That is much more likely.

Yeah, but not worse people who are living in very comfortable physical circumstances.

'Incels' are not an 'instant army.' The vast, vast majority of them lack the courage and drive to physically fight for something. If they had that drive, it would be reflected in other parts of life, and they wouldn't be incels. Like any sufficiently large group of people, there are outliers...

Again you are showing ignorance of history. Some supported the conquistadores at the time. Some didn't. Generally those who did were doing it more out of nationalism than any kind of religious fervor or such. Further, the Crusades were a much, much more complicated thing than they were made...

You're showing an enormous ignorance of the history of Christianity, Christian organizations, and 'christendom.' In every era, including the lifetimes of the direct disciples of Christ themselves, there were those within the church who sought after authority, position, and prestige, rather...

This is ignorant of what the actual doctrines of the two religions teach, and what the various political leaders who've used religion as tools historically have done working with and against that. When the 'One True Way' teaches that you should Love your enemies, and pray for those who...

This is a ridiculously one-dimensional perspective on things. Wokists reject literally everything about Christian philosophy and ethos except Egalitarianism, and they don't actually even practice that either, they just pretend to. It's like saying all religions and philosophies root from...

The root problem is cultural rot. When a society abandons what built it, especially when they abandon it for the explicit purpose of rejecting God and trying to make gods out of themselves, it's going to collapse. If you have a catastrophe and the predominant survivors are those who still hold...

I have to ask, what kind of place do you live in? Because here in the US, there are a lot of people who could rebuild civilization from scratch. Even ruling out the people who get 3d printers capable of making things like simple circuit boards, as well as lathes, CnC machines, etc, for the...

That's a symptom, not the cause. The cause is cultural rot.

Stop taking the sensationalized extremes and judging our whole society based on it. Yes, such shit happens, but it's rare, and some places are working on reforming some of the stupid 'he's 18 she's 17, so it's rape' laws as well. Some states already have. Do you want people thinking that your...

Given identity politics was the bread and butter of his public persona, and his presidency was the key driving wedge that advanced so much of the shit we're dealing with now... Yeah, really not feeling it.

...From what I saw, he was told 'no contact at all, no jokes' after he did these things? Because the order that happened in does matter.

I'm curious what she thinks about Mrs. Smith openly cuckolding Will, and publicly saying he 'does not sexually satisfy her.'

Just keep in mind that punishment is partof rehabilitation and preventing further harm. Deterrent is important, as is the victim (and those close to them) seeing that the courts have meted out a reasonable punishment, so there's no need for them to take things into their own hands.

You know, you parrot the exact same lines again and again. Your belief that we're going to rehash not just something similar, but a near-identical repeat of the fall of the Roman Republic has gotten to the point where I literally ignore any of your posts that start down that direction. It comes...

And the pressure continues to build. The eventually backlash is going to be interesting.

You know, it's funny. I've been a gamer since the 90's as well, and even when your temper is running down, if you just exert some basic self-control, your bitching or trash-talking will be much more PG. Then you wouldn't be in this kind of scenario. Of course, that doesn't change the fact that...

Good question, but we should go to a new thread at this point.

Oh, how I wish this were the case. We would live in a measurably better world if it were, because while its lack would not remove tyranny from the hearts of men, it would remove what has by far been the most destructive form it has taken. That you think this also shows me you aren't just a...
