I think your point about her sex being irrelevant is disproved by the ongoing conservathot phenomenon.
Except you're the one drawing that connection. I didn't say there aren't any simps on the right (of course there are), I said I don't think that's what this is about. Because conservatives also simp for males they shouldn't. For example the non-conservatives like Peterson, Lindsay, Murray, Kissin, and all those pushing that brand of nonsense. Or, heck, people like Shapiro, or Dave Rubin.
People want to feel validated, by larger voices than their own. That's what they're often simpling for; that a famous person also shares some of their views. So they're more willing to look past their other faults, so they can continue to claim that person are Their Guy.
Again, there are those who simp for females because they're females, but that doesn't mean every instance of simping for a female is because they're female. I still don't think most people simp for Rowling because she's a woman.
The fact is that women are given much more leeway in right-wing spaces than men are...
Are they, though? Again, there are plenty of men and women both who escape the scrutiny they likely deserve, just because they espouse some conservative leaning opinions.
Conservatives were so beaten down by the Mainstream, and always portrayed as the Other, that there are plenty who will support any prominent voice who props them up.
As far as Rowling being useful...
Which I already said she basically isn't.
My point isn't to defend Rowling - something I have not done at any point here - but to say I don't agree with your characterization that there's a large group of people on the right simping for her because she's a woman.
We're in agreement that she's shit, and the right shouldn't support her.
But that was a trick. There will be another virus, which the vaccines that did nothing for covid, will for this one. Thus the people like me will end up all dying off.
I'm not saying there will, just that it's one potential angle for a psyop endgame.
It literally leaked from a chinese lab.
With American backing, and an at least partially American strain. Not saying it's Ze Jews, but it's way oversimplistic to act like this starts and ends with China. Yeah, China was involved, responsible, and helped fuck us. No argument. Saying that precludes any other involvement is terrible logic though.
Last I checked, Fauci wasn't Chinese, for example.
But we know unequivocally that the vaccines didn't work at all.
They were largely ineffective for the stated goal. That's different than saying they did nothing at all.
Not saying this is the case, but it's possible that a second set of diseases could be released that was affected by the vaccine, thus killing off the unvaccinated en masse while not really affecting the vaccinated.
The thought is that it was engineered to affect them the least/not at all. RFK is on tape saying as much.
He was talking the disease, not the vaccine.
And he didn't say engineered, that was taken out of context to smear him as an antisemite™ and destroy him. He said covid affected some groups a lot, and some groups - such as Jews - not nearly as much.
The JK Rowling conversation is a very efficient way of immediately flushing out the cucks on the right though. Those supposedly independent-minded men who, as soon as Rowling and TERFs are mentioned, will immediately demonstrate their pathological determination to blindly simp for any nominally feminist woman...
I agree on the first part, disagree on the second part. I think her sex is irrelevant. They're not simping/cucking because she's a woman, but because she's a celebrity.
It's retarded both ways, don't misunderstand me, but I don't think they're simping - at least primarily - because she's a woman. She's famous, and there are plenty of people who are still celebrity cucks. They haven't escaped the appeal to authority. "A celebrity agrees with me!"
But, again, you're completely correct on the first part; it's a very useful metric, whether a "conservative" supports JK Rowling (or similar celebrities...Riley Gaines springs to mind) or not. Anyone who does, is really missing the forest through the cucktrees.
It's a bit of an IQ test, similar to breakfast question, or the ceiling bird. Can you perceive why someone is saying or believing something? Rowling clearly believes what she does on the troon issue because she's a man-hating feminist. Not on our side. She hates us. Anyone who misses that is a retard.
JK Rowling is, at best, a somewhat useful tool, but even that's pushing it. She's a rabid progressive feminist, just not a fully intersectional one. Her only good feature is that she makes the most insane Harry Potter fans seethe, and that's pretty funny.
Newsom is incompetent for doing nothing about it.
There's just something amazing and hilarious that people across the world recognize how pathetic Newsom is.
Am I the only one who thinks if they like waving the Mexican flag so much, they should just go back to Mexico?
No, you are not the only one. Based.
George Soros crowd are all in on this.
Ahahaha, they know too.
It’s Japan’s future too. We should deal with illegal foreigners in Japan more strictly.
