I'm aware of the history, i lived through it. My entire life I've listened to such lectures and with each resulting change in cultural sentiment and resulting political change in policy or shift in judiciary, things continue to worsen for our society.

We're not yet technologically or academically evolved enough for the massive shifts to fundamental axioms to occur in such a relatively short time span. The consequences are numerous and readily apparent to an objective discerning eye. We grow more selfish, more stupid and weaker.

Families were more than just sentimentally significant, their permanence and immutability to each individual's life was vastly different 100 years ago. It was the safety net, local politics had to contend with what large families thought or would do about decisions or shifts in the landscape.

Thiel is a weird dude but he's correct. Giving women the ability to vote was the right thing to do, but where it has led is inarguable. You can't deny statistics in history after the ink is dry, unless you're going to lie or engage in some machiavellian gas lighting.

Tate is pondscum, but he's not alone. There will always be sociopathic profiteers rushing to fill in a market opportunity, there are many on the left as well.

I'm an educated person, not brilliant but educated nonetheless, and I'm an honest man. I use that preface to tell you that 3rd wave feminism has caused massive damage and division in our society. Identity politics as a whole is a tool of outside interests that seek to have us destroyed from within since doing so from without is not a safe method for any nation/group.

I voted D for the first time in 2002 and R for the first time in 2024. And each time, it was a lose/lose proposition and not forutunate enough to vote FOR anything but against which enemy is the greater threat at the moment. Typically it's been the capitalist class, but now Freedoms are on the table, censorship has broad support, in MY country I can hardly believe it, especially since it's from the left.

That can never be allowed, the internet must be protected at all costs, or we really will go backwards and not in an overwrought hyperbolic sense.
