@stillgray Rand knew.
Only Ayn Rand was smart enough to predict that incompetence and an ENVY for excellence will lead to dystopian social outcomes. Orwell thought we'd need total mind control, Huxley thought we'd need a permanently drugged populace, but Rand knew: all you need is resentment

In the United States, the probability of attaining at least a BA is significantly higher for Whites than for Blacks. But once you control for IQ, the probability becomes higher for Blacks than for Whites. Conclusion: Not only is there clearly no discrimination against Blacks

It’s probably a bad idea to have millions of highly educated, low-IQ people, because more problems come from the illusion of knowing than from not knowing

What do you think accounts for this and what do you think even are the available options? Like, nobody thinks that if law enforcement is allowed to bother you, then you’re allowed to bother law enforcement. That’s not actually a thing that any normal, honest person believes. So
John Oliver: "If ICE can bother some guys at a roofing job, bystanders can bother ICE at their state-sanctioned kidnapping job."

A valid point, but this map is also, in a certain sense, a lie. If only White males were allowed to vote, as the founders intended, or if there were any other remotely sane filter on the disaster that is universal suffrage, such as: - Must have a certain net worth to vote. -
The United States electoral map if only White males were able to vote. This is what the founders of America intended for their country. The United States was never supposed to have anything other than a “far right” government.

A three year old can instantly pick out a “bad guy” in a movie by looks alone, then we turn around and teach them “don’t judge a book by its cover” for the real world. Lol, lmao even.

Rape was quite common throughout history and prehistory. In some places today, such as the West, we have built societies were rape had become comparatively very rare, and with a high level of safety for women. But now for some reason, Western European countries decided to

2010 Republicans: 'In 10-15 years, the ACA will have destroyed healthcare, making things too expensive to function!' 2010 Democrats: 'REPUBLICANS DON'T WANT YOU TO HAVE HEALTHCARE' 2025 Democrats: 'LOOK WHAT REPUBLICANS DID TO DESTROY HEALTHCARE AND RAISE COSTS FOR YOUR FAMILY'
Everyday Americans already pay too much to see a doctor or visit the hospital. The Republican healthcare crisis is making things worse. You deserve better.

It's mind boggling to read military history from the turn of the 19th century where French & British cavalry engaged in incredible acts of strategy, heroism & sacrifice all for their descendants to give it all up to some unarmed beggars from thousands of miles away.

There were no "black" Roman emperors — that is, there were no emperors of Sub-Saharan African descent. There was one "Arab" emperor, from a Semitic group in Syria. And yet Vivek paints this fake picture of emperor diversity. It's annoying when liberals do this sort of thing, but
“Racism�� didn’t really exist in ancient Rome. Emperors were white, black, Arab, didn’t matter. The color of your skin was like the color of your eyes. *Citizenship* is the distinction they drew. It wasn’t just about what you got in return, it was about your duty to your nation.

Everyone talked like this in 1993. Then there were laws like 3 strikes and you’re out, the prison population soared - and crime went down. Places like NYC became livable. Then people forgot the connection between jailing people and reducing crime - and here we are in 2025.

I'm loving this new Republican approach of not taking the Designated Liars seriously in hearings and just using the time to shout personal insults at them until time expires. The polite and professional approach wasn't working. This is definitely worth a try. And funny. Twofer.

Healthcare will keep getting more expensive until we repeal Obamacare So Congress should repeal Obamacare Republicans ran on this for a decade We shouldn’t run from it now Pass this on if you agree
The reality is that Obamacare is only affordable when it is heavily subsidized. The complete failure of the “Affordable” Care Act is why health insurance premiums have skyrocketed. That’s why I introduced a bill to completely—and responsibly—repeal Obamacare.

Here's an idea: Rather than shut down the Govt and argue endlessly over subsidies for insurance companies under the Unaffordable Care Act ... How about passing legislation fixing the problems that make it so expensive. The coverage mandates were predicted to lead to

Democrats are screaming about how much health insurance premium will rise if subsidies expire. 1) these were temp 2021 subsidies put in place during COVID to hide Obamacare destroying our health insurance markets. 2) we are merely going back to Obamacare 2014-2021 Democrats