Yes. Get your shit together; you have so many examples of why it's necessary, and why letting yourselves go down the same path is suicide. Reminder, though; it's not just "illegal" foreigners. Any foreigner can be used...as well as your natives can be brainwashed. It's not the legal status itself that's the only issue...you have to combat the subversion itself.
My point is, surely the NG can handle it. And it's not like they've all been deployed; we could just send more NG if the current number isn't enough. Or, this would be hilarious, give federal authorization to send in some state guards, for example Florida. Now that would be funny.
Eisenhower already set that precedent by sending the 101st Airborne into Arkansas to force negros into white schools at bayonet point.
Whoa, I guess I misremembered that one. I really thought that was the Guard, but it was indeed the Airborne. Totally fucked up, either way.
Or Herbert Hoover, who sent the Army to force WWI veterans wanting to redeem their fucking bonus coupons out of Washington DC.
Also absolutely fucked up.
riots are popping off in Chicago, Atlanta, NY, Philly and Dallas already.
I very likely won't, but I'm sort of tempted to travel to Portland this weekend when they'll start burning shit down. Would be funny to watch the retards in person.
That's based and all but...why?
Surely the National Guard can handle things, right? Sending Marines or other non-NG military to act on American soil does set a dangerous precedent, not to mention just inflame things further. Again, we already have the Guard. Isn't sending them in enough?
I like that Trump sent in the Guard, but anything more seems like it's just asking for trouble. And, yeah, there is the aforementioned precedent issue.
A lot of people will like this, because the people being targeted are retards who totally deserve it...but that doesn't mean it's the right move. Satisfying, sure. Correct...ehhhhhhhh.
That's pretty legendary. Wish it wasn't censored.
"If you love Mexico, get the fuck over there," really does cut to the core of the issue.
You're free to like Mexico. You're free to appreciate or be proud of Mexico. But you can't be American and Mexican at the same time. We're tired of Mexicans in America. We're tired of the hyphens and other foreign-aligned individual, no matter the allegiance.
If you want to live here, you have to be American. I'm even willing to give some leeway and play by liberal rules, even (to some extent, if done in good faith)...you can identify as American...but the people we're talking about won't even do that. They're Mexicans. Not Americans. Not even Mexican-Americans. They're Mexicans...who think they deserve to live in America, and be respected by Americans. But still be Mexicans. Nope. Mexicans can go to Mexico.
Also, I'd forgotten - or never even noticed - but I was directly quoted in a "TopMinds" brigade, back in the day.
LOL.
To be fair, it does go hard, if I do say so myself:
It's all "allegedly" this and "allegedly" that, until it's time to dunk on Orange Man. Then things are indisputable facts.
I know everyone (rightfully) hates Reddit, but this is pretty sad, in my opinion. I happened to check in on this, and was pretty surprised with just how inactive it was.
Our own mods is in revolt against us, but we're still (much!) more active than our Reddit parent.
Their "hot" sorting goes back to nineteen days...ours goes back to one.
They absolutely strangled themselves. It didn't have to be this way.
IT. DIDN'T. HAVE. TO. BE. THIS. WAY.
Gotta say, I'm always suspicious when people push this shit, though.
Of course you're right...to some extent. It is arbitrary, and there are logical issues, like the mentioned seventeen year old the day before their next birthday.
But you can make the exact same argument the other way. If a fifteen year old is sexy, why not fourteen? Why not thirteen? Twelve? What if they have early puberty? Eleven, ten, nine?!
I'll take an arbitrary line versus the evil that a more fluid one could allow. 'If she bleeds, she breeds' is psychotic, because you have to admit you're not magically mature just because you hit puberty.
Speaking of, what about other things? Can a fifteen year old vote? Drink, smoke, join the military, drive, or any other currently age gated things? Be completely free from parental oversight, and be treated as a full adult?
Age difference also comes into account. A thirty or forty year old dude who is into sixteen year olds, especially if it's a specific interest, is pretty creepy. People pushing for 'find this fifteen year old sexy' are often pushing a specific agenda.
Regardless, I think the current system is somewhat close to correct, although we can argue exact implementation or age in some cases. But it prevents a lot more harm than it causes.
As law, I'd take 'no sex with minors' over 'some sex with children is alright,' but that's just me. You have to draw a line somewhere, or people do get hurt.
