New poll reveals just 29% of Democrats are proud to be American vs 90% of Republicans

This should tell you everything you need to know.

They nailed the aesthetics of America 250 🇺🇸

[Joel Richardson @Joel7Richardson]

The Jews have been hated for being poor and for being wealthy; for being weak and for being powerful; for being too separate and for being too assimilated; for being religious and for being secular; for being stateless and now for having a state.

At some point, honest people must recognize that these contradictions expose something deeper than politics, economics, or sociology. The accusations change, but the hostility remains. The reasons are endlessly recycled because "the reasons" were never the real issue.

The Bible teaches that our struggle is not merely against flesh and blood, but against spiritual powers and principalities. Throughout history, there has been a relentless hatred directed toward the people through whom God chose to reveal Himself, give the Scriptures, bring forth the Messiah, and through whom He has promised yet to fulfill His covenant purposes.

Better to recognize this before Yeshua, the King and Messiah of Israel, judges the whole earth.

Go ahead and homeschool your kids, but if you think it’s going to save America, you’re radically misunderstanding the educational needs and inclinations of a vast swath of the public.

A few homeschoolers I know of:

- an adult student who can’t read. Her mother homeschooled her since first grade.

- a family in Texas who homeschools their kids ever since the pandemic. These are teenagers who sit at home on their phones all day. The mother works and does virtually nothing towards their education. No dad.

- a kid who dropped out of school at age 15 during the pandemic to homeschool and never went back to school at home or otherwise. No GED, no diploma, no more schooling.

These families in this video are high- functioning, involved parents who probably would do a lot of these activities even if their children were in school.

It’s not homeschooling that makes these kids successful. It’s their families.

If I wanted to design an op to fragment, demoralize, and distract the Right it would look a lot like Candace Owens and Russell Brand asking whether Israel had secret control of Brigitte Macron’s penis and the rifle that killed Charlie Kirk.

"It's the uneducated who show up to church each Sunday."

You know how many times someone has said that to me in the last couple of years?

It's empirically, demonstrably false in the US.

In some surveys, the line between the two is flat

In most, it's a POSTIVE relationship

Soon everyone will be watching @Netflix's new Lord of the Flies.

So let me repeat what the great Peter Gray says about that story:

IT. IS. FICTION.

We can't use it as a reason to give kids less freedom because "this is what happens."

No it isn't. (REAL story of 6 kids marooned on an island found them working cooperatively and rescued more than a YEAR LATER. Look up "Tongan Castaways.")

As for the Netflix series, the book was adapted for the screen by Jack Thorne, co-writer of “Adolescence,” which was ALSO FICTION.

These twin visceral, dystopian soap operas about how horrible kids are when left to their own devices -- left with not enough adult supervision -- have a tendency to seep under the skin because they are so dramatic and shocking.

I just wish there was some way to dramatize how depressing it is to grow up with CONSTANT adult supervision. Mental health problems are soaring among kids and we keep hearing about how little they are allowed to do on their own. 50% of parents won't let their kids, 8-12, go to another aisle at the store.

That stat is NOT FICTION. It could be what's crippling a generation with anxiety. But it is not DRAMATIC, so we just keep perseverating on how bad kids behave when they're not in travel soccer.

There's a lot to say about this, but one point worth making is how backwards French gets this. He's worried about being polite in a context where someone else is trying to take control of his tongue and force him to say things that aren't true. If someone is guilting or manipulating you into affirming a delusion, *they* are being rude and coercive. Refusing to play along is respecting not just the truth, but yourself as a person with agency. So I just reject this idea that refusing to be bullied or manipulated is unkind. Bullying and manipulation are unkind.

The dorks who found reasons to be cynical and critical about this mission look dumber by the day. This whole thing has been so cool. The crew has been sharing the Gospel the entire time. And now this moment. If you can't be inspired by this, you're dead inside. An empty vessel.

How to avoid catching brain rot:

1. Read your Bible more than you scroll.

2. Test every voice, and discern whether what they say lines up with scripture or not.

3. Remember, truth is consistent, character-filled, and rooted in Christ.

4. Stop following people who say “Christ is King”, but fail to exhibit any Fruit of the Spirit.

5. Stay grounded in the local church.

6. Renew your mind daily.

BREAKING: The Chicago Bulls are waiving Jaden Ivey after he spoke out against the NBA for promoting 'Pride Month' and unrighteousness, according to ESPN.

Ivey recently announced that he was alive in Christ.

"They proclaim Pride Month in the NBA. They show it to the world. They say, 'Come join us for Pride Month to celebrate unrighteousness.'"

"They proclaim it on the billboards, they proclaim it in the streets, unrighteousness."

He said nothing wrong.

@biggieschools @microschooling What does a school do with the kids that are there 5 full days a week, but the class only meets 1x? Do they just get seat work the rest of the time? What is the liability if a kid is outside and others are in a classroom and there is an emergency? Is that negligence? So many Qs!

A guy with a YouTube channel just accidentally redesigned the most complex machine in human history.

Not an aerospace engineer. Not a SpaceX executive.

A guy with a camera who asked one obvious question.

Tim Dodd was walking around Starbase when Musk proudly explained how the Super Heavy booster eliminated its entire cold gas thruster system. Instead of a separate, heavy, complex mechanism, it just vents hot gas directly from the propellant tanks.

Elegant. Zero added mass. Zero extra failure points.

Dodd asked one question.

“But this is only for the booster, right?”

Musk stopped.

Not to defend. Not to explain. Not to reframe the question so it didn’t threaten what he had just said.

He stopped because something clicked.

Musk: “Yes. Although arguably, now you mention it… we might be wise to do this for the ship, too. Now that… we’re going to fix that.”

Mid-sentence. In real time. On camera.

No pause to protect his pride. No deflection. No “good point, let me circle back on that.” Just the immediate, unfiltered acknowledgment that a better path existed and they were going to take it.

Seven months later, Musk confirmed it was one of the biggest improvements ever made to the vehicle.

Think about what just happened.

To change a fundamental flight system at a legacy aerospace company requires years of environmental reviews, safety committees, and budget approvals.

Musk deprecated an entire subsystem in 15 seconds because a podcaster asked the obvious question that nobody inside had dared to ask.

In a traditional corporation, that cold gas system gets built anyway.

Because admitting the architecture is flawed is politically expensive.

The VP doesn’t want to lose the headcount.

The engineers don’t want to scrap the work.

The manager doesn’t want to explain the pivot to their director.

And so the mistake gets a budget. Gets a timeline. Gets a team assigned to it.

The machine gets heavier. The flaw becomes load-bearing. And eventually the flaw becomes so embedded in the structure that fixing it would require tearing down everything built around it.

So nobody fixes it.

Now think about the last time someone pointed out a flaw in something you built. Something you were proud of. Something you had already explained to twelve people without anyone questioning it.

Did you stop the way Musk stopped?

Or did you feel that heat in your chest. That reflexive need to explain why they were missing the point. Why the context was more complicated than they understood. Why the question, though interesting, didn’t really apply here.

That heat is the most expensive thing most organizations will ever pay for.

A failed launch at least tells you the truth.

A defended mistake just compounds.

This is the organizational architecture required to win the AI arms race.

The ultimate moat isn’t compute. It isn’t capital.

It is the velocity of error correction.

The geopolitical AI race will not be won by whoever starts with the best blueprint.

It will be won by whoever can feel that heat in their chest and choose the truth anyway.

A journalist asked a question. The best answer won.

The rocket got lighter.

Most egos don’t.
