  1. https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/russia-opens-criminal-case-against-icc-judges-prosecutor-over-putin-arrest-2023-03-20/ https://www.newsweek.com/russia-medvedev-icc-hypersonic-missile-putin-arrest-warrant-1788805 To me it looks like petty tit for tat. My question is, what were these warrants out for Putin going to achieve anyways? I think it makes the ICC look like a complete joke that even Russia doesn’t recognize its jurisdiction. What is the point of the ICC when its jurisdiction isn’t even recognized? This is a lot like the Edward Snowden case with countless warrants and charges against him. In reality, he wipes himself with these warrants and charges after using the restroom. Everyone knows a nuclear war has no winners. Everyone is just licking their wounds at this point.
  2. I did hear something of the underground missile system known as the “nuclear sponge”. In any case, if we are so confident Russia wouldn’t win in a nuclear war, then there should be no hesitation imposing a no-fly zone in Ukraine. These U.S. generals wouldn’t be saying that “there are no winners in a nuclear war” on TV. If the West was so confident it could win, then it wouldn’t be squandering so much in this conflict at Ukraine’s expense. I could just imagine Russian officials laughing at the ICC’s arrest warrants. “Dimitri! Open up case against the ICC and pour me another shot of vodka!” And regarding putting pressure on China, the U.S. media was having a mental breakdown over potential Chinese aid to Russia via weapons. What’s the U.S. going to do? Withdraw its McDonalds and Subways from China as well? Saying there’s only 8 hypersonic missiles in Russia doesn’t sound like a secret the CIA would keep nor would the U.S. government tell us exactly what its defense is comprised of. And even if a select individuals know, you can be sure they swore an oath to not divulge such information to the general public.
  3. Russia supposedly has hypersonic missiles along with China, something the U.S. is behind in. Even though Russian military is a joke, the West has to be careful about their involvement in Ukraine or it will go from proxy war to hot war which is why many western countries are reluctant on what sort of aid to send to Ukraine. The U.S. has said before that it’s primary defense method against nuclear attacks is deterrence, meaning that we are only going to fire back what we’ve got as we’re getting leveled by other’s nuclear missiles. I wouldn’t trust a single thing the U.S. or Russia says either. They’re both superpowers looking to preserve themselves, so propaganda is at the forefront of both.
  4. The Constitution lists only three qualifications for the Presidency: the President must be at least 35 years of age, be a natural born citizen, and must have lived in the United States for at least 14 years. You can’t have many jobs as a felon, but you can be the president. We’re at the point where voting for the candidate in prison is the correct candidate to vote for because “those in prison are wrongfully found guilty, and those not in prison are yet to be held accountable.” That’s going to be the new logic going into 2024. Passing executive orders like:

  6. Although not all LGBT people are pedophiles, there has been a case with a pedophile drag queen back in 2019. LGBT, like priests, are not immune to having pedophilic tendencies: https://www.khou.com/article/news/local/houston-public-library-admits-registered-child-sex-offender-participated-in-drag-queen-storytime/285-becf3a0d-56c5-4f3c-96df-add07bbd002a https://www.chron.com/news/houston-texas/houston/article/Library-apologizes-for-letting-registered-sex-13693986.php And even if there’s no pedophilia going on, there’s still a lot of sexualization.

  7. It is not fascism to protect children. Under gender-affirming care, puberty blocking drugs such as Lupron are being prescribed to kids-the same drugs used to chemically castrate pedophiles. Children aren’t fully mentally developed (according to science) to decide whether chopping off their genitals or chemically altering their hormones is right for them.
  8. They’ve become more skeptical of Christianity and less skeptical of other thing as such as scientism. I find it a red flag when someone or a group becomes more skeptical of something because it’s usually accompanied by naïveté in another area.
  9. It’s not so much LGBT people as it is LGBT propaganda. Brow beating people into LGBT acceptance is going to make them less accepting. Going after the children is also a no go for me.
  10. It is often assumed that the right is driven by a bunch of Christofascists yet the left also has its own religion of moral superiority which they say is backed by science. However, their version of science isn’t really science-it’s scientism. They don’t admit that science is merely provisional, nor are they willing to question science much which ironically is anti-science. Since leftism is godless but has all the tenets of a religion, I find it to be much more dangerous because on paper who wants to be against unity, peace, and love? The left usually strawmans this regarding conservatives as being against all these things but that is simply not true. I have asked many conservatives if they stand for unity and inclusiveness and the main answer I was getting was: yes as long as it’s not a fake or forced type of unity. The majority of atheists are also liberal and one of their main arguments is how religion is responsible for so many deaths. I would like to mention that communism is responsible for even more deaths than the crusades, and inquisitions combined. There’s also studies which found that conservative brains are actually not more fearful than liberal ones: https://www.livescience.com/conservatives-not-more-fearful-than-liberals.html It is also generally accepted around here that conservatives are lower on the spiral dynamics model or lower consciousness which is a misconception. Leo stated that the two parties are asymmetrical with conservatives being less developed, this is also a misconception. On the surface it looks like that is the case, but one thing that’s not brought into question is the capacity to fake such higher development. Time and time again the left has been called out for virtue signaling, it’s a front that is put up to deceive people more easily. Are conservatives more simplistic? I’d say so, but that does not make them more dumb. Leonardo Davinci once said, “Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.”
  11. I’ve seen some social experiments where someone would walk onto a college campus or go to a highly liberal area dressed up as if they’re from a different culture and they would get shunned as well as assaulted by leftists. They then tried asking people of those actual cultures while wearing the attire if they found it offensive and instead they found it flattering. After all, imitation is said to be the ultimate form of flattery. How can a leftist know better than a particular race or culture when it comes to racism and cultural appropriation? I feel as if it’s condescending to tell people how oppressed they are when they haven’t been in their shoes. This reminds me more of a fundamentalist religion than anything looking to proselytize individuals who are receptive enough. Thoughts?
