If you were shocked by what you saw last night (as many of my centrist & Democrat friends were), ask yourself why you were shocked. Biden’s cognitive deterioration has been evident for a *very* long time: if you weren’t aware of it, or were convinced those claims were “right-wing conspiracies,” that tells you something important about the quality of the news you’re consuming & the institutions you trust.
Ask yourself whether it’s possible that those same outlets which lied to you about the mental fitness of the sitting president might have lied to you about anything else. Look into the Russia collusion hoax, the “fine people” and bleach hoaxes, the origin of COVID-19, Hunter Biden, the evidentiary basis for climate change policies or pediatric “gender-affirming care.” Seek out original sources & uncut video footage, instead of relying on the filter of mainstream media coverage.
Ask yourself this too: who is actually running this country? Do you honestly believe Joe Biden is in charge? Is the “deep state” a conspiracy theory, or is it a reality hiding in plain sight?
Last night was a sad moment for our country to see a mentally debilitated President, but it can still catalyze positive change & open minds that were previously closed. Once you see it you can’t unsee it.
For my own part, I will never fault a fellow citizen for coming to these conclusions “late.” It’s more valuable to unite around the truth than to gloat over who was right first. We’re all human, we’ve all been wrong & been misled before, but we are best off as a nation if we can openly admit it and improve in the future. We’ll have our opportunity to do that this November & beyond.
I've been covering the toxic ideology in universities for years. But if you had told me a month ago that this ideology would lead more than half of Americans under the age of 25 to justify & excuse the torture & mass-murder of a minority group, I would not have believed you.
One of the great tweets of all time
"Yes, sure, gay dudes naked on bikes in front of children is happening. But if it weren't, the Right would just AI it into existence. So we shouldn't stop doing it."
The west is fabulously wealthy, which has allowed it to deny reality for a very long time and in the most extreme ways possible
People will continue to shriek their ideology as the last bits of civilization crumble, but crumble they must, because the bill always comes due

Some interesting research came out recently on the relationship between people with left-wing authoritarian politics, narcissism and psycopathy.
Interestingly, it seems to vindicate many earlier thinkers who theorised about the connection between leftism and pathology.

I walked away from the Democrat party summer 2020 when I was told I could go out and “protest” but not go to work. What bothered me the most about this wasn’t that Democrats disagreed with me, or that they wanted to keep us locked-down—what bothered me the most was that the party I’d belonged to all my life refused to acknowledge I might have any honest reason for disagreeing with them.
Shoutout to Democrats for making me a conservative.
#WalkAway
Trains derailing around the country, toxic fumes pouring into the water supply, enemy aircraft patrolling the sky, inflation driving Americans into poverty, violent crime plaguing our cities
Joe Biden: hey guys I just made concert tickets slightly more affordable!
"It's possible this could be a horrific mass tragedy we will talk about for years to come," said one news anchor. "On the other hand, it may just be a run-of-the-mill local news story that we'll forget by tomorrow…”
And now Fake News begins its work of manipulating a tragedy to help Dems gain political points.
Arguments against the medical transitioning of children are “anti-trans.”
Adults (including LGBT people) against the grooming of children are “anti-LGBT,” etc.
Remember Dems and “experts” warned about this same stuff in 2016.
So, 2016: threat.
2020: no threat stop being an election denier!
2022: the threat is back!
