The Same Strategy

The strategy that the Left is using to distract from its guilt in the Charlie Kirk assassination is the same as always. A Jewish ideologue (Blumenthal) inflames a bunch of impressionable women (Candace Owens and Megyn Kelly) with a highly emotional story. There was a confrontation! An intervention! People yelled! Text messages were exchanged! People got catty!

Women tend to overestimate the effect that words and aggressive behavior have on men. Somebody was unhappy! The sky is falling! Any disagreement is seen as apocalyptic. Words are violence.

As a result, the goal is achieved, the attention is distracted. The Left once again diverted everything into a convenient sidetrack that leaves them not only blameless but as the heroes of the story.

Attention Span

Max Blumenthal, who is a leftist, invented a story that Charlie Kirk was murdered by Israel. This is a pretty transparent ploy to distract attention from the actual murderer who is an American leftist. Exactly like Blumenthal, the author of the theory.

The ploy is working, and we’ve had two days of everybody discussing what Blumenthal said, what the perennially stupid Candace Owens responded, and what Bill Ackman explained.

The Left never has any accountability because the Right has the attention span of a fruit fly. This was the best opportunity in decades to address the destructive tendencies on the Left. It’s being pissed away because people can’t concentrate and stay on point without getting distracted by some arrant silliness.

Angry Favela Dwellers

Utah, of all places. It’s truly one global favela with overmedicated people with inflamed egos and in the grip of egotistical rage who are seething at the world because they can’t continue themselves, so they decide to discontinue others.

I don’t mean it’s a favela on economic terms, of course. None of these people are poor. It’s a  moral and intellectual favela that they inhabit. Their poverty is not material. What they lack is not things. It’s the immaterial sphere of life that has been devastated, leaving these young men as empty husks.

Inspirational

This is a really great video from the recent national march in Great Britain:

Some inspiring content to round out the day.

Everything Right

I was thinking today, Charlie Kirk’s parents really did everything right. At 31, he was in a wonderful place in terms of maturity and life goals. He clearly had a ton of psychic energy to achieve incredible things. Clean-living, extremely knowledgeable, and well-read. He radiated calm and positivity. All of his friends, even much older ones, say that he was a constant source of support for them.

His parents need to publish a parenting manual. I’m sincerely interested in how they achieved these results.

Good News

God is good.

Breast Is Best and Female

A breastfeeding group on FB banned references to women and mothers. We can all guess the country where it happened:

You can’t even call yourself a woman when you breastfeed. What a victory for feminism.

Please note the standard rhetorical trick where noticing objective reality is equated with murderous intent (“debating the validity of people’s existence”). Being called a woman doesn’t threaten anybody’s existence but this is a neat shortcut to make the use of the word “mom” an equivalent of genocide.

P.S. The group in question also banned the phrases “breast is best” and “fed is best” because they are also somehow exclusionary.

Selective Vision

Of course, liberals are using Bondi’s stupidity to point out gleefully that conservatives are also against freedom of speech. Even though every conservative in existence spent the last 12 hours denouncing Bondi and asking for her firing over these comments.

My X feed is very boring right now because it contains nothing but conservatives denouncing Bondi and liberals pretending that conservatives agree with her.

We don’t agree. We are disgusted and have denounced constantly, endlessly, and insistently.

Another Bondi Mess-up

It gets worse:

The market economy worked exactly as it should have in the Office Depot situation. The company fired the workers who were refusing business from paying customers. Take the win and move on. That’s the only normal reaction here. Making it government business is as anti-conservative as anything can possibly be.

There Is No Hate Speech

It’s very heartening to see principled unity on the Right regarding AG Pam Bondi’s statements that “there’s free speech and then there’s hate speech.”

There is no such distinction in our constitution and there shouldn’t be. The concept of “hate speech” does not exist legally and should not exist morally or intellectually.

Moreover, we should retire words hate and phobia (outside of clinical settings) for a decade or so because they’ve been overused and no longer mean anything.

It’s great that there’s such a concerted pushback on the Right to Bondi’s statements. Her words should be a fireable offence. This should be the end of her legal career.
