Not nearly as smart as they think they are

GP Q #wingnut #crackpot #conspiracy #dunning-kruger twitter.com

The shift is no longer theoretical. It is visible in real time.

Years ago the drops framed a collective awakening. What once lived in theory now appears in ordinary conversations, independent streams, and living rooms that have stopped deferring to legacy outlets.
<...>
The original framework still functions as a map

The drops repeatedly stated that later events would confirm earlier statements, that information itself had become a domain of conflict, and that ordinary observers would become the primary distributors. Institutional media have been openly framed as adversarial. Systemic corruption is treated as observable rather than exceptional. Protection of children is elevated above other priorities. Individual judgment is treated as non-negotiable. October 17 functions less as a calendar date and more as a recurring marker that the larger sequence continues. “Where we go one, we go all” describes a practical multiplier: one person who stops deferring multiplies the effect.
<...>
Observable indicators at present

Simultaneous public skepticism toward vaccines, media, elections, and financial institutions has become common. Independent long-form outlets regularly exceed the combined audiences of the largest legacy cable networks. Visible identifiers associated with the broader movement appear without the earlier social cost. Families that previously avoided certain subjects now discuss them. The overall tone has shifted from suppression of questions toward open contestation.
<...>
Current position

The sequence described in the original drops is treated by participants as an ongoing process rather than a single date. The framework, the legal and continuity analysis, the high-reach independent voices, and the distributed network of smaller producers are viewed as interlocking elements. Participants describe their role as maintaining pressure and continuity while larger mechanisms continue.
Nothing in the observed trajectory indicates reversal.

Where one proceeds, others follow.

Rev. John Lovell and Josh McPherson #psycho #fundie #wingnut #dunning-kruger #transphobia #forced-birth #sexist globalextremism.org

Warrior Poet Society, the gun-training company run by former Army Ranger John Lovell, scheduled a two-day course there on clearing a building alone[…]with an AR-15[…]
His congregation[…]began in 2023 as an offshoot of Grace City Church in Wenatchee, Washington, whose pastor, Josh McPherson, wrote an ebook titled Christian Nationalism[…]
The White House invited McPherson and 99 other pastors to mark the first 100 days of Trump’s second term. Bonny has described him as a firm believer “that government must ‘submit’ to religion”[…]
McPherson went on the podcast of Frank Turek to promote Freedom Con[…]McPherson praised the Black Robe Regiment, preachers of the Revolutionary era who he said “were willing to fight for and defend truth in real time with real bullets, in real battle.” Turek interjected, “We’re not advocating violence, just to be clear.” The pastor warned that if Americans neglect peaceful means, “there will come a time where we’re forced to either compromise or stand and fight”[…]
McPherson also posted that if Christians and churches “simply showed up and voted their conscience… we’d flip Washington State”[…]
McPherson’s men’s ministry, Stronger Man Nation, sells the conference merchandise, which includes a “Dragon Killer” shirt[…]The ministry also runs Project ManCard, a four-day rite of passage for boys 14 to 17. “Boys were made to kill dragons”[…]At the end of ManCard the boys recite a creed that closes with “I’ll kill the dragon. I’ll win the girl”[…]
[Lovell] toured the U.S. Capitol and posted four takeaways. Number one[…]that the country’s Christian founding is “simply undeniable.” Number three came with a chili pepper emoji and was aimed at other pastors. “Pastors are derelict in their duties as shepherds if they do not speak out on the policies that liberate or enslave their fellow man”[…]
The day before the 2024 election, Lovell wrote, “Vote Trump, folks,” and said a Trump win would mean “far less aborted babies, & chemically castrated kids”

got an assignment for all y'all

start using the phrase "feminist power fantasy", and when asked simply state "it's the fantasy that feminists have where they're smart, liked by everyone, and are able to put down all of their detractors with witty words ... things which aren't true and they wish were the case."

doing so will trigger the shit out of feminists and, therefore, cause it to meme hard.

