Yes but it's very minimal. Very selfish to expect others to pay for your wrongs. And this is supported by people who often champion "personal responsibility". -

Why do you want others to pay for your sins? Just learn the price of sin, and pay or don't pay. -
Yikes that's way too many channels to watch. Go read some books, like Heather Cox Richardson's How the South won the Civil War

People saying she faked her forgiveness ritual and people who say it was genuine are both wrong, because it was both. -

Ive seen an uptick in people saying transphobic things. People talking about trans people like they're a different species not realizing they're talking to one of them. It's quite depressing. -

That word "vehicle" really does stick out like a sore thumb for a 22yo. Hard to say for sure, that's what I hate about this FBI the most. Can't trust them. -

Fortunately I became more interested in men after switching from testosterone injections to estrogen cream. And lost my sparse distorted (I use this term in reference to my self perception of it) sexual attraction to women. So I am actually less likely to invade women's privacy than before transitioning. Any ban on an entire class of people is wrong. If the fair play guidelines for women's sports excludes a few cis women so be it. There's people who are intersex and never went through puberty. Use something like those as guidelines because I never completed my normal male puberty due to my genetic disorder. Some of the girls were beating me in cross country races. By two or three minutes. I was doing everything my brothers were doing (they were near the top of mens' records) and finishing every race trying hard. But, hormones I guess. I had 10x less testosterone than cisgender women and I was born with XY chromosomes. So yeah, I'm going to say that hormones can determine athletic performance. -

Can you find something similar on left wing media? -

He very well could have been a leftist. But still you do not grow up around that many guns and be a more stereotypical leftist like you'd find in Seattle -+ which is what he could be painted as. It just won't happen in Utah. The whole discourse is so annoyingly overly simplistic. -

His classmate in high school supposedly say his political views diverged widely from his family. His friend could have lied for him so they'd blame the left more, he still could have been an accelerationist. Hard to say for sure, we rarely get the full picture on these sorts of people. -

Utah is such a crazy state. I know the shooter could have a mix of political beliefs but when I go to Utah it's just full of these conservative types, it's just such a bizarre place to be. -

That's the most generic name ever. -

Do you think there is any chance at all the shooter was a Russian agent meant to stir up chaos in the U.S? That could possibly be the 'best' case scenario? -

I remember reading about a trans girl on a bridge somewhere stating that she wanted to end her life. And after encouraging her to kill herself, the rednecks, nazis, and incels all actually went to the last place she was seen and put a soyjack piece of paper near where she was last seen to make fun of her. These people were all brainwashed by people like Kirk, and that happens throughout the country. It's hard to not feel a little happy Kirk died, that's why I came back to this site. I never forgot this at least, not sure how it mattered though. -

Everyone has the right and obligation to "transition" from life to death -

In the military, people are more amenable to mantras like "Make America Great Again", you need a unifying creed said over and over again to encourage people to engage in drone-like violence. -
I won't say much but this was one of the dumbest pictures I had to see.

In Vegas twelve year old kids can do whatever scandalous thing they want in the middle of the night and the cops can stand right next to them and they won't tell them "shoo". It's kind of harsh to judge all women based on such a depraved city...but on the other hand there are tons of depraved cities like Vegas, just perhaps with less American gluttony.

Devil's argument : "The culture is so shallow, neurotic and dopamine driven that it's rare for a woman, especially an attractive one, to learn how to take it slow - and they can feel magnetically drawn to quick fixes. So they go to a club " But I generally agree ( I think the above argument would be an oversimplification. )

Thank you for writing this. It was on the back of my mind too, and it made me think of the Wheel of Time books.. I think there's a funny scene somewhere In The Shadow Rising where the men and women in a group both think they have exclusive access to a secret -- they even call each other silly and stupid for not knowing the secret -- not knowing that the people of the other gender knows the exact same thing. Yet the entire series also affirms the very differences between the masculine and the feminine.

I made my comparisons based on me having Kallmann Syndrome, so originally I took testosterone medicine enough for a male for some months. Then I switched to estrogen and progesterone as my primary hormones. I saw at least a glimpse of the way women viewed the world and framed it in a deadpan way where I knew they were doing things but not really why. Now when I feel the feminine perspective more acutely and personally I can view it as part of a greater whole in some way, because I can still remember looking through a kind of gray window at it when I was much younger. I guess the projections of how I viewed the past were influenced by society, but I also feel like there are genuine differences that society didn't make up out of nowhere. Maybe you can call hormones shallow but to me they weren't.

You already made him your king by willing to throw beauty, dignity & decorum under the bus for a potential political victory. Look, I don't expect posters with flowers to immediately win political battles. I understand the desire to be as vulgar as possible. But at least for me, I cannot live with the vulgarity. I urge you to think about the philosophy of beauty..aesthetics. I don't expect the culture to self-regulate its urge to insult others, but think critically of how you oppose Trump because I guarantee you it's polluting your soul more than you think. And then what's the point of winning such a war? There are still more dignified ways to protest and I will be searching for them when I do protest.
