Two different topics I am not qualified to talk about but am interested in hearing your opinions on:


    

  1. Apparently there is now a crime in Britain called a 'homophobic public offense.' Committing this crime will get you arrested. This has come to the wider world's attention because of a video of an autistic teenaged girl being dragged out of her home for telling one of the police officers she looked like her lesbian nana. I will speak plainly that I read the same evil on the face of the lesbian-nana-cop that sent the kulaks to the gulags and now have the impression Britain is pretty well not a free country. But it's a big country, anyone can cherrypick one terrible story out of millions (or billions, in the new case of that little girl in india who had been gangraped and then gangraped again in the hospital by the doctors), and I am not British so I can't speak to the probative value. Throwing it out there though https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12396427/Lesbian-nana-arrest-police-autistic-exclusive.html
    2. 



NB This was a few days ago and the cops have since dropped the charges after public backlash. This time.


    

  1. A new audio sensation is sweeping the nation, a previously-nobody named Oliver Anthony has come out with an actually-good red tribe anthem called 'Rich Men North of Richmond.' Over the last week or so it's become ubiquitous in 'the RW blogosphere' - too many big names to list have independently drawn attention to it and Anthony is going to need some serious professional help to manage all of the invitations to appear on, well, everything. Give it a listen and see if it does anything for you: https://youtube.com/watch?v=sqSA-SY5Hro
    2. 



I'm not from the south, but I and most of the rest of non-southern righties decided a long time ago we would just appropriate it. Confederate flags in rural Michigan, etc. To me it has a kind of universality to it. Don't miss the line 'if you're 5 foot 3 and 300 pounds, tax dollars shouldn't pay for your bags of fudge rounds." Interested to hear your thoughts

If the populist conservatives took power, they would be incapable of wielding it since their policies lack depth beyond SJWs bad but trans people with MAGA hats good.




Here are three policy positions that virtually every populist conservative would cream their pants at. You can think they're retarded or wrong, but they are actual positions


    

  1. Deport anyone here illegally
    2. 

  2. Start paying down the national debt
    3. 

  3. No more foreign wars
    4. 



If you choose to believe that your enemies are all clowns without depth that's your choice. 'Nazi' is a derogatory nickname for 'Ignatius' - a common Bavarian peasant name.

"This is the best place there is, so we should never critique it" is terrible advice. I'm sorry for cheaply paraphrasing what you said but it's how it read to me. This is the best place there is, you're right. It's worth trying to protect and cherish.

That might be true now, or more appropriately I should say that might be becoming increasingly true, but in my experience if I checked the motte in the morning I'd be up-to-date on the culture war for the afternoon. Many, many examples spring to mind but let's just give one good one - I learned here there was a man named "George Floyd'

I didn't know Joe the Plumber died but I absolutely remember him being a cultural touchstone for years. That culture is also dead. Fortunately someone wrote a good song about it for once


PS @Zorba is it just me? Trying to navigate in the response box is just miserable. Everytime I try to select something the box greys out instead

@Zorba something is up with the site code that makes trying to copy/paste a nightmare. It just doesn't work right. It either tries to copy or paste more than what one was trying to. Something is also up with text selection in the response box, selecting and editing text is completely borked. Trying to right click an incorrecrly spelled word for example will grey out the entire box module. I replicated these error on brave (chrome) and edge




rather than helping people like you get their latest CW fix.




That seems like a really uncharitable way to describe having previously enjoyed this spot as central source of important developments

I feel all that Hard and I'm still inclined to say I'm still surprised by the depths of their depravity sometimes. The autistic teenaged girl in England being manhandled and thrown in a cage for telling the lesbian-nana-looking cop she looked like her lesbian nana surprised me

More that they were wrong to dismiss it - but rereading my op I'm understanding why people took it as a personal attack. Brevity may be the soul of wit but y'all love the limbs and outer flourishes

"It went viral, therefore I was right and you were wrong" is a silly argument




Why 'paraphrase' (read: make something up) rather than respond to what I actually said? I asserted that it might have legs. Turns out I was right. How is that an argument at all, much less a silly one?

Because I'm just a guy. I don't work at the world bank and have special insight into global financial markets or work at google and have personal knowledge of the tech world, etc. I'm just some guy. I have no insights or historical context or enlightened commentary to share. Someone who knows what they're talking about should've brought it up so I didn't have to 'wing it'

It's an objectively huge stone dropped in the culture pond that's making ripples and the community kind of didn't give a shit.

just because virtually everything is fake and gay doesn't necessitate that literally everything is. the guy went on joe rogan and spoke his mind.

I used to feel like a guy being traffic among Mario Andretti's, now I'm the guy with the stick like 'c'mon, do something already'


You don't see the problem with the board caustically dismissing a song as huge as 'Rich men north of richmond' and I was the one that had to bring it up in the first place. Maybe that is a problem in and of itself

Okay, boo hoo, i was wrong, everything was shit. My bad. on me. It's still bigger than the indians landing on the moon. Even the fact you're bitching about it now is part of it being the biggest story in the world. It should have been brought up here by someone else than me going 'uh guys maybe take a look' and you being so dismissive of it is part of the story
