The purity spiral is fascinating to watch. I just watched Omar say that not only was Charlie Kirk a hatemonger, the people who listened to him are as well. This is not a group of people interested in turning down the temperature.
this is the lesser explored aspect of goebbells' "always accuse the other side of that which you are guilty."
such a practice attracts a certain sort of person, a person riddled with self-hate and self-denial. it's a balm for wounded souls and a way for bad people to play at virtue by projecting their failings onto others. it's a REALLY bad attractor for cluster B traits.
A couple of days ago I wrote that the Democrats were at a crossroads where they could either continue down this path and end up in ruin, or they could pivot hard and try to save their ability to draw the normie center.
If Trump is as bad as they say, there should be plenty of fertile ground to cultivate by doing better than Trump. Instead of that approach, they always choose to directly oppose, which is why they are constantly on the ropes, playing from behind.
Before antibiotics and the invention of the combine, stupidity would eliminate those particular genes via attrition. Some say worldwide IQ has diminished since now all must survive.
I was literally going to comment this about you on your first post 😁🤣 and indicate that my experience has shown people are always true to their nature AND once that nature is deeply embedded it’s nearly impossible to excise. Save for them finding Jesus and we all know their hearts are ruled by very dark forces so that ain’t happening!
Oh, if they pivot it won't be because of a change of heart, it will be because they understand that the current path is a political loser for a generation.
He'll likely be actually cancelled next spring when his contract ends or possibly come back on much, much cheaper terms if Trump hasn't suppressed Antifa by then.
USAID was absorbed into the State Department, which is almost as evil an institution. I keep reading about new woke absurdity occurring even with Trump supposedly in charge. Once Elon Musk was sent packing and DOGE was sidelined the neocons resumed control and it's been business as usual - woke and war - ever since. Yes there seems to be some progress on some fronts, but I suspect it's mostly for show. The momentum of Trump's first month is long gone.
This is an alinsky tactic… if you haven’t read his book”Rules for Radicals” you should… after reading, you can spot their deceptions from a mile away. It’s laughable that they can only regurgitate… there is no individual or original thought, only repeated groupthink from the socialists who pretended to be Americans in the 1930s. When they make a claim, turn it upside down or reverse it..here you will find the truth of their motivations. On a side note, that criminal Hillary Clinton actually wrote her collage thesis on Sal Alinsky! She should NEVER have garnered a single vote from freedom loving Americans…
See Marxist pedagogy Paulo Frierre and the abusive indoctrination of children into victimhood victimizers for trans rights and anti racism etc makes transparent the development of mid level violence political warfare useful idiots per the Maoist cultural revolution schematic. This has been deployed internationally by UNESCO(see website… Emotional Social Learning =child abuse) USAID etc
See also Gramsci and note Obama’s ties to Alinsky. Website beautifultrouble is the public facing toxicity of rules for radicals.
And now psychotherapy is being destroyed (by force of law and professional orgs and for cloaking the political weaponry and emergent via cluster b/ liberal/female dominated practitioners) with woke normalization of the cluster B and transinsanity the resentful leftist narcissists have wrought in our populations
As a person that found himself in a relationship with a Cluster B person and had no idea what that was, your words make sense and that is terrifying. She spent time in a mental facility and the mental disorder was confirmed and yes I had to call law enforcement to sort this out.
For those that really dont understand what Cluster B is, here is a great site to explore these people.
Yes. Grew up with it too a degree but did not understand that until my marriage, and then took another 18 years to learn, process, and finally divorce my ex. Now, it’s easy to see such folks from a mile off.
any system that is not explicitly and deliberately a meritocracy becomes an anti-meritocracy.
A's hire A's, but B's hire C's and will not let A's anywhere near them. then the C's hire D's etc. it's an emergent incompetence cascade driven by people past their peter principles seeking to stave off competition for the post they occupy but are not qualified for.
I suspect the purity spiral has hit rock bottom (well maybe "furries" are still left), and as a result their fear of losing power, in an inverse relationship, is at an all time high.
My Mom used to say “You want to cry? Would you like me to give you something to cry about?”.. that was my cue to stfu…. If I didn’t she would “ Lower the Boom” on me. I dried it up real quick… we, as a Nation, need that… act out, get your ass beat with a belt…
Do you know how many libs in my neighborhood thought Hegseth and Trump "embarrassed themselves and America" yesterday? Three directly - Generals/Admirals' feelings are not relevant to readiness. Good grief!
When she did that, she forced you to learn self control, logic and reason. These intellectual pathways have not been instituted in some of our generations....hence Karen.
That doesn’t work. Believe me, the sane and reasonable who live in SF have tried that for decades. Things have always gotten progressively worse here. Covid was the final straw for me. The only way to move forward is to call their bullshit out. I will not go quietly any longer.
And it’s a very pronounced rage at that. It’s rage on the levels that Hollywood once peppered within scary/suspense films but it’s broken out into the real world. So very glad I no longer live in a big city.
It's not a purity spiral. They're trying to foment a civil war.
The Democrat Party and the globalist forces behind them are hoping to take from a resurgent US both her coasts, plus the Great Lake waterways. They're lining up to have the Northeast (New England down to Maryland), Left Coast (Washington, Oregon, California), and Rust Belt (Minnesota, Chicago, Michigan, Wisconsin, Upstate New York, Erie PA) blocks all try to secede from the union all at once.
There's a reason Trump is strategically moving troops to Portland, LA, Chicago, New York, etc. It's not just optics/protection of law enforcement.
I think it’s both and hopeful that their spiraling will continue to take down any rising voices among them and the Democratic Party for instance will continue to have worthless candidates
That’s optimistic because the Jacobins still permeate and control much institutional power and they can sow chaos to gain more control and yes unto civil war they are willing. Many are that sick, may they reap the whirlwind even better lose the nourishment of the parasitical strangler vine they represent
A receipt for... an analysis based on publicly-available information? No, that's not how that works.
It's simply obvious based on the loudest globalist Democrat voices and Trump's counter-responses to them. It's Hochul, Pritzker, Newsom, Whitmer, Walz, etc.