John C. Wright #dunning-kruger #fundie scifiwright.com

Until now, I was not in favor of Trump running for a third term. I thought the constitutional order and the rule of law should be respected.

Then I saw dozens of Dem leaders both social and political claiming that Trump’s comment, which was that temporary high gas prices were a small price to pay to prevent American cities from being taken out with an Iranian nuke, was secretly a threat by Trump asking Iran to nuke a Dem city. Secretly, despite being said in public at a televised speech attended by thousands.

Of course, I saw that speech, and heard the sentence in question. The sentence was in that abbreviated fashion he unfortunately uses, for he expects his audience to understand the topic and the context. This is the way everyone in all walks of life talk in all ordinary times.


The only people who speak otherwise are these two:

1. Engineers and doctors and theologians use a technical jargon to minimize ambiguity.

2. Lawyers and politicians expect opposition to misquote or misinterpret their words aggressively, and so speak with careful qualification or hidden nuances to allow for later repudiation.

Of course the unedited clip is readily available. Like the Bloodbath hoax and the Very Fine People hoax, one has to be vehemently and devoted uninterested in the real meaning of what was actually said not to listen to the sentence fourteen seconds before and after the clip, and hear the obvious meaning.

Pete Hegseth #ableist #crackpot #dunning-kruger #elitist #transphobia #wingnut theguardian.com

The US defense secretary, Pete Hegseth, has confirmed plans to cut 20% of generals and admirals.

“The only focus, as you know, in your formations should be training, readiness, accountability, discipline and lethality,” Hegseth said. “And when you pursue those things, you don’t have to walk on eggshells … the complainers, the ideologues and the poor performers are no longer in the driver’s seat.”

He added: “But it’s worth saying again, so the fake news understands it. We are no longer the woke department or the weak department. Simple translation of that: no fatties, no trannies, no beardos, no weirdos, no wimps, no radicals. Just warriors.”

Generals “who clung to the woke department, or seemed to think civilian control of the military is simply a suggestion, well, they no longer work here”, Hegseth said.

During his speech in Quantico, Virginia, the defense secretary announced several new initiatives, including a a new Pentagon project which will see Elon Musk, Palmer Luckey – a top Trump donor and ally – and Newt Gingrich, the former US House speaker, work with the department to study the “future of warfare”.

Tucker Carlson #wingnut #pratt #racist #dunning-kruger telegraph.co.uk

Sir Jacob Rees-Mogg has accused Tucker Carlson[…]of “verging on defending” Adolf Hitler[…]
In the show, titled “Tucker Confronts Britain’s Most Pro-War Advocate”, the firebrand broadcaster also appeared to suggest that Britain’s involvement in the war was unnecessary because Hitler had repeatedly claimed that he did not want to fight the UK

Sir Jacob said: “You seem to be putting more trust in Hitler than I would. He said all sorts of things”

Following a brief history lesson about Neville Chamberlain’s promise of “peace for our time” after his meeting with Hitler shortly before Nazi forces invaded Poland, Sir Jacob offered the American a little advice

“I’m very surprised you’re verging on defending Hitler. I think this is not really what you want to be doing”[…]
Carlson replied: “Yeah, I guess I’m just a secret Nazi. I’m actually not a secret Nazi… and hardly a public Nazi”

Sir Jacob, 57, responded, “I’m reassured”, before explaining that, if the UK had not gone to war, “Germany would have invaded us”[…]
Carlson, 57, also suggested that the Second World War was still being “presented” by Britain as a “good thing” despite it having “destroyed” the empire

“It was the classic good versus evil. We did the right thing,” Sir Jacob said, as he tried to explain the motivation behind going to war with a dictator who had invaded his neighbouring countries and exterminated millions of Jews

But Carlson – apparently eager to understand “cause and effect” – wanted to know whether the UK had “benefited” from taking on Hitler

Sir Jacob responded: “To have defeated Hitler? Yes”

Carlson asked: “The UK is a better country now? It is a healthier country?”

