency?
There have been seven deaths at North Carolina State since the 2022-2023 year began. Yes, NC State has a vaccine mandate for staff and students “with on-campus responsibilities” and a pro-vax culture, so most students are likely vaccinated.
Is Trans a Fad That Will Fade Away? Our Children’s Lives Need it to Be
Damn, I hope so. If you live long enough, you see many social phases come on strong, only to fade away to make room for the next fad. Fifty years ago, when I was walking the corridors of my high school, transgender was a word decades away from being invented, and even gay was a rarity.
