We’ve already run this socialist experiment over several generations on Native American reservations here in the USA. And it has failed beyond comprehension. It has sadly essentially destroyed an entire culture.
Gov housing, gov food, gov medical care, and gov cash supports. Result? Some reservations estimate 85-90% of working age men never hold consistent full-time jobs, entire communities locked into generational poverty, crime and full gov dependency. Violent crime, incest, sexual abuse, pedophilia, and drug use as high as 10x the national average in many cases. Life expectancies sometimes 20 YEARS lower than non-reservation peers within the same counties…
NYC’s new socialist policy plan is the beginning of the same failed playbook but on a larger scale and in our largest US city. This be fought harder by everyone and more proactively as they’ve already shown their hand on the grand plan.
Making the basics free kills work ethic and kills incentive and once those are gone, its game over as gov reliance takes over and social order erodes almost immediately. Real data shows this breeds permanent dependents, not prosperity. Why is this prime and current example here on our own soil constantly ignored?
This speech from Zohran Mamdani on America’s 250th changed my politics.
I’ve never seen a more pompous individual whose life has been void of any sacrifice or hard work confidently lecture as if people like him hold the key to human prosperity.
Here’s a guy who had never held a job until he found the angle to satisfy his thirst for attention through politics at age 30, sit behind George Washington’s desk and give us a lecture on what is supposed to be a day of celebration.
Instead of celebrating what this country built, prosperity and human rights that spread across the globe from basically nothing, he turns the moment into a lecture about how America is this flawed project desperately in need of topdown change from useless academics and politicians who’ve never built anything of value for anybody.
As I get older, I have started wrestling with my own ridiculous and undeserved comforts, and the massive sacrifices of generations that made them possible. We should be expressing sheer gratitude for the families who crossed this country in covered wagons chasing a future, for the young men who died in muddy fields and frozen trenches defending it. At some point we let the children forget about this, and it's going to be a tragedy.
Our ancestors didn’t sacrifice so we could sit around demanding more redistribution while building nothing of value ourselves and living in opulence kings couldn't have dreamed of. They built something exceptional through risk, and relentless work.
Watching someone like Mamdani use the 250th as an opportunity to lecture us about what’s wrong with America, it just flips a switch for me. I’m done with the ingratitude.
We need to defend America from those that leech off it's greatness and attempt to redefine it.
The umpire got hit in the nuts not once, not twice but three times in four innings. And not once did he think, maybe I should find a cup.
But the noise he made every time he got hit was the best. And I swear, I’m pretty sure someone said “he’s dead” on the very last one.
Funniest shit you’ll see today.
Communists need children to vote because you have to be mentally under-developed to buy the bullshit socialists try to sell you. They’re like the student body president promising no homework and free soda in the drinking fountains.
