Rare disagree. Crowdsourcing's already been ahead of the curve on menstrual irregularities and myocarditis/heart attacks stemming from the vax, and the jury's still out on some other issues

If anything the IDW is just not good at pattern-matching. That's why they're in the IDW
"Smart" skepticism of the vax is a lot harder when science has been repurposed to something other than science. Even after science has finally caught up to the myocarditis problems in young men/boys, it's still pushing this. Uh okay, thanks CDC and WHO
Crowdsourcing is a mess and full of bias, so the frequency that it's been ahead of the curve despite these problems is pretty big

It's bad science, but so is Science!. It can at the very least be used to triangulate/get things on your radar to moderate risk
I personally think Weinstein has led himself to distort the "situation on the ground," but he's already been proven completely correct that side effects have been underreported, and that's just the most obvious and short-term ones—and those have already been brought to light.
So we've been put in a situation where Weinstein, while likely wrong to degree, is still more right in some critical ways than WHO/CDC

Yeah, it blows trying to have to navigate that. But that's where we're at—and in basically every dimension of life lol
Btw, my stance isn't extremist at all, I think the benefits well outweigh the risks if you're at any real risk of the virus. I'm happy my parents got vaxed. Across the whole population, it looks like a very big net good
But there is definitely a risk/reward curve, and I feel like it inflects at a certain point when you're young and healthy enough.

The exact point where that happens is unknown, though. And Science! alone doesn't seem eager to figure that out for us. We're on our own.

CRT is best understood as a kind of cordyceps on the body of liberalism, a foreign fungus that redirects the interests of the liberal body ("human flourishing") to that of the fungus (progressivism, equity, the human fungus-patch: i.e. the gray goo of the leftist end-goal)
Any form of conservatism that recognizes this is a quantum leap forward akin to the monkeys finding the monolith

But liberals who want to preserve themselves need to understand why they're uniquely vulnerable to this cordyceps—and then engineer a penicillin against it
This is extremely difficult for liberalism to pull off, since it's at root a part of the left, and finds the process of adopting the rightist penicillin as painful as the sculptor who attempts to carve himself from out of his own stone

Watching ALONE, a show about men isolated in the wilderness, makes me think about HATCHET, a story I was just enthralled by as a kid

Which makes me think about how utterly alien, and hostile, this new ideology is to what it's actually like to be a young boy
I have a bad memory, but I can still remember with incredible clarity how the boy had to swim back down into the lake and look at the fish-eaten corpse of that dead pilot in order to bring back what he needed to survive

I'm sure "My Daddies" will resonate just as strongly though
I spent a great deal of my childhood wandering around in the woods by myself, and if I have boys of my own, I want to give them the same.

I'm going to have to find them books like HATCHET, rather than any of these alien texts, that are all written to make their lives worse.

I could be stupid but it feels like progs are on the defensive about CRT in schools right now. You can almost hear the 900-person Zoom calls spinning up in the background to discuss the ways they need to reengineer the propaganda to keep pushing it forward.
Always safest to bet on cynicism, but if the right has finally mustered the guts to fight the culture war like a real war, the odds of the Great Stalemate (two systems, one country) are going to jump by a lot
A Great Stalemate is one of the only ways I see out of this, because my basic operating theory is that neoliberalism has cut out its own guts that would be necessary to use force against states that just say "No—and what are you going to do about it?"

Look, if this is the American Spanish Civil War, you are all on the side of the Nationalists, you idiots. Turn the firing squads on each other *after* you've defeated the commies, not while you're in the middle of it, you colossal jokes, *that's* when you get to settle grievances
Yes of course if you're a true lib NRx or modern "fascists" (lol) are your enemies

All of your territory is occupied by progressives, meanwhile you keep shooting at each other to slay any "true liberalism," yielding it all to the real enemy. Imagine being this stupid
These people are so owned by progressivism they would rather cede all ground to it on the mere *chance* that siding against the real enemy results in a Peron, Franco, Pinochet, or even Trump

Okay. Enjoy progressive rule, idiots. It's what you deserve

Believing that freedom isn't a social construct and is in fact the natural state of man is both a historically insane position to take and why liberalism can't defend its freedoms from leftist takeover
Freedom, if that's the goal, can only be maintained when you *understand* that it's a social construct. It doesn't just spring out of nowhere

To keep it, you either have to construct a strong culture of honor, or an entire framework of law dedicated to protecting it
Despite some of their loftier propaganda, the Founding Fathers obviously didn't believe that freedom was "natural."

Why in the world would they need to construct the Constitution unless freedom is in fact a social construct?

If Hannity started ranting "Ram evolves horns not through accidents of 'selection,' only learning to use them after they exist—but because he WILLS them into being! The spirit CREATES the horns that exert themselves on the world!" his weekly ratings would rival the Super Bowl
If any figure did adopt these insights, there would be nothing to directly point to—there are no specific policies that automatically come from it, or even a clearly recognizable ideology

The only difference shown would be in a new sternness of character
NRx thinking, for instance, is very near and dear to me, it can make sense of so many things that otherwise don't, and can easily produce insights and direct policies that would create order from disorder

But it lacks a critical, you could say a "vital," aspect to it
