The application of reason to the creation of human values -- Ingenuity, innovation, creativity, the ability to produce freely based on them, and to keep the rewards of our creation -- this is what we must fight for!
We need to end the obviously evil Iranian regime and Hezbollah. Like a weed, we can’t leave any roots or they will grow back.
This is so obvious, and Trump used to have the moral frame. Why did we stop? Did we run out of interceptors or something?
🚨🇺🇸🇰🇼🇮🇷 Iran attacked 2 major U.S. bases in Kuwait: Ali Al Salem and Camp Arifjan.
Explosions, possible multiple impacts.
This is Iran’s new “one-up” playbook: every American strike gets answered harder.
Methodical escalation is the name of their game.

The Iranian threat in the Strait of Hormuz may be more hollow than what is being reported. It’s imperative we use military force to open the Strait and get Arab oil out into the international markets.

If the frozen assets from Iran were released back to the regime, it would only strengthen the hand of the religious fanatics running the IRGC. This would be completely contradictory to our interests.

After years, I read again Marcuse’s infamous
‘Repressive Tolerance’.
It was worse than I remembered;
it’s like that monologue of Ayn Rand's villain
Ellsworth Toohey.
But while Toohey spoke safely to an audience of one,
Marcuse spoke openly to the whole world,
like a Bond villain revealing the mastermind plan.
But this post isn’t just about Marcuse.
I thought ‘he cannot be THAT blunt and evil;
maybe I’m missing something’…
So I went online to find various leftist reviews
and videos on the essay, trying to see the other side.
These were WORSE than the essay itself.
At least in the essay the intellectual thug is open:
you plebs are not mentally developed enough to have rights, so your freedoms shall be under the whip
of a philosopher king like myself and my friends.
The leftist reviews double down on viewing us as idiots,
and hoping we’ll never read, or understand, the essay,
omit the authoritarianism-on-steroids vision,
and present it as an emancipatory progressive humanistic triumph.
This is intellectual dishonesty akin to reviewing ‘Mein Kampf’ as the memoirs of a political prisoner,
ommitting the parts about the visions for a
War to the East, and solving the Jewish Question.
But more on all that on tonight’s episode
with @yaronbrook dedicated to the Frankfurt School.
PS: because we’re better than such leftists
and we care about the truth,
big part of the episode will be about
debunking some of the hysterical
right wing conspiracies about the Frankfurt School.
@MDSebach If you haven't check out Crushing Capitalism by Norbert Michel, or at least check out his interview on YouTube with @yaronbrook. Norbert does a great job of explaining this phenomenon with real data and how populists intentionally fudge the numbers.
This is a joke, right? Another deadline -- is anyone counting how many have been given.
Stop threatening and act, NOW, to end the Iranian regime, or at least weaken it to the point, the Iranian people can overthrow it...
🚨 BREAKING:
Iran has reportedly been given a 24-hour deadline.
After that, the world could potentially witness one of the largest and most devastating airstrike campaigns in recent history.
