I don't think there are any particular reasons to believe PF are "feds" (presumably meaning: led by federal informants?) beyond them being a group that does IRL protests.




The issue is that their uniform looks like the stereotype for "off duty cop" or "soldier in civilian clothes" and they would show up with riot shields out of a police catalog when they first started.

Corinna is no lamb at all. This is two wolves and a lamb deciding what's for dinner.




So if Yang is a wolf and Corinna is a wolf, who is the lamb?




In a separate vein, I suppose as a society we've aught to figure out what to do with a bunch of infertile, underdeveloped, and purposeless/telosless young people. The usual modes of hedonism I am pretty sure aren't going to an option for this class so it is likely that left alone they go to even more anti-social routes. Any ideology that picks them up is going to have people who have fire and will not age-out of it.


I hope I don't have to impress upon you how much of problem that will become...

120k minors were diagnosed with gender dysphoria and 17k were put on puberty blockers or pills, suggesting that even among those who get a dysphoria diagnosis, the rates for going on to medical transition are very low, around 1/8th




A null hypothesis for this is that puberty blockers are generally dangerous drugs and that many doctors do not want to deal with the liability.

It is no hidden fact that black communities hate the black cops, because generally they have an excuse to be the worst hardass they can be.


I am not particularly sure how you'd be able to get a cop that is a community member of the bad neighborhoods, while not paying them enough to not live there. Certainly not someone degreed.

The pre-48 era of cars is also an era where you are pretty much doing bespoke parts and full custom builds, which hurts the wallet even more than when it spawned tuner culture.


I expect that the reprogrammed and custom ECUs that define tuners are going to have a lot more legs than you express in this post as well, particularly as modern cars get scrapped due to obscure and poorly designed CANBUS problems at higher rates.


Kustom Kulture and the "live fast, die young" mindset is also to a degree what the streetrods you visited very much were created to exclude, as expressed by an attempt to family friendly. I don't think that the aging demographic there is going to much speak to that subculture. They might more be associated with motorcycles now tho. Car meets are still fairly regular in most of the country, facilitated by social media, and I know of some deeper levels where street racing is organized.

I am once more struck by how cookie cutter spree killings have become in the US. You'd think we'd see more truck rentals after the Islamic extremist killings using them but I suppose that doesn't get you time magazine covers and your face shoved in mine like this guy has been.

There was quite a while where I could show up to a bar without a mask for a drink but couldn't sing or participate in rituals at a church.


Assuming that I am not lying, is that an injustice?

If you think they were meaningfully similar to the modern white nationalists, they were also commies and ancaps and monarchists all at the same time.


But generally if you talk to them, they do reason through things similar to the worst sorts of leftists. I generally get bored with them and start using the arguments I learned here to argue for them.

If guns were as easy and cheap to access in the UK as they are in the US then gun crime in Britain would probably rise, just as cheap Balkan guns imported by Albanian gangs have meant higher rates of gun crime in some Western European countries over the last 15 years as EU borders have expanded and become more porous.




You know, as an American libertarian it is far easier for me to say that in this fashion America is far more similar to Brazil than the UK. A total gun ban would just mean that Glocks get auto sears like they do in Chicago, but the entire US.

, and they are still going strong.




This is an unsupported statement, the decline of Christianity is almost exclusively composed of these Churches with conservative churches consistently posting growth numbers.


It is to the point where several of them near me post congregations in the single digits and share a pastor over a month.

Personally my answer for them would be to create an explicitly opt-in secondary class of marriage that functioned like marriage did in the past. I don't know how long they'd be able to keep it up in the face of regular society, but I imagine it'd be popular enough with islamic immigrants that they'd be able to call any criticism of it racist.




So some sort of privately certified pre-nup?

In such a case, some data > no data, just keep in mind the error bars are higher than they would be if this was an established survey house polling on a traditional question like "who do you want for president".




If it makes us draw a false conclusion then yes, it is most certainly worse than no data.


No hedging of the claim seems to be occurring, it isn't "my followers" after all, and the blatant motte and bailey here probably has pushed me out of suspicion and into hostility as it concerns Aella.

Look- I wasn't expecting my post to be accepted with applause and universal agreement, but my thought out, nuanced, cited post gets 4 upvotes, while apologia for sexually harassing women (that dismisses out of hand what I wrote) gets 30+?




Yeah and it kinda sucks that he got 30 upvotes.


But I don't believe you don't care about only getting 4, because at the end of the day you aren't downvoted into the ground like with other echochambers.


The best achievement you can get in a place where there are serious debates happening is to go against the groupthink and come out on top, which you've done.


Jfc conventional BBSs like system remains superior to reddits.

I can't help but think "but other than that Mrs Lincoln how was the play?" When you bring up the idea that discussion shouldn't happen on a subject because people might be mean.
