Thought of the Day – 4/25/22

I’ve been taking some time to think. More and more it looks like we’ve come to live in a world of ideological dogma. The neo-progressives have taken more and more totalitarian ideology into their dogma. They are less and less concerned with evidence, whether it is the evidence of their own eyes, or of the […]

I believe we are getting to the point where conservatives realize that nothing they will do will ever be enough for the other side. Like a disapproving parent, no matter of apology, contriteness, or compromise will satisfy their desire for dominance. Conservatives have been asked to shut up, step back, back down, move aside, and […]

I’ll keep it short today. I’ve seen for a long time that social media is toxic. My fiancé and I had a chance to talk about it today. Social media is a game now, with cheat codes and everything. We have come to understand the rules, and the goals, and in all honesty it’s not […]

Thought of the Day – 4/14/22

It is concerning to see how far the neo-progressives have shifted to the left. What people say about how the Overton Window has shifted is true. On many issues, it seems like the acceptable range of policy has resulted in the middle, or those who consider themselves classically liberal to be lumped in with the […]

The more that people use the “isms,” the less that they mean. I had heard an argument recently surrounding the “OK, Groomer” comeback when it comes to the Parental Rights in Education Law in Florida. The “left” (Neo-Progressives authoritarians) uses language in two fashions. They widen the meaning of pejoratives in order to include more […]

Thought of the Day – 4/12/22

Morning all. I’m back from a long weekend, and I’m feeling a little conspiratorial today (hence the tin foil hat). So, indulge me if you will. In China, they are dealing with a surge of COVID cases, according to CNBC, about 1200 symptomatic and 27,000 asymptomatic cases on Sunday. This is in response to the […]

I’ll keep this one short and sweet. People need to be allowed to fail. Societies need to be allowed to fail. There is immense gravity to comfort. And the more that we refuse to step out of our comfort zones, the shallower our lives become. We are on our way to a terrible awakening, where […]

The words from the San Francisco Gay Men’s chorus came out with the song “We’re coming for your children.” Below are the lyrics. You can find the video here. “You think we’re sinful, you fight against our right, you say we all lead lives you can’t respect. But you’re just frightened, you think that we’ll […]

Thought of the Day – 4/6/22

I’ve been thinking about mercy and grace recently. It reminds me of a passage from Orson Scott Card’s Speaker for the Dead. “A Great Rabbi stands, teaching in the marketplace. It happens that a husband finds proof that morning of his wife’s adultery, and a mob carries her to the marketplace to stone her to […]

“In order to be able to think, you have to risk being offensive.” Jordan Peterson Within the world of social media, we are finding ourselves more and more in a world where we “offend” others. Those who seek power use this notion of offense to silence others. I remember the phrase “silence is violence” cropping […]
