You need to understand what time it is. I can tell you the time to get into knife fights over denominations is well and truly over, and it's been that way for a while. As a Catholic in today's moment in history I'd take a thousand of the wildest Protestants out there rather than a single...

I'd argue the latter is what I'm getting at? Maintaining cohesion is important, and self-destructive purity spirals are just that, self-destructive. To use the incident that spurred this on, Dreher found out someone at a Christian school he was involved with had an anonymous twitter account...

Haywood also argues that the friend/enemy distinction would shift once things change and the Left is rendered powerless. The Right is a big group, not all groups would be compatible with one another. A Big Man Populist and Ben Shapiro have little common ground, after all. I'd argue National...

It's important to remember that a Leftist's word regarding accusations like this? They are worth nothing. And if one still holds these talking points in your heart after all is said and done, one is a Leftist deep down, no?

To try to put it more simply, let's examine two types of Centrist. Those who give a shit about being called Nazis, being lumped in with Nazis, being falsely accused of being Nazis, who are willing to accept accusations of Nazism against other people with the Left's frame. And then there are...

Do you think the constant Leftward drift is a good thing in light of the lack of restraint? Is that enough evidence for you that it was religiously motivated? It really isn't for me. What you consider fringe isn't even a unique idea to you. It's informed by Leftist schools, Leftist ideas...

The problem there is the Center moves, once upon a time Obama was against gay marriage, yes? The Left continues pushing the line more and more more, a lot of people you consider Right today would've been considered wild Progressives in days past. When it gets down to it what is your line in...

Who do you trust with power? You dislike the Left, the "Far-Right" (As defined by the Left), who do you actually trust? And yet I'm actually curious about these more modern examples because you clearly have more to worry about than just Salem happening over again. You're clearly motivated, none...

Can you really blame them when modern society is in the state it's in? A glorious retvrn to the 90's isn't really going to cut it these days, no, there's no actual inoculation against the Equity Cult. Because Salem is only one example, and one that's been used by the Left so often as a cudgel...

There's always been a bad faith side to "Freedom of Religion" where you have groups like the SPLC going to bat for Klan member's freedom of speech but having an utter fit at the idea of religion in public spaces.

You've provided the Salem Witch Trials which is basically puritans being puritans and so old and so divorced from modern religion that it's basically a Leftist talking point to show you're not one of us knuckle dragging believers. You cite prayer in school and I really don't know why you...

And how do you justify this fear? Is it just your grandmother's actions that justify giving religious people/religious laws the stink eye or is there more to it? Is there more than decades old anecdotes? I ask because it's not the Religious Right that's going to dox you. It's not the Religious...

Rubbing hands implies moving that way, no. What I'm discussing here is not exhausting yourself denouncing them loudly and publicly, expecting to be treated any different by the Left. Do you have the Leftist brain worm of "if I don't say anything I'm complicit" or such?

You're not proving me wrong here. If anything I'd expect these talking points from Destiny. Salem Witch Trials, Creationism? Are those your big fears? Are you actually, legitimately afraid of those on your Right? You're acting like you have skin in the game here.

Something I want to mention is the problem of framing. When someone gets pilloried by the Left as a Nazi or the like and you buy into it, or even try to repudiate it by finding all the things that make someone not a Nazi, you're still letting someone set up the frame for you. When...

I was only talking about Rowling, not "Classical Liberals" as a whole. I'll call her a shitlib because despite all the things she's willing to say about trans things, she's still a feminist, still progrssive where it counts, and that vaporizes common ground if she holds those progressive talking...

Can you give me an example of Rowling being based without her opinions on men in dresses? What makes an insult enough to whip out the Neo-Confederate tag anyway? Where did I start yammering about secession or repealing the 13th Amendment or what have you? Explain this. It's an online magazine...

Ideas do not have to be mainstream to be useful or interesting. Who said anything about writing off people to the Left of Rand Paul? Neo-Confederate? If you have something say, say it instead of directing it at Marduk. Did you even bother to read the article or are you just reacting to the...

Then what actually is this, a popularity contest? I offer dissident voices and you just snub them because they don't have Joe Rogan/Tim Pool numbers? Why is this at odds, though? Rowling getting people to see how wild and vicious the They/Them people are is good, yes, but I fail to see how...

Can you give me an example of someone who does matter? Or are you so incurious that you're not willing to go beyond the Daily Wire sphere? Give me something that isn't a bland dismissal. The thing is, the Left does that anyway with anyone. I do mean anyone. Look at JK Rowling. When you cleave...