All are located on the coasts America uses to transport all of her imports and exports. All are very clearly trying to rile up specific groups of brownshirts (illegal immigrants, disgruntled former federal bureaucrats, ANTIFA, Muslims in Michigan, etc.) into a color revolution, and have no intention of "cooling the temperature". Democrat-backed NGOs are on film deciding on the color for the attempt sometime next year (going choice appears to be purple, so watch for that color to start appearing in leftie merchandise in the next 6-7 months).
Trump is responding by bringing the hammer down on these groups before they can fully organize and get public support to overthrow the government. He's sending military to Portland, LA, Chicago, DC, New York, etc. Sure, it's ostensibly to help federal law enforcement efforts, but there are more cities which could use that law enforcement backup which aren't getting it, because they aren't on a critical waterway the globalists are trying to split off from the country.
They're in "if we can't have it, nobody can" mode. I believe they fail in that endeavor, but they may not and we're in serious trouble if they manage to light the fire.
They love guilt-by-association and they can make that association no matter what your stance is or who you are, or what you've even ever said. That's one of their tools.
It’s not hypocrisy, it’s hierarchy. AWFLs fill the emptiness in their souls with DEI mascots and intersectionality shields. They have subverted meritocracy into idiocracy.
The thin idiocy of such a statement is she is referring to vast swathes of people she has never met. It’s a form of bigotry and should be mentally noted for future reference.
It is hierarchy - underpinned by Biological Leninism. The less competent, good, or fit they are, the more they have to lose if they lose favor, the more loyal they are and the more willing to do anything.
college never made brilliance, it just attracted the top 5% of minds. now that it serves 50%, it cannot be the same institution, provide the same service, or provide a marker for the same capability.
it's a broken idea watered down by the adulteration of its participants that mires them in elite overproduction. when you have 40% that think they are the top 10%, a lot of people wind up unhappy.
Crazy that Lutnick recently said they would allow 600,000 student Visas from China, because otherwise the bottom 5 to 10 percent of universities would go out of business due to a trickle up of Americans to more elite schools if foreigners went away. This is exactly what needs to happen!
I’d have loved to give my daughter 13 or 14th grade. Some clever homeschoolers do it by sneaking an extra year in early before 6th grade. (Called “red shirting.”)
Universities are incentivized of course because they receive so much more tuition from out of country students. May not affect schools like Harvard with gigantic trusts but it’s still a motivation.
Higher "education" has turned into a corrupt and fraudulent joke. Four years and $250,000 to "learn" what you could "learn" for free on the Internet in six months. Most "universities" should be turned in low-income housing and the "professors" can try their luck getting jobs at WalMart.
There will still be a need for good educators, but 1) you don't need to be physically present and 2) for each subject you need only 10-20 experts for the entire country to create high quality courses. Khan Acadamy has over 150 million enrolled learners (they don't call them students), which is an orders of magnitude greater reach than any college professor.
I don't know that I agree with the lack of need to be physically present. If we are talking about instruction at the average, and rather poor, level of college instruction, sure, I agree. Really good instruction, however, might well require physical presence as an enabler. Not just for the class part, but the discussion after walking back or in the office, things like that. The interaction seems to really matter at the top end.
I think we have just gotten used to such low standards of instruction that there doesn't seem to be a difference, like if all you expect from dinner is instant ramen, Maruchan is just as good as Top Ramen, or using tap water is just as good as bottled.
I am willing to be wrong here, but we have a long history of thinking the latest technological development will revolutionize education, and it always seems to disappoint compared to "find a good teacher." A strong autodidact can do a lot on their own with books, videos, etc. but for the other 80-90% an actual person, in person, seems to make a big difference.
You might be right, but I don't know of any definitive studies on this. There are many possible factors, one of which is people that see video as "not real" as if it was a movie, so they don't pay as much attention. The attitude is "no one is watching if I decide not to pay attention".
I think that is definitely true. I was teaching during COVID, and when we had to do all remote classes participation dropped like a stone, and previously really engaged students kind of zoned out. And of course they did not come up to ask questions after class or hang out in my office to chat about things.
There is definitely a big difference in being in the same room with someone as opposed to on the other side of a screen, just as there is a difference in being in a room of 20 people and a room of 200.
The ELEPHANT in the room is the fact that Ai will be taking a very large percent of jobs. So for medical students studying for 8 years plus residency the effort may not always be worth it.
Given the quality of new doctors, IMO AI could replace the lot of them…..my take on algorithmic medicine is that not only is it worthless but it’s actually harmful to the health of the citizens
I’m not a doctor but I know that Ai is only as good as the programming and algorithm of course.
I could see the application of laser focused computer analysis useful in identifying obscure disease quickly, or potentially missing obvious factors and misdiagnosing. Right now, even with help from computer databases, the erring humans often manage to prescribe conflicting medications, killing or harming many patients.
Precisely……there’s little revenue stream in a healthy population….these changes have taken place in my lifetime but the acceleration to uselessness started in the 90s IMO
But you must have that expensive piece of paper for certain careers. But perhaps as we build parallel systems there will be alternative versions of those careers that don't require those specific certifications.
The need for the piece of paper in 95% of cases is the result of the SCOTUS decision in Griggs vs. Duke Power, which ruled that any method of pre-screening employees for meeting minimum standards of showing up on time and doing the work was racist, except for a college diploma.
If that got overturned, credentialism would collapse.
having gone through medical school and practicing, I doubt it matters to be honest. As long as med school and residency are rigorous and take only the brightest high school students, it wouldn't matter much. That said, in Pakistan they probably only take those connected or willing to bribe enough.
This is how we ended up with a cadre of retards running Canada for a decade under Trudeau part deux. It's how men pretending to be women get to shower with little girls at public pools and are vigorously defended instead of beaten with a baseball bat. It's how a teacher with a fetish for wearing size Z breasts in class gets to continue teaching instead of being run out of the profession forever.
I dearly hope some sanity returns but a lot of kids up here are lost already.
The woke left (thinks they) could get some real dictating, oops, "democratizing," done if not for those pesky elections, and the serfs being allowed to vote.
They've come up with a solution for that. They use lawfare to control who gets to run for office in the name of "defending democracy". After all, what could be more democratic than limiting the choices of voters?
