the fall of the center right and why you should be glad

and people are waking up to this, tossing the greens, and embracing rights and nationalist ideas rather than be eaten by pseudoscience cults and globalists.

pretending to play at “centrism” while getting played like a $4 banjo by radical groups making extreme demands because “we should compromise” is not a path to success when your opposition excels at weaponizing empathy and trait empathization, rigging systems, and making up lysenko level “science” to justify ideology and to gin up pretext for power grabs. it’s the road to repeated rookings.

Could leave comments but by then out of time and patience. 🤮"
Imagine my surprise when a census worker showed up at my door yesterday because I hadn't done. She knew I had the long form and had it with her for us to complete and I told her when and where I filled out, even approximate time of day, and she asked for confirmation code so went to work trying to find. When you are rushed naturally can't find so said that I couldn't find. Found as soon as she got back to her car and showed her before she drove off. I can't hate this country enough as I know that because I only ...
