How Jordan Petersen has preserved his sanity is almost beyond comprehension.

Good point.

We still need to bring him around on the COVID narrative. His voice has been conspicuously absent in this embodiment of the tyranny every author/book he recommends admonishes against. WeтАЩre trying to arrange a conversation between him and Dr. Mike Yeadon to wake him up on this issue. He would be a powerful voice to have on our side.

I've wondered why he has been silent on this. It is a far great threat to liberty than the absurd pronoun police. Truly the fight of the century.

He is recently recovered from a grave illness and still seems a bit frail to me. And this is one hell of a fight. Perhaps that is a factor.

Regardless, I hope you and the good doctor are able to elicit his support. His audience is gigantic and it could really make a difference and we need all the help we can get.

If we can win in Quebec, we can win everywhere.

Let's go Brandon.

Someone said that although JP is against mandates, he also said exasperatedly, тАЬJust get the damn jab!тАЭ

I was giving him a grace period because of recent experiences, too, but heтАЩs been back in the swing for a while and should of all people know better. That said, he didnтАЩt make the best decision about his own medication last year, but given the traumatic results, youтАЩd think heтАЩd be even more cautious.

Here is the thread where we discussed the possibility of Dr. Yeadon engaging in a discussion with JP: https://boriquagato.substack.com/p/kitten-corner-drug-testing-on-mancubs/comments

That is exhilarating news about QuebecтАФthank you so much for sharing it! We just need to keep tipping dominos тАж

Lovely. Not sure how I missed this.

Good on you.

It just occurred to me that perhaps we could trigger the lunatic left even more by using "LGB" as an acronym.

I mean, given they've added like 27 letters it should be back up for grabs, right?

*lol* I did have to look twice when I saw that acronym used for the first time and thought it might cause some amusing confusion!

I remain convinced we will prevail if we do not lose our sense of humor and instead use it to maximum advantage.

The left has become truly ridiculous.

That is their weakness.

Agreed! Humor is our secret weapon. They own the culture, education, media, and corporations, but we have humor, wisdom, truth, integrity, and resilience, which gives us the edge in my mind :-)

And they are utterly humorless. None of their comedians are funny. At all.

They've resurrected Jon Stewart, who was great when he was on Bush II back in the day, but even he has now devolved into an establishment mouthpiece.

Pathetic.

тАЬMen, it has been well said, think in herds; it will be seen that they go mad in herds, while they only recover their senses slowly, and one by one.тАЭ

InterestingтАФJon Stewart had been showing some signs of rationality and appeared to be distancing himself from the growing insanity. Sad to hear he succumbed.

Just ordered the Charles Mackay audiobook as it sounds right up my ally! Just finished Gustave Le BonтАЩs тАЬThe Crowd: A Study of the Popular MindтАЭ and am working my way through тАЬThe Psychology of RevolutionтАЭ now.

Dave Smith had a Part of the Problem podcast on him awhile ago, eviscerating him.

MacKay is fantastic. One of the few the cliche "it should be required reading" is actually apropos.

Have not read Le Bon yet, but it is in the pile.

I recently managed to finally secure, at some expense, a copy of Walter B. Pitkin's *A short Introduction to the History of Human Stupidity". Simon and Schuster 1932. Rather gratifying that it was stolen from Michigan State University, which used stolen money to publish it.

It is over 500 pages and was printed in 1932.

The second edition would probably be 5000 pages.

Move Le Bon to the top of the pile pronto! тАЬThe CrowdтАЭ is a quick read, and every sentence is chillingly relevant.

тАЬA Short HistoryтАЭ looks like quite a findтАФespecially considering how much itтАЩs going for at Amazon! YouтАЩre right about the 2nd ed. ЁЯШЖ
