    Maher richly deserves the hate. Not because he's in the wrong here, but because he worked for decades to perpetuate the same leftist bullshit that's catching up to him (or rather: over-taking him) now. Let the revolution eat its own children-- and choke on them, too!

    The coloured part: Rather than giving it to Putin, I'd prefer for it to be swallowed by the ocean overnight. Along with its inhabitants. (Which includes practically all national-level politicians, and a supermajority of progressive-left voters.)

    To a significant extent, it is. But it's worse than that. There's an actual ideology at the root of this. In Dutch, this is called maakbaarheidsdenken. This is somewhat hard to translate, since it literally means "makeability-thinking", but basically, it refers to "the idea that things can be...

    Wow, what massive failure to understand @mrttao's point is being presented here! "Colleges and universities cannot create the desire from nothing..." They can't create intelligence from nothing. That's the point. That's why it's useless and harmful and downright God-damn cruel to let scores of...

    When a little chaos is introduced into a stagnated system, it's usually beneficial. At the very least, it reveals the true extent of the rot for all to see. Twitter (itself very much rotten) is deeply tied into a wider system of moribund structures. By taking over Twitter and introducing chaos...

    I admit it, I chuckled.

    The "fake" thing is the story in the tweet. It's another case of a leftist just making up some anecdote that supposedly "proves" how evil those bigoted Nazi-like white Trump-voters are. But in reality, it's just #shitthatneverhappened

    Comparing Voyager (and Enterprise) to the Prequels might be fair, but if you want to bring up the sequels, I think the only really justified comparison is with the Bad Reboot films and STD.

    I disagree completely. Historical exceptionalism is just another form of presentism. Every place and time is special in its own way, but not so special that it escapes the course of history. The Romans thought they were unique, too. That their mos maiorum was an unprecedented bulwark against...

    1. You're reading a whole lot into my posts, which makes discussion pretty pointless, because you don't read what I'm saying, only what you think I mean. 2. I'm actually on board with Cato the Elder, in the sense that I believe Rome should ideally have stayed a more modest republic without...

    I've never identified myself as "black-pilled". I just go by history, and I take it from there. The future, on average, looks a lot like the past. I completely agree. This hasn't stopped anyone from resorting to it in the past millennia, though. Nor has it ever stopped elites from becoming so...

    Trump is no more than a temporary obstacle to the established power. See how they have already removed him from power, how they have de-platformed him and vilified him and continue a legal witch-hunt even now, just to keep him off his game and thus unable to effectively plot any potential...

    Well, it is consistent in the political context, where "it's good when WE do it and bad when THEY do it" is the foremost principle. (And, indeed, often the only one!) :p

    I don't disagree with your analysis of the short term. Regarding the quoted statement, however: that 'lock' thet've got will only hold for as long as they can keep buying those votes. Because that's essentially where the hold they've got comes from: "vote for us, get hand-outs". They're not even...
