Q. Do you have any idea why so many women are choosing to defend a woman for murdering her 3 children?

A. There are at least four factors at work in that hideous mess.

First, the second wave of feminism -- despite various attempts to subdivide, we're still in that -- started out as a quest for equality, but during the 1980s abandoned that noble goal to become a crass and greedy pursuit of privilege instead. At this point it's an ideology of white women of the privileged classes, whose central credo is that they deserve whatever they want and must never be held accountable for anything they do. Do you recall how, in 2016, women of that class responded with incandescent hatred and rage to any suggestion that Hillary Clinton had any responsibility for the embarrassing failure of her campaign? This is the same thing. The women who are rallying around the person in question are frantically trying to insist that a woman of the privileged classes (the person we're talking about had a household income of $400k a year, in the top 1/2 of 1% of American families, as well as three doctors and a nanny to help with childcare) must not be blamed for anything ever. There you see their projection of their own sense of guilt and failure.

Second, there's the effect of the glorification of abortion and childlessness among women of this same class. Having killed unborn children or simply refused to have them, a great many women in that demographic feel conflicted about that, and glorifying a baby-murderer is one way to double down on that, in a very human manner.

Third, the class to which the great majority of these women belong -- the managerial class -- is being thrown out of power due to its own decadence and fecklessness. It's an elite replacement cycle of the usual kind, like the one that threw the investment class out of power in the 1930s, and in the usual way the people who are losing power can only see that in apocalyptic terms. I did a blog post about that a while back and I've noted before that I expect mass suicides in the managerial class as this bites down harder. That members of that class would glorify child-murder is par for the course; eventually they'll turn that same rage and despair on themselves.

Finally, there's a demonic component. Our society is embarrassingly ignorant of even the most basic elements of spiritual hygiene; we live in a fetid morass of decaying astral and etheric energies, and demons thrive in such environments. Since our rationalist ideologies make it hard for most people even to begin to take an appropriately wary stance toward intrusive thoughts and feelings, demons are having a field day messing with the corrupt and clueless. As Marlowe points out in his Doctor Faustus, nothing is easier than summoning demons; all you have to do is descend to their level, and there they are. A great many people are doing this, with predictable results.

@CapturingChrist @Philip_Goff Only "manifestly false" if you're a zealous adherent of 21st century liberalism. We can see a lot of issues with homosexuality that supports Catholic teavhing.

[Steve Sailer @Steve_Sailer]

Mayor Mamdani's complaint with New York grocery stores appears to be, in effect, that New York City has too many lackadaisical immigrant-run bodegas and not enough efficient American capitalist Walmarts and Costcos.

But his head would explode if he tried to explicate this.

[John Michael Greer @JMGreerWriter]

Few people realize is that Trump’s a moderate. He’s not trying to bring down the system — he’s trying to make the minimum changes in it that will keep it from tearing itself to bits, and the privileged people who hate him are too clueless to realize that he’s their best chance for survival.
