Your article is great but just like we are moving deep into 1984, Brave New World territory, a guide book for 'equalization' has also been written.<br /><br />If you think HB can't become reality you haven't been paying attention. You will be made equal one way or another. Kneecapping, frontal lobotomy, whatever it takes.

Not only ...Absolutely spot on analysis, however...<br /><br />Not only do I see the left redefining things like success, gender, etc.. as a way to elevate themselves above others, they also have to tear down the very thing they are competing against.<br /><br />It is not enough to be "transgender." Not being transgender must become a problem. It starts out with a simple message, "Don't discriminate against someone because they are trapped in the wrong gender body." Then it grows into, "if you are a straight man that does not find transgenders attractive, you are a bigot." Pretty soon, it becomes illegal to actually remain your birth sex for your entire life, switching genders will be mandatory.<br /><br />Same with any other trait, talent, or behavior. Want to be loyal to a single spouse, prepared to get vilified. Because not everyone has a happy marriage, NO ONE can have a happy marriage.<br /><br />Leftists believe that they can build themselves up by tearing others down. And, that is a leftist trait that needs to be further explored as you develop this post into a book.CBMTTekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07408004987103862573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8358039.post-54002904697575298332019-01-24T12:27:46.601-08:002019-01-24T12:27:46.601-08:00I believe the copy of Enjoy The Decline I read sai...I believe the copy of Enjoy The Decline I read said don't try until you're in your 30s. ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8358039.post-47659335815308822072019-01-24T09:34:56.353-08:002019-01-24T09:34:56.353-08:00you have to divorce yourself from mass consumerism...<br />you have to divorce yourself from mass consumerism. if you cannot do that, you'll never have freedom. once you can do that, you just have to determine what you want in life. if you want to travel, you can do that and not drop $1,000 a day. you can still have a mcmansion if you want but there's no need to drop 6 figures filing it up.leeholsennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8358039.post-69260355659722449452019-01-24T03:44:34.013-08:002019-01-24T03:44:34.013-08:00That link about Seattle and poo on the side walk i...That link about Seattle and poo on the side walk is amusing and sad at the same time.

I <b>think</b> he meant it as a taunt to the left. HOWEVER, might the left take him up on it? After all, the minimalist citizen is one of the very few not being taxed under most situations.

One is as per Harrison Bergeron by Kurt Vonnegut - a story I'm sure was mentioned to you by TJ or DT on an Older Brother podcast.<br /><br />The other is total immersion virtual reality, where people spend their entire waking lives in there, and ultimately the economy is submerged therein, rendering real world attributes and qualities increasingly meaningless.Alt Londonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09601417656688903206noreply@blogger.com