Sir Jacob: “In other words, we would all be speaking German”

The US broadcaster then said “Who cares?”, adding that “a lot of people in Britain” do not speak English, so if Germany had won, “at least a European language [would have been] spoken in your country”

Donald Trump #dunning-kruger #wingnut apnews.com

On Tuesday, Trump told the U.N. General Assembly that he would “officially” change the name of AI, saying the existing name makes the technology seem “fake” and that U.S. government documents would from that point forward use “super intelligence.”

“The use of the word artificial makes intelligence fake, it makes it sound fake and it is not fake. It’s actually amazing,” Trump said.

The president said at the U.N. that “from the point forward” U.S. government documents “will be changed to use the much more accurate term super as opposed to artificial. So it’s super intelligence.”

I didn't use to care. Lando Calrissian was cool because he was suave and because he decided to be a hero at the expense even of his own safety, not because he was black. Magua from The Last of the Mohicans had his family slaughtered by white men...but he was also a monster who was brutal, cruel, and straight up villainous. In the series Wild C.A.T.S one of the heroes is a short white business man who often uses his wealth for the cause of humanity, and even risks his safety to help his friends. That's unthinkable nowadays for no reason at all.
Bill Sikes is a poor man...but he's also a drunkard, a murderer, and a fiend. Again, this would be impossible because his economic status instantly is supposed to make his situation ambiguous.

There's an upcoming Treasure Island movie with David Oyelowo as Long John Silver.

I have a feeling that Long John will NOT be like the book and be very sympathetic and all his actions will be justified. Why? Because it's 2026 and he's played by a black man. No one on earth has the courage or integrity to either READ the book and adapt it or portray and non-white actor as truly evil. At most he'll be a tragic villain, pressured to a life of villainy by the evil forces of society.
And, if they feel really spicy, he'll be a former slave because why the hell not.

The truth is that the Jane Doe supporters wish she was assaulted more than wishing she was not, which proves their compassion is not out of care for her but just performative.

There has been so much back and forth regarding the Cornell 7 allegations. The side which is supportive of Jane Doe loves to preach about believing her, and the other side is quite skeptical and/or calling it a false accusation. The odd thing is people care more about being right on the internet than about her well being, and are therefore rooting for her to have been raped, and would be disappointed if she wasn’t. This proves these people don’t care about her but are just being performative so they can shout “I am Jane Doe” for attention and hating on men, similar to picking the bear.

My critiques, or rather, my conclusive and comprehensive mathematical disproofs, of evolution are not wrong, period, as anyone who is sufficiently competent to comprehend both the math and its correct context will soon grasp. Whether they tell her the truth or not remains to be seen. We’ve already seen that the first population geneticist who reached out to her provided her with information that was both a) incorrect and b) irrelevant.

It’s probably best that Ericka runs away now, considering what happened to the last woman who tried to debate me. For those of you who weren’t around then, she literally abandoned the debate after three rounds and ran off to Las Vegas to start a new career as a prostitute at a legal brothel. I’m neither kidding nor exaggerating for effect. You can look it up. You can probably still buy her services, for that matter.

It doesn’t matter in the least. The historical events of the last six million years already took place. They don’t depend upon me. Natural selection never produced homo sapiens sapiens. It never produced any species. And neither did genetic drift, neutral substitution, ILS, sweeps, ancestral polymorphism, or any other undirected mechanism for transferring genetic data that these desperate post-Darwinist polythesists can dream up.

It is perhaps worth noting that the very nice Christian anti-evolution crowd aren’t necessarily any more enthusiastic about my reputation than the I FUCKING LOVE SCIENCE crowd, although it’s understandable that the evolutionists might be just a little more sensitive about anything that smacks of the historical political application of their pseudo-scientific beliefs, and yet the mathematicians in their midst take what I’ve developed very seriously because it is really that serious.

