There are still universities teaching courses on Gamergate.
The Left has not forgotten Gamergate. They expected the nerds to kowtow to them, and they didn't. They will never forgive that.

I had to hang up. The guy refused to debate the issues and just started insulting my wife and kid, I told him multiple times not to do that. What a piece of shit, rarely say that.

Their definition of "comfortable" is "A 2,000-square foot apartment in one of the most sought-after locations in the world, and every meal is Doordash."
@AuronMacintyre
Oh, no, not you too.
Context matters. That dog was aggressive. It attacked a neighbor's livestock as well as Kristi herself. Likely only a matter of time before it would have attacked a child.
In this picture, you can see every single copy of

's Theft of Fire that I have (so far) had a hand in the purchasing of.
The Kindle copy was the first one I got, since it's natural to be wary of a new author.
Above it is the hardcover copy I got for my

Oh, they're definitely going to try the camps. Why do you think they keep clutching their pearls about the big, nasty right-wingers wanting to send them there?

I totally don't recommend someone buying a case of liquor and leaving it just outside the Palestinian protestors' university encampments.
@whstancil
You know full well that every single charge was politically-driven bullshit.
Even if your wit is mid enough that you don't, voters can see that.

>But once sacred things are paid for quid pro quo, their sacred nature is destroyed. I am sorry, but do I really need to explain this?
Unfortunately, you do, judging by what I've read in pro-sex work circles.
@moveincircles
I still have yet to hear a useful definition of "patriarchy". Every feminist I've heard use it ultimately admits that it means "Anything I don't like that I can somehow blame men for."

Yes. Because woke people want censorship to be a universal rule.
You shouldn't be able to enjoy freedoms you won't let others enjoy.

This is exactly why I call myself a neo-reactionary. As Nick Land put it, "No way out but through." Yes, we'd be much better off if the gay race communists were gone, but if we don't address what enabled them to come to power in the first place, they'll just be able to do it
It's been kind of amusing, from a distance, to watch

melt down over men in dresses invading women's private spaces.
She still doesn't get it.
She doesn't understand that first they came for the men. Only then, much later, did they come for the women.
She doesn't
1. Black lives matter.
2. ‘Karen’ is not a racist slur.
3. ‘All Lives Matter’ is, even if it might sound inclusive on its face.
4. White cishet conservative Christians are not an oppressed minority.
5. Wear your mask and practice social distancing.
6. Moisturize.

I think your debate with
@Styx666Official
should be held up as the Gold Standard of streaming debates. You were both cordial, both lucid and thoughtful, and the two of you attacked the issue instead of one another.
@GreeneMan6
You're still a champ. I've said before that I wish I had your patience. I meant it then, and I mean it now. But let's not waste time with lost causes.

In a more ideal future, the biggest danger from synthetic meat (say, vat-grown krill seasoned to imitate ham) would be that it would dissatisfy any prissy, entitled corporate types who try to hijack your mining scow to strongarm you into a heist.
Just spitballin' here.

So, are you saying that women can't think for themselves? That they lack the higher brain power required to predict consequences? That they don't have consciences?
At what point are women held accountable for their own actions?

When that time comes, we should mock her relentlessly. I know it's distasteful, but nothing is more effective at killing bad ideas than mockery.
@eyeslasho
An African economic powerhouse is possible, but not inevitable. Making it happen will take some things that will be incredibly distasteful to modern Western sentiments.
Even then, it won't happen in the lifetime of anyone reading this tweet.
@GappyTales
It was women who invaded men's spaces, women who outlawed the men's spaces they couldn't invade, and women who pushed the lie of "Gender is a social construct" on our entire society.
It's only fair that women should have to bear at least some of the brunt of the consequences.
@Aris_Utensil
One of the biggest reasons I stopped being a libertarian was because I couldn't convince other libertarians that it's a really bad idea to give freedoms to those who aimed to destroy those freedoms.
@GreeneMan6
Bishop Barron has argued that if Luther had handled things a little differently, instead of Protestant churches, there would today be a Lutheran order within the Catholic Church. Not sure if I believe that, but it's interesting to think about.
@Devon_Eriksen_
High school was the worst period of my life. I was completely fucking miserable there. Getting out and reading things like "Weapons of Mass Instruction" by John Taylor Gatto was such a relief to me to find out that it wasn't me who was broken, it was (and still is) the system.
@Grummz
I like Wuk Lamat just fine. And pivoting away from the player character is perfectly justifiable, given that in EndWalker, we literally saved the whole world.
But yes, Wuk Lamat deserves a better VA, and that one woke localizer needs to be issued a slip matching her hair color.
@AnEriksenWife
They booted me from their group, with zero warning or explanation, for endorsing Theft of Fire in there, and blocked me from rejoining.
That group is run by crazies.

None of us have thus far seen you make any criticism of the government school system besides "those brats just need to be whipped harder". That's on you.

Enforcing immigration law is fascism? Providing affordable energy is fascism? Preventing the murder, grooming, and mutilation of children is fascism? Taking away government power over childhood education is fascism?
You don't know what fascism is, clearly.
