The problem with "multiculturalism" isn't just that it's bad policy. It's that it's an inherent contradiction. Culture isn't just an aesthetic. Broadly speaking, culture is how groups of people have learned to cooperate. In other words, the most important manifestations of culture are how people interact with one another. In order for culture to function effectively, it must be shared, because there must be conventions. The more distant two cultures are from each other, the fewer conventions they share, and the more difficult it becomes for them to interact, communicate, and cooperate. The only remedy for this so far has been to sand away the uniqueness of each culture and reduce them all to the least common denominator. If the jigsaw pieces don't fit together, sand them all down until they're uniform squares. Multiculturalism, then, isn't the enrichment of culture, but its destruction.

Evil detests beauty because beauty is proof of a transcendental order, of objective Goodness and Truth. To attack beauty is to wage war against the possibility of transcendence. Beauty is a great affront to nihilism. It testifies to that which is greater than the individual, because to create a beautiful thing is to acknowledge that you are answerable to standards higher than your own. Beauty is often called a great evangelist for this reason. This is why they outright destroy beauty or try to subvert your perception of it by promoting ugliness or triviality. Beauty is neither neutral nor trivial — your ability to discern the beautiful from the ugly is intimately connected to your capacity to recognize the divine. Dietrich von Hildebrand once declared that "beauty is the archenemy of mediocrity." Why? Beauty elevates a person toward truth, goodness, and the divine. The antitheses to beauty drag the soul down into nihilism and worship of the self.

Lost in all this debate is the undeniable fact that if France was just a little bit more socialist everyone would be happy and there would be no protests.

J’ai entendu dire que la France était finie, qu’il était trop tard pour la sauver. Mais la France est toujours aussi belle, enviable même. Sa grandeur n’a pas disparu, elle ne demande qu’à renaître. Nous avons surmonté en un an un problème cent fois plus grave, sans avoir les moyens dont dispose la France. La France pourrait y arriver en une semaine.

In order to "stop this madness" you will need a level of brutality that is at least 1000 times the execution of Nidal Hasan that you told the media you wouldn't watch Words are cheap and when your resolve was tested, you capitulated to "people" who fantasize about killing you

Western liberals imported the third world into France and other countries in the name of diversity and compassion. They ignored fundamental questions of assimilation and compatibility. They were told it would lead to this and they didn't listen. I pray that France, a beautiful country of amazing people, will stop this madness before more of its landmarks burn. And I hope Americans are paying attention. This is the future congressional Democrats seek for your country.

When Shane Gillis said women "dress like whores" at the gym, he was hitting their status from two angles: 1. That they are dressed immodestly, which is low status in more conservative worldviews 2. That they are calibrating their appearance for male sexual attention, which is low status in feminist/progressive worldviews Many women, being acutely sensitive to status signaling, were upset. Problem is, Shane Gillis was obviously telling the truth. Manufacturers explicitly advertise the fact that this type of wear lifts the butt. Reviewers explicitly praise how it flatters their assets. That is literally what is being sold and what is being bought. The gym is a place where there is some social permission to dress revealingly. It's also somewhere you're more likely to find fit, active men. So women have both permission and motivation to compete for male attention there. And the fact that such intrasexual competition is taking place there was simply recognized by gymwear companies who began manufacturing "Lycra scrunch butt lifting shorts" (their name, not mine). This isn't a mystery. It shouldn't even be a debate that a primary reason for wearing these is to get male attention. But since that's "low status" to admit, a lot of women just lie about it, and Gillis becomes the bad guy for telling the truth (and being both funny and self-deprecating while he did it).

NORWAY: According to recently released police figures, ALL reported rapes in Oslo over the last three years were committed by non-Western immigrants. Not 20% or even 50%. But 100% of rapes. Let that sink in. Europe is committing suicide.

Librarian glasses with beaded/ornamented lanyards are now a formal component of the FtM uniform. This is detailed in §104-(a) of the LGBTQIAA2+ Code of Standards and Conduct. All individuals rebelling against oppressive gender roles and social constructs are advised that uniform standards are actively enforced and failing to present appropriately will result in loss of privileges or membership.

The illegal alien that put Carissa in a wheelchair for the rest of her life has been deported. Deportation is NOT justice for what was done to my daughter. It is the lawful consequence of entering our country illegally. Crashing into Carissa and launching her head first into a concrete barrier at 50 mph was how she got caught, hours later, after the driver initially fled. Valeria Bermudez Marcano has never and likely will never serve any kind of punishment for ending the life Carissa was building for herself. Five charges were dropped down to class 5 felony. Under Colorado’s sanctuary laws, local law enforcement officers face potential disciplinary consequences and civil penalties of up to $50,000 for certain violations involving cooperation with federal immigration enforcement. Even though Valeria is now a convicted felon. Local law enforcement officers would not be able to simply detain her on a civil ICE detainer. Their ability to assist federal immigration enforcement is restricted by state law. Currently, VOICE (Victims of Illegal Crime Engagement) is set up to notify our family should she ever return. But that is only in effect as long as the sitting President maintains VOICE. Biden tried to dismantle it once already. This is the real world application of sanctuary policies where illegal aliens, who repeatedly ignore our laws, are protected over our citizens. Enough is enough. My family is not the only Colorado Angel Family. You can stop this with your vote. Not one more. Vote red. Vote yes on 81.

I work at a mid-sized tech company based in the US. In 2023, they fired half our development team and replaced them with Indians in India. While hiring, they had candidates who were paying other people to do interviews for them, in one case one was hired and a completely different Indian woman from the one who was interviewed showed up. Fast forward a couple of years, the quality of the product is falling off a cliff. The Indians are completely incapable of even the most basic code implementations. My team literally gives them the front-end code, and recently I discovered that instead of taking our front-end code, they've been taking screenshots of our UI and pasting them into Claude Code and having the AI recreate the UI from scratch. The problem is, we already wrote the code for the UI, all they had to do was copy it. Now, they are essentially vibecoding the entire product and creating technical debt that will already take 6+ months to resolve. I had to train a "Senior Application Developer" how to resize a browser window, some of my Indian coworkers will seemingly take my messages in Teams, put them into Claude, and copy and paste the response back to me. Senior leadership is seemingly totally unaware of the state of what's happening, and continues to "laud" the "move to an offshore model" as a great success.

If a woman is on OnlyFans, there are a few things I automatically know about her: 1. Her values system is very different from mine, if she has any values at all 2. She probably exhibits high time preference, since the social cost of doing OnlyFans shows up long after the paychecks do 3. She probably therefore does not often consider second-order effects in her thinking 4. If she has considered the social costs, she likely defends her choice by claiming that it's arbitrary and shouldn't happen, which is childish thinking So no, I'm not going to value the opinion of an OF creator anytime soon.
Telling an OF creator their opinion isn’t valuable because they have an OF isn’t an intelligent or even funny argument. It’s so lame, it’s embarrassing.

Democrats are just traitors. That's all. They're just traitors.
NEW: Rep. Delia Ramirez (D-IL) has just introduced her new legislation that would completely dismantle DHS, abolish ICE, and replace it with the “Department of Community Safety”. The bill would also abolish CBP, which means getting rid of Border Patrol & customs officers at ports of entry at land borders, airports, and sea ports. This would result in completely open borders with no federal agency left to screen or detain people coming into the country both legally and illegally. Details on the “Reimagining Safety Act” from Rep. Ramirez’s press release:
