There is an ideology that has steadily been growing in this country which hates everything that is good, righteous and beautiful and celebrates everything that is warped, twisted and depraved. It is an ideology at war with family and nature. It is envious, malicious, and soulless. It is an ideology that looks upon the perfect family with bitter rage while embracing the serial criminal with tender warmth. Its adherents organize constantly to tear down and destroy every mark of grace and beauty while lifting up everything monstrous and foul. It is an ideology that leads, always, inevitably and willfully, to violence — violence against those uphold order, who uphold faith, who uphold family, who uphold all that is noble and virtuous in this world. It is an ideology whose one unifying thread is the insatiable thirst for destruction.

We see the workings of this ideology in every posting online cheering the evil assassination that cruelly robbed this nation of one of its greatest men. Postings from those in positions of institutional authority — educators, healthcare workers, therapists, government employees — reveling in the vile and the sinister with the most chilling glee.

The fate of millions depends upon the defeat of this wicked ideology. The fate of our children, our society, our civilization hinges on it.

Now we devote ourselves, with love and unyielding determination, to finishing the indispensable work to which Charlie bravely devoted his life and gave his last measure of devotion.

The black migration of the first half of the 20th century destroyed the majority of America's big cities. That's uncomfortable to say, but it's true. Prevented by their own government from protecting their neighborhoods, people instead fled to the suburbs and tried to forget the nightmare. Cities descended into chaos throughout the '70s and '80s until, by 1991, Chicago saw 929 murders (almost 2x the 2024 number), and over 42,000 cases of aggravated assault. NYC saw 2,245 murders that year (vs. 377 in 2024). Most of the violence was confined to certain areas of the cities, and while people were resentful over what had been allowed to happen, they were able to ignore it as long as they had the ability to avoid the danger zones (which government tried to make more difficult through forced integration and mandatory public school bussing programs).

Then, in 1992, America watched LA burn because a 6'3" 240 lb. career criminal on PCP caught a beatdown after leading the cops on a 115 mph chase through a known cop suburb. Soon after, OJ Simpson was put on trial, and the same Americans watched crowds of African Americans cheer and chant "We won!" after Simpson was acquitted in one of the most iron-clad high-profile murder cases ever, mostly because one of the investigating officers might've said something racist in the past. After that, the mood changed. Harsh laws were passed, and they were enforced. The prison population increased by 50%, and a huge number of black males were put into the system in one way or another (jail, parole, probation, etc). Within a few years, violent crime dropped by 50, 60, 80% in many metro areas, and it stayed down until the cycle of media- and Democrat-incited race riots began during the Obama administration. Total numbers are still far below where they were in the early '90s, but permissive local governments and a media environment that encourages violent rage against the white population has created a culture of impunity that has made it much more difficult to ignore or avoid, as predators and violent psychotics wander outside their natural habitat looking for victims. The statistics don't speak to the level of vulnerability and chaos experienced by many people in the cities.

This feels like another LA riot/OJ trial moment, when years of apathy and resignation was replaced with a militant determination to restore order. Let's hope it is.

The Burger and Milkshake are triumphs of human nutrition. They represent the civilizational quest to transcend beyond the barley-gruel povertyslop of tawny slaves huddled in mesopotamian favelas.

The Burger and Milkshake supply the perfect macro balance of carb, fat, protein, and fiber; furthermore they are a testament to the real, raw elements of our national wealth: our pastures, our supply lines, and our labor pool.

The cow is in fact the greatest and most lindy form of wealth; the cow is the alchemical power to turn the sunlight sequestered in grass into refined biological energy, the basis for all structure and power.

As goes the quality of our burgers, so goes the concrete quality of life of our entire nation. Whoever decries the Burger as "unhealthy" blasphemes; but whosoever soils the Burger, who mistreats the cattle, who makes disgusting soybean facsimiles, he sins seven-fold and is consigned to the pit.

