I asked for this for Christmas in fourth grade because the original hardcover looked very luxe. This was pre-Internet so the content of it wasn't widely known and The Amber Spyglass hadn't come out yet, which is where the big reveal is. Nonetheless I remember it giving me a profound sense of unease and didn't finish it I read them all later when the (not good) first attempt at a movie came out and was surprised to find that something I'd owned and not thought much about years earlier had become known for a final volume about killing God, gay angels, and basically all manner of satanically inverted Biblical tropes promoting 2000s militant atheism

The worst Twit events of this year are Radfem Hitler (now "RFH") normalizing being a strident man-hating feminist libtard for e-girls/simps and Normie McDonald creating an equally disgusting persona scolding men and saying it's unmasculine to not defer to girlboss libtards Saying this because these accounts have a distinctly poisonous viral effect on straight people that can be seen everywhere.

Exasperated that I must wade into this but there's nothing wrong with "blackface," "blackface" is not a magical incantation, Judy Garland was not coerced into "blackface" with amphetamines, you all are so myopically stuck in this time of bugs and idiots You all are so stuck in Bug-Time you buy into the hypothesis that "blackface" is a magical incantation only to be explained by "Hollywood Child Predation," it was a liberating aspect of performance now stuck with a Middle Ages stigma of dark magic, see beyond your own time

Reading Atlas Shrugged in 2023 America is an almost psychologically torturous act if you have the calling to understand and internalize its message rather than shove it somewhere in order not to think about it. Prior generations had the luxury of enjoying it as a dystopian… twitter.com/i/web/status/1… Irony and obfuscation--as opposed to genuine humor, which relies upon plainspoken truth to work--are important tools of the authoritarian state. Any plainspoken message can be swiftly and disingenuously framed as ludicrous or embarrassing by the facile tongue of the credentialed… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
