Time for RICO trials before the hanging judge

Perhaps you are moving away from the "let's all go and vote harder for the GOP"?

Was she programmed to kill Christians after her emotions were turned off by the hormones and blockers?...they won’t let us see the full autopsy report, so we’ll never know

What would you look for in an autopsy report that would shed any light on that question?

Transgender ideology the thrill of crossing point of no return self stupidity ensues with great sorrow.

I don’t know what others think, but I think it was the SSRI in her system that was causing her to be unfeeling, like a robot. Those drugs are used to prevent the highs and lows of emotions.

[FamiliarFace]

I would look for what SSRI she was on. The medical community knows those are dangerous drugs, but they hand them out like candy.

[telescope115]

Well, that’s a good question. I’m not qualified to look for whatever might be in there, if anything, that would tell us.

I would like to see “her” manifesto, however..

So, best described as a ‘fascistic cult’.

When I see rows and rows of ‘Pride’ flags, I see Nazi flags.

Within these academic institutions, so-called experts in the field of transgender medicine would simply declare that puberty blockers and other interventions were the gold standard of care.

"Experts" again! I got sick and tired of being forced to wear masks, "social distance," and stay home based on what "experts" were telling us.

Recall that the term "expert" comes from two words--"ex," meaning a has-been, and "spurt," a stream of urine.

***in reality, when you “affirm” these individuals’ gender identity, what you are doing is affirming their hatred for themselves***

They are encouraged to rebel against how God created them. That will never end well; that is what the serpent tempted Eve with in the Garden. I remember one story, I think it was a teacher in California, that a mentor persuaded a child to undergo trans procedures, including surgery. Eventually the child realized that their life's potential was severely damaged; they wrote a suicide note, went out on the expressway and stepped in front of an oncoming truck.

The mentor's reaction? 'What a beautiful story!' sigh

The left is sacrificing innocent children to appease their “Sun-gods”.

The more successful people were in tamping down the wholesale murder of innocent babies in the womb, the more the morally decrepit left needed to find a new way to make their sacrifices. When you think of it in those terms, this approach is ongoing and probably more delightful to these evil monsters. Snuffing out a life vs. ensuring a life of misery.

Do you know who this guy was?

And do you know what happened to his research?

Lord help our children. And destroy the enemy of what is good and right. Utterly destroy them Lord!

You are right to boil it down to Truth. The nut of the matter is whether Truth is objective or subjective.

I believe that question is largely a cleavage point in that if a chisel is placed on the rock of politics with that question, a blow to that chisel will split somewhat cleanly separating Leftists from Conservatives.

Leftists believe Truth is subjective, whatever you decide it is. Conservatives believe in objective truth, truth that can be confirmed through the application of the scientific method.

Conservatives believe in observations of reality to find Truth in this world, and we can accept God's world on faith.

Leftists believe in faith in this world for everything which is why they believe in Globalism, high taxes, global warming, white supremacy, transgenderism, and so on. They are wholly objective on God, and refuse to believe unless they have proof. That is, they have the two things backwards. That is why we find it so jarring to hear a Supreme Court Justice nomination baldly state she cannot define a woman. Or some celebrity declare that yes, she believes a biological man can menstruate or have babies.

It all boils down to whether you believe Truth is subjective or objective. Because if you think truth is subjective you have a Willy Wonka Gold Pass into Cuckoo Land. In Leftist Cuckoo Land, the world is filled with possibilities. Men can be women, dogs, cats, unicorns, you name it. The laws of finance only mean what you say they mean. To Leftists, how much money you have on hand has no bearing in how much money you can spend. If you don't like being in a recession because the economy has been retracting for two quarters in a row, you merely change the official definition, and you aren't in a recession any more. You think simply not sending people to jail for violent crime will reduce violent crime. And so on.

And in the end, it is whether your Truth is Subjective or Objective.

I posted this yesterday on a thread titled "Woke ‘Grease: Rise of the Pink Ladies’ Canceled After One Season, Will Be Removed from Paramount+" and someone said it was because people didn't want to see minorities on their television programs, so they don't watch, and the show bombs.

I disagreed and wrote this:

I disagree. I don’t think it has anything to do with people not being keen on seeing minorities in their tv shows.

It has to do with the principle of authenticity in the context of honesty. Wokeness isn’t genuine. It feels absolutely un-genuine.

The secret of film (TV or Movies) is that somewhere, somehow, in some way, it has to touch a spark of genuineness in a person watching, no matter how small. But it has to make a connection.

To that person watching, that is the connection point that must exist no matter how minute, to conduct any appreciation or enjoyment.

It is a form of “truth” that forms in them act allows them to enjoy it.

I think that the secret to success is really to get people to be able to reach the point they can enjoy the movie by suspension of belief. Where they start paying attention to the story someone is trying to tell, and to identify with it.

That is why people watch movies.

Wokeness is the polar opposite of authenticity. It is completely false in its premise (that physical “diversity” is far more important than intellectual “diversity”. And I believe every person knows this is true, but to Leftists to whom any means is justified by the ends, that they can lie to themselves about something that fundamental.

So, when someone reads a book, sees a movie, watches a newscast, or hears a speech, the inauthenticity of wokeness overrides anything meaningful that the source might intend to convey. It completely blocks that connection of truth.

And in those who do allow their logic to be overridden by their emotion (the need to belong to the collective) and they allow a Mal-formed connection to be made (such as is seen in Leftists) it creates a cognitive dissonance that ricochets around inside their skulls, knocking out chunks of rationality as it flies about.

That is why I think “normal” people don’t want to watch it. It is fundamentally inauthentic. And who has time to waste on that?

[dennisw]

Disgusting and extreme child abuse by idiot doctors and idiot parents. My opinion is the C19 vaxxxes have messed up these people’s minds.

[FamiliarFace]

Good post.

What you said about the movies is insightful.

Last night we watched “The Sting” again. Great movie. When it was finished, there were extra features that we could watch, so we did.

There were a lot of interviews done many years later with most all of the actors. One thing they said over and over was the attention to small details that the director and writer of the screenplay was phenomenal. Everything had to be very specific to the con man culture, their language, the way they could get someone to believe them. Those things made the movie believable and authentic.

You’re very right about the lack of genuineness in woke culture. It’s where Bud Light has royally screwed themselves over, and there’s no way for them to recapture their former buyers, because the cat is out of the bag. Now people know how much they’ve been played, and they aren’t happy about being fooled.

It is about Truth. If truth is subjective, then it can’t be truth.

Anyway, great post. I sure enjoyed reading it.

Effective movies do smoke and mirrors to make you think it is Luke Skywalker aboard an Imperial vessel telling Princess Leah he is there to save her, when in actuality, it is actor Mark Hamill talking to a piece of masking tape on a piece of plywood paint flat black.

If done effectively, we interpret it as taking place on an Imperial vessel instead of a Hollywood set.

That small kernel of truth enables all that follows.

If the set was poorly done, people would think it was in a set in Hollywood.

[Altura Ct.]

That is why I think “normal” people don’t want to watch it. It is fundamentally inauthentic.

No doubt but also people don't want to be forced and they are trying to cram it down our throats. All of it - all this race crap, all this wokeness, man/woman BS etc.

[Brian Griffin]

Google the combination of the name of a major medical system and the word gender.

Some people might wish to reexamine their wills.

Thanks gor the link. I knew about the books being burned, didn’t know who he was.

Ironic.
