  1. Yup. Things will seem to ease, but some will retain the authoritarian mind-set.

  4.  @CaliforniatoWestAfrica  Yup. I'm wired to be contrary. Most people are wired to just get along. You need people like me, but if most people aren't wired to "get along," I'm not sure what the world would be like. A bunch of cantankerous old men and women yelling "Get off my lawn!"

  5.  @h3lol  What was selfish was engaging in lovemaking without precautions with a man who isn't going to be there. Once you're pregnant, it's hard to argue that you're just being selfish by carrying the baby to term. The selfish act was engaging in the sex act without all those contingencies nailed down.

  6.  @CaliforniatoWestAfrica  Without my father in the picture, I would've run roughshod over my mother by or before age 12. Dad was far from perfect, but he didn't tolerate any BS. I remember how some of my peers would be out causing trouble or partying all hours on school nights, for instance. That was something that simply couldn't happen in our household without dire consequences. Some rare women can do it all, at great cost to themselves, trying to do more than any one person should have to do. But the women who end up single, with children, usually aren't those kinds of women. Bless you for overcoming your disadvantages. You can look at crime stats in a couple of different ways. While the vast majority of career criminals and/or people who spend their lives in poverty come from single-mother households, the flip side is that the vast majority raised by single mothers do, in fact, overcome it. It's the same for being raised by abusive fathers. You're more likely to be an abuser if you were raised by an abuser, but MOST abused children do NOT repeat the mistakes of their fathers.

  7. Ben Affleck: "We are endowed by our Founding Fathers with inalienable rights." What a dipstick. Making Ben Affleck look stupid in a debate is just a matter of letting him speak.

  9. The only thing that really changed on The View is the establishment narratives and how the establishment takes down opposing views, now, as opposed to 20 years ago. Now, it's far more authoritarian, and being loud and acting upset is considered legitimate argumentation.

  15.  @coanwilliams  Oh I do. It's a subject RICH with irony. "You're obviously a cult, because my cult says so." But Christianity's a cult with millions of followers and it generally has the right idea on most things, except the whole "give me money so you can live forever" grift. I oppose CRT on purely rational grounds, and I kind of get a twinge when Christians make faith-based arguments that mean NOTHING to anybody undecided or opposed. I get a twinge when the people leading the charge against globalism are patriotic nationalists. I see globalism as the natural extension of toxic nationalism. I'm a localist, and beyond THAT I'm a family-ist. War makes for strange bedfellows. This info war we're in is no different. The thing I'll say for the Christians is that they are generally tolerant of other views and some of our best scientists are Christians. It's not ENTIRELY irrational to have faith in God, especially if you're at all familiar with Pascal's Wager. But I agree 100% that "God said" is not an argument.

  16.  @sv3931  Yes. Critical Race 'Theory' gives the entire project more credibility than it deserves. It doesn't hold up to logical or evidentiary scrutiny. At best, it's "theory" in the colloquial meaning of the term, because it is not at all substantiated except by a club of mutual back-patters who find validation by validating each others' bullshit claims. What makes it DANGEROUS is it obtains a false authority because those mutual back-patters have lots of letters after their names. A diploma from the bottom of a Cracker-Jack box has as much standing in MY mind as ANY degree ending in the word "Studies."

  18. This is the least of Whoopi's sins. It's like Andrew Cuomo being taken out by sexual harassment allegations, when his other crimes are much worse. Whoopi's a fountain of ignorance and pro-establishment propaganda, masquerading as a champion of the people. The View is vomitable.

  19.  @lxLanarchyxl  Excellent point(s) about fentanyl making legalization/decriminalization even more logical next step. Safe doses. Tax $$$ to support clinics and help whoever's ready for help, etc.

  20. Did it occur to you that you're all wrapped up inside a sunk-cost fallacy? Maybe we should question the original idea of (re-)creating the state of Israel in 1948, when we were all full of ourselves, drunk with power, with the British full of plans for re-drawing the map of the Middle East one more time. WWII saw an extension of British colonialism by other (U.S.) means. I think our leaders got all full of themselves and, guided by the British, thought they were playing the Great Game against the USSR and China, when the plain fact is, their systems just can't keep up if we make them play by the rules and don't let them get a hold of our intellectual properties. We'll always have a lead. Free people just create a lot more and invent a lot more. Instead, we've grown our government and created something very akin to the totalitarian regimes our leaders claim to oppose, which is their reason for acting like Naxis at home, looking for ways to censor speech and control the flow of information, using external and internal threats as the excuse to go after people with dissenting opinions, who speak against their policies. We're basically dragging ourselves down to Stalin's level. People more and more afraid and more and more distrusting of people on "the other side" of the aisle from them, with one side always figuring that the way to win is to seize control of government and use government to suppress the opposition. I think we're seeing that, now, but we're talking about who committed the worst atrocity or made the most outrageous statement. Rather than dwell on the wrong in others, spend more time on the underlying truths.

  21. Tapper and anyone else on his or any other Trump-Deranged networks could have seen through the hoax with a MINIMUM of research and thought. They're all either incompetent or just flat-out liars. Either way, those networks are totally discredited and have ZERO credibility.

  22.  @bradleysmith2021  No. "Fraud" is anything true that hurts the Democrat narrative. "Truth" is anything that supports the Democrat narrative.

