When the kid slices off body parts and turns her life into one massive freakout, we’ll hear that this mom did everything right and who could have possibly predicted such a result?
In case people are confused, this is staged. The woman staged this shit and taught the poor kid what to say to gather clicks online.
Why are college professors, journalists, and all other intellectuals so left-wing? Why do they so unanimously embrace as destructive an ideology as (neo) liberalism? Every day, academics rabidly defend the very ideas that will destroy their lifestyle and professions. Why?
French philosopher Jean-Claude Michéa explains this seemingly strange phenomenon.
The growing impossibility, which [intellectuals] experience first-hand, of finding positions consistent with their former prestige is obviously tied to the evolution of a society that knows of no value worthy of greater respect than exchange value. Corporations are not inclined to offer people who live for ideas the same rewards-real or symbolic-that the latter once received from royal courts, salons, and academies. Consequently, intellectuals tend to have a negative eexperience of a system that by virtue of its very structure humiliates them. This is why, Orwell maintains, since
“about 1930 everyone who might be described as an ‘intellectual’ has lived in a state of chronic discontent with the existing order.” The intellectuals’ hatred of the existing order feeds primarily off the contradiction between their consciousness of their abilities and capitalist society’s practical indifference to them. In short, the intellectual’s attitude of rejection is underpinned by a will to power—one that is nothing more than the humiliated consciousness’ desire for recognition.Jean-Claude Michéa, Towards a Conservative Left
Sorry for a long quote but I’m about to start bugging everybody with Michéa who is my most recent discovery and a favorite new fad.
It’s always France (and sometimes Italy) that produces interesting ideas these days. Everybody else is absent from the field where thinking happens.
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.
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.
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.
This is a really great video from the recent national march in Great Britain:
Some inspiring content to round out the day.
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.
God is good.
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.
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.
