Having a kid has made the encroachment of transgender ideology deeply personal for me and has made me less tolerant of people like David French. I quite literally cannot understand people who go along with this stuff and Republicans who cede even an inch are worse than losers.
Even more unfathomable are people that take their kids to drag queen story hour. You're ruining your child's innocence because you want to feel virtuous about tolerating the intolerable--and that's best case scenario
*corporations and sociopaths pushing cross sex hormones on kids*

david french: now now blessings of liberty white christians are the real problem here's a column about my favorite marvel movies
Sometimes it's actually acceptable and indeed morally righteous to be intransigent because tolerance is not a virtue
Crazy that so many of these people are unhinged creeps. Uh anyway, blessings of liberty and you shouldn't care what other people do in the bedroom just because they want to do it with your children!

The important thing about the spat between James Lindsay and Alex Kaschuta is that Lindsay's behavior is a reminder that "classical liberalism" is a relative of leftism and generally fights the right harder than the left who it views as a kind of misguided cousin (because it is)
The right poses an existential threat whereas the left is just kind of out of control but certainly well-meaning!
Cannot recommend James Burnham’s Suicide of the West enough here, really made the most convincing case I've ever read

Professional and college sports are a massive scam that make you a fat, impotent spectator of life and are the equivalent of pornography in that you are watching men do what you merely settle for fantasize about

Also they're cash cows for the people ruining America
Study in Europe found people who watch "sports every day were at higher risk of obesity after adjustment for age, sex, smoking, alcohol, physical activity, total TV time, disability, and self-rated health." The same is true and probably worse in America researchgate.net/publication/25…
When you consider that a sedentary lifestyle contributes to the causes of erectile dysfunction, watching sports can quite literally make you impotent ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P…

These talking points are unrolled every few years: "the GOP can win big by embracing mass immigration, if they just soften their hearts!" It never pans out, and relatively small gains are framed as shadings of an illusory red wave to come on the back of mass immigration 1/
How has that worked out for California? The GOP there has basically become the diet Democratic Party. For example, why didn't Reagan's amnesty put California's immigrant population squarely in the GOP corner? "But look at the gains in this county this election!" 2/
Trump made gains with Hispanics, OK--but Trump got a smaller share of their vote than previous GOPers, and this despite him backing off on immigration rhetoric and floating amnesty for DACA and the American Dream plan. Nevertheless, they were decisive in helping Biden win 3/

Rich Grennell and a few other prominent MAGA people are crusading against critics objecting to the GOP embracing transgenderism as normal and healthy, framing opposition as bigoted. It's therefore evident that on some social issues Trump's GOP is further left than before 1/
This is hilarious because liberals view Trump’s GOP as ultra socially conservative, which is simply not true. Meanwhile, for all MAGA's talk of the culture war, they're adopting socially left positions and reframing them as moderate (fiscally responsible!) alternatives 2/
Trump's GOP, prominent MAGA figures are engaging in cancel culture to intimidate detractors into shutting up--you either embrace Trump-brand LGBTQ ideology or you're bigoted and get left behind. Okay, so perhaps add an asterisk to "America Uncanceled" as MAGA's new war cry 3/

Republicans want to normalize transgenderism at a slightly lower dose than the Democratic Party. In other words, they're fine with Drag Queen Story Hour as long as the drag queens are wearing MAGA hats
This but with MAGA so it's fine -- but remember, it's Democrats that want to destroy the family and hate traditional values! Image
Crazy thought: Republicans shouldn't embrace transgenderism because it's convenient but instead frame the issue as the normalization of something that is related to mental illness with devastating social consequences which requires compassionate care instead of enabling
