I think he’s missing the point of what she’s actually implying when she stated, “In terms of women-led films and women as superheroes in particular, and excitement around that, I think it’s really just about whether or not the movie’s good. […] Especially now we have more and more films that are female-led that are action-based or superhero- based..” Hollywood has pushed female led movies to the detriment of quality […] Read more »
Has the YouTube Content Creator ‘Star Wars Theory’ Changed?
I love the integrity and principled approach to ‘Star Wars Theory’s’ content. The one thing I think most people miss is that the underlying worldview and philosophy of George Lucas’s Star Wars was inverted 180 degrees by Disney’s Star Wars after their purchase of the intellectual property, as it went from the Logocentric monomyth (Hero’s Journey), aka the search for meaning and purpose, to a deconstructionist and postmodern approach of […] Read more »
Twitter and the Reign of Chaos
Twitter is a great place to “cherry pick” from, as well as to employ the “biased sample” fallacy. See the following video to see how these fallacies are used to manipulate the masses, to justify a malicious course of action, and to claim somebody or some group is a victim, when in reality they are not. “Cherry picking, suppressing evidence, or the fallacy of incomplete evidence is the act of […] Read more »
Intellectual Self-Defense and the Four Circuits of Being
There are four primary circuits of being, and each circuit transcends yet includes previous circuits. physical → emotional → rational → moral A moral person has fully incorporated their rational, emotional, and physical states of being. The emotional transcends and includes the physical, the rational transcends and includes the emotional and physical, and the moral transcends and includes the rational, emotional, and physical states of being. A moral being is […] Read more »
Almost Every Major Franchise is Compromised
“Moreover, it’s important to keep in mind, that for the people pushing all of this politically correct stuff, their ideology comes first. Hollywood and their benefactors have very deep pockets and they can afford to lose money. Money is a secondary concern, wokeness and a left wing political agenda matters more to the people who are pushing it. Social engineering of the populace through mass media is their primary objective, […] Read more »
The Importance of Proper Communication
One thing that I often notice in my correspondences with people is the lack of substance and detail in their writing. For instance, they do not define their terms when such terms may have many meanings (such as “unity” or “liberal”), they do not answer possible questions a reader might have within the body of their text, for example they are not clear or precise, they may not ensure accuracy, […] Read more »
The Left’s Use of Name Calling as a Means of Getting Their Way
I often get reduced to a homophobe, bigot, or transphobe because I oppose agenda driven manipulation of the LGBTQ lifestyle for political gain. There is a quote from Frederic Bastiat, in his pamphlet “The Law” that pertains to this reductionist strawmanning of nuanced thinkers, where he states that: Socialism, like the ancient ideas from which it springs, confuses the distinction between government and society. As a result of this, every […] Read more »
Miniature Authoritarians & their Obsession with Compassion
Be aware that love, compassion, health, and respect are the main reasons for using force against you and all individuals who do not agree with the various flavors of authoritarian beliefs out there. Such people quite enjoy using their perceived sense of power, whether it stems from being in the majority, or from being in an actual position of power, to compel you to bend to their will. They’ll even […] Read more »
A Guide to Leftist Fallacies
I would add the strawman fallacy, as well as the single cause fallacy. The strawman is because they misrepresent arguments often, and even repeat the strawman ad nauseam, and the single cause fallacy is because they constantly reduce complex and nuanced arguments to simple arguments (giving multilogical problems monological solutions). They even combine these two fallacies by turning them into an ad hominem by reducing the character of the person […] Read more »
Control the Words, Control the Culture
Words are magic, and their meanings incredibly important. The conflation and distortion of words, also known as newspeak and doublespeak, is the primary weapon of Leftist’s in their war on Western culture and identity. Becoming aware of the power found within our words, to either create or subvert, is an important step in reclaiming our personal sovereignty. The culture war is first and foremost a war of words – and […] Read more »
Support Gun Control You Child Hating Bigot!!
This nails pretty much every half-baked and hair brained illogical argument I’ve heard on the subject of gun control. There isn’t a single logical argument that they even attempt to make, as all they use are bullying tactics and emotionally charged rhetoric. I will not enter into an honest discussion with purposefully ignorant people, but I will set boundaries and live the life I choose, regardless of what they say […] Read more »
Socratic Questioning vs Sophistry
There are two main ways to have a debate, one is to view it as a power struggle to be won, and the second is to see it as an opportunity to progress and grow. The sophists in ancient Greece would use “the tools of philosophy and rhetoric to entertain, impress, or persuade an audience to accept the speaker’s point of view,” as a means of winning an argumentative power […] Read more »
Gradualism and the Fabian Society
I would like to discuss a major issue that I have with the coordinated effort that is taking place worldwide to confuse gender, especially within what is known as identity politics, but is also found in things such as “net neutrality”, the Syrian refugee crisis, Trump’s “wall”, and a myriad of other hot button topics that seem to pass over our television screen in a coordinated method. To the surprise […] Read more »
Why I seem to Align more with the Political Right than with the Political Left
I would like to make something clear, not because I’ve been questioned, but because I feel it is worth addressing. Many people may think that I’m on the political right, but I’m not, I am a classical liberal (voluntaryist / ancap / Libertarian), which means I value individual rights, and I’m open to a wide range of viewpoints, and I synthesize them with systematic thinking into an overall worldview that […] Read more »
Tim Allen Fired by ABC for Exposing Hollywood’s Liberal Insanity
It sounds like another Hegelian dialectic of divide and conquer, as the mere fact that the show’s writers were putting in things such as “micro aggressions” in their scripts would not have been allowed unless it was to set up the show’s cancellation as a politically motivated “hit job”. It would have been far more credible in my eyes if the show’s writing wasn’t already conservative, because the cancellation would […] Read more »