  23. If MSM showed BLM riots every night in 2020, their sheeple would've been desensitized to protests gone bad and Jan 6th would've been just another "mostly peaceful" protest. But they were Trump supporters, so "Insurrection!" after 4 straight years of insurrection from within and without the federal government.

  29.  @AndyGrahamProductions  He'd say "But the science changed! We didn't KNOW!" And of course, THAT is BS, because the establishment de-platformed, smeared and threatened with loss of license, which NGT would have known, if he questioned authority and did his own research. Instead, he added his voice and his platform to th establishment's, and helped spread the lie and ridicule those with more discernment. He should be asked what he thinks of the Great Barrington Declaration, and why he opposes it.

  30. Scapegoating Biden is their long game. When voters revolt in 2024, the DNC will have all its networks proclaiming "It was Joe's fault! We weren't for any of that stuff (that we rammed down your throat)."

  31. Fascism was modeled in part on company towns. If you haven't read "The Arms of Krupp," then you're historically illiterate, in my opinion.

  32. The people buying into their nonsense are generally good, conscientious people, who only have an hour or a half-hour a day that they give to the news, and they watch the news that is most easily obtainable, which is corporate/government news on the legacy networks. I wish they drilled deeper, but they're otherwise leading more balanced lives than geeks like me, who spend far too much time digging and listening to all points of view.

  33. The welfare state is not liberal. Government-run health is not liberal. Government regulation of speech is not liberal. Government-run education is not liberal. These are all top-down, authoritarian enterprises, systems of CONTROL implemented by fascists and pre-fascists in Germany in the 19th Century. It's all just a way of securing unquestioning loyalty from people whose ability to think and ask questions are systematically eroded by government taking responsibility for individuals' well-being, which ALWAYS means giving the state authority over every aspect of your life. True liberals understand that limited government is the key to liberty, prosperity, an even playing field, and equal opportunity. To be a true liberal, you will be demonized as a right-wing, racist white supremacist. And homophobic, transphobic and misogynistic.

  36. You should do a piece on the "Fairness Doctrine" (fairness myth) in media, since they were first getting radio going. From Day 1, the establishment has had its hooks in the mainstream media. But there has never been an outlet without an axe to grind. It's a beautiful thing.

  37. She just shrugs off people's suffering. And I bet on any given day, she'll claim to be super-empathetic and lecture YOU about your lack of emotional intelligence. I haven't seen the war on the middle class so brutally executed since stagflation of the '70s and the enormous growth in entitlements that accompanied it. Now, half of the country are directly dependent on the government for their basic needs, work for the government distributing entitlements, or regulating everything under the sun, or working for an institution that does government's slightest bidding. We're damn near as fascist as Hitler's Germany, making all the same economically disastrous central-planning blunders, without even admitting our government is trying to centrally plan EVERYthing. It's disheartening. We've known how this plays out since Otto Von Bismarck socialized medicine in Germany in the 19th Century (December 1884). If people knew their history, they would be trying to wean us off Medicare and Medicaid. Nice idea. Not the way to help people. Government only knows one way to administer anything, which anyone who THINKS will agree is POORLY.

  41. I think Christians have a built-in armor against competing religions. They sense the wrongness and the ideology's faith-based structure, because they are immersed in a competing faith-based structure. The problem I see with Christians as allies in this secular debate is "God said" is not a winning argument for anyone outside THEIR religion. The appeal to Biblical authority is identical to the appeal to academic authority. Once the "church leaders" agree that x, y and z are canon, they can smugly refer to the academic literature, even though it is clear to many that critical race theory and intersectionality are faith-based at their roots. It is clear that a broken system of peer review has allowed a lot of unsupportable claims to be canon.

  42. As many are pointing out, below, we're not really "conservative" so much as we're libertarians or classical liberals. Technically, "conservative" in the political sense is that you defend the established order and tradition. That's not what we are. We're not reactionary, either, because we're not interested in "going back to an idealized past." "Left versus right" is misleading as hell. It's a totally false dichotomy. It's more of a state-versus-individual dichotomy, and striking the proper balance between the two. We need SOME government, but we clearly have far too MUCH government, right now, and far too little diversity of thought permitted in the public square, in order to preserve an establishment that's just as out-of-touch, NOW, as the regressive right of the 1960s, and even more censorious and intolerant.

  48. "Moderate" liberals are what brought us to this point, where institutions of government wield far too much power. The predictable occupation of top spots by ideologues, power-trippers and corrupt/corruptible people is why we're being oppressed by government institutions at darn near every turn. The proper attitude toward government is "They fix nothing and break everything." It's bad enough when it's restricted to its constitutionally delineated role. But at least then, there's less for the people to keep track of, Congress to oversee, and much harder to hide the pay-to-play schemes that crop up in EVERY arena in which the federal government weighs in. I hope Bill's right about "big-corporate" failing. When a nation slides into socialism/fascism, things have usually gone too far for recovery by the time the "private-public partnerships" reveal the full measure of their toxicity and turn the corporations into powerless pawns of the state. So far, it's been of mutual benefit. Money to politicians --> rules that favor big over small. But due partly to the Internet and partly to traditional values that STILL permeate the vast majority of a hard-working populace, the USA has a good chance of righting the ship. But I'm not sure there's any hope for "social democracies" of Europe.

  49. So the creation (and mis-use) of "hate speech" statutes is actually a double-edged sword for the character assassins, who fling hate-speech allegations at all who disagree with them. Interesting. Love this guy.
