Every single time I read about a politician being completely, emotionally unhinged and divorced from reality, said politician is a woman. EVERY. FUCKING. TIME.

Women in politics was a huge mistake, and we're witnessing the fallout. We mistakenly imagined that they could be as rational as men in a crisis. They can't.

Unfortunately, we can't unring that bell. But I'll say this: our Founding Fathers would take one look at what we've done, and what's going on now, and would be absolutely mystified that we could be this stupid. They were all students of human nature, and philosophy, and biology, and knew what was what. And yet their descendants arrogantly forgot all of it. They would be baffled as to how we managed to forget so much.

Hell, Plato literally understood more about what's happening right now than our current politicians and populace do. He would shake his head in disgust.

I'm beginning to come around to believing this, given the past several years.

We as a species are loathe to say things like this, having been ingrained with this ethereal idea that "equality" matters most. Our collective ancestral guilt has elevated that idea. And it's that type of fucking around with the natural order of things that is leading us straight down the shitter.

Diversity being our strength is a lie. That we're all exactly the same is a lie. That we're all exactly equal is a lie. That men and women are completely interchangeable is a lie. That white people and black people are identical, apart from color, is a lie.

And once we agreed to those lies, we became a nation built on lies. And Political Correctness was expressly designed to maintain and enforce those lies, and to isolate and shame anyone who dares question those lies.

I agree. Mother nature is no fan of equality or fairness. Every study has shown that women, for example have become increasingly MORE unhappy with each passing year since around 1970 when they started surveying them on this topic. Yet, women are more advantaged today than ever. That should be a wake up call right there. The further we stray from basic life truths, the faster we will spiral down the hush flush deluxe, and the more miserable human existence is becoming. I don't really believe that the leaders of the far left/Marxists actually believe most of what they are spewing. Merely, they are trying to sow lies,chaos, and confusion among the masses to usher themselves into power.

They will then get rid of the "useful" idiots as soon as they do, history has shown over and over.

It's worse in that it's literally dangerous, as we're seeing.

I've studied a lot of political philosophy, and the ancient Greeks fully understood that emotion (irrational passions), have no place in politics. America was formed by educated old white men for a very good reason. And the Left, with their "Ok Boomer, fuck old white people, young brown and black voices are the future," is an outright attack on the very foundation of Western Civilization.

If they want a government based on impassioned, emotional, black and brown young people, there are several to choose from. And ALL OF THEM are abject failures, while America remains the single greatest country on the face of the earth.

4 And I will give children to be their princes, and babes shall rule over them.

5 And the people shall be oppressed, every one by another, and every one by his neighbour: the child shall behave himself proudly against the ancient, and the base against the honourable . . .

12 As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths.

(Isaiah 3:4-5; 11-12, KJV; emphasis added)

Posted by a Christian who happens to also be a woman. There's a reason we believe the Bible is the Word of God. We're living Isaiah chapter 3.

I've been asking for a while now: do you have to be a ©unt to be a Democrat? Even the men are ©unts! I never thought I'd see the day when I'd use that word so often, and use it to describe men, for cryin' out loud!

Wow. As an agnostic who has studied more than his fair share of Ancient Greek philosophy, though has never fully read the Bible, I'd overlooked the good book's application toward political philosophy.

It's interesting -- the study of philosophy naturally lends itself to the appreciation of the wisdom of our predecessors, yet it is often positioned as the antithesis of religious thought. But clearly, there is a considerably amount of overlap and common ground.

To borrow a great phrase that I encountered right here on this site...there are female politicians, and those who are "cognitively female." And I'll be damned if that didn't hit the nail on the head. The problem is really the emotion-to-reason quotient. Some people are led by emotion, others by reason. And that makes all the difference.

Oregon House Speaker Tina Kotek, D-Portland needs a residential visit by her beloved marauding riotous scum.

The fact she asked what needed to be protected, “an empty office building,” going on the whine about the health of neighbors and kids in the neighborhood is absurd.

If another “autonomous” zone is set up, death and destruction will follow. If my area was under threat I’d call for tear gas danger close.