Here’s the thing: I don’t even care about evolution anymore. It’s dead, done, and dusted, and little Ericka and her enthusiasts can play with fairy tales and dinosaurs like toddlers all they like. It isn’t going to change anything, and there is no chance those midwitted retards were ever going to help solve the genomic catastrophe that they still haven’t noticed because they’re too busy doing makework and trying to find new ways to write “is consistent with the theory of evolution by natural selection”.

About the Author

Best selling books by this author: ELOHIM RULERS and GREATEST CONSPIRACY OF ALL TIME. Spiritual series entitled WORSHIP OF THE CREATOR SOURCE. Ever since I can remember I have had a fascination with the REAL truth. I have investigated various spiritual and religious organisations and buried my head in museums, libraries and other public buildings.

For the past 40 years and more on my travels throughout the world I have collected information that leads me to a better understanding of world history and the reasons why we speak so many languages. Everybody is so similar in so many ways yet we possess such diverse cultures. For me this was very puzzling. Even so the One Creator Source is omnipresent and immortal.

Now I believe I have a better understanding of why humans were chosen to take care of our beautiful planet.

My books share my knowledge and thus exposure of the FALSIFICATION of True History that occurred over centuries and still occurs to this day. Disinformation and propaganda are powerful weapons. After almost fifty years of detailed research I feel I am able to offer a clear picture of the Real Truth: to expose the Fake History the Evil Elite Psychopaths have indoctrinated generation upon generation of humans with. Finally I have realized the Absolute Truth.

John McAuliffe, an international member of the British party, columnist at Digital Journal and the Cambridge Globalist, was suspended this week after allegedly posting on Facebook a message in which he described the genocide as “the most useful political tool of the Zionist government in Israel to establish a financial racket in the West, whereby Israel receives an unlimited sum for the duration of its existence,” The Jewish News reported Monday.

The suspension, made known to the Jewish News by a Labour spokesperson, is the latest in a string of punitive measures against members who have made anti-Semitic hate speech.

There is a reason that economists are inordinately inclined to be dubious about evolution. And that reason is this: we comprehend large numbers. For all the flaws of our field, and believe me, they are many, there isn’t a single economist who is impressed by a biologist waving his hand and summoning “millions and billions of years” or dramatically declaring that 600,000 generations is but “an eyeblink” in the context of geological time.

We work in trillions, bitch.

So waving your hand and imagining that the mere evocation of ONE MILLION YEARS allows sufficient time for anything and everything to happen not only doesn’t impress us, it confirms our original impression that you are actually retarded. I mean, when your core argument is, quite literally, an Austin Powers joke about inflation in a 1997 movie, you should probably consider the very high degree of probability that your entire hypothesis is not only ill-founded, but obviously wrong.

Evolution by natural selection never happened because it is mathematically impossible. And if you don’t accept that, it is only because you don’t understand the relevant math.

What is NOT universal is thinly veiled very contemporary political shots, endless reiterations of 'the ____ experience' which never shifts in tone or tale. What's a 'refugee' experience? ALWAYS a hopeless put-upon saint looking for a decent existence being stalked by villainous racist ICE parodies. Every...single...time. Is this the only possible refugee experience in reality? Not at all.
But it's the only story that Hollywood can tell.

It's why the term 'virtue signaling' came into being. In the new Toy Story we have to continually belittle and sideline characters because of what they represent in the 'real world'. Woody is a man, so he's a useless object of mockery. Buzz is a strong man so he has to be feminized. We need all the female characters to be the strongest, the smartest, the center of the story.
Because of cowardice.
Because the studio is terrified that people in the real world will complain about a movie they may not even bother to see. Because we need to show we aren't like THOSE people, so we need to drop those not too subtle references to pledge our loyalty, to show we're GOOD people.

It's a ritual, and it's emphatically hypocritical.

Because when it comes to certain people, the gloves come off again. Our heroes are broken, hapless, they've done bad things and even if they can't even atone they deserve a second chance because they're living, feeling beings with their own identities!

Oh, there's a fascist soldier who was probably brainwashed? Torture him to death and laugh.