However, Czesław Miłosz (The Captive Mind) and Václav Havel (The Power of the Powerless) both argued that systems of lies collapse when people stop believing them — even silently, even individually. They showed that truth-telling, or simply refusing to “live within the lie,” undermines the totalitarian facade.
P.S.: My essay, “What the Nash Equilibrium Teaches Us About the Fall of Elites,” reveals how I see the world today. I believe elites often think they can hold power forever by controlling information, using surveillance, and dividing people. But I know from history and theory that no system based on force and deception lasts forever!
I explain, using the idea of the Nash Equilibrium, how there’s always this unstable balance between elites trying to keep control and people fighting to keep their freedoms. Neither side can win entirely without upsetting this balance. When I see people start to wake up and realize they’re being pushed too far, I know resistance will grow, trust in elites will break down, and the system will begin to collapse.
What strikes me the most is how elites keep trying again and again, repackaging the same lies in new ways. They never give up! But this constant pressure splits society until enough of us stand united and push back hard. That’s when the real chance for change arrives.
Despite everything, I am convinced the people always hold real power. When I see unity and perseverance, I see the system can crumble and freedom can be won. This gives me hope and confirms my belief that no matter how strong the grip of the powerful seems, it is never permanent!
this will be an odd one in that the elites have so little capacity for violence, generally the resort when propaganda fails.
it does make me wonder about their seemingly implacable desire to import mercenary armies of people who ARE still prone to violence. replacement theory may well be code to "accept the occupying army bought with gold extracted from the people to be suppressed." this is another time honored last bastion of failing regimes.
I think they tested that idea in 2020. They were off to a good start, but the impetus fizzled out after the first signs of resistance from the center. Without the backing of law enforcement or the military, these mercenaries are just not effective enough, even if law enforcement stands down. Thus the push to defund the police and fill it up with DEI hires or even non-citizens. If the police actively collaborate with the mercenaries, then all pretext of there being an actual "law enforcement" agency dissappear. This would now push the citizens disregard the edicts of government and take up the responsibility for their own security. "I ain't worried. Them Injuns is peacefull." - Fort Apache, 1873.
There are organized groups of socialist gays and trans training in fire arms with use and tactics under the theme of "necessary self defence against MAGA."
The Truth is the truth and cannot be made a lie. In time it will always win because it will survive through all lies. It will shine in utter darkness and can never be extinguished.
Corbett misses this intellectual tradition completely. By stressing only Bernays’ “engineering of consent,” he erases the reverse dynamic identified by Miłosz, Havel, and Solzhenitsyn: when people withdraw belief, the whole edifice crumbles. Czesław Miłosz (The Captive Mind) and Václav Havel (The Power of the Powerless) both argued that systems of lies collapse when people stop believing them — even silently, even individually. They showed that truth-telling, or simply refusing to “live within the lie,” undermines the totalitarian facade.
i would go further and state that the doubling downs are a big part of what accelerates what you term "the withdrawal of belief."
the struggle sessions rarify, the edge lord games radicalize, and their vision of reality becomes more and more divergent and requires greater and greater lies to maintain consistency. and people keep seeing it and each new one who wakes up wakes up another. you can only take absurdity so far before the whole center decides it does not want to be a part of the atrocity anymore.
the men tend to move little by little, the women all at once. watch for the high status females. they are starting to shift and it will be a landslide when they switch sides.
Where are the women shifting? I live in Northern Virginia; everyone I know has a professional degree and/or works for the govt and are still getting their kids covid vaxxed. And we're about to elect the most awfullest AWFL governor.
It will take a lot of time for the culture to shift among the managerial class. Possibly a decade or two. Trump is making a lot of changes. Many of them will seem beneficial after the heat of “orange man bad” we are experiencing dissipates a bit.
Jumping from one train to another is scary. I wonder if we’ll look back upon this time and shake our heads. “It was the Coof generation when everyone lost their minds, even those of high IQ and social standing.”
That assumes the US does not auto-implode first from a crash in our monetary system or war.
Agreed, I'm not seeing much of a shift in any of the self-hating indoctrinated white lefty chicks here in NoVA. Couple that with the almost replacement level Indian H1B scammer invasion and blue NoVA fucks the entire state once again.
I think that is the point though: you start seeing shifts in men because the go one by one, in a continuous fashion. Women, on the other hand, shift not at all and then all at once. So you don't see much shift in those women until one day they all leave the house wearing a different jersey, claiming they never thought otherwise. According to the theory, at least.
I would expect NoVA to be one of the last holdouts, however. That place has a terrible culture. I lived there 7 years or so and man, I have never seen such wide spread self importance and posturing, to the point that people didn't even recognize it any more, it was so normalized.
Systems collapse because elites and citizens alike continue to “play” destructive strategies until equilibrium makes their lies unsustainable. Both emphasize internal failure over external enemies. The real threat lies within ourselves: complicity, complacency, or self-deception. Responsibility is diffuse—ordinary people sustain the very systems that oppress them.
I arrived at the same hypothesis about education majors and midwits with graduate degrees as you did. It was the thought I was having a fraction of a second before I read what you wrote about it. This is coming from a former public school teacher with a graduate degree that I acquired to maintain certification.
"We need better-qualified teachers" was the impetus for "Require more 'education'," but that education was dumbed down to accommodate all those who were already teaching. Those offering the education, though, were rolling in cash after the "standards" were "raised". 🤔
I think this is less an issue of "privilege", "aristocracy" or "elitism" and more an issue of the left creating and living in their own alternate reality. I truly think this is a mental disorder fomented by what was once powerful leftist institutions like the media and education.
I believe smart cat once said these people don't have an ideology, they ARE their ideology. And when that ideology is attacked with actual reality-based truths, they undergo a mental breakdown caused by the cognitive dissonance.
They are so far into the weeds with this non-real reality, I'm not sure how they get out of it.
It actually is "from each according to their abilities and to each according to their greeds” We are mostly governed by post turtles. Most of the ELITES (reg TM) have few abilities of their own. The really smart ones have captured the money and arm the agencies of Law and the Just Us system and the Wall Street / banking system to create and enforce the taxes on the productive people to support their Cleptocracy / Donkeytocracy, and Globalist 'gods' casting dice with the lives of the rest of us.