  12. Isn’t LGBT also a loud minority? If so, then how come they don’t get written off as simply being a loud minority? Hell, one could also say that black people are a loud minority. I listened to a transwoman speak about detransitioners and she was saying that they’re just a loud minority. And then I realized that she was also a loud minority because how many people out there are trans?
  13. What would you say about the other Indians/minorities who don’t feel ostracized? Those are the ones that typically vote republican. Are they all just kissing the white man’s boots? I’m curious what Vivek Ramaswamy’s views are regarding being Indian and ostracized in the U.S. https://www.thehindu.com/news/international/indian-american-republican-vivek-ramaswamy-considers-2024-presidential-bid/article66512561.ece/amp/
  14. Sure it’s a nuanced subject but it would take a novel to address those nuances. Here I’m being simplistic for the purpose of getting to the point. I guess it just boils down to how they approach minorities about their oppression. If they do it in a way where it only makes them hate white people more, then I don’t condone that.
  15. But considering those black people and other minorities of the like to be “ignorant” is condescending just like you said. They didn’t ask for anyone to get offended for them, instead minorities are just getting used for a political party’s gain. It deems black conservatives as people who can’t think for themselves. Maybe it just so happens that anyone from a minority group who claims they don’t feel oppressed are just thinking for themselves? It’s as if these academics hiding in their ivory towers can come up with any new concept and people will buy into it because of the fallacy appealing to authority.
  16. Do you think black people would react positively if you told them “I’m just being overprotective of you because it’s my duty to protect the weak”? No matter what you might say about these social experiments, I think we can all agree that “cultural appropriation” was a concept born out of privileged academic leftists. I find it ironic that all these white people are telling other groups and races how inferior they are while at the same time trying to make it seem as if they stand up for them. It’s as if, “Who asked you to get offended for me?”
  17. Somethin_else, there is only one good thing about Tate: preventing cuckholding. I think it’s easier to tone down masculinity than to build it up. The amount of damage that cuckholding does is far worse. It takes strong men to be able to lead and do something about misogyny. However a man who is open to allowing a train ran on his wife is not only the epitome of lack of integrity, but totally impotent when it comes to standing up for anything. They propagate degenerative behavior in women by affirming that it is ok for them to objectify themselves for money. This ends up hurting their self-esteem just as much of not more than those who are misogynistic. Those who write off cuckholding as a fetish is the same as writing off physical abuse as a fetish imo. These people take “open mindedness” to a level where their brains fall out.
  18. I am shedding light on different blind spots concerning leftism and conservatives. The left is typically against fundamentalist religion (I am too), but a religion can take many different forms without necessarily having a god.
  19. This may bother some folks in here but I had to post this given what I’ve been coming across reading. Everyone knows how offensive, racist, and discriminatory the stereotype of the black male is and yet somehow that same logic fails to be applied to white males. It’s like a Christian approaching Islam like an atheist would, but failing to apply the same reasoning to their own religion. We all know not all straight white males are bigoted or racist, in fact many of them have contributed to fighting racial injustice. Guilt-tripping white kids for example isn’t going to make them want to fight for racial injustice, but instead destroy their self esteem. Sitting there assuming that all white males have it handed to them is disingenuous given the amount of white males who are homeless/also locked up in prison. It’s important to have a big picture view when going after a particular race or gender and as common sense as this is, it’s equally just as uncommon sense. Victimhood exists, no one is denying the oppression and inequality that persists today however, all of that comes with a huge -but-. There’s also a limit to it just like there’s a limit to the aggressors. These two tend to have a yin-yang relationship where one eventually becomes the other and the cycle continues. Think classic example of guy or girl getting their heart broke and then doing it to others. Being the victim is not a free pass to being the aggressor.
  20. Tony Timpa a white guy, died the same way as George Floyd. Police was laughing at him being passed out while he wasn’t breathing, you can watch the camera footage on YT. No one batted an eye for him. There’s videos of black protestors requesting for white people walking by to literally kiss their boots such as this one: This same video actually disgusts many black people I’ve showed it to. You can easily see how these protestors don’t actually care about equality-they care about subjugating whites.
  21. You could look at it two ways. The first is how you’re looking at it where you’re comparing one evil to a greater evil. The second way to look at it is as either right or wrong. When you look at it as right or wrong, then neither one of them is right and they’re both wrong. It just comes back to bite those in the ass fighting for injustice when they become the very thing they’re opposed against. I think that aggressors of any kind are generally misunderstood when they get accused of victim blaming because many times they’re blaming the victim because they are no longer being the victim. You lose your victim card the moment you sniff out or provoke situations in order to masquerade as “standing up for yourself”. There’s a difference between standing up for one self vs. doing it in bad faith. Saying the victim is always right is like saying the customer is always right-they’re not. Instead, victims are only -generally- right. Just like the left preaches nuance and says that women -generally- have a womb instead of saying that only women have wombs, the same nuanced thinking applies to victimization. That too is not as cut and dry as conservatives make women out to be either.
  22. I was agreeing with everything up until the straight white male part. Sure they’re pretty privileged and all but using that as a way to justify bigotry or hate towards them isn’t right either, that is beginning to verge on racist territory For example, I’ve seen this extended to the point of trying to teach white kids how to hate themselves. When victims start ruling with an iron fist, they’re no longer victims and unfortunately this is the approach many have tried adopting.
