@Chestertonshere@BasedTorba Their ideas, energy, willingness to contribute & participate. The tone was "Sit down and be quiet & bide your time. You don't know anything. We got this." But the facts on the ground dictate that they don't "got this." They should be building a coalition, not rejecting new blood.
@gooden64046@BasedTorba These were ranchers and farmers. Successful. Well dressed. Intelligent. Thoughtful. Hard working men. I know the breed you are referring to. This group was not anything like you describe.
Both the lower IQ and highest IQ whites are right-wing, which tends to be attributed to the fact that midwit left-wing propaganda goes over the heads of the former and is seen through by the latter.
There’s truth to this, but it overemphasizes the intellect. The ideals, the symbolism, the health, the body language of the right are apparent to all, prior to any intellectualization. The “vulgar” Trump supporter knows self-assuredness when he sees it; knows a hero when he sees one. And in fact, so does the midwit — who is then overjoyed to find left-wing propaganda that finally enables him to rationalize the resentment such a sight inspires.
In many cases, the vulgar Trump supporter himself is content and self-assured, and ranks well on certain hierarchies despite a lower position on maybe IQ or class. The genius Trump supporter may or may not be on top of many hierarchies, but in some cases, intelligence is the only prominent one where he ranks well, which might inspire the assumption that all political orientation comes down to intellect. There are also instincts to love one's country, love beauty, love freedom, love community, love order, regardless of intelligence.
What’s notable, then, about the midwit white left-winger is not their mediocre intelligence, but their narcissism; that there are no hierarchies that reward them except for midwit moralizing, and that that’s something they can’t accept.
The Left has always correctly surmised that the "marketplace of ideas" is a total myth. Democracy, too, is a myth. So is the idea that if we leverage our freedom of speech or engage in enough open dialogue with the other side, the truth will inevitably prevail and then manifest itself in legislation.
All of these things are basically childish ideas about how politics actually works, but we keep clinging to them because they make us feel good.
Here’s how things actually work.
You take power
You defund your enemies
You hire your friends
You enact policies that send your enemies into exile while importing new voters who are loyal to you
And you rinse and repeat all of this until your political worldview gets installed as the equivalent of "just being a heckin' decent human being."
This is all so easy to understand, but every time someone says it out loud, we treat it like they’ve either said something unbelievably scandalous, or they're the second coming of Machiavelli.
@grayzoneintel I'm in Southern Oregon and would travel to Idaho for the January event and organize one for our group here at home. What are the details for Idaho please? Thank you.
@labosint@BasedTorba I just ran as a Christian Conservative in a secular ultra left city and got just under a third of the vote. I will run again. I also set the record for most money raised. We must keep showing up.
@BasedTorba One side note. One attendee is also a retired Marine Colonel and the president of our local gun and archery club. He said that a usual sign up class is 5 people. He had 20 young people join the first class after election night. Harness that energy and we win.
Multicultural democracies inevitably devolve into waring ethnic blocs battling for control of the state so they can extract money for their people and punish their enemies
You can have representative government or diversity, you can’t have both
Why are the young families missing from your church?
Because your congregation has no shared economic life.
You share a hymnal on Sunday, and on Monday every household is an island fighting inflation alone. The older men sit on commercial real estate and successful businesses while the young fathers drown in rent.
Take the risk. Back the young men in your church. Fund their start-up. Bring them in as apprentices to mentor.
Be a faithful patriarch to your own people, not an isolated consumer.
@Codie_Sanchez This is one of the reason why the left is organized and the right isn't. I know this post is about business but it also applies to the political landscape.
@AuronMacintyre I listen to every episode and I will state with clarity and conviction that the information you share is the most important message for people who care to save our nation. Digestible, accurate and actionable. Thank you. I hope more start to listen. The hour is certainly late.
Democracy is fake
Elites don’t respond to voters, there is no market place of ideas, popular sovereignty is a lie
The ruling class has an agenda that they implement no matter what, the Constitution doesn’t govern the United States
Walter Kirn just exposed how the elites control your mind with fear.
“They have actually looked at the frontal lobe as a piece of real estate.”
“And they are constantly occupying it.”
“You aren’t allowed to live in your own mind anymore.”
“You haven’t been thinking for yourself.”
“Adam Townsend… is a former Goldman Sachs trader.”
“And he has a theory about what’s going on and why this election was such a wipeout.”
“Your mind is being occupied by a series of outrages.”
“Abominations.”
“Traumas.”
“And challenges.”
“That do not allow you to think.”
“Two days ago, before the election, you were told there was going to be a nuclear war.”
“Tucker Carlson came out and said, there’s an imminent nuclear exchange about to go on in Iran.”
“And I realized that we have been subject to now for months, years… to a series of scares that each of which has come to nothing.”
“Will AI break out and take over the traffic lights of America, causing massive gridlock or collisions all at once?”
“I say we’re gonna have to resist frontal lobe occupation.”
“Laugh at every disaster.”
“Is this not the essential lesson of Covid?”
“To fear not?”
@walterkirn
Arabs won't be a minority in Arabia
Jews won't be a minority in Israel
Indians won't be a minority in India
Chinese won't be a minority in China
Only White Europeans are projected to be the minority in all their countries
Objecting to this is "White supremacy"
