Aaron Gunn | Facebook - "I hate the framing that conservatives are “fighting” or “instigating” the “culture war”. Left wing governments across the West, but especially in Canada, introduced an entirely new subset of issues when they began pursuing a series of radical, ideological policies that took aim at the foundations of western culture and values. You saw this with identity politics. Tearing down our history. The decriminalization of hard drugs. Attempts to redefine gender as a social construct. Conservatives weren’t the ones who took the basic moral framework and consensus of the West and tore it up. The only difference now is conservatives are fighting back."
If you oppose the left's desire to radically remake society, you are wasting your time instigating a culture war, creating wedge issues while ignoring "more important" issues (like cost of living, to which the only answer is more left wing ideology like "taxing the 'rich'", of course). The left wing agenda is normal and natural and to go against it is to go against nature
Bioethicist: Government Whole Milk Push Is Racist | National Review - "The noted bioethicist Art Caplan — with whom I usually disagree, but not always — has really jumped the shark with a column in which he accuses the administration of pushing racism in its publicity promotion of whole milk as part of a healthy diet. From “Is the Recent Effort to Glorify Whole Milk Tainted by Racism?” published in Bioethics Today... Seriously, this is idiotic. One of the honored guests at the Oval Office signing ceremony of the Whole Milk for Healthy Kids Act — mentioned in passing by Caplan, which put whole milk back on school menus — was that notorious white supremacist Dr. Ben Carson. One of the early sponsors was Senator John Fetterman, a famous KKK sympathizer. The bill was passed unanimously in the Senate, a known hotbed of seething bigotry against everything not white. The administration’s biggest promoter of whole milk is RFK Jr., who may be many things, but is not a racist. I mean, really... To paraphrase Freud: Sometimes whole milk is just whole milk. It’s about improving health, not promoting bigotry."
Nina 🐙 Byzantina on X - "This is a great little case study on how the media works. The claim: HALF OF THE WOMEN IN JAPAN WERE SAMURAI! GROUNDBREAKING! To ensure that you’re thinking that they were warriors in the battlefield, The Independent shows you a nice photo of samurai armor, on top of what you already know about the samurai from modern pop culture. At this stage, you’re primed to wipe your tears thinking about girl power in unexpected places (or get angry about). And, of course, many people only look at the headline, to begin with. What the article actually says: “The mercenary group developed into a rural gentry and by 1615 they had moved away from the battlefield to serve as government officials, scholars, and patrons of the arts. It is here where half of the samurai class were women and although they did not tend to fight they were a vital part of the elite order, playing a key role both on and off the battlefield.” In other words, by the time of the Tokugawa shogunate, between the early 1600s and the late 19th-century imperial restoration, the warrior class served various *administrative roles* employed by the government. So, a bunch of women, likely in privileged social positions, worked for the government. That’s cool, I guess, considering the rigidity of the Japanese social structure in terms of the hierarchy and the gender/sex-based roles. But that’s not what they wanted us to think. Furthermore, this is clearly more than simply clickbait. It’s *deliberately* misleading. And if a seemingly benign article on Japanese history is misleading, imagine how misleading hot political topics may be."
Thread by @xwanyex on Thread Reader App – Thread Reader App - "Progressives are way too quick to invoke hate as an explanation for people’s behavior. There is almost no racial hatred in the United States, for example. That’s just not a big factor. The overwhelming majority of people you meet on either side of the aisle have much less intense opinions about race than that. If you think that hate is a big, important, motivating, salient factor in American discussions about race, then you’re starting like a mile behind the starting line and it’s very unlikely that you have any idea what’s actually going on. I mean, to the extent that there is any actual racial hatred in the United States, I have witnessed much more from, say, black Americans with respect to white people than I ever have in the other direction. Again, the problem with progressivism is that it makes claims about the world that are incorrect. Progressives are confused about what’s actually going on. The things they believe are wrong. Everything else is downstream of that."

Dean Cain (Superman's actor) got excluded from Galaxycon for having different "values". : r/KotakuInAction - "This has been the industry standard practice for four years now, basically since the pandemic. The left has begun a purge of all conventions and award shows for movies, television, and my area of expertise...books. They started changing award names in 2012, and have gradually replaced all my heroes in SF&F with woke people no one has heard of. Now, though, they are much more blatant. For example if you leave your pronouns blank in a speaker bio you will be hounded until you fill them in. If you don't fill them in, then you aren't a good fit...see ya! There are all sorts of ideological purity tests, and every right and center author I know has gradually retreated. Few of us are willing to speak at the largest con any more, even though we were the people who started it. We get the last laugh though. We just host our own conventions where we do our own gatekeeping. Meanwhile they use sensitivity readers and can't figure out why their whole readership suddenly bailed on them."
Christian Heiens 🏛 on X - "Liberalism denies that rival political worldviews could even exist to begin with, even as it relentlessly operates like they still do. It’s so ironic, because for all its talk of pluralism, diversity, inclusion, and neutrality, it only recognizes only one political order that has any right to exist. Its own. Everything it calls “universal values” or “just being a good person” or “basic human rights” are all just moralized group membership terms for its own explicitly ideological tribe, and it enforces those terms on everyone regardless of whether they consent to it or even wish to be a part of the tribe in the first place. It’s an explicitly political, tribalistic, and imperialist way of life even as it denies that it’s any of these things at all."

