James Cameron made a movie praising a master race? Big if true!.
James Cameron was not subtle when he made a movie about humans being bigoted toward a literal superior race, and right wingers will still come along and be like “no the humans are right.” You have to hand it to them for never understanding any art.

I wonder if the Democrats would accept a deal where they get to keep the illegals but they only count as 3/5ths persons for purposes of apportionment.
You have no idea just how much the Democratic Party has to rely on non-citizens and illegal aliens to inflate their legislative districts. Just look at this. Nearly 25% of this Blue district's population in the Virginia House of Delegates are "non-citizens". These people get to

Let’s do some math to figure out the odds your vote will “matter” (determine outcome of pres election). If you live in swing state it’s 1/37,000, if not, 1/10 million. Reality: democracy gives you power like playing the lotto makes you rich.
Inclusive: entrance into the political system isn't formally reserved for certain classes or groups. You can join a party, work in politics, campaign, agitate, and opine, plus you get to vote. That vote can even matter sometimes. This is distinct from many systems!.

I can’t imagine what it is about the experience of conservatives over the last ten years that has led to “strategic skepticism” of leftists and leftist-controlled institutions.
Postmodern conservatism isn't defined by general skepticism, but strategic epistemic skepticism in selecting who and what to believe based on whatever feels affirming. In effect playing "choose your own truth" round the clock. We saw that in grand style the other day.

The leftist ruling class that inhabit these partially public funded institutions lose all meaning in life when the tax cattle refuse to pay them their tribute. This has little to do with finances, everything to do with wounded pride.

Not just in Britain, but America as well, the distinction between “the law” and the arbitrary command of a judge is disappearing.
The new Crime and Policing Bill which is receiving its second reading in the House of Lords contains a provision for so-called “respect orders” which will “require the respondent to do anything described in the order.” This will certainly mean compelled speech but maybe more.

Leftists have a cute semantic dodge for this. Instead of saying “underrepresented” which is factually false they say “historically underrepresented.”.
Also worth noting that it’s commonplace in fields where men are now alarmingly underrepresented. Theres still this tendency to treat the young men as “overrepresented” like it’s 1975, when in fact theyve vanished.

The funniest thing about this video is that it pans out from the women and you see a guy in foreground feigning enthusiasm and nervously darting eyes betraying his real motive for being there.

Someone pointed out the other day there are surprisingly few movies about the American founding. Well, here is one.
First teaser for James Vanderbilt’s ‘NUREMBERG’ starring Russell Crowe, Rami Malek, Leo Woodall and Michael Shannon. In theaters November 7.

Atheists assured us that humanity would advance to higher stages of enlightenment and rationality if only we could emancipate ourselves from ancient religious belief. Glad to see that has worked out.

This made me laugh at first then sad as I realized we live in the stupidest timeline where spiteful feminists who resent girls drawing princesses have power and we have laws forcing us to sit through their endless hr trainings.
i used to teach an art class for little kids. we had a unit where each kid drew “someone powerful”. 99% of boys drew: a tank man made of tanks with tanks for arms and his head is a tank. 99% of girls drew a princess. everyone i worked with hated this and it happened every time.

Colin needs to win this, and he needs to win big. Set a precedent to incentivize future legal action, paving way for a tsunami of large, punitive settlements. It better work. It’s the moderate solution.

The system that creates these outcomes was put in place almost a century ago. Race communism has been standard judicial doctrine at highest level since justice Stone argued in a 1938 case (see Carolene Products, fn 4) that the law must be applied differently to different races.
Our legal system is completely broken, at every level, by judges who should be disbarred, but cannot be. Until we reform the courts, we cannot win completely.