Even Indiana Jones used to knock out Nazis. Nowadays if the character says 'THOSE people' or something to that effect he will karmically die a horrible death to appease the politically correct gods.

The Odyssey changed the story of a cunning adventurer into a drugged out veteran with PTSD regretting his colonialism....because modern day. We can't have heroes in a past sense because a modern audience couldn't comprehend them. So we change the heroes of the past, we drain the world of mythology of their spark and wonder. We are left with vague bumbling deeply troubled narcissists obsessing about political issues, regardless of what time period of even what fictional setting they are in.

I'd be willing to bet that your "mountains of evidence from (paleontology, comparative anatomy, geology, and molecular biology)" is just so much question-begging. If your field assumes evolution and builds on top of it, evolution is not thereby proven. It remains an assumption.

The fact of micro-evolution (which was well known via breeding of domestic animals before anyone had heard of Darwin) does not prove macro-evolution. Your hand-waving is not evidence of anything.

Your sloppy, illogical reasoning is clear to everyone outside your cult. It goes back to Darwin, in fact, probably the most muddle-headed (alleged) scientist ever to have lived. Until you can master elementary logical reasoning, you should give up any ambition scientific theorizing.

[From “Japheth (the First Born) and Shem”]

The nut of the matter is in Matthew 21, the Parable of the Two sons. Japheth is the Elder son, who is father to the Europeans. Shem was the second son, contrary to what the Jews would have us believe[…]
This is very clear — it is the Europeans who became faithful in the Vineyard and took the Gospel to the ends of the Earth

This lesson is told again in another way in the succeeding parable — the Parable of the Landowner (Matthew 21:33-46)[…]
Those who call themselves “Jews” would have us believe that Moses and the Patriarch were Jews — nothing could be further from the truth. They never even would have heard that term. Hebrews, yes[…]
I dismiss “Jew” as an overused and confusing term. I rely on Jesus Christ to clear it up: “those that call themselves Jews” are Satan’s synagogue. Do a search son converting to Judaism. Anyone can convert, the Sons of Ham, etc

So what happened to “Israel,” that is the biological offspring of Jacob? The Ten Northern tribes (who were never ever called Jews) when into exile into Assyria, and from there they migrated into Europe — they went to live “among the nations”[…]
But I argue that the sons of Israel went to Europe for this simple reason— Europe converts to Jesus Christ. Europe becomes Christendom, which means the Kingdom of Christ[…]
Also, note that the Gospels and Epistles were written only to the Europeans — it is exclusively in the premier European language — Greek. Corey Mahler has argued ( convincingly) that Jesus Christ, when quoting Scriptures, relied upon the Greek/Septuagint version of the OT prophets. There is no Epistle written to a non-European place — zero[…]
It is also true that the House of God — the original Temple — could not have been built without the Europeans. Hiram was the son of a European man. (1 Kings 7:14) Without that European man, the temple could not have been built

I don't even have an opinion on aliens; I tend to suspect that whatever the government ends up presenting to us is really going to be the demon-gods they've worshipped for millennia. We're learning that the world is a much weirder place than we'd been taught, or even imagined.

But I understand the relevant math on a level that very few, if any, biologists do. And so I know, beyond any shadow of even a flickering doubt, that the entire Neo-Darwinian edifice of the last 180 years is completely and totally false. And that's why every new discovery on every scientific front is going to make that more and more obvious, and less and less deniable.