Mainstream liberals speak in completely vacuous platitudes. “No human being is illegal,” “trans women are women,” “healthcare is a human right.” None of these sentences even rises to the level of being false. They have no content whatsoever. They’re ritualistic chants, but people act like they’re not only arguments, but self-evidently correct ones. “I think we should institute medicare for all” or “we should have open borders” have content. I disagree, but I can interact with those statements. “Healthcare is a human right” and “no human being is illegal” are completely empty. They seem to be trying to repackage “ought” claims as “is” claims, but the result is something totally meaningless."

Active Patriot on X - "🚨 BREAKING: 13-year-old shouted "Allahu Akbar"as he stabbed two boys at a school in a terrorist attack in London earlier today A boy of 13 launched a stabbing rampage in a school on Tuesday, leaving two children fighting for their lives in a suspected terror attack. In the middle of a classroom just before lunch, a teenager pulled out a knife and stabbed a 13-year-old boy in the neck and back while shouting 'Allahu Akbar', witnesses said. Seconds later, a second boy aged 12 was knifed in front of screaming children at Kingsbury High School in Brent, north-west London. Armed police raced to the school, but the knifeman had fled. A suspect, who has not been named, was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder after being found hiding nearby around an hour later. Sources said he was not a pupil at Kingsbury High, raising questions about how he managed to get into the school building with a concealed weapon. On Tuesday the two wounded boys were in a life-threatening condition in hospital. Scotland Yard said counter-terrorism police were leading the investigation amid suspicions it was an ideologically motivated attack. Police have yet to formally declare that the stabbings were a terrorist attack as officers were still carrying out searches related to the suspect on Tuesday night. Many of the youngsters who witnessed the stabbing spree were held in the school hall for several hours while police carried out inquiries. The father of one pupil said: 'He [the attacker] came into the school and my son saw him stab a child in the neck. 'Two boys were on the floor and the other children thought they were just playing. But then they didn't get up. It's awful.' A woman said her sister was in the classroom next door She said: 'They heard screaming and crying. Our parents are travelling and they saw it on the news and were so worried. 'My brother was really scared to go back to school. How can you after a stabbing?' Detective Chief Superintendent Luke Williams said police were 'keeping an open mind as to any motivation behind the attack'. He added: 'The suspect, who we believe to be 13, left the scene following the stabbing. After urgent inquiries, our officers arrested him and also recovered a weapon which we believe to have been used in the stabbing. 'The suspect was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder and remains in custody for questioning by our officers.' Detective Chief Superintendent Luke Williams said in a press conference on Tuesday evening: 'Officers were called to Bacon Lane at around 12:40hrs following a report that a 13-year-old boy had been stabbed. Armed and local officers were on the scene within 13 minutes of the 999 call. 'On arrival, we were made aware that a 12-year-old boy had also been stabbed and both boys have been taken to hospital. 'We await an update on how they are, though we understand their conditions to be serious. The thoughts of everyone at the Met are with them and their loved ones, and we want to thank the doctors and nurses who are providing the boys with urgent care. The suspect - who we believe to be 13 - left the scene following the stabbing. 'After urgent enquiries our officers arrested him and also recovered a weapon which we believe to have been used in the stabbing. 'The suspect was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder and remains in custody for questioning by our officers. 'This is a fast-moving and developing investigation, but we are not currently looking for anyone else in relation to this incident. 'At this very early stage, we are keeping an open mind as to any motivation behind this attack. However, due to the surrounding circumstances, the investigation is now being led by officers from Counter Terrorism Policing London, who are working closely with our local officers in response to this incident. 'This has not currently been declared a terrorist incident and the investigation team will now be working at pace to gather any evidence"