I think there would be an immense walk away movement if we did not know the present aristocracies would use it to place their minion's boots on our necks. We the people should not be paying most of the taxes we we are subject too. It should be the duty of the elites (who should not even be a thing in a just world). But, no matter what we may want, we are here. I guess we need to vote for better post turtles all the way down.
The democrats are the moral busybody tyrants that CS Lewis refers to when he said, “those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.”
They think they are the good ones because they used to be the party of civil rights, but are now unable to see their own cognitive dissonance when they use ad hominem attacks on those who see it very differently rather than "proving me wrong."
But that said, how many “uniparty” members do we have in congress because we allowed Hamilton and company to get rid of term limits language that was in America’s original constitution:
In my head, the names of the 2 most prominent demoncrap spokesbimbos are more accurately pronounced as Alexandria Occasionally Coherent and Jackass Crocko'shit.
I just love how they label, as Nazis, conservative libertarians. They have not read anything by the founder of the German National Socialist Worker's Party. If they did, they would be staring at a mirror.
I recall there being a study on that, where the authors gave quotes from Mein Kampf to people, some quotes straight and others with nouns swapped, and asked if they agreed with them. A distressing number were perfectly happy and agreed with some nasty stuff so long as it was their particular good guys vs bad guys narrative.
It didn’t happen… research on poling from back then…1968 found that only 2% of democrats moved over to the Republican Party. Research shows that 2% movement from one party to the other is typical during election years…so that’s just another lie from leftist cretians.
Also, the Dems' positions haven't actually changed in 150+ years. Robert Byrd, a higher-up in the KKK, was a revered Senator long after this alleged switch.
And slavery, Jim Crow, and segregation, commies, Nazis and every other form of evil, until it falls out of favor, then it's the worst thing those conservatives ever did, those KKK loving Nazis!
The democrats have always been an evil lot… they started the civil war.. when they lost their ability to shackle Hands & Feet, they simply attached shackles to weak, gullible minds..and are still doing it today…that terrible president LBJ created the welfare state, solely for the black vote, and EVERY SINGLE Democrat congressman, to the man, voted against it. Republican votes passed that legislation.. and the democrats still lie to this very day that they gave black folks “welfare”… when in reality, they put shackles on the minds of almost every black person in our Republic…. Those shackles have loosened over time but the vast majority of Blacks in America still vote for the beast. While Black women across our nation cull their population with the leftist created system of infanticide..
Not so……the original Democratic Party was Jeffersonian…..in my reading of history the downfall came with the adoption of Hamiltonian ideology….central banks, standing armies and this progressed under Lincoln…..the Republican party has plenty of warts as well…..
No doubt. Funded through outright theft. At least with roads or the FAA or whatever, I'm getting something in return for tax. Forcing me to pay some coddled retard to call other people nazis is flat-out theft. Full stop.
Follow the arrows and spend 2 or 3 times as much time in the store as you would have if you had gone the most direct route to the precise locations of the items you were purchasing. The second method is the one I had always used before the arrows were installed, and I did not alter it regardless of their "rules".
A key accelerator is megalomaniacal overreach, going back to BHO (siccing the IRS on Tea Party groups and first amplifying then trying to ruin DJT) and right through today. I thought they'd maxxed out during lockdowns, but boy howdy.
There are two other reasons the worst of the worst are defended with greatest fervor: Donkeys are not smart (mere animal cunning), and they deeply need to rub our noses in their victory through elevating the profoundly indefensible. The more glaringly wrong, the better.
Strategy requires adjusting tactics, learning from and responding to reactions of the enemy and shifts in the environment (aka OODA). [They think strategy is a 120pp document a committee - or consultant! - occasionally produces and everyone immediately forgets.] Lockdowns and free-er speech on X *changed everything* but they were already in the hemophiliac stage of aristo deterioration. They literally cannot read the room from inside their hard-shell bubble. They cannot see Trump 2.0 driving them into the box canyon. They're still relying on their barbarian shock troops, destroying their home bases while 90% of the country gets on about rebuilding our society and economy.
The purity spiral is fascinating to watch. I just watched Omar say that not only was Charlie Kirk a hatemonger, the people who listened to him are as well. This is not a group of people interested in turning down the temperature.

THIS
At leftist pivot toward a reasonable middle ground was never in the cards.
I am eternally optimistic.
Never be optimistic about stupidity..
Before antibiotics and the invention of the combine, stupidity would eliminate those particular genes via attrition. Some say worldwide IQ has diminished since now all must survive.
Commies are not stupid. They know what they are doing.
You can't fix stupid, as they say.

Oh, if they pivot it won't be because of a change of heart, it will be because they understand that the current path is a political loser for a generation.
We don’t have to accommodate them. Kimmel’s viewership has once again plummeted.
Honestly we have no idea if he even had an audience. At this point its my be that they found another source of funding since USAID was shut down.
He'll likely be actually cancelled next spring when his contract ends or possibly come back on much, much cheaper terms if Trump hasn't suppressed Antifa by then.
USAID was absorbed into the State Department, which is almost as evil an institution. I keep reading about new woke absurdity occurring even with Trump supposedly in charge. Once Elon Musk was sent packing and DOGE was sidelined the neocons resumed control and it's been business as usual - woke and war - ever since. Yes there seems to be some progress on some fronts, but I suspect it's mostly for show. The momentum of Trump's first month is long gone.
Not a surprise. Kimmel's still Kimmel.
True, and excellent news. Horrific to watch in real time, but it accelerates the national healing process.
trump is the laser pointer, they are the cat.
They can't help themselves, literally, they are unable to change course because they are cluster b afflicted.

Been there done that. It's so easy to see in certain groups after you've experienced it in a personal

Yes. Grew up with it too a degree but did not understand that until my marriage, and then took another 18 years to learn, process, and finally divorce my ex. Now, it’s easy to see such folks from a mile off.
So true.
And, their current rage is a product of facts being hostile witnesses and that we finally started punching back.
"Bad attractor" ought to be a thing.
They cannot function in a world where merit rules, and reality governs.
