State of the Forum: 2023

yeah it's the one where they were told he had a gun three times, his parents went to school with him because of his "acute disability", and he had threatened to kill his teacher before.

Hmmm

I could never imagine a white 6 year old child shooting a teacher, there must be something else going on here

I remembered that Andrew Sullivan had basically put forth the same arguments in the 90s.

Gay marriage also places more responsibilities upon gays: It says for the first time that gay relationships are not better or worse than straight relationships, and that the same is expected of them.

Like straight marriage, it would foster social cohesion, emotional security, and economic prudence.

It would also, in the wake of AIDS, qualify as a genuine public health measure. Those conservatives who deplore promiscuity among some homosexuals should be among the first to support it.

This thread does raise an interesting question: if GAYS are DEGENERATE FREAKS as a result of HATE, why do these "OUTBREAKS" concentrate where there is LITTLE TO NO GAY STIGMA?

I was pretty sure of this as well:

In 2001, it came to light that Sullivan had posted anonymous online advertisements for unprotected anal sex, preferably with "other HIV-positive men". He was widely criticised in the media for this, with some critics noting that he had condemned President Bill Clinton's "incautious behavior", though others wrote in his defence.

Andrew Sullivan is one of those modern day "thinkers" "opinion-havers" who is consistently and vocally wrong about everything. There's a whole group of these types of people on twitter - I have had him blocked there for a long time. Not surprised to hear he's a practicing homosexual in his personal life.

He writes a significant amount of Race and IQ articles now.

"Nothing but wonderful things to say about Super Nintendo World except this: the body size limitations on the Mario Kart ride are absolutely ridiculous. I’ve never had any issue fitting into any ride in my entire life, and I can BARELY fit into this one. Completely absurd," influencer Rocco Botte wrote, blasting the ride's narrow seats on Twitter.

0 credit for this sort of thing. It's always the same pattern - years of being wrong, being obnoxious toward people who are right, writing lots of unbearably smug opinion columns. Arrive late to whatever realization was needed, present a "moderate" view of truth from a "moderate's" perspective (aka still wrong, late, still smug, & stole credit for others' work) community of ■■■■■■■■ readers treats them as profound & renegade opinion-havers for it.

People who are wrong as a personality trait can't stop being wrong by starting to talk about the right things/have some right opinions. Being wrong for them is like an addiction - they slip back into it as soon as the guard is dropped. Even the article with the "right" topic will have random idiotic assumptions leading to wrong conclusions treated as obvious fact, "concessions" based on basic misunderstanding of the topic, and so on.

Best part is these people basically don't exist if you ignore twitter. Best to just block and not allow their thoughts to pollute the mind further.

Other chief offenders:

Matty Glesias
Noah Pinion

Basically anybody who has managed to make a following out of writing "opinion columns" "cultural commentary" "policy pieces" etc. They all spent too much time trying to write their opinions on the internet to have anything worthwhile to say about the real world

Lindy Man falls into this category, he is a straight up ■■■■■■ and so are you if you follow him for anything other than entertainment value

I fucked a girl from twitter who was part of the "Lindy Table." She was funny & interesting only on twitter. Very sad situation

Why haven’t they released the race of the 6 year old shooter or the name/race of the mother?

they spent two weeks claiming it was a white kid but anyone with a brain could come to the correct conclusion after learning the pistol was a Taurus

Would it be different if the pistol was a Virgo

I'm sure they would've if it was the answer you're looking for

I do not say that to give him points or anything; that's just what he does now: that transgender-ism is "homophobia" intent upon "eradicating gays" and race and IQ.

Andrew Sullivan is the reason gay marriage exists: he put forth the "conservative argument" that swayed non-marxoids (who were intent on destroying marriage, the nuclear family, whatever) into normalizing it. Both parties got what they wanted: gays can now get meaninglessly married.

these people are inverse-ben shapiro's: where ben shapiro exists to give you enough of a morsel of reality to keep you from acquiring truly radical beliefs, matt yglesias and the other ■■■ exist to provide intellectual cover to globohomo totalitarianism.

it's rather obvious that mandates, lockdowns, whatever were complete nonsense and were just a punishment upon society by neurotic bureaucrats. yglesias says as much, but this is not a prescription as to what to do next: it's written to erect a facade that there is room for dissent, legitimate analysis, intellectualism in the bureaucratic nu-communism state.

don't post disgusting trash like this on the forum. I have already thought for multiple days about LBJ posting "Makes Group Sex Is Hard" with his carefully framed because he's overweight LinkedIn image in my head. Fucking Disgusting.