The Dictate for Joining the EU. Woke Lexicon Mandatory. Brussels Spends €1.5 Million to Ban Words : r/europe_sub - " The document states: no to terms such as “husband and wife,” “man,” and “homeland.” It is forbidden to use the expression “ladies and gentlemen”; one must say “colleagues.” It is also forbidden to say “Mrs.” or “Miss”; it is preferable to use only first and last names. “Male and female” should be avoided because they “define a biological distinction,” as should “boyfriend or girlfriend, husband or wife,” to be replaced with the generic “partner.” Furthermore, the words “father and mother” may not be used, nor “homeland,” which should be replaced with “country of birth,” just as “mother tongue” should become “native language.” The pronouns “he” and “she” should also be avoided, preferring the plural form “to ensure gender inclusivity,” while the pronoun “one” may be used to replace “the use of the masculine form,” with attention to “non-binary gender identities.” These guidelines, which seem drawn from a woke manual, were set down in black and white in an official document of the European Union and the United Nations entitled “Guidelines for the Use of Language as a Factor of Equality and Inclusiveness.” It is a publication “produced within the framework of the Gender Equality Facility project funded by the European Union and implemented by UN Women,” addressed to the government of Kosovo “with the aim of accelerating the integration process.” In short, among the conditions that Brussels sets for new member states to join the EU is the requirement to adapt to inclusive and politically correct language that erases masculine and feminine, eliminates father and mother, and discourages references to “homeland.” As if the contents of the report and the conditions imposed on states seeking EU membership were not already absurd in themselves, it should be added that the document falls within a project financed by Brussels with €1.5 million. This is the “Gender Equality Facility,” launched on 1 February 2023 for a duration of 30 months (extendable) and aimed solely at Kosovo, but similar programs are in place for all states currently undergoing an accession process—from Albania to North Macedonia, passing through Ukraine and Moldova—with a river of European taxpayers’ money used for linguistic indoctrination. A closer reading of the document reveals that the disturbing aspects do not end there, because what comes under the crosshairs of the guidelines is man as such: “Forms of expression that include the word ‘man’ and its derivatives should be replaced by more inclusive terms depending on the context,” using “gender-neutral terms.” The same applies to the words “female” and “male,” which “reduce [people] to reproductive capacities,” reinforcing the idea “that differences and inequalities are founded on biology rather than on socially constructed roles.” The paradox of these language guidelines is that, in striving to be inclusive, they end up becoming discriminatory toward women by failing to recognize the concept of the feminine. Thus one must avoid saying “actress” and instead use the generic and neutral “actor”; one may not say “female doctor” but “doctor,” nor “policewoman” but “police officer.” The question that naturally arises after reading the 39 pages of the document is whether these are the “European values” so celebrated by the Commission. Is this really how the European Union presents itself to states that wish to join? And again, is this how we spend millions of euros of citizens’ money to finance ideological documents? Questions that we hope will find answers in the appropriate institutional venues, starting with the European Parliament."
Nutty professor Shellyne Rodriguez who held machete to Post reporter's neck tapped by NYC agency for $407,000 art installation - "The unhinged ex-CUNY professor who savagely held a machete to the neck of a New York Post reporter now has a permanent, taxpayer-funded art installation in the Bronx. The NYC Department of Cultural Affairs ignored Shellyne Rodriguez’s infamous past by green-lighting a $407,000 budget for her 23-foot-tall brick, steel and terracotta Marxist monstrosity called “Phoenix Ladder: Monument to the People of the Bronx.” It was unveiled in November along Grand Concourse and Morris Avenue — a little more than two years after she copped a wrist-slap plea deal with Bronx prosecutors for her assault on veteran New York Post scribe Reuven Fenton... Bronx residents bashed the piece as a polarizing eyesore. “Somebody who’s violent; there’s better people who should’ve been given the opportunity,” said Frankie Santiago. “It looks like a piece of junk.” “If she’s offensive like that — and they’re using taxpayer money and getting privileges — maybe we should rethink this,” said Jose Lopez. “It looks kind of weird,” he added. The self-proclaimed “black Marxist” told Hyperallergic in November she conceptualized the piece seven years earlier during a time “when the memorialization of the violent foundations of the United States was collectively being called into question.”... She was immediately fired from her gig at Hunter after the attack, but dodged jail time and a criminal record through a sweetheart deal brokered by Bronx prosecutors and approved by Democratic Judge Dan Quart — by completing counseling and staying out of trouble for a year. In February 2024, she was axed from another teaching gig at Cooper Union for anti-Israel screeds... The agency also ignored questions about whether it considered pulling the award before construction began after a smirking Rodriguez was arrested in May 2023 and slapped with harassment and menacing charges for threatening to “chop” Fenton up. Instead, the agency said that criminal background checks aren’t part of the Percent for Arts’ commissioning process, but it follows city procurement rules to select “responsible” contractors."

Christian Heiens 🏛 on X - "Every invocation of "universal love" is always invoked to legitimize a very particular form of hatred. The Left does this thing where it denies the existence of its own ideology as being political at all. It's just "love". It's just morality-as-politics, or simply "being a good person". And Leftists insist this is all they're doing, even as they engage in the most aggressive and ruthless forms of politics imaginable. Nothing is ever depicted as a power struggle between competing worldviews. It's always a crusade against social ills, pathologies, and evil itself. "Conservatism" doesn't exist to these people. There's no legitimate opposition, only a criminal element that has to be destroyed because Leftists have already declared themselves to be the universal manifestation of morality, peace, kindness, love, progress, and everything that is good and just in this world. But everyone can see just how utterly hypocritical these people are. We continuously see examples of these same people exhibiting the most immoral, disgusting, and downright evil manifestations of hatred and violence against people and factions that they despise. They just call it "love" as they do these things."
Just like "hate" is anything that opposes the left wing agenda