Of course they double down - they only achieve in a system of inverted reality.
any system that is not explicitly and deliberately a meritocracy becomes an anti-meritocracy.
A's hire A's, but B's hire C's and will not let A's anywhere near them. then the C's hire D's etc. it's an emergent incompetence cascade driven by people past their peter principles seeking to stave off competition for the post they occupy but are not qualified for.
Biden hired Harris. Harris hired Walz. It really goes just like that.
and, of course, BO hired biden
Right you are, Gato.
Its just crazy.
I suspect the purity spiral has hit rock bottom (well maybe "furries" are still left), and as a result their fear of losing power, in an inverse relationship, is at an all time high.
Pretty sure there's no ceiling with rage.......
There just might be if we ignore them. Just like toddlers acting out in tantrums. I'm at that point personally.
My Mom used to say “You want to cry? Would you like me to give you something to cry about?”.. that was my cue to stfu…. If I didn’t she would “ Lower the Boom” on me. I dried it up real quick… we, as a Nation, need that… act out, get your ass beat with a belt…
Do you know how many libs in my neighborhood thought Hegseth and Trump "embarrassed themselves and America" yesterday? Three directly - Generals/Admirals' feelings are not relevant to readiness. Good grief!
When she did that, she forced you to learn self control, logic and reason. These intellectual pathways have not been instituted in some of our generations....hence Karen.
That doesn’t work. Believe me, the sane and reasonable who live in SF have tried that for decades. Things have always gotten progressively worse here. Covid was the final straw for me. The only way to move forward is to call their bullshit out. I will not go quietly any longer.
And it’s a very pronounced rage at that. It’s rage on the levels that Hollywood once peppered within scary/suspense films but it’s broken out into the real world. So very glad I no longer live in a big city.
American Jacobins
It's not a purity spiral. They're trying to foment a civil war.
The Democrat Party and the globalist forces behind them are hoping to take from a resurgent US both her coasts, plus the Great Lake waterways. They're lining up to have the Northeast (New England down to Maryland), Left Coast (Washington, Oregon, California), and Rust Belt (Minnesota, Chicago, Michigan, Wisconsin, Upstate New York, Erie PA) blocks all try to secede from the union all at once.
There's a reason Trump is strategically moving troops to Portland, LA, Chicago, New York, etc. It's not just optics/protection of law enforcement.
I think it’s both and hopeful that their spiraling will continue to take down any rising voices among them and the Democratic Party for instance will continue to have worthless candidates
That’s optimistic because the Jacobins still permeate and control much institutional power and they can sow chaos to gain more control and yes unto civil war they are willing. Many are that sick, may they reap the whirlwind even better lose the nourishment of the parasitical strangler vine they represent
Good theory...do you have any type of receipt to share for it??
A receipt for... an analysis based on publicly-available information? No, that's not how that works.
It's simply obvious based on the loudest globalist Democrat voices and Trump's counter-responses to them. It's Hochul, Pritzker, Newsom, Whitmer, Walz, etc.
All are located on the coasts America uses to transport all of her imports and exports. All are very clearly trying to rile up specific groups of brownshirts (illegal immigrants, disgruntled former federal bureaucrats, ANTIFA, Muslims in Michigan, etc.) into a color revolution, and have no intention of "cooling the temperature". Democrat-backed NGOs are on film deciding on the color for the attempt sometime next year (going choice appears to be purple, so watch for that color to start appearing in leftie merchandise in the next 6-7 months).
Trump is responding by bringing the hammer down on these groups before they can fully organize and get public support to overthrow the government. He's sending military to Portland, LA, Chicago, DC, New York, etc. Sure, it's ostensibly to help federal law enforcement efforts, but there are more cities which could use that law enforcement backup which aren't getting it, because they aren't on a critical waterway the globalists are trying to split off from the country.
They're in "if we can't have it, nobody can" mode. I believe they fail in that endeavor, but they may not and we're in serious trouble if they manage to light the fire.
Your details make me think you have military strategic planning for a background OR that you had seen this published somewhere.
We know that this would get floated by the globalists if this is their plan.
I had seen someone else make a similar comment to yours previously in another comment section on another site.
This informs me that something is floating about. They already have the chosen colors: blue & red.
Civil war is the best means of eliminating our Constitution to install tyranny. This has been openly discussed for years.
I agree, there will be failure to destroy this nation....but the effort to keep it together may not be pretty.
They love guilt-by-association and they can make that association no matter what your stance is or who you are, or what you've even ever said. That's one of their tools.
One of the reasons I stopped caring what names they called me.
Honestly, at this point, just fucking bring it.
When will that Orange Fascist tone down the Rhetoric!?
It’s not hypocrisy, it’s hierarchy. AWFLs fill the emptiness in their souls with DEI mascots and intersectionality shields. They have subverted meritocracy into idiocracy.
And don't forget the pink p*ssy caps!
The thin idiocy of such a statement is she is referring to vast swathes of people she has never met. It’s a form of bigotry and should be mentally noted for future reference.
I also noticed her "accent" was missing.
Into Kakistocracy
It is hierarchy - underpinned by Biological Leninism. The less competent, good, or fit they are, the more they have to lose if they lose favor, the more loyal they are and the more willing to do anything.

COLLEGE : If you're smart you won't need it and if you're stupid it won't help.
a lovely encapsulation of the cargo cult aspect.
college never made brilliance, it just attracted the top 5% of minds. now that it serves 50%, it cannot be the same institution, provide the same service, or provide a marker for the same capability.
it's a broken idea watered down by the adulteration of its participants that mires them in elite overproduction. when you have 40% that think they are the top 10%, a lot of people wind up unhappy.
Crazy that Lutnick recently said they would allow 600,000 student Visas from China, because otherwise the bottom 5 to 10 percent of universities would go out of business due to a trickle up of Americans to more elite schools if foreigners went away. This is exactly what needs to happen!
90% of colleges need to be closed down. Many student there just finish the education they should have gotten in high school.
Improve standards and consider adding one optional year as well as trade schools. Many countries have a 13th grade.
Has to be 14th grade - 13 is unlucky!
Hilarious!
