Not so fast buckos. Liberals and progressives are chameleon mutants of the political correctness world. They seek the lowest level of humanity, change their colors and come back as a different color of crap to step in. They need to be quarantined until they die.

Liberal is gonna be a liberal because they are slackmaster bottom feeder opportunist with dysfunctional moral compasses.

You know, I've heard that a couple times, but I'm not so sure it's the case. I think a lot of their big pushes are distractions while they work to get smaller incremental garbage under the radar.

Yup.

Let's ban oxygen. Big fight takes place. We settled on only restricting oxygen. Happy?

"the Overton Window"...
The smart way to keep people passive and obedient is to strictly limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion, but allow very lively debate within that spectrum—even encourage the more critical and dissident views. That gives people the sense that there's free thinking going on, while all the time the presuppositions of the system are being reinforced by the limits put on the range of the debate.

The perfect example of this is gay marriage.

While the left and right fought about whether same sex marriages should be allowed, nobody was asking the obvious question. Why do we need government permission to get married to begin with ?

No it isn't.

I'm fairly pessimistic because it helps to avoid me feeling let down. I have noted some of these left wing celebrities pushing back a bit. Bill Maher for sure is doing it.

And I'm seeing daily the violence and decay that is overtaking NYC again. Dailymail has articles about constantly and invariably the top comments are along the lines of "this is what you voted for", which is exactly correct.

Perhaps as the social justice mob scares more and more people away and their targets become more absurd we'll hit a breaking point.

Well said.

Allowed?

Inflation. They denied its existence yet it’s happening.

Well, they've half right.


The price of everything has risen drastically. But you don't really have inflation until wages catch up and the dollar is just worth less.

So far we've got the costs, and some helicopter money, but no actual increases in wages.


Sometime later this year I expect a lot of companies to announce some large raises and pat themselves on the back for their generosity.

Never mind that a 5% raise is a pay cut when the price of everything went up 10%. People will buy it hook, line, and sinker.

It has always been against them. You just believe big media.

I thought that tide was turning back in the '90's when the movie PCU came out.

Turns out that movie doesn't even scratch the surface of how insane things have become.

I made the mistake of believing that politics was downstream of culture. While that may have been true when news and entertainment developed organically, that is no longer the case.

Now politics programs culture to support it's goals.

We have gone from slavery to a system where people are convinced they *want* to spend all day picking cotton for someone else.
