The Morning Rant
YET MORE PROVERBS FOR 2021
A wise man's heart inclines him to the right, but a fool's heart to the left.There are three things that progressives crave, yea, four things that they diligently seek: status, power, adulation, and other people's money. If the government is allowed to ignore the law in an emergency, then the government will create emergencies in order to ignore the law. Who has real power? Whoever is not permitted to be laughed at. When Republicans screw up, that's the story. When the Democrats screw up, the Republicans' reaction is the story. (h/t Jim Treacher) Hate has no home here, but vengeance has a master suite, resentment is in the guest room, and entitlement sleeps every night on the couch. (h/t Berserker-Dragonheads Division) Conservatives bring knives to the gunfight, but progressives bring guns to the knife fight. Journalists give awards to one another for the fake news they publish and FBI agenta pat themselves on the back for stopping conspiracies they themselves incite. Marxists hate capitalism, but they really love money. (h/t kbdabear) Women tend to be liberals because they need the government to replace all the males they've pushed out of their lives. Hating women is misogyny. Hating men is feminism. There are no independent fact checkers. If there were, the media would ignore them and big tech would censor them. (h/t Pat Condell) Never take history lessons from people who think the world started the day they were born. (h/t G'rump928(c)) We can be reassured that the GOP has our back -- mostly with a knife in it.(h/t J.J. Sefton) Like a den of lying weasels or a clown car crammed with traitors, so is the weekly Bulwark staff meeting. Things are not getting worse, they are getting uncovered.

So much for hyper-rationalism. I knew something was going weird with him way back in 2015, when he announced that he liked Bernie Sanders. Trump Derangement led him to vote for Clinton the next year, and last year he abandoned all pretense of being a libertarian to pen a gushing love letter to Joe Biden after the election. He also is a pro-vax crusader, and high-fived Gavin Newsome when the latter beat the recall. I used to be a big fan, but no longer. The pronoun crap is even contaminating the magic show.

Things never get worse, they just get bad in a new way. What used to be targeted at one group is targeted at another. What used to be hidden is done blatantly in the light of day. What was once celebrated is attacked.
Evil has always been with us, sometimes hidden more than others, and sometimes targeted at people we didn't know well or were around enough to find out about.

Jillette is a weed-and-polyamory libertarian, or, you might say, a lolbertarian. He's got the moral compass of a derelict ship.
You see this a lot with people in reaction to their children. I don't know if it is guilt, a desire to protect or their child (who they undoubtedly love), a desire to bond with their child, or something else.

I always thought Jillette was the type who was strong enough to go against the grain. First time I saw him crack, he was coming out against Palin as being a moron.
Then, he allowed for the fact that there may be a tape of Trump saying racist things from The Apprentice. Not that he had seen it or was in a room when it happened, just that it might exist.
He's a spineless shit, just like the rest of them.

Such utter bullshit. It's been almost 60 years. Release the documents already.
You know the only reason they're delaying the release is because there is something in the documents that implicates the government. If all the docs did was confirm that Oswald was the lone gunman and no Deep State ops put him up to it, they'd be happy to release them.

I can only imagine that if you have a teen who embraces this, and all ther friends, teachers, social media, etc. tell them it's amazing and that you must cut anyone negative about it from your life, that you have to tread very lightly. Especially now that in some cases, they will push to remove the child from your home if you try to stop it. It is evil.

It's normal for teens to distance themselves from their parents and seek out alternative sources of wisdom. What's not normal is society telling them that their normal insecurities mean they need to make radical, irreversible changes, and that's normal.

A large number of teens are in counseling of some sort, and those guys don't get paid if you get any better. Plus their modern theories are a terrible mess.
Every kid feels like they are weird and wrong somehow, that they don't fit in and aren't doing things right. Its easy to twist that into "maybe you're someone other than who you have been told you are."

