Odd that righties are tarred as censors when lefties are far worse. Eg 1922-1939, Mussolini jailed ~3,000 for speech crimes; Wilson jailed ~1,000 in just 1917-1919. Nazis burned ~25,000 (often bad) books pre-WWII, whereas left-wing revolutions burned way more & better ones. Etc…
The Nazis & even the Fascists obviously became far more censorious during war than they had been during peace, but the French, Soviet, & Chinese book-burnings during their internal revolutions were orders of magnitude larger & focused on burning far more valuable books. Many such
I think Mussolini was actually pretty cool, & the lies about him are incredibly unfair, but I’m no fan of the Nazis. & yet it’s undeniable that a left-wing revolution often means mass gulags, mass brainwashing, mass famines, mass purges, etc, while a RW one often just means junta

Good old post from @curtis_yarvin on the viral Compact Mag essay: the culture industry’s a MLM federal jobs program designed to produce people capable of noticing & replicating & teaching the preferred narrative, bc this comes with status benefits, & it’s what allows for capture-
@curtis_yarvin The first creative writing program was only created in 1936—at Iowa, still the top of the pyramid & origin of every official fad. By 1980 there were over 250 in the US; now ~500. As writing becomes this kind of commissariat, ofc it’s vulnerable to dysfunctional campaigns & purges
@curtis_yarvin Wokeness is worst in academia, journalism, publishing, etc—the culture industry—bc they all fit the same patterns Yarv noticed about MFAs: they’ve been “generously” institutionalized into MLM jobs programs which also teach laity how to “appreciate” their officially valid “craft.”
In 1974 Congress was upset about Nixon having refused to spend appropriated money on programs he disliked, so they banned this discretion in a law that also formalized all the appropriations bills (usually 11-13 per year) into one standardized process. Huge constitutional change:
There’d only ever been one “omnibus” bill before this in our nation’s whole history (1950, as an efficiency experiment that nobody found interesting or fruitful then). The 2nd was in 1986. From 2012 to 2024, 147 of 149 budget bills were passed in omnibus form. Huge transformation
Those two exceptions were so minor they further prove the rule: in 2015 DHS was funded separately bc the rest of the budget could be agreed on before funding disputes about Obama’s DACA/DAPA were settled; & in 2017 VA/MilCon got funded before the rest of the budget bc bipartisan.
Odd! Not sure what one could possibly make of this! Very surprising to anyone who’s ever interacted with male, female, & mixed groups! We must fund extra research ASAP to figure out what combination of carrots for women & sticks for men can help women come out as equally liberal!
As teen was taught female orgasms require complex rube goldberg machinations. It’s actually quite simple, but getting any group which defers to its female members to eg actually consider any factual or logical assertion instead of status quo-ing requires comical game foreplay etc
Feminized groups may defer to judging propositional claims by whether they confirm ingroup status, & assuming that interlocutors are actually just asking for entry, but if you dance well & bring flowers & grovel for the hotties & pity their ugly friends… then they can be liberal
He notes that starting around 1965, US college students began throwing shrill fits at their admins in ways that their admins began coddling instead of disciplining. He notes that this began at UC Berkeley (which “boast[ed] more women students than any other US coed institution”).
The alum page on “150 years of women at Berkeley” notes that women were prominent in all these campaigns (& for once they’re not just making them up as “hidden figures”). 1960s was when all the “in loco parentis” rules evaporated—no more female curfews, bans on mixed sleepovers…
Note that the graph is about graduations, so enrollments feminize ~4 years earlier (ie incoming students surpass the ~1940 feminization peak in just about exactly 1965). Note also that teen guys going off to uni act v differently if they can sleep over with girls w/out expulsions
In 2023, SCOTUS considered whether independent artists offering their services for hire must agree to produce “acceptable” art for gay marriages upon request, bc of civil rights laws. All 3 libs voted for subordinating the 1st amendment to “non-discrimination” laws. They hate 1A.
If Hillary had won, SCOTUS would’ve upheld this literally incredible (as in almost nobody believes me when I tell them about it) assault on free speech, & gone farther. The key reason we still have any semblance of free speech rights is thanks to Donald Trump. Crush the left now!
Free speech caselaw is one of the most misunderstood pillars of mainstream propaganda. Citizens United is hated for giving RW nonprofits the rights to produce & screen political movies. Workplaces can’t allow un-PC jokes under CRA. But strip clubs etc are now protected from regs!
Men are more naturally monogamous bc we wanna just have our home life settled so we can use it as foundation for external pursuits. Women are the ones always working on their home life, introducing new projects to it, etc. If she’s in love, that means making his home better—but…
Polygamy’s only more common than polyandry bc a) it’s much more stable, & b) so many women so underhandedly pursue the few top men that sometimes they can’t focus enough to reject these additional distractions. Men who have their shit together never say “if only I had more wives”
Women’s desire is much more about being desired by someone desirable. ie romance is overwhelmingly about calling forth male effort (yes, women put in underhanded effort to call this forth but they want it to look like he’s just naturally choosing to sweep them off their feet etc)