[From “Putin Wins Again”]

Vladimir Putin is far more popular with Russians than Trump is with US citizens or any of the unelected EU sock-puppets are with the various countries they supposedly “lead”:

Judging by the preliminary results, Russia’s new State Duma will look remarkably similar to the old one, after this weekend’s elections. Yet amid dramatically different domestic and international circumstances, that continuity is perhaps the most notable result of all. The 2026 result has produced some changes, but the new is considerably less significant than the familiar

Turnout, at around 57%, was the highest in a State Duma election for a decade, although hardly unprecedented as participation exceeded 60% four times in earlier elections

United Russia was the clearest beneficiary, taking almost 58% of the party-list vote, up sharply from 49.8% in 2021. Even so, it remained below the party’s record 64.3% in 2007, during Vladimir Putin’s second presidential term

The Communists again established themselves as Russia’s principal opposition party, comfortably finishing second with almost 14%, but that represented a significant retreat from their roughly 19% in 2021, and was far removed from the turbulent 1990s, when the party could attract almost a quarter of the electorate

Remember, everything – everything – about Clown World is fake, gay, and retarded. Which is why their fantasies about the people rising up against Vladimir Putin are little more than the projection of their own quite realistic fears about the people of the slave states of Europe rising up against the apparatchiks in Paris, Berlin, and London

Evolutionary biology actually makes astrology look scientific by comparison. I mean, in the case of astrology there are at least actual planets and stars and constellations one can observe even if they don’t influence anyone’s destiny or behavior. Evolution by natural selection and genetic drift is rather like astrology if there weren’t any planets, any stars, or anything at all in the sky.

The amusing thing is the way that evolutionists keep trying to point to birds and butterflies and bones as somehow proving anything at all. It’s exactly like the man, who upon being challenged on his claim of having walked from Los Angeles to New York City in five minutes, argues that if you will only turn on the television, you will see that there are, in fact, people living in not only Los Angeles, but also San Francisco and Chicago!

Well, yes, that’s all very true, but it’s also beside the point.

You can’t reason with these retards, which is why I have no interest in engaging with them. They simply don’t have the mental capacity to understand the concept of a “rate” or how it absolutely and always applies to anything that changes over time.

Donald Trump #quack #pratt #dunning-kruger bbc.com

US President Donald Trump has signed an order that calls for fewer childhood vaccines and also recommends splitting the mumps, measles and rubella (MMR) shots

"Decades ago, children received only a small fraction of the vaccines required today," Trump said. "In those times, people were much healthier and of course the high rates of autism now observed did not exist"

The president has long cast doubt on the safety of MMR vaccines, but multiple studies have found no connection between the shots and autism

Medical experts have criticised the new order and said it could reduce vaccination rates and expose children to harmful diseases

The order also recommends that the number of childhood vaccines drop to 11 from the existing 18 recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP)

Trump's order serves as guidance, not a mandate, since shots required for school attendance are set at the state level, rather than by the federal government

The immunisations recommended for all children under the order are for measles, mumps, rubella, diphtheria, tetanus, pertussis, polio, Haemophilus influenzae type B, pneumococcal disease, human papillomavirus, and varicella or chicken pox

"We're reducing them," Trump said. "It's not only that you're doing fewer vaccines, or jabs, as they say, but you're doing them in a series of visits to the doctor"

The president suggested the MMR vaccine could be "quite lethal" if given at once. He compared it to pouring a bottle of soda into a child's body. According to the FDA, a single dose of MMR is 0.5ml

When a reporter asked for evidence of the "lethal" claim, Trump said: "What I've heard is that there are some people that say it is that way"

Book overview

Energy can be extracted from the ocean in a variety of obvious and creative ways. Elevation is an overlooked power resource, key to tapping Nature's limitless gravitational field by executing very inexpensive state changes. Virtual prototypes were developed using existing products – direct conversations with manufacturers and web resources provided data on air compression, air liquefiers, turbines and power generation. It is very simple: Gravity and Nature are constant, perpetual energy sources, capable of generating energy in perpetuity.
<...>
NATURE's solution employs State Changes to exploit Gravity as a bidirectional force – transforming weight to buoyancy and back. Waterfalls are examples of perpetual cycles. Water is evaporated down stream. The vapor rises and is transported. It condenses out as dew, rain or snow to rejoin the inlet stream and return to the falls, but its drop will never be the same twice. The primary force defining this cycle is Gravity. It pulls all things downward, but the heavy things squeeze out the light things, sending them upwards. Thus, indirectly Gravity is also a push.<...> Also revealed is Nature has Obsessive Compulsive Behavioral Disorder (OCBD). A state change creates an imbalance that must be corrected. That creates a flow of energy.

