@JOBhakdi This has been my most depressing couple of days on X. Supposedly intelligent people think wealth just exists and is hoarded by the greedy. The liberal elites who hate Musk will happily confiscate successfully working capital and completely squander it. They will be our ruination
@JocastaMoney I don't pity them, even though I recognise many are victims of a terrible pernicious ideology. Shaming, ridicule and disgust are more compassionate responses because they will work more effectively to remove the destructive scourge of gender ideology from society once and for all
@AndrewHWestern It's amazing that Labour representatives who actively HATE England and its history think they can just casually leverage patriotism against Restore.
GFY.
No-one believes your evil lies any more.
@Louise681145@RupertLowe10 I said let ALL employers hire who they want. Let Jews hire Jews, blacks hire blacks, men hire women, Indians hire Turks, whatever. It's called having a level playing field. The opposite if what we have today where hiring a white man is frowned upon and actively legislated AGAINST
@FraserNelson What a whopping misrepresentation of data. No wonder institutional trust is so low. You've got a narrative, so then find ANY statistic that might back it up. I live on London. Crime (especially car crime, rape and mugging) is rising.
Your orphan stat will not change reality.
@Louise681145@RupertLowe10 So what? Unfair anti-white discrimination is rampant, this would just be a corrective. And why is some civil servant in charge of the morals and choices of a business? Let them hire who they want and succeed or fail accordingly.
I have been seeing a certain archetypal commenter in the spotlight recently; all women my age, progressive, and employed at mainstream institutions. I don't know them. Yet in every case, I can intuit their origin story.
It goes something like this:
> be an older millennial female, no strong passion, but strive hard in school
> reach High School
> steer clear of the kids who like talking about โfar outโ philosophical issues
> also steer clear of student government and debate club, which seems too contentious and vaguely threatening
> focus on getting perfect marks, complying with college reqs. Get into top uni based on those marks
> get introduced to politics in freshmen social justice class, instantly floored
> the appeal of college politics is just how cut-and-dried it is. Unlike other fields, it has a clear โgoodโ and โbadโ side, no ambiguity. The โgoodโ side always wins in classroom discussions, you feel like a hero for validating consensus with "The Conversation"
> politics becomes your religion, โthis is my passion!โ
> graduate with top marks and recs. Your degree is essentially in โCurrent Thing-ismโ. Have no broad understanding of history or philosophy.
> Your concept of human events is just people being oppressed for 4000 years until feminism and progress happened in the 20th c.
> despite the Global Financial Crisis, immediately get hired by a government/media org because they want someone who โunderstands the role of female politics in our new digital era!โ
> most of your colleagues share your perspective, the ones who don't are older guys on their way to retirement, not looking for the confrontation that disagreeing with you would certainly involve.
> great awokening happens, double down on Current-Thingism politics
> organe-man-bad and COVID happens, triple down on politics.
> you are 15 years deep in your career, you have never once genuinely engaged with a peer who didn't validate your worldview or who you didn't consider a "token" opposition to placade your political enemies
> vibe shift happens, establishment uncertain, time to have a "conversation" with the people you've considered deplorable
> have conversation, hear non-progressive opinion that is common in the modern world, historically ubiquitous
> react with schock, umbrage horror. "Can you even believe this is happening?"
> confident that non-progressive opinion is trivially easy to refute, somehow have no idea how to actually refute it
> unaware just how deeply you have been betrayed by your education, such that the average educated man on the street has more practical understanding of what politics is than you do with decades of "experience."
@reformparty_uk I've been weighing up voting Reform vs Restore.
This has made my mind up.
Reform really are a nasty bunch of unprincipled politicians who will say or do anything for power.
@DavidLammy I'm white, was diagnosed with prostate cancer and paid ยฃ25k to have private surgery because the NHS waiting list was so long.
The NHS is a joke, the government is a joke and people are getting VERY angry.
But yeah, let's prioritise black men, that'll help.