I’d have loved to give my daughter 13 or 14th grade. Some clever homeschoolers do it by sneaking an extra year in early before 6th grade. (Called “red shirting.”)
Universities are incentivized of course because they receive so much more tuition from out of country students. May not affect schools like Harvard with gigantic trusts but it’s still a motivation.
Higher "education" has turned into a corrupt and fraudulent joke. Four years and $250,000 to "learn" what you could "learn" for free on the Internet in six months. Most "universities" should be turned in low-income housing and the "professors" can try their luck getting jobs at WalMart.
There will still be a need for good educators, but 1) you don't need to be physically present and 2) for each subject you need only 10-20 experts for the entire country to create high quality courses. Khan Acadamy has over 150 million enrolled learners (they don't call them students), which is an orders of magnitude greater reach than any college professor.
That is going to be the future of education. Bring it on! Most "universities" should be plowed under and replaced by corn, wheat, and soybeans.
Yes, but keep the laboratories open - I have some things I want to try.
I don't know that I agree with the lack of need to be physically present. If we are talking about instruction at the average, and rather poor, level of college instruction, sure, I agree. Really good instruction, however, might well require physical presence as an enabler. Not just for the class part, but the discussion after walking back or in the office, things like that. The interaction seems to really matter at the top end.
I think we have just gotten used to such low standards of instruction that there doesn't seem to be a difference, like if all you expect from dinner is instant ramen, Maruchan is just as good as Top Ramen, or using tap water is just as good as bottled.
I am willing to be wrong here, but we have a long history of thinking the latest technological development will revolutionize education, and it always seems to disappoint compared to "find a good teacher." A strong autodidact can do a lot on their own with books, videos, etc. but for the other 80-90% an actual person, in person, seems to make a big difference.
You might be right, but I don't know of any definitive studies on this. There are many possible factors, one of which is people that see video as "not real" as if it was a movie, so they don't pay as much attention. The attitude is "no one is watching if I decide not to pay attention".
I think that is definitely true. I was teaching during COVID, and when we had to do all remote classes participation dropped like a stone, and previously really engaged students kind of zoned out. And of course they did not come up to ask questions after class or hang out in my office to chat about things.
There is definitely a big difference in being in the same room with someone as opposed to on the other side of a screen, just as there is a difference in being in a room of 20 people and a room of 200.
The ELEPHANT in the room is the fact that Ai will be taking a very large percent of jobs. So for medical students studying for 8 years plus residency the effort may not always be worth it.
Given the quality of new doctors, IMO AI could replace the lot of them…..my take on algorithmic medicine is that not only is it worthless but it’s actually harmful to the health of the citizens
I’m not a doctor but I know that Ai is only as good as the programming and algorithm of course.
I could see the application of laser focused computer analysis useful in identifying obscure disease quickly, or potentially missing obvious factors and misdiagnosing. Right now, even with help from computer databases, the erring humans often manage to prescribe conflicting medications, killing or harming many patients.
Allopathic medicine is not designed to HEAL. Only to treat symptoms and create a lifelong market for the drug industry.
Yes I happen to be going through something yet my doctor only seems to be interested in pushing popular medical fads on me.
Precisely……there’s little revenue stream in a healthy population….these changes have taken place in my lifetime but the acceleration to uselessness started in the 90s IMO
Those people who think they know everything are really annoying to those of us who do. LOL!
So you realized that we DO know everything, too. Well ,now it’s two of us…
Building a movement, one know-it-all at a time.....
But you must have that expensive piece of paper for certain careers. But perhaps as we build parallel systems there will be alternative versions of those careers that don't require those specific certifications.
The need for the piece of paper in 95% of cases is the result of the SCOTUS decision in Griggs vs. Duke Power, which ruled that any method of pre-screening employees for meeting minimum standards of showing up on time and doing the work was racist, except for a college diploma.
If that got overturned, credentialism would collapse.
we live in a gatekeeper society....it's for our safety, they say.
In Pakistan they skip a 4 year degree and go straight to medical school. They are taught to game the tests in United States.
having gone through medical school and practicing, I doubt it matters to be honest. As long as med school and residency are rigorous and take only the brightest high school students, it wouldn't matter much. That said, in Pakistan they probably only take those connected or willing to bribe enough.
They aren’t writing many essays at hospital.

This is how we ended up with a cadre of retards running Canada for a decade under Trudeau part deux. It's how men pretending to be women get to shower with little girls at public pools and are vigorously defended instead of beaten with a baseball bat. It's how a teacher with a fetish for wearing size Z breasts in class gets to continue teaching instead of being run out of the profession forever.
I dearly hope some sanity returns but a lot of kids up here are lost already.
Canada is well and truly fucked. I don't believe there's any path to recovery in the current landscape.
Can you even see a way forward? This parliamentary system leaves the opposition completely powerless, reduced to social media posts.
So is the UK.
Only one.
Alberta separation. SK & PQ would follow immediately.
The entire disaster has to be broken apart. That's the only shot we have.
Maybe.
I don't see the political will for an event like this. Canadians are too conditioned to accept the ruling order, especially in Toronto and Montreal.
But massive upheaval is likely the only shot we have.
Now I understand Quebec wishes to exit (in order to be more socialist than they are now.)
With the liberal Canadians now outlawing ownership of guns they have come to that fork in the road
❤️ Go Wexit! ❤️
Canada is screwed & the provinces, with the possible exception of Quebec, are too wussy to go through with leaving. We're well and truly done for.
They’re staring at those size Z hooters
The woke left (thinks they) could get some real dictating, oops, "democratizing," done if not for those pesky elections, and the serfs being allowed to vote.
They've come up with a solution for that. They use lawfare to control who gets to run for office in the name of "defending democracy". After all, what could be more democratic than limiting the choices of voters?
they had to kill democracy to save it
Quoting Sun 'Mew' makes a lot of sense.
However, Czesław Miłosz (The Captive Mind) and Václav Havel (The Power of the Powerless) both argued that systems of lies collapse when people stop believing them — even silently, even individually. They showed that truth-telling, or simply refusing to “live within the lie,” undermines the totalitarian facade.
https://unbekoming.substack.com/p/what-the-nash-equilibrium-teaches
P.S.: My essay, “What the Nash Equilibrium Teaches Us About the Fall of Elites,” reveals how I see the world today. I believe elites often think they can hold power forever by controlling information, using surveillance, and dividing people. But I know from history and theory that no system based on force and deception lasts forever!