GREGOREK's solution makes use of Ocean Elevation. It is an ignored resource that offers a vast expanse to exploit Gravity’s bidirectional behavior. A small amount of energy is used to compress air, which gets released to recover a turbine assembly dropped into the ocean. Energy is extracted during the Drop and Rise portions of the cycle. <...> The trick is reheating the trapped liquid quickly by first exposing it to Nature and then the next cycle’s blown-off heat. Nature is a perfect, infinite heat sink. These elements combine to create Perpetual Cycles. All other energy consumers are fleas and ticks compared to these elephants.

Uttar Pradesh cabinet minister Om Prakash Rajbhar on Monday backed his cabinet colleague Sanjay Nishad’s contention that fish prepared without garlic and onion could be considered vegetarian, while asking Congress to clarify whether the fish reportedly served at its Ayodhya event on Sunday was cooked with garlic and onion or without them

“Woh (Sanjay Nishad) keh rahe hain to sahi keh rahe honge. Machhli non-veg nahi hogi. Congress se poochhna chahiye ki pyaz-lahsun daal kar banaya tha ya bina milaye,” Rajbhar told reporters in Lucknow when asked to react to the controversy

However, when asked how fish could be called vegetarian, Rajbhar appeared to defer to Nishad. “Sanjay Nishad machhli ke mahir hain, unhe zyada jaankari hai, hum thode kam hain,” he said

Nishad, who heads the Nishad Party, had recently triggered a debate by claiming that fish prepared without garlic and onion was vegetarian

Rajbhar’s remarks came amid a political controversy over fish being cooked at a Congress meeting in Tarun area of Ayodhya on Sunday

The meeting was organised by Ram Nihal Nishad, who recently switched from BJP to Congress, to welcome UP Congress president Ajay Rai. A video showing fish being cooked at the venue surfaced after the event and drew sharp reactions from BJP leaders

Rai has defended the event, saying it was organised by members of the Nishad community, for whom fish is an important part of their food culture. He has also questioned where the evidence was that his presence at the event amounted to a violation of Sanatan traditions.The BJP has accused Congress of hurting religious sentiments by organising the event during Sawan

"David Hogg still has some explaining to do.

Years after Parkland, a resurfaced video from right after the shooting shows the now-famous activist looking suspiciously like he's being fed lines during an interview. The pauses, the glances, the awkward restarts—it's the kind of clip that makes you wonder why a grieving teen suddenly needed what looks like on-the-spot direction. And to this day, Hogg has never directly addressed it.

Because of course he hasn't.

When you're one of the left's anointed gun-grabbers, inconvenient footage just gets memory-holed while the media moves on to the next script.

If Hogg were a pro-Second Amendment type the mainstream media would have been all over this video shortly after the tragic event.

Playing Devil's advocate, he could have just been in shock or afraid or nervous ... but man, we don't know."

Fetterman is a sane voice in the Democratic party. He believes the DSA should run independently from the Dem party. Do you actually support the DSA platform? If so, you agree with drafting a new constitution, a complete overhaul of the three branches of government, censorship, loss of rights and freedoms, goverment control of the economy which will raise taxes, and more.

Ayrton Morice Kerneven: Strangely, this religion doesn't concern itself with forgiveness. It seems far more obsessed with the separation between the "pure" and the "impure"...

Jean-François Braunstein: As Joshua Mitchell, a leading Tocqueville scholar, has pointed out, this is indeed a "religion without God and without forgiveness ." "White privilege" is an equivalent of original sin, but here there is no possible redemption through divine grace. "Toxic masculinity," which plays a less central role than white privilege, can certainly be combated, but without much hope, by a thorough "deconstruction" of masculinity, advocated notably in France by Sandrine Rousseau.
