The quest to create New Soviet Man begins with attacking every aspect of the old definition of humanity, pounding people into malleable ideological clay. Thus does "mother" become "birthing person."
It's no coincidence the radicals have been working so hard to redefine human sexual identity for generations now. They understood it was the perfect stress point to hit with their totalitarian sledgehammers if they wanted to demolish human identity and individuality.
The reality of human identity that carried us through thousands of years of civilization was destroyed, so that we could be reprogrammed with a blizzard of new, more politically useful identities. The common denominators of the human condition were attacked with great precision.
People are not ants, but the collectivists need them to become ants: programmable drones with no real sense of individuality, submissive to central authority. The simple realities of the human condition were therefore attacked and reclassified as aberrant.
The old civilizations the radicals loathe and wish to destroy - everything from traditional religion to the American constitutional republic - were built upon an understanding of humanity: the differences between men and women, the needs of - and the need for - children.
A great deal of culture, tradition, religious principle, and law was built upon that understanding of humanity. Systems that didn't acknowledge the human condition either didn't last very long, or devolved into savage tyrannies as people were forced to act in inhuman ways.
With the turn of the 21st Century, the Western world was subjected to an initially stealthy ideological assault that aims to redefine humanity itself, fulfilling the century-old dream of creating a New Soviet Man that will be more compatible with collectivist philosophy.
It all looks increasingly ridiculous to normal people as it becomes less stealthy and more domineering, but rest assured it is no joke. Much of this reprogramming has been directed at defenseless children in the clutches of collectivist ideologues. Generations have been molded.
It wasn't all just about deranged lunatics sinking their claws into children and reprogramming them to alter the definition of humanity. Social and economic forces were employed to adjust adults as well. Every aspect of traditional human relationships is under attack.
Individuality flows from identity. People stop valuing individual rights and sovereignty when they are no longer certain of their identity as human beings. They are no longer certain about anything when they're no longer certain what they ARE. They seek meaning from authority.
Destroying human identity by erasing the definitions of "man," "woman," and "child" wipes out the common understandings that can unite us. It breaks society into warring camps that don't understand each other, to the benefit of politicians who harvest power from strife.
Consider: one of the great universal bridges of understanding, the idea that brings people of different races and creeds together, is looking at each other and thinking: "He's a guy trying to take care of his family" or "She's a woman trying to raise her kids," JUST LIKE ME.
That's the antidote to tribalism and the beginning of great civilizations - our sense of common humanity. That humanity is under sustained, aggressive attack by people who believe order should be imposed from above, rather than civilization flowing up from family and friendship.
The sad thing is that so many people think erasing human identity will be liberating, freeing us from the shackles of biology. The opposite is true. There will be shackles everywhere. New Soviet Man will be many things, but he will not be independent or free. /end

The devil will always be in the details, but in theory it shouldn't be difficult to create regulations that would prevent Big Tech from quickly and arbitrarily banning users or suppressing content. The process of silencing users should be slow, transparent, and subject to appeal.
That's all most people really want - some assurance they won't be muzzled by partisan gangs or silenced by tech oligarchs. If the gangs and oligarchs doing this stuff leaned to the Right, no one would have any difficulty understanding these concerns or acting on them.
Of course, if the overlords of social media leaned Right, their platforms would have been effectively nationalized years ago - about 48 hours after they silenced the first prominent figure of the Left, especially if it was someone from a preferred minority group.

One of the great schisms in conservatism and GOP politics - a key difference between passive and active conservatism, peacetime vs. wartime - is whether or not the Left is credited with having good intentions. The Left, of course, never reciprocates this concession.
Unfortunately, the Left is dedicated to attacking the very moral and philosophical pillars of the American republic and Western civilization, and they utterly dominate culture and academia, so conceding good intentions is a zero-sum game.
This is why so many GOP politicians and conservative pundits are of little use in pitched political battle, or eagerly turn against other conservatives. Having conceded the good intentions of the Left, they have also tacitly agreed to question the intentions of their own side.

State media operations, including what most of American media has become, are the most pervasive danger to journalism. Nothing degrades real journalism and erodes public trust in media more than sycophantic propaganda ops that claim to be "news networks."
Press freedom orgs are rightly concerned about hardcore oppression - reporters thrown in jail by tyrants or murdered by mobs - but they underestimate the danger of state media. They have trouble understanding that journalists can be the biggest threat to journalism.
Politicized media has a powerful corrupting influence. There is less and less room for real journalism as politicized newsrooms eat up more of the information space. Agendas dominate all coverage and push aside reporting that doesn't fit the ruling party narratives.

Human labor is the most abundant and important capital America possesses. There are two ways to allocate that resource. One of them is capitalism. Everything else is slavery. Choose wisely.
The miracle of capitalism is that it allows individuals - every last person in a free society - to own capital and invest it for a profit. That's what you're doing when you freely accept employment. You make the most profitable investment of your capital that you can find.
Your employer hires you because they value your labor more than the money they pay you. They believe they can turn a profit on the money they invest to buy your labor. Both you and the employer are free to seek better investments if either is unhappy with their profits.

The vicious racist hatred toward Tim Scott from Democrats isn't exactly "hypocrisy," in the sense that they aren't acting contrary to their true principles. The Left has never for an instant thought racism was inherently wrong. Like everything else, it's a power dynamic to them.
After all, the Left is passionately dedicated to the idea that racial prejudice and discrimination are GOOD, provided the people subjected to prejudice, hatred, and discriminatory treatment are white or Asian. This isn't just a talking point - it's a core policy element.
"Racism" to Democrats is the result of a power and political calculation, not an absolute evil. Honestly, they've never really pretended otherwise. Hoodwinked voters just forget about it sometimes, or give institutionalized Dem racism a pass because they "mean well."

Loss of trust in government is an inevitable consequence of government growing huge and constantly insisting that all of its policy preferences are "emergencies" that require compulsory "unity."
Few Americans alive today can remember a time when their political class wasn't constantly screaming at them about "emergencies" and "crises" that supposedly justified discarding the restraints on government, and even dispensing with democracy. The Fierce Urgency of Now!
We lived in a perpetual state of emergency, a constant state of "war" against various social issues. The better things were, the louder our political and media class railed against our complacency and screamed at us to get up and DO SOMETHING RIGHT NOW.
