Christopher Nolan is the man who “Trojan horsed” a warning about radical Marxist ideology inside a Batman movie.

@BrotherAugusti2 @StephenLimbaugh @PageauJonathan I think its self evident

[Matt Brown @mattbrw08]

@BrotherAugusti2 @StephenLimbaugh @PageauJonathan They obviously didnt do it on purpose. Just speaks to the deeper truths at play

[Matt Brown @mattbrw08]

@DonovanNagel @PageauJonathan His post is saying something very wise and important. If you missed it, youre missing the deeper moves at play

[Matt Brown @mattbrw08]

@StephenLimbaugh @PageauJonathan I get your point, if someone is focused on the actual person I agree. They obviously didnt expect the social mob to raise it like they did. Im saying for what the movie is, she fits the role well. She IS a Trojan horse to the viewer by pointing her out as a deceiver

@StephenLimbaugh @PageauJonathan Auto correct - changing of sexes

[Matt Brown @mattbrw08]

@StephenLimbaugh @PageauJonathan Im saying even if you agreed with women's, changing of semester, the movie actually makes a subtle mockery of it by casting her- saying she is a deceiver and is hiding a hidden agenda

[Matt Brown @mattbrw08]

@EricTropicalTX @jgreenhall The race swapper ellen/elliot Page plays Sinon. The role is literally being a deceiver, someone who says one thing speaking a fake message of the Trojan horse, meanwhile sneaking in a whole new plan.

As a deceiver, the casting is perfect. Kinda uses her real life persona

[Matt Brown @mattbrw08]

@StephenLimbaugh @PageauJonathan If he/she is playing Sinon, her role is literally to deceive someone into believing her meanwhile having a whole Trojan horse plot behind the mask.

It actually is perfect and uses her real life persona of deception to help convey the character purpose

First thoughts on The Odyssey.

There is a scene at the very beginning of the film in which, in the absence of his father, Telemachus is being trained by the blind Eumaeus, Odysseus’s loyal servant. Eumaeus warns that the reason Telemachus is constantly being bested by his sparring partner is that his defense is too quick. He must move more slowly, open his chest, invite the attack, and use his opponent’s momentum against him.

In the spirit of Odysseus, deep trickery is at work in this film.

Don’t let the apparent compromises fool you. The Odyssey is an absolute triumph. It is made with a profound love for the source material, filled with deep pathos: the return of the father, the elevation of the son, and the restoration of proper order despite all the sins perpetrated by the guardians of that order.

It is a film about the end of one world and the beginning of another; about remembrance, return, and the perpetuation of an order after a long wandering through chaos.

It’s The Odyssey.

@PokeTCGiveaways Love that card, been waiting for it to drop in price with the rest of the market to buy

I was so sharp and so ready for this fight I cannot believe what has happened. The talk of me being off while walking in to the fight is nonsense. I was calm, ready, and confident. I am in shock what has taken place. The devil is literally staring at me right in front of my face here. I am not engaging. I will be at church tomorrow.

I will overcome this.
I will not be deterred.
I will return.

The biggest lies aren't always told by people. Sometimes they're built into institutions.

If you've seen The Wire, you'll understand this immediately.

When success is measured by the wrong incentives, reality gets distorted. Crime statistics. School results. Economic growth. The same thing has happened with immigration.

Instead of confronting the underlying state of the economy, we've relied on mass low-wage immigration to maintain the appearance of growth.

Our high school goalie would have gotten benched for this. Inexcusably bad.

Major studio blockbusters are now regularly beaten by YouTube horror movies and Christian movies about the founding fathers

Interesting times

To the Americans:

I've travelled all over the world. I've familiarized myself with many places, and met many people. And I'm a Canadian, although I’m privileged to reside once again in the States.

And here's something I've noticed, and it’s a key element of America's continuing greatness:

You bloody Americans value success, and you believe in its existence.

This is something that doesn't really happen anywhere else in the world. Even in other free democracies—the United Kingdom; Finland, Sweden, and Norway; Australia, New Zealand and Canada; Germany, France, and the Netherlands (great countries all)—a counterproductive cynicism too often reigns.

Success is equated with exploitation.
Ambition is looked upon with contempt.

This happens sometimes in the United States too—particularly among the miserable progressives, who confuse their resentment, ingratitude and unearned skepticism with wisdom.

But in your great country, by and large, striving is admired and success celebrated.

This means that more people strive and succeed in the US than anywhere else. And it's increasingly obvious. You remain stunningly more innovative and productive than any people anywhere else on the planet.

And so I say, as all should who are fortunate enough to live in the western world, let alone America:

Thank God for the United States.

Thank God for the wisdom of its founders.
Thank God for its faith in the free market and in the natural rights of man.
Happy birthday, you damn Yankees and Southerners.

Long may your admirable country dominate the world.

Long may your freedom and hope provide an example to those suffering everywhere at the hands of their malevolent states.

May your two and a half centuries of unparallelled success be just the beginning.

Your country is the light of the world, and the city on the hill.

Thank God for the USA.

Happy 250th.

Dr. Jordan B. Peterson

This anchor baby thing feels pretty personal for me.

When my wife got pregnant the first time, I was already working for US-based media/company, and we seriously considered doing the anchor baby thing.

The reason we didn’t, ultimately, was moral: I just didn’t want to break the laws of a country I admired and loved.

This is why I’m so radicalized on illegal immigration: by definition ~anyone who chooses to do immigrate illegally is someone who’s not a good addition to a nation because they don’t have a mindset that values abiding by laws and norms.

It’s literally a test that selects *against* being a good future member of a society.
