WaPo runs an editorial referencing “pelvic theology” & “sins below the waist.”

For years, I was sympathetic to the idea that some in the church were too focused on sexual sins.

It’s obvious now that they were more right than wrong.

I supported legalized gay marriage. The question, “How does my gay marriage affect you?,” is difficult to answer. Theoretically, it shouldn’t.

But was that true?

For many “normal” gay folks - people like Guy Benson, for example - the answer is yes. His wedding impacts me zero.

A few quick thoughts / notes on today’s landmark Supreme Court decision that effectively ends race preferences in government institutions. 🧵

First, despite gnashing of teeth on the left, this decision makes some statements that are very difficult to argue against.



This long excerpt demonstrates how a small number of unelected judges took it upon themselves (in Bakke and Grutter) to decide that the 14th Amendment could be ignored, at least for a period of time.

Today, another small group of unelected judges decided that time had ended.

People (like me) who support GOP candidates other than Trump need to take the time to try to understand Trump voters.

If you just dismiss them as dumb or uninformed or worse, you are missing out on understanding not only a significant part of the GOP but of the country as well. Why is it when you drive through rural America, even deep into Biden’s term, you see flags for a rich Manhattan a-hole?

Why would country folk like him?

If you mindlessly reply “racism,” I’ll mute you. Don’t be that person.

Look at this activism! 46 — count them — 46 yard signs placed.

This movement is striking terror into the hearts of the, err, non movants.

CU-Boulder instructs students to refer to everyone by made up “pronouns” unless they tell you otherwise.

This is beyond parody.

Ron DeSantis & the FL legislature are about to notch a final win over Disney in the Reedy Creek kerfuffle, & the left are furious.

They aren’t furious that Disney is reaping the crop of its political activities. They’re furious Disney lost the fight. 1x Starting point for this discussion begins with remembering who/what Disney is: one of the wealthiest, most powerful & influential companies in the world. (Link is to a chart of what The Mouse owns.) 2x

It isn’t hard to understand why the spontaneous & unorganized Bud Light boycott is working.

First, beer companies traditionally aren’t woke. Bud Light stood out alone.

When Nike does something woke, what are you going to do? But Adidas? They’re all woke. Second, there are ready substitutes.

Miller Lite & Coors Light are functional equivalents of Bud Light. Who cares?

Flashback to a trans ideology fight I reported on in 2016. Critically important lesson can be learned from this.

Background: An activist school board in a reddish city (Fort Worth) tried to sneak radical trans ideology into school bathroom policy.

politicalsock.wordpress.com/2016/05/11/int… It’s what you would expect. Kids were to be able to use the bathrooms, locker rooms & showers they IDENTIFIED with as opposed to their biological sex. At the time, there were perhaps 3 students in the entire district who allegedly “identified” as trans.

The divide Tom sees here is the fruit of the poison tree of identity politics.

How on earth does the president’s press secretary say “our hearts go out to the trans community, they’ve been under attack” when the bodies of 6 people murdered by a trans person aren’t yet cold? 1x

Can she hear herself?

How does the president joke about the hate crime aspect? How does he not react with empathy for the people targeted?

It’s because their first INSTINCT is now tribal. The shooter was a member of the correct identity group. They know what team they’re on. 2x

Every Democrat votes AGAINST the Parents’ Bill of Rights legislation, and the Senate won’t even give it a vote.

All this bill would do is give parents the right to know what’s going on at their kids’ schools.

So why is that dangerous to Dems?

“They want to ban books, they want to bully the LGBTQ+ community [and] they want to bring guns into classrooms, kindergarten and above," House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries.

I’ve noticed that gay women don’t feel the need to dress up like Chippendale men and dance for children.

Somehow it’s only men. And by somehow I mean of course it’s only men.

To understand just how batsh*t bonkers crazy the Biden administration is to INSIST that ELEMENTARY KIDS be taught gender ideology, you should know that as recently as 2019, the World Health Organization defined gender identity disorder as MENTAL ILLNESS.

cbsnews.com/news/world-hea…

For more context, the DSM-IV also considered Gender Identity Disorder to be a mental illness.

America is practically begging for someone to "flip the table" - an analogy.

On a spring break a number of years ago, some college kids set up a card table in the surf to play a drinking game.

It started out fun, then got weird, then got out of hand. 1x As the crowd around the table grew & the partying escalated, guys started encouraging girls to take off their tops. A few of the girls did, to the delight of the drunken instigators. 2x

THE SCHOOL DISTRICT THAT DEFIED THE COVID ALARMISTS (and did just fine) 🧵🧵

Peaster, TX is a rural suburb of Fort Worth - about 40 miles NW of DFW.

In the fall of 2020, the "rubes" at tiny, podunk Peaster ISD decided to defy covid fearmongering related to schools. 1x District leaders looked at the data & recognized what much of the world (outside of US teachers' unions) agree on today: schools were not significant vectors of covid spread.

So, Peaster ISD reopened in the fall of 2020 - with no mask requirements. 2x

The late, great Walter E. Williams explains inflation. 🧵Thread🧵

Milton Friedman says, “[I]nflation is always and everywhere a monetary phenomenon, in the sense that it cannot occur without a more rapid increase in the quantity of money than in output.” 1 Increases in money supply are what constitute inflation, and a general rise in prices is the symptom. 2

"Our patience is wearing thin."???

I'm fully vaxxed since April. Holy hell, he makes me want to go back in time and not take it. "Our patience is wearing thin" is like literally a crappy Hollywood villain line.

Who the F thought it would be a good idea for Biden to drop that out there?

This particular quote alone is stunning.

abcnews.go.com/Politics/full-… First, Biden retreats (again) to his dead son Beau. This is his first refuge anytime someone questions him about duty or honor.

But he does so incoherently.

He says Beau “spent 6 months in Kosovo.” He did, after the war there had ended. He trained prosecutors. 2/6

My guess is New Yorkers are so soft, so eager to comply with the instructions of Bill DeBlasio, there will be barely a peep from them.

Maybe some NYers have natural immunity. Or maybe a bad reaction to a prior vaccine. Maybe they’re young & healthy and wish to see long term study results of the vaccines. Maybe they just don’t like putting chemicals in their bodies & are willing to take the risk.

Doesn’t matter.
