    The real tragedy is government forcing the rest of the population to accept the quirks of the sexually confused. How did the sexually confused get this much power?

      If you believe in the holy scriptures at all, this is an abomination according to our Lord thy God. A national sickness, if you are not Judo-Christian.
      I had no issue with what people do in their privacy behind closed doors, That's between them and God. It's when they rub my face in it, tell me that I not just accept deviant behavior, but must endorse it. My children are being told they are not just the wrong sex and must be chemically castrated, that they are evil if they are white. Sick puppies.
      It's time overdue to declare war on "wokeness", We are already Sodom and Gomorrah 2.0. And Don't think that God hasn't noticed. The wicked shall be punished.

        I consider myself a Christian although I am not attached to a specific sect. This is looking a lot like the predicted "End Times". Why am I in the Gulch? Because I think Ayn Rand was correct in a lot of her thinking but missed a few points. Also, IMHO, contrary to some popular beliefs Jesus Christ was NOT a socialist or a communist. I ask anyone arguing he was either to show me the scripture where he petitions Caesar or Herod to set up a welfare state. He's likely appalled at all the mayhem and crap perpetrated in His name. BTW, Peter had a sword and apparently knew how to use it, too. Yeah, Rand would very likely throw me out on my ass for having such thoughts, but she's entitled to her opinions.

          As a Christian I’ve just come to the conclusion that I can’t save everyone. Pearls before swine sorta thing. Even the disciples would at times just shake their heads and leave a town. Some choose to live in misery. That’s their choice. Some are happy in this life. That’s fine too. Even the story of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego is a great example. They lived in a corrupt society. Heck by some accounts they were government officials. But the real problems started when Nebuchadnezzar tried to force them to celebrate HIS god. I stand with Rack, Shack and Benny. Just say NO.
          Others can do as they wish.
          If I’m wrong.....there is no penalty. Which is to say my soul, life force, whatever will drift into the blackness along with everyone else’s.

          Ayn Rand taught me how to think in abstractions.

          If you actually study the moments where Jesus uttered phrases like: "Your faith has made you whole" or: I haven't seen faith like this in all of Israel" you will see people who "connected the dots" (not people who believed blindly what was taught by the church).

          The ability to "connect-the-dots" is the REAL definition of the word "faith".

          That is also the definition of the phrase "abstract thinking".

      Appears MSM got their capitulation cue from academia in the absence of any prominent, intransigent intellectuals. Intellectuals like John T. Flynn (of America First Committee fame), or Ayn Rand for that matter, died decades ago. Even Pat Buchanan has now retired, refusing to partake in discussions or editorial submissions any longer. Ron Paul may be one of the last of the classical liberal intellectuals still moderately active. There are some promising conservative voices on talk radio, but they trip up on a few key points that prevent their ideas from achieving circulation much beyond the "evangelical" base.

        The MSM and Tech are so perverse they flood any voices of truth with false state propaganda.
        Rational thought lives only via courageous writers on the net. They are still with us.
        The SCOTUS are treasonous scum who daily violate their oaths to the Constitution.

          Yes, there are some of those too. One can always hope that, as the water starts to reach the boiling point, the chirping of frogs will become an inescapable roar that will penetrate even leftist brains.

      "How did the sexually confused get this much power?"

      The liberals took over the schools. I didn't realize how deep the control was until I read "The God of the Machine". It notes the problem, and it was written in 1943! We have multiple generations raised to believe this tripe, so ingrained in society that it is almost impossible to turn around. As the Jesuits noted "Give me the child for the first seven years and I will give you the man." Take over the schools, and with enough patience, you take over the society.

    The only part that strikes me is...
    So many people REFUSE to believe that there exists a Cabal of Power pulling these strings.

    You know the type, they ask "Who are 'They'?"

    I've recently spoken to someone who believes "No. They didn't lie during Covid. They were operating with the best information they had, trying to do the right thing! You guys act like they did this on purpose..."

    You bring up the Nudge Units. And the FACT that they did DEEP research as to WHICH MESSAGES were the most Effective, Divisive, and easily used against family/friends... And then they WENT WITH THOSE messages...

    They are in disbelief. It can't be true. Their talking heads would never do that. (Oh, and Tucker is a Liar... For good measure. LOL)

    The message is clear.....if you’re a bio male and are convicted of a crime and will be imprisoned.....identify as a woman.

      Yeah, pretend to be a lesbian in a man's body and prepare to be worn out on a daily basis.
      From what dino a retired state corrections officer heard of inmate behavior in female prisons, a so-called lesbian in a man's body will have no need to rape anybody.
      He will just be too tired. Yeah, me dino said HE.
      I do not pretend to be an intellectual, but I do strive to live in a common sense world. Trouble is, too many other people strive to make that impossible these days.

    From student loans to sexual deviations of all kinds to Climate change to etc, etc.

    All of these activities are ways to extract money and attention from a functional Republic. I think it was Ben Franklin who said that the US is “…a Republic, if we can keep it.”. Ben had a vision of the crazies coming out of the woodwork way back then. Another great thinker Milton Friedman(?) said that a country can have open borders or be a welfare state but can not be both and survive.

    Who is John Galt?

    Seems like people needing psychiatric evaluation are instead becoming media darlings with gov. making it a whole issue to be bowed down to. Time to turn off the craziness.These folks never settle in, they just flip flop. This goes back to when the Obamas resided in the WH, and all this crazy stuff actually was aided by them. You cannot be two genders, even though I had a former boss who was married to a wman, , dated gay, but also pedophile, and would try to hit on me, This is just taking no responsbiiilty for their own actions, and wanting national victim status. .It is a sign our country us ruled by equally unstble politicias.

    In Robert A. Heinlein's "Time Enough For Love", the Chairman Pro Tem (leader of the government) dismisses, and then exiles, his Chief Justice, because the judge was engaging in legalistic hair-splitting, instead of being the guardian of equity and justice.
    Perhaps our own legal system could learn from that.

      You'd have to have enough in the House and Senate who adhered to solid governing principles to Impeach and Convict (thereby removing that individual from SCOTUS). That boat sailed a century ago. :(

    So glad I retired from the prison system long ago. Homosexual activity was second or third in the line of problems, gangs, drugs and fights over sex topped the list.

    It is a legal system captured by insanity. One suitcase nuke goes off in Red Square and all of this frothing nonsense will come to an end.
