I would like to hijack the top comment for a PSA about the Democrat's latest lie.

They constantly say that "it's unprecedented for a president to nominate a justice this close to an election!" This is completely false and really misleading. In fact, there were 6 justices in history who were nominated and confirmed by a president during the lame-duck period AFTER an election in which they LOST.

John Marshall (January 1801)

John Catron (March 1837)

Peter Vivian Daniel (March 1841)

Samuel Nelson (February 1845)

William Burnham Woods (December 1880)

Howell Edmunds Jackson (February 1893)

No. The only people they boycotted are themselves. If they don't want the opportunity to vote, they can leave for all I care.

So judges in PA changed the rules a few days ago in favor of Democrats despite PA law, but when Republicans try to change the rules in favor of the law, judges rule that it's too late.

How can leftists simultaneously believe in "equality" and "diversity"? No... really? Equality means "be equal" and diversity means "be not equal"... This is why there is so much hypocrisy in leftist philosophy; it's hypocritical to the core.

The real truth is that neither equality nor diversity really matter too much. There are advantages to both, and disadvantages to both. Just let nature govern how people want to act. AKA: freedom.

Have been using it for a couple months. Have absolutely no regrets, and you honestly can't tell a difference in search quality.

Yup. It's 2050, there are 0 Covid cases, and yet you still have to wear a mask 24/7.

There are no parameters, so how do I know who has to "WearMask", "WashHands", "Stay6ftApart", and "GetTested"?

Universities have essentially become modern versions of Princeton under Woodrow Wilson -- everything is always about race.

while every major institution supports their ideas and conservatives get censored off universities and the internet.

This. I wish I could cleanse my mind of it, but university forces me to constantly think about race.

I think there was a Jordan Peterson quote about this and how unconscious bias training actually leads to more unconscious bias because it forces people to explicitly think about race.

It's the same language they use when they constantly say "we need to have a conversation about ____". When they say "conversation", they don't mean a real conversation, they mean that you shut up and believe everything they say. Same thing here. When they say "free speech", it's only free speech for them.

He must be so proud of himself -- this has been his life-long mission -- his destiny.

Remember when it was "they first came for Alex Jones"...

We're entering a full-on war at this point -- a war between truth and lies. A war between freedom and tyranny. A war between radicals and normal people. The radicals will do anything to look normal -- will do anything to look like they're reasonable; they're not. They'll backstab the people the moment they take power. If Biden gets elected, it will only get worse from here. They'll feel empowered and justified. The government is the last institution left which hasn't been taken over -- we have to defend it with everything we've got.

I really hope the silent majority comes out on November 3rd.

^ If the Democrats want to release someone's private tax returns, we can release our own information about Biden. What comes around comes around.

Notes are honestly overrated in the first place. Never take them. Better to listen to the instructor than waste your time copying every word they say while understanding none of it.

Though I consider myself mostly libertarian in philosophy, there are problems with their philosophy which fundamentally cannot be fixed.

Ultimately, the libertarian philosophy can be summarized as "as long as you don't do harm to others without their consent, you can do whatever you want." However, the phrase "do harm to others without consent" is vague and effectively impossible to truly accomplish.

For example, if I stand nearby someone's property, someone could argue that I am affecting their property because light-waves bounce off me and go into their property. What if the owner doesn't consent to my light-waves going into their property? In a very minimal way, I might be hurting them.

Any reasonable person would obviously say that this example is ridiculous, but it demonstrates that all actions have consequences, and those consequences could affect other people. We cannot reasonably ask for consent for everything we do. This is where society, through a government, steps in to decide what people can and can't do without getting consent. Generally, government should err on the side of liberty without consent under the assumption that people can solve their own disputes, but it needs to recognize areas where use of force is justified to make sure people don't gravely violate each other's rights.

I don't think my history classes every went into any depth, probably because they think it's culturally insensitive or some other bullshit. Reading more into it, I now realize how awful it really was.

All cultures are not equal. Some cultures are objectively better than others. Period. Any other stance is effectively denying the existence of morality and truth.

From what I've gathered, consistent statistics on this are hard to find because the definition of "welfare" is vague. This left-leaning article (https://www.thoughtco.com/who-really-receives-welfare-4126592) does have total white recipients higher, but per capita, it's higher for black people (18.9% of the recipients on welfare are black in the article while black people represent 12.6% of the population). Other articles give statistics with higher black per-capita welfare.

It's almost like people are reasonable and can look things up and research when leftists stop calling them all racists and demonizing whites for everything.
