[The Ways of A Gentleman @Gentleman_Ways]

The years between 18 and 25 will shape your future more than any other time of life. Work hard. Seek out difficult jobs and challenge yourself. Read good books and learn useful skills. Save your money. Be careful with your time, and don’t waste it chasing shallow pleasures and distractions. Find the woman you want to build a life with and treat her with the utmost respect. That decision will shape the course of your life more than any other. The habits you build, the standards you adopt, and the choices you make during that time will become the foundation of your life. The days might seem long, but the years will be short. Don’t waste them.

Feminism isn’t totally bad. In fact, it has done two undeniably good things for society.

First, it unlocked 50% of the population's brainpower. Women are now free to do things they simply weren't allowed to do 50 years ago. Society can't run at full capacity with half its intellect on the sidelines. Giving women similar opportunities to work, build and lead was a massive upgrade for human progress.

Second, it completely broke the illusion men had about women. For generations, men put women on a pedestal. They viewed them as flawless, fragile, and purely innocent. By leveling the playing field, feminism exposed their reality. Now, men realize women too can be incredibly evil. Men now clearly see the weapons of manipulation women possess and can use. The romanticized veil has been lifted, at least for most males (simps will catch up hopefully).

Ultimately, feminism has made the world a much more aware place. We have dropped the fairy tales and the imposed suppression of expression. We now have a better realistic view of the supposedly softer gender.

This is why they need election fraud… to keep the people in power that will continue to allow the misuse of your tax dollars

Extreme poverty worldwide has never been as low as it is today, and it's never fallen as fast as in recent decades.

We need more facts and less ideology...

🚨 America needs MORE skilled workers

Mike Rowe: "The Pentagon needs 400,000 welders and electricians just for submarine contracts over the next seven or eight years. It's mind-boggling—and they're all competing for your kid."

“Imagine in 1750, you're like, well, 98% of us work in farming, and then you come back from the future and you're like, you guys, 2% of people in the 1990s work in farming. It'd be like, so everyone's starving to death? Like, no, no, we're super fat, actually.”

Are you sitting down?

All 56 signers of the Declaration of Independence spent a combined total of 125 years in the Federal Government they created.

Mitch McConnell, Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer alone have spent 125 years in the Federal Government.

Unacceptable.

Term limits!

Progressive Policies Have Left Illinois the Least Equitable State in the Country: https://t.co/jBGWPzOTTD

[Slats Grobnik @MissinRoyko]

The success of Florida compared to the failures of Illinois is dramatic yet you see Pritzker, a complete failure as a Governor, pop up far too often on Sunday news shows spouting his irrelevant thoughts

Meanwhile the most successful Governor in America is never seen on any news show other than FOX

See how it works when the media is an extension of the Democrat Party

In 2022, former LA Mayor Eric Garcetti (just before Bass) increased the “homeless budget” from $10M to over $1 Billion. Which NGO benefitting from that wants their river of money to stop? @SteveHiltonx @spencerpratt

119 years ago, Teddy Roosevelt banned Islam from the USA. And we could still do the same thing today.

[🎹 Ames™ 🎹 @Real_Ames]

Oregon Gov. Tina Kotek ( I thought the photo of her below was a dude) has signed legislation permanently eliminating the state's requirement that high school students demonstrate proficiency in reading, writing, and math to earn a diploma.

Supporters say the change will help remove barriers that have disproportionately affected students of color and other underserved groups. Critics argue it lowers academic standards and could leave graduates less prepared for college, careers, and everyday life.

According to former UK PM Liz Truss, a global "blob" of unelected elites drives the policies of Western governments from behind the scenes—from open borders to Net Zero.

She traces this framework back to organisations such as the World Economic Forum and the Club of Rome.
