Since it’s #MayThe4th, allow me to once again state that the Star Wars prequels continue to get better and better as the years go on. The story of a broken political machine being manipulated by corrupt politicians to accumulate power is what we are seeing in real time.
They tell us to stay in our homes, keep us away from friends and family...
Of course they don’t want to to it, but that have to do it for us...
And don’t worry guys, it’s just temporary, two weeks to flatten the curve...
And we cheer them on as benevolent leaders as they travel, keep us locked down and eat at French Laundry...
The few, good remaining liberals are shocked as the plot hatched on their watch...
All because a few people had a cough...
Alas good people are starting to have enough and are finally ready to push back.
But they need help so speak up now while you still can...
And most importantly always remember...

Thread: I’ve come to the conclusion that the collapse we’re in now is the inevitable end of what purely secular liberalism looks like. (A sad reality as someone who wrote a book defending liberalism.) The tolerance baked into liberalism is what let Wokeism into the system.
The soft underbelly of that tolerance, and a belief that logic and reason can solve all, are the perfect breeding ground for bad ideas like Wokeism to pop up and breed. And secular liberals, without a bedrock truth other than their own minds, have no defense against this.
Our Founders understood this which is why the Constitution didn’t grant us rights, it protected them. Rights are god given, not man given. Logic needs something eternal beneath it as foundation. This is a point @yhazony@benshapiro@DennisPrager@jordanbpeterson have made often.
