I’ve been fighting gender ideology for years. Since before the Jenner “woman of the year” magazine cover. For a long time many conservatives told me it was a sideshow, a fad, nothing to worry about. I said it would become the central cultural battlefield, and now it is.
Conservatives waited so long to engage on this issue that now we have an uphill fight. It’s not lost. It’s not a foregone conclusion. This is winnable but it will take a lot of focus and the kind of united front that I’m not sure we’re capable of. We better figure it out though.
Fighting this scourge means attacking it at its roots. We’re not just concerned about women’s sports or bathrooms or whatever. Gender ideology itself is the cancer at the core of this. We have to go after that, the very idea of it.

Agreed. Don’t like this at all. It’s already been done. DC is ready for it. Much more effective protest would be a strike at this point. Another convoy, especially to coincide with the State of the Union, just smells like a disaster with no clear end goal in mind.
What does a win look like here? I mean what exactly is the objective? The whole thing feels off. At best it’s a toothless rehash of what’s been done already. At best.
Also, most of the mandates in this country have already been lifted or defeated in court. Why do this now? Seems very weird to me.
1883 started out as a gritty western and devolved into a politically correct soap opera about an annoying teenage girl's love life and kindly Comanche warriors who save hapless white people from other more evil white people. Never seen a show fall off so quickly.
It's a western starring Sam Elliot so let's instead focus almost the entire story on the teenage girl, because that's what most western fans want to see. Great idea.
The ultimate jump the shark moment is when the girl and the heroic superhero Comanche warrior make out during a tornado and later the girl describes the storm that devastated her whole caravan as "beautiful"
A health magazine published a whole issue celebrating obesity and the resulting content is totally indistinguishable from satire. Just look at this. It’s incredible. Thread:
The job of a fitness instructor now is to be a “fat ally.” I guess the job of an oncologist is to be a “cancer ally.”
Nobody knows if CTE exists, or what it is if it does exist, or how it affects behavior if it does affect it at all, much less which athletes have it if any of them do, yet in spite of all of this you, a random person on Twitter, have diagnosed Antonio Brown with the condition. Ok
What I do know is that football used to be a hell of a lot more violent than it is today, and players used a lot less protection, and yet you didn't have guys pulling stunts like Antonio Brown
Took the kids to see Spider-Man. Expected it to be bad but it was worse than I thought. These movies have no stakes at all, not even a whiff of suspense or narrative tension. Every problem is solved with miraculous technology or magic or some other deus ex machina device.
[spoilers] A supervillain from a previous film can be turned good with a contraption that a kid whips together in a lab out of scrap metal in three minutes. A wizard can fly in to brainwash the world if that helps. Multiverses and time warps are utilized if the narrative requires
A superhero can stop a train with one hand in one scene but then be knocked unconscious with a simple punch to the head in the next. The rules are rewritten depending on what the writers need for each scene. It’s lazy and boring. Fun for kids but this is shit filmmaking, folks.