I explain, using the idea of the Nash Equilibrium, how there’s always this unstable balance between elites trying to keep control and people fighting to keep their freedoms. Neither side can win entirely without upsetting this balance. When I see people start to wake up and realize they’re being pushed too far, I know resistance will grow, trust in elites will break down, and the system will begin to collapse.
What strikes me the most is how elites keep trying again and again, repackaging the same lies in new ways. They never give up! But this constant pressure splits society until enough of us stand united and push back hard. That’s when the real chance for change arrives.
Despite everything, I am convinced the people always hold real power. When I see unity and perseverance, I see the system can crumble and freedom can be won. This gives me hope and confirms my belief that no matter how strong the grip of the powerful seems, it is never permanent!
this will be an odd one in that the elites have so little capacity for violence, generally the resort when propaganda fails.
it does make me wonder about their seemingly implacable desire to import mercenary armies of people who ARE still prone to violence. replacement theory may well be code to "accept the occupying army bought with gold extracted from the people to be suppressed." this is another time honored last bastion of failing regimes.
That is where we are now as they most assuredly see the handwriting on the wall: their days are literally numbered.
They have chosen to rouse their brown shirted armies, whether they be foreign or domestic, mentally unstable or radicalized devotees.
They would rather burn it all down than surrender their last semblance of power. The old, “if I can’t have it, no one can - especially you!”
I think they tested that idea in 2020. They were off to a good start, but the impetus fizzled out after the first signs of resistance from the center. Without the backing of law enforcement or the military, these mercenaries are just not effective enough, even if law enforcement stands down. Thus the push to defund the police and fill it up with DEI hires or even non-citizens. If the police actively collaborate with the mercenaries, then all pretext of there being an actual "law enforcement" agency dissappear. This would now push the citizens disregard the edicts of government and take up the responsibility for their own security. "I ain't worried. Them Injuns is peacefull." - Fort Apache, 1873.

Spot on. Yes. That's an often unfortunate state of affairs.
The Truth is the truth and cannot be made a lie. In time it will always win because it will survive through all lies. It will shine in utter darkness and can never be extinguished.
Well said.
But instead of collapsing it seems like they are just doubling down and moving deeper into their alternate reality.
Corbett misses this intellectual tradition completely. By stressing only Bernays’ “engineering of consent,” he erases the reverse dynamic identified by Miłosz, Havel, and Solzhenitsyn: when people withdraw belief, the whole edifice crumbles. Czesław Miłosz (The Captive Mind) and Václav Havel (The Power of the Powerless) both argued that systems of lies collapse when people stop believing them — even silently, even individually. They showed that truth-telling, or simply refusing to “live within the lie,” undermines the totalitarian facade.
i would go further and state that the doubling downs are a big part of what accelerates what you term "the withdrawal of belief."
the struggle sessions rarify, the edge lord games radicalize, and their vision of reality becomes more and more divergent and requires greater and greater lies to maintain consistency. and people keep seeing it and each new one who wakes up wakes up another. you can only take absurdity so far before the whole center decides it does not want to be a part of the atrocity anymore.
the men tend to move little by little, the women all at once. watch for the high status females. they are starting to shift and it will be a landslide when they switch sides.
Where are the women shifting? I live in Northern Virginia; everyone I know has a professional degree and/or works for the govt and are still getting their kids covid vaxxed. And we're about to elect the most awfullest AWFL governor.
It will take a lot of time for the culture to shift among the managerial class. Possibly a decade or two. Trump is making a lot of changes. Many of them will seem beneficial after the heat of “orange man bad” we are experiencing dissipates a bit.
Jumping from one train to another is scary. I wonder if we’ll look back upon this time and shake our heads. “It was the Coof generation when everyone lost their minds, even those of high IQ and social standing.”
That assumes the US does not auto-implode first from a crash in our monetary system or war.
I feel for you. I left there in 2021 for the Sunshine State. I'll take Florida Man over NoVa Woman any day!
We moved here in 2019 from LA. The difference is negligible
Agreed, I'm not seeing much of a shift in any of the self-hating indoctrinated white lefty chicks here in NoVA. Couple that with the almost replacement level Indian H1B scammer invasion and blue NoVA fucks the entire state once again.
I think that is the point though: you start seeing shifts in men because the go one by one, in a continuous fashion. Women, on the other hand, shift not at all and then all at once. So you don't see much shift in those women until one day they all leave the house wearing a different jersey, claiming they never thought otherwise. According to the theory, at least.
I would expect NoVA to be one of the last holdouts, however. That place has a terrible culture. I lived there 7 years or so and man, I have never seen such wide spread self importance and posturing, to the point that people didn't even recognize it any more, it was so normalized.
Systems collapse because elites and citizens alike continue to “play” destructive strategies until equilibrium makes their lies unsustainable. Both emphasize internal failure over external enemies. The real threat lies within ourselves: complicity, complacency, or self-deception. Responsibility is diffuse—ordinary people sustain the very systems that oppress them.
Awful. Their attitude refers to the late Bonhoeffer (he was murdered by the Nazis in 1945) 'stupidity' thesis.
"you can only take absurdity so far before the whole center decides it does not want to be a part of the atrocity anymore."
Absurdity like this?

Which high status females have started to shift?
Could be. Right on target.
The war goes on till one side wins.
I arrived at the same hypothesis about education majors and midwits with graduate degrees as you did. It was the thought I was having a fraction of a second before I read what you wrote about it. This is coming from a former public school teacher with a graduate degree that I acquired to maintain certification.
"We need better-qualified teachers" was the impetus for "Require more 'education'," but that education was dumbed down to accommodate all those who were already teaching. Those offering the education, though, were rolling in cash after the "standards" were "raised". 🤔
I think this is less an issue of "privilege", "aristocracy" or "elitism" and more an issue of the left creating and living in their own alternate reality. I truly think this is a mental disorder fomented by what was once powerful leftist institutions like the media and education.
