The choice to embrace a religious belief, in this case, Christianity, as a foundation for understanding Western civilization, represents a fundamental philosophical error.
The greatness of Western civilization does not lie in its Judeo-Christian religious traditions, but rather

No no no you *really* shouldn’t do that. This is a very useful book that is not motivated by hate. This would be a terrible decision if you remove it.

Does anyone have any grasp on what this will look like when these evictions start happening en masse? I gotta think this is only going to lead to more civil unrest. I can’t understand how the government can get away with shutting everything down and not supporting its citizens.

it’s a teacher - parents with kids in her class should know she condones the assassination of Donald Trump, that is meaningfully relevant information.

Good god it’ll always be amazing to me how this issue blinds people to the glaringly obvious.
It is completely reasonable for lesbians to not want to be with individuals who are born as males.
Commit that to memory.
This is the actual hell many have been warning about.
This is the endgame.
Try to objectively define what causes 'psychological harm' with another person and watch how quickly literally anything could be placed under its purview.
This is the madness that must stop.
Social media users could face two years in prison for sending messages or posting content that causes 'psychological harm' under the government's new online harms bill
Ministers are looking to include so-called Twitter “pile-ons” as a possible offence
@HazelAppleyard_
it’s the aggressive recruitment of kids which makes this issue intolerable
adults can do what they please in the privacy of their own lives
but don’t try to convince my kid that their “gender” is somehow fluid and that they can change it on a whim
@ScottAdamsSays
It’s a good swing Scott. I think coming from you it may be auto-rejected by most.
I’m genuinely interested in the project of solving for how to effectively and compassionately reverse the impacts of the media manipulation we’ve seen.
If you haven't signed up yet, do it! Then tell your real world friends and family to do it! You could be getting money in your bank account from this soon if enough people sign up. This is basically collective bargaining for our data rights.

I understand you think you need to signal this but you don’t.
For a growing number of people on earth it reveals your lack of knowledge at best or integrity at worst.
Stop carrying water for racist ideologies masquerading as virtue.

@billmaher
I really don’t think so. Even putting that aside though, the fact that we’re seeing kids transition in *groups* clearly shows there is some social pressure element at play.
I really don’t get why so many on the left are so slow to see the writing on the wall with this issue.
@BillyM2k
responses to the extreme right and left are very asymmetric - bc right is purported as evil while the left is just “confused w good intentions”.
The reality is *everyone* is just confused w good intentions

@EricRWeinstein
I’m constantly checking my intuitions on this. The reason I think what’s happening now is different is that tech has enabled these destructive concepts to spread mimetically so there’s a stronger foundation for the bullshit. Not world ending🤞but a lot more unnecessary suffering.
@HeidiBriones
Not sure if this is a friend or just a chance conversation but consider staying in touch with her if you weren’t already.
That kind of intellectual isolation can wear heavy and having someone sane to talk to can really help, especially if she really doesn’t have anyone else.
We really need to start thinking harder and challenging our preconceived notions.

this is a transparent and standard lefty trick Paul

presumption should be he’s not including dual citizens in his claim
and when we make this presumption his point is *perfectly valid*
The socialist left continuously fails to connect two dots: the absolutely incredible lives they live relative to someone just 100 years ago + Capitalism. Does capitalism have flaws we need to correct for? Yes. But it *is* the engine powering civilization and we need it.
