It’s so easy. Mostly because those who have been poisoned with “woke Leftism” can’t help themselves. The faux moral outrage has to come out. Mind you, in a few it’s not fake but internalized. I hope my recent reading of Ted Kaczynski’s “Industrial Society and Its Future” shed some light on the leftist mind because there may be no better explanation of it than his.
So, what caused the Low-T men and SSRI-poisoned women to be themselves this time?
Seems rather wholesome to me and peak ‘Murica! Anyone with a sense of humor knows that Massie did this to get a rise out of them. But Leftists, being who they are, have to take the opportunity to signal to the in-group. Mind you, every group is guilty of this, but leftists corner the market on it.
So, you can just imagine the replies. Here’s a standard comment you can find under any post that champions self-defense:
Honestly, the only thing that makes me the slightest bit fearful is that people like Bryan exist, and have any say in my life. Secession now! How can we live and thrive sharing a polity with scum like this?
But you didn’t think this was only about the “woke left” crowd, did you?
When someone starts with “… as a libertarian,” rest assured what’s coming next is going to be a world-class, dogshit take. Can you guess what comes next?
Before I go any further, I need to say that I know people who work for Reason who are amazingly based and this shit makes them cringe. Unfortunately, the people at Reason with the loudest voices and biggest social media presence often come off as apologists for the regime. Shit like this doesn’t help. I will decry the teaching of CRT, normalizing transitioning 4-year-olds and pumping them full of poison chemicals, and anything else that harms the bodies or minds of people, but especially children. I won’t attack someone for taking a picture in which they’re promoting of a God-given right.
To borrow a thought from a post I saw on Twitter, I have to believe that if they were all holding bongs and Massie’s daughter was wearing an “I Had an Abortion” t-shirt, the Beltway Libertarians would’ve re-Tweeted and championed their “stunningness and braveness”. Unfortunately, Massie’s picture may upset some of the swamp creatures in DC who continue to extend invitations to the Beltway Liberatti as long as they stick to a certain narrative. Fuck all that! The last people I want to think I’m on their side are those who seek to take away every liberty I still enjoy.
I want select-fire weapons sold at the corner store. Billy wants partial-birth abortions to be available there (probably). We are not the same.
It’s completely ok, acceptable and correct to champion all left wing causes and cultural views to the average left lib/ CATOiD, but as soon as you do anything that smells culturally right wing they will scoff, condemn, and pander to the progressive worldview.
"What are you all so afraid of?" See: Australia, Austria, Germany, Los Angeles, Chicago, etc.. Why is this asshole so comfortable with the state of the world? Bryan's privilege is really showing.