I believe smart cat once said these people don't have an ideology, they ARE their ideology. And when that ideology is attacked with actual reality-based truths, they undergo a mental breakdown caused by the cognitive dissonance.
They are so far into the weeds with this non-real reality, I'm not sure how they get out of it.
100%
And the people we see crying the loudest would be incapable of achieving in a merit-based system, so they work against the return to normalcy.
They bent the knee and they wore the mask:
"it's the same picture"
It actually is "from each according to their abilities and to each according to their greeds” We are mostly governed by post turtles. Most of the ELITES (reg TM) have few abilities of their own. The really smart ones have captured the money and arm the agencies of Law and the Just Us system and the Wall Street / banking system to create and enforce the taxes on the productive people to support their Cleptocracy / Donkeytocracy, and Globalist 'gods' casting dice with the lives of the rest of us.
I think there would be an immense walk away movement if we did not know the present aristocracies would use it to place their minion's boots on our necks. We the people should not be paying most of the taxes we we are subject too. It should be the duty of the elites (who should not even be a thing in a just world). But, no matter what we may want, we are here. I guess we need to vote for better post turtles all the way down.
nice quote. may steal.
steal away
the juxtaposition of "post turtle" and "jasmine" would be hilarious if it were only a joke.
The democrats are the moral busybody tyrants that CS Lewis refers to when he said, “those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.”
They think they are the good ones because they used to be the party of civil rights, but are now unable to see their own cognitive dissonance when they use ad hominem attacks on those who see it very differently rather than "proving me wrong."
But that said, how many “uniparty” members do we have in congress because we allowed Hamilton and company to get rid of term limits language that was in America’s original constitution:

Love the C.S. Lewis quote. It’s one of my favorites. I was going to post it but you beat me to it!!
In my head, the names of the 2 most prominent demoncrap spokesbimbos are more accurately pronounced as Alexandria Occasionally Coherent and Jackass Crocko'shit.
I like "Occasional Cortex" and "Jasmine Ratchet".
Just thinking….
Wasn’t it the democrat party that created and/or supported the KKK?
Maybe its time they cancel themselves.
"THE PARTIES WERE SWITCHED BACK THEN" - people who can't explain how
The "Immaculate Switch"?
Sooner or later we're gonna see it for covid, too.
Hmmmmm. Interesting. I’ll put a yes to that, sir.
I just love how they label, as Nazis, conservative libertarians. They have not read anything by the founder of the German National Socialist Worker's Party. If they did, they would be staring at a mirror.
I recall there being a study on that, where the authors gave quotes from Mein Kampf to people, some quotes straight and others with nouns swapped, and asked if they agreed with them. A distressing number were perfectly happy and agreed with some nasty stuff so long as it was their particular good guys vs bad guys narrative.
It didn’t happen… research on poling from back then…1968 found that only 2% of democrats moved over to the Republican Party. Research shows that 2% movement from one party to the other is typical during election years…so that’s just another lie from leftist cretians.
Also, the Dems' positions haven't actually changed in 150+ years. Robert Byrd, a higher-up in the KKK, was a revered Senator long after this alleged switch.
I've heard that a few times, just before they start crying.
And slavery, Jim Crow, and segregation, commies, Nazis and every other form of evil, until it falls out of favor, then it's the worst thing those conservatives ever did, those KKK loving Nazis!
They still secretly love slavery.
We should have picked our own cotton
The democrats have always been an evil lot… they started the civil war.. when they lost their ability to shackle Hands & Feet, they simply attached shackles to weak, gullible minds..and are still doing it today…that terrible president LBJ created the welfare state, solely for the black vote, and EVERY SINGLE Democrat congressman, to the man, voted against it. Republican votes passed that legislation.. and the democrats still lie to this very day that they gave black folks “welfare”… when in reality, they put shackles on the minds of almost every black person in our Republic…. Those shackles have loosened over time but the vast majority of Blacks in America still vote for the beast. While Black women across our nation cull their population with the leftist created system of infanticide..
Not so……the original Democratic Party was Jeffersonian…..in my reading of history the downfall came with the adoption of Hamiltonian ideology….central banks, standing armies and this progressed under Lincoln…..the Republican party has plenty of warts as well…..
Was the democrat party formed from other political parties?
Intellectuals = unmitigated retards. Has even one of these bums led anyone to a better world?
Haidt, Pinker, Peterson... Yes, some of them have.
More often than not they are a detriment, though.
“More often than not they are a *funded detriment, though”
No doubt. Funded through outright theft. At least with roads or the FAA or whatever, I'm getting something in return for tax. Forcing me to pay some coddled retard to call other people nazis is flat-out theft. Full stop.
Trust the experts, even though they have barely room temperature IQ's!
i have some nice arrows on the supermarket floor for you all to follow!
That one! Seriously!
Follow the arrows and spend 2 or 3 times as much time in the store as you would have if you had gone the most direct route to the precise locations of the items you were purchasing. The second method is the one I had always used before the arrows were installed, and I did not alter it regardless of their "rules".
and when you get in line to pay, I have floor markings showing you precisely where you can stand that are exactly 6 feet from your fellow shopper.
And the plexiglass shields at the checkout! 😄🤦
A key accelerator is megalomaniacal overreach, going back to BHO (siccing the IRS on Tea Party groups and first amplifying then trying to ruin DJT) and right through today. I thought they'd maxxed out during lockdowns, but boy howdy.
There are two other reasons the worst of the worst are defended with greatest fervor: Donkeys are not smart (mere animal cunning), and they deeply need to rub our noses in their victory through elevating the profoundly indefensible. The more glaringly wrong, the better.
Strategy requires adjusting tactics, learning from and responding to reactions of the enemy and shifts in the environment (aka OODA). [They think strategy is a 120pp document a committee - or consultant! - occasionally produces and everyone immediately forgets.] Lockdowns and free-er speech on X *changed everything* but they were already in the hemophiliac stage of aristo deterioration. They literally cannot read the room from inside their hard-shell bubble. They cannot see Trump 2.0 driving them into the box canyon. They're still relying on their barbarian shock troops, destroying their home bases while 90% of the country gets on about rebuilding our society and economy.
