In the Year 2525…
Master Chief will need every bit of that technology in 2552.
Make no mistake about it, Democrats have been wildly successful in the expansion of the religious cult of the dialectic, now called “Democratic Socialism”.
They truly believe in the cult, even though not a single one of these religious zealots will ever look at the situation that way. Nobody who is in a cult ever does. This is a couple hours south of me, but these are the same people who hold political power in Maine.
I doubt many, if any, transgender people know what this means.
The opposite is true. Every single transgender adult I know in Maine are open Democratic Socialists. To be led into transgenderism requires a great deal of exposure to every other aspect of DSA ideology.
Particularly disturbing is that Maine’s kids don’t want it, either. While our school boards are filled with people who believe Trump voters are Nazis, 52 percent of Maine public school students voted for Trump in the mock election.
Don’t think for one minute that isn’t seen as a problem that needs to be corrected.
A deep understanding of political philosophy is unnecessary to have a visceral reaction to all of this. Kids can naturally infer based on their own conceptions of right and wrong.
This all comes wrapped up in language of inclusion, fairness and lots of cosmetics, both literal and figurative.

Ukraine peace talks are also underway.
The search term “Criminal Defense Lawyer” is seeing a massive spike in the Washington, D.C. metro area.
As if by premonition, the day after I mention 9/11 on these forums for the first time, 9/11 is getting a second look, along with high profile assassinations.
Democrats are hard at work making people believe that this appears foul beyond all that is decent, when to me it all feels quite fair.

Feminism is at the root of it. They chose the ideologies that best support their goals.

Nope. It is the dialectic at the root of the rot, and some would argue that beneath that lies a theological conflict. The dialectic is how modern feminism has talked itself into all of the contradictory positions it now holds.
First wave feminism is perfectly compatible with a constitutional republic operating in a free market and the concept of equal protection under the law. It was about equality.
Every wave since has been more and more oriented towards social justice, not justice.

And they chose the ideology that they believed would best achieve that. They were feminists before they were Marxists.

Nope.
First wave feminism was not an ideology, unless you consider the concept of equality to be ideological in nature.
The cult of the dialectic saw an opportunity to co-opt a popular concept and twist it into yet another instrument of power and control by promising social justice.
This is similar to what happened to the gay rights movement. Getting sodomy laws off the books was about equality. So was allowing gays in the military, although that’s a bit different as there are many arguments for all kinds of unequal treatment with military recruitment standards.
The cult of the dialectic saw an opportunity to co-opt yet another popular movement, and twist it into an instrument of power and control, once again going from the idea of justice to social justice.
Transgenderism is its own thing and generally independent of homosexuality and bisexuality, but this contradiction can be explained away and they have successfully incorporated a whole separate ideology into their tent of ideas.
They come for EVERYTHING. Even Tolkien.

Isn’t this what all of the waves are about? The sexes aren’t equal. “We would like equal access to everything you guys provide along with protection; in exchange, we will trade nothing.” That sounds silly.
Feminism has ALWAYS been bullshit. Making women compete with trannies, and declare themselves eligible for the draft, etc. make Feminism more sensible, if anything.
Indeed. But you have to recognize “they”began a long time ago.
Edit: Feminism is another one of those things, along with “racism,” which “Trump voters”(I’ll use that term instead of “conservative” or any other term, since he brought along some Democrats and people who didn’t identify as conservative-and it’s not really a precise term anyway) need to strip of its power. Folding to either of them is just going along with the opponent, even if the pace is slightly slower.

There is that argument against first wave feminism, but both sides of that argument are compatible with our broader system on their own. Neither side was about delivering social justice, but rather different conceptions of justice.
As you alluded to this still leaves us with a matter of inequality. Eliminating any mention of sex from the selective service act would get us there in 2025.
The dialectic can also be viewed as the deliberate introduction of incompatible ideas, as that is what has always been the result.
As far as when “they” began, the best explanation I’ve had laid out to me traces back through Hegel and many other philosophers, eventually landing on Orphism as the “source”.
From the article we can find the common denominator Orphism shares with the dialectic. Secret knowledge unobtainable by those who don’t practice the religion.
They believed themselves, in this way, to acquire mystic knowledge not obtainable by ordinary means.

Ukraine peace talks = US is basically saying now that Russia can keep the country. Trump excels in one sided deals (like the ”very succesful” palestinian-Israel -agreement from couple years ago).
This is a prime example for Putin that western democracies are weak and lack the stamina for any policies that actually need some long time effort (just look how well the enviromental policies tend to work out).
It’s the basic nimby-thing: ”I don’t care who is getting killed pr tortured, as long as my bills stay low.”
I’m not certain that I can identify where social justice begins but, if the above is correct(and I assume it is, since it’s from a University at which social justice is probably a big deal), it definitely looks like the First Wave Feminists shared a lot with today’s SJWs.

As opposed to us taking it? Was that on the table?
What happened to Zelensky? Wasn’t he single-handedly whipping Russia with-one-hand-tied-behind-his-back a year or two ago? The great conquering comedian now needs help(I’m well aware he was always getting tons of help, but it wasn’t presented that way)?

Opposed of being independent country. I have no insight of actual negotiations of course (none of us have), but with the current POTUS and Nato -statements it looks like game over for Ukraine.
Zelensky handled the media war well, and it was easy to have sympathy as an underdog. Now west has gotten bored and will sacrifice Ukraine to imperialists.
Any random SJW is typically a maladjusted societal reject. They’re angry and bitter and wish others to be, too… and it’s a revenge game for them

At least according the channels I watch, it appears to be a Russian bloodbath, with. Ukraine advancing by leaps daily.
It looks like Putin pulled the rug out from under his own troops in the last few weeks.
Maybe you’re privy to other info?
I think after this war, there should be a new name for using low lying flat ground to funnel the enemy into a death trap as they drive straight into your artillery.

Always have been, as far as I can tell. They lost the game of nature and are hoping to compensate via political action.
