Might be a good question for Ron Paul. This was his district and he was around for it.

Father missing in three of four because he's dead. Unintentionally accurate.

Yes! That's actually why I support trans in women's sports. I remember my university men's swimming team got cut because of Title IX, now I realize they should have just all joined the women's team as the ideal solution.

You should do a big post on title IX as I think many don't understand it. I

Absolutely. In retrospect I am certain I had at least one teacher who was trying (in 6th year), and I was at a really high-end expensive school no less. She would wear loose top and no bra and lean way over to help me with math among other things. I realize looking back that I was lucky to be clueless and too busy trying to survive to notice.

From another side of it, as a student I found i could game the female teachers just by being attractive. It sadly prepared me for real life more than I would like to admit. A lot of male students can still do well to go that route and not get marked down.

As a parent I think it's harder strategy but breaking the teachers union should be first.

Stereo equipment too. Tried buying off Amazon, had a hiss that made listening impossible. Got a 1980s monster receiver with all the bells and whistles for a couple hundred and it can blast the roof off the house in perfect clarity if I crank it up. Magic.

I keep hoping my 90s fridge dies so I can "downgrade" to those gorgeous mid century refurbs you can find around. No luck yet, it keeps chugging.

I don't think tax or monetary reform was ever on the Maga agenda, or anyone's besides the Paul's.

Auditing the fed is still the best first step, and with inflation soaring it's the perfect time for a renewed push.

Vice got a Golden Parachute from Soros and co.

The real issue in my mind is that essentially, just like the "too big to fail" banks it's ultimately taxpayer money that goes to feed this propaganda. Real change will only come with monetary and tax reform and those need to be primary targets.

Slicing off a hydra head might feel good for a bit, until 3 more grow back. Not to say targets of opportunity like bud light aren't good efforts, but they aren't the heart of the issue.

If they are losing money on all these how can they afford to crank out so many so quickly?

The answer is simple: they aren't. As always they find a formula that works and they milk it dry.

This isn't meant as an insult, it's just that we need to adjust our mentality in order to combat this shit. Sitting and thinking they will sink any moment is not productive and counter to reality.

If it was a money loss, they couldn't afford to keep doing it. With the pull they get + ESG funds they are making a killing.

This is the equivalent of "the walls are closing in" or "tick tock" from Hannity. Still cope.

This is unfortunately cope.

Maybe that's a euphemism?

The sad part is that eventually they will fight each other for succession and rip Russia to shreds in the process.

It's at around 18:58, but the whole thing is worth listening to if you want to hear about how they enslaved a European and he eventually won his freedom.

Nice. Thanks!

Actually there are a few primary sources describing it in some native populations. It was described as even more reason why their cultures were awful.

Or showing the division that's already there.

The sad part is that it's likely Russia is going to be split apart in a bloody war for control at some point.

Watch the police make sure they aren't followed:

Poor Chunks is just trying to keep his head down and avoid the draft long enough to escape St Petersburg with his family. Working propaganda is probably tough.

FYI: Russia is conscripting way more. All my male friends there had to flee. Ukrainian men at least have places to go, not many options for Russians. Of course the liberals aren't starting any campaigns to help these refugees.

Even before the war, the average life expectancy of Russian men was 55. It's probably one of the worst places on the planet to be a dude.

Displaying your military capabilities in easily photographable areas is objectively a bad idea.

But that seems more like a consequence than a root cause.

Yeah I'm really not sure how that became the dominant opinion. It seems obvious to me.

I still think the right meme would raise awareness though.

I also suspect this is the root cause, that and crippling loneliness as hope of a relationship seems further out of reach.

I feel like this needs a proper meme campaign to raise awareness but I am not a skilled enough meme smith to do it.