Unless you're the child of a social media executive. Then you don't get a smartphone. Or a tablet of your own. Or your own PC. Or your own television. Or any unsupervised screen time at all.
No, if you're the child of a social media executive, your media consumption is tightly regulated and restricted and you have no screens of your own or in your bedroom.
It's almost like they might know something about it and keep it away from their kids...

There ya go. The "be better" me tries not to curse, but vulgarity is not cursing though our dumbed down culture wouldn't know or care.
Vulgarity was considered uncouth, impolite especially in mixed company, and a social marker of the lower classes. That's why parents didn't want their children swearing.
Now that every tween girl punctuates every point with fuck or some other swearing, it seems to have lost its power and fun.
Let's face it; a guy that knew how to swear and when could really make a joke or a point.
Now? Eh, it seems to have lost something.

Tomboy hits puberty, realizes she's a pretty girl and starts wearing dresses. Used to be a normal thing. Now it's a tragedy because she won't become "trans-gender" and get herself surgically mutilated and celebrated on instagram.

Like I said, it's just a germ of a thought.
It is a form of gnosticism, sure. They reject physical reality and insist that their emotional reality is the core of their being. Most reject the concept of a soul or spirituality (although you do get the new agey 'two spirit' stuff sometimes), but they substitute that with emotions and "inner being" and so on. Its basically the same old stuff.

Also known as most people.
Gen X pissed Boomers off right out of the gate, as soon as they hit the workforce, because they didn't care about status. They didn't show the proper "respect". What's that - other than a refusal to recognize someone else's status ?
Millennials are addicted to adulation. They get it from their mentors. Their mentors ain't Gen X.
And politics is all about growing political power - and using it. The argument between the GOP and DNC is what to use that power for - but they never really bicker much about the growth of that power. Only where to aim it.

Modern prog ideology is a surprisingly simple toddler-tantrum against objective reality, led by psychopaths and maintained in the middle-ranks with lord-of-the-flies woke posturing.
You can make a lot of arguments about the nature of reality and whether there is any objective aspect actually accessible to us - in the navel gazing cosmology sense - but once you've departed from the place on the map labeled "even if you don't believe it, it behooves you to act as if you do", you are in mental-illness land.

"When you don't believe in God, it's not that you believe in nothing, it's that you'll fall for anything"
or something like that.

The right spent decades on doing so, and sad of right now a whole bunch of those writers joined the left.
So...perhaps we should stop worrying about the footnotes and ride the wave of what actually gets traction with the public?

Right. Similar to the John Adams quote (the Founding Fathers were libertarians before libertarianism was cool) -- you have to have a fundamentally moral, decent, just, and self-motivated populous, which we no longer do.

Mrs. Wolfus No. 2 tried to convince me that the origin of the word was the sign for legal sex on medieval battlefields, "Fornication Under Consent of the King." Leaving aside the fact that idiomatic English would have "by consent of the king," and that she also tried to convince me that she and I interpreted colors differently because, get this, her eyes were blue and mine brown . . . I never bought that story.

Mailer couldn't use it in The Naked and the Dead and settled for "fug" instead because of late-Forties publishing censorship. The story goes that when he was at a cocktail party, someone introduced to him murmured, "And is this the young man who doesn't know how to spell 'fuck'?"

We'd all be better off if schools and instagram and Hollywood and all the rest of it would stop telling kids that they're in the "wrong" bodies and all the rest of that bullshit.
We should be telling them that they're perfectly fine as nature made them, that there's nothing wrong with them, that all people have different feeling about themselves and others over time and that feelings frequently change (especially as one is growing up), and that they don't need to ever feel ashamed of themselves or their bodies or their feelings.
But no, instead we have the lefty loons brainwashing a generation of kids into thinking that there is something horribly wrong with them and with their bodies, and that the only way they can make things "right" is by having their bodies surgically mutilated, and signing up for a lifetime of artificial hormones, sexual dsyfunction, and sterility.
It's beyond insane.