@ComicDaveSmith I don't understand how he can suggest your analogy isn't applicable to LOAC, when the man in your example clearly violates the Doctrine of Double Effect, which is one of the first moral frameworks taught in military ethics. He has to know that.

@Aristos_Revenge In my experience, most of the "wokeness" came from the field grade officers that were assigned there and taught useless officership classes. Most of my favorite professors were civilians in the philosophy dept and were far from woke or even left wing for that matter.

This is the liberal imagination, which is a dramatic imagination that conceptualises history as a Netflix series/ graphic novel in which historical actors perform narratively satisfying moments of 'poetic justice'- it is nothing to do with real life or the best interests of British citizens

[Yeerk.P 🦆 @PYeerk]

The activistic mentality always aims to 'produce' metatextually its own controversy, its own 'reactionary' reaction, because it relies on the existence hypothetical 'third audience' who 'don't get it' as a crucial marketing element by which to launder its technical mediocrity

We need a new version of this which accounts for the fact that a significant proportion of the right is also motivated by petty resentment, physical inadequacy and sexual jealousy. I'd say that many people "on the right" are nothing more than inverted leftists.

JULIAN ASSANGE IS FREE

Julian Assange is free. He left Belmarsh maximum security prison on the morning of 24 June, after having spent 1901 days there. He was granted bail by the High Court in London and was released at Stansted airport during the afternoon, where he boarded a plane and departed the UK.

This is the result of a global campaign that spanned grass-roots organisers, press freedom campaigners, legislators and leaders from across the political spectrum, all the way to the United Nations. This created the space for a long period of negotiations with the US Department of Justice, leading to a deal that has not yet been formally finalised. We will provide more information as soon as possible.

After more than five years in a 2x3 metre cell, isolated 23 hours a day, he will soon reunite with his wife Stella Assange, and their children, who have only known their father from behind bars.

WikiLeaks published groundbreaking stories of government corruption and human rights abuses, holding the powerful accountable for their actions. As editor-in-chief, Julian paid severely for these principles, and for the people's right to know.

As he returns to Australia, we thank all who stood by us, fought for us, and remained utterly committed in the fight for his freedom.

Julian's freedom is our freedom.

Ryan is a libertarian but there are plenty of conservatives who would echo the same brain dead mantra

Liberalism is a civilizational autoimmune disease eating away at all shared belief, meaning, and purpose

It destroys the ability of a nation to prefer itself to others

Its people, religion, and traditions simply become one choice among many in an economic zone mediated by institutions claiming neutrality

But there are no neutral institutions, behind every policy and procedure lurks a worldview, an understanding about what is valued and what should be pursued

Ryan thinks this post makes him a champion of liberal neutrality, but it doesn't

He has chosen a side, a moral vision, and it is reflected in his post

[Yeerk.P 🦆 @PYeerk]

Writers for film and tv today have no beliefs, no real worldview, no vision of anything, can't write characters or dialogue or plot or action- what they do know is how to cultivate an audience of narcissists by making their work into a spectacle of antagonism towards some imaginary, hated third party

[Martyr Made @martyrmade]

It’s a mistake to believe there are any limits to where they’ll take this if left unchecked. Any sane leadership concerned w/the long-term viability of institutions would be coming out today saying things that treated the unprecedented event of prosecuting the leading Presidential candidate w/at least faux gravity and seriousness. They’d recognize that fully half the country considers it illegitimate, and would make noises to try to soothe them.

Instead, from top to bottom, they are gloating and rubbing it in your faces at every opportunity. They don’t care that you think they are illegitimate, they will simply hurt you if you try to do anything about it. And it’s not just “the Democrats,” it’s the entire security state apparatus. It’s important to recognize that this is where we’re at.

@techceopepe I felt similarly, but I tried Naked Whey and have been using it for several months. It's pricey, but there's no additives and my stomach doesn't get tired of it. Maybe worth a shot if you ever reconsider.
