In Minneapolis, a city councilwoman explains that calling the police when your house is broken into comes from a place of privilege.
Implied definition of equality here is *no one* being able to call the cops when someone breaks into his or her home.
That this woman has any say over the life of a major American city is deeply disturbing. https://t.co/QdHOhBqzCC

Meanwhile, in increasingly utopian San Diego, which had the lowest murder rate of the 50 big cities in the U.S. in 2017, 1/27th the rate of St. Louis, the city council has voted to boost the police budget by hundreds of millions.
Relative to each other, which city do you expect to have a rising homicide rate and/or falling home values?
The especially sad thing about Minneapolis was that it probably the most successful big city in the Midwest in recent years.
San Diego? Yes, a fairly pleasant town with perfect weather.
It’s called the “Lot” effect, I believe.
Read up on Lisa Bender if you haven’t. She’s a SJW straight out of Central Casting.
They have made their own bed up there. I hope they follow through.
Typical comment from a “respectable” conservative, that is a fake one. Of course, they only care about WHITE people trying to defend themselves.
But Rich Lowry gets paid to pretend there’s no such thing as an anti-White agenda.
As far as Minneapolis is concerned, the White liberals there worked decades for these policies. And the “moderates” didn’t stand up to them. They’re getting what they deserve.
White liberals are leading many changes across the US, Europe, Canada, and Australia. Everyone who lives in those nations will be impacted regardless of their political preferences.
This crowd should live your lives as best as you can, build your legacies as best you can, and preserve the past that you care about in whatever way that you can. And sure, try to fight the culture war too, if you can.

Yes, Trump , with little support from his party and relentless, traitorous subversion from the opposition, has not done as much as we would like.

Over the past few years “urbex” videos have been very popular on youtube and other places.
Many urban explorers visit once grand theaters and hotels in places like Detroit that are now in the process of going back to nature, helped by the kinds of people who moved into the neighborhood.
I don’t know if these videos have imprinted anything in my subconscious, but it is with a deep and profound sense of sadness and loss that I watch some of the videos of the rioting and looting.
Sad, yeah.

If someone were to gently put some “Its okay to be white” flyers in her mailbox, I wonder if she would call the police first or the FBI?
“calling the police when your house is broken into comes from a place of privilege.”
Well, Wittgenstein would point out that she is technically correct: if you have stuff in your house that is valuable enough to be worth stealing (hence the burglary), then you have a pronounced value-differential relative to the thieves; hence your home, where the phone call is originating from, is literally a place of privilege.
Now you know why nobody ever made Wittgenstein the chief of police.
“calling the police when your house is broken into comes from a place of privilege.” is therefore incorrect -- anybody can call the police to report a burglary. If the burglar (or shoplifters) were only subject to law enforcement if they stole more they a certain amount, the burglar (or shoplifters) would be "privileged" in the original meaning.Replies: @The Germ Theory of Disease, @njguy73

I have family in Missouri and lived there at different times in the 60 and 70s. A branch of the family lived in Wisconsin and Minnesota. Missouri was settled by scots Irish and germans and was 10 percent black, a slave state but not in the cotton belt. Small town minnesota was nearly 100 percent german and Scandanivian, the radio played polka beer songs and no C and W like in Missouri. As late as 1970 there were no minorities to speak of in Minnesota. When the Minnesotans talked about Missouri they wondered why blacks were treated so bad, never like a southerner who would say the blacks acted bad. Any minority in Minnesota was treated like their pet monkey, the town all knew them and wanted to be their friend. They could not understand why it was different in Missouri.
Minnesotans have no history of dealing with minorities and so have no fear, feel no need to protect themselves.
Sandiego understands how to live in a multiracial society because it has experience, Minnesota has none.

Wittgenstein was tough & although he played language games- he never lost a sense of reality.
Could this crazy woman have the guts to do what Ludwig had done in WW1? A passage from Paul Johnson’s “Heroes”:
I doubt it.
Also wielded a mean poker, at least according to Popper.
The next year, 1914, we are supposed to believe one of the richest gay men in Europe volunteered for the Austrian army. Yeah, I bet he did. We are told almost nothing of his first two years as a soldier, but then we are told that in 1916 he was on the Russian front, where he allegedly fought against British troops, and was awarded many medals. He was finally promoted to lieutenant in 1918, so we are supposed believe he was a private from 1914 to 1918? Oy vey. We are then supposed to believe he took military leave in summer of 1918, retiring to his summer house in Vienna to complete the Tractatus. Yeah, that makes sense. You get promoted to lieutenant near the end of the war, during the heaviest fighting, and they immediately send you home to work on your famous book? And you have no problem concentrating on that book after almost four years of being in the army, in the worst war of all time?
After giving his book to the publisher, in October Wittgenstein was sent back to the front and was
allegedly captured by the Allies in Trentino. We are supposed to believe the richest man in Austria
then spent nine months in an Italian concentration camp. I guess his bunkmate was Andrew Carnegie.
I was aware Wittgenstein had fought in WWI, but the exact nature of his duty had hitherto been unknown to me. Now that I do know, I can't say I am surprised: anyone with even a cursory knowledge of his life will tell you Wittgenstein never did anything by half measures.
If nothing else, I doubt if his companions ever suffered a moment's boredom when he was around. I would give a great deal to have known him, not for his intellect, but for the sheer intensity of his personality (though I expect you had to be quite careful not to let him wear you out).

Wittgenstein would have read iSteve, although possibly in a Jack D-like state of racial indignation. He was a technically minded guy who spent wwii making gadgets for the British and was obsessed with pulp fiction. He also angered peacenik America-hater Russell to the point he wanted to beat him up. Great guy.
Wittgenstein had some amazing autistic traits. For example, if you invited him to visit for a week, he’d insist that whatever you fed him for his first meal — pheasant under glass or a peanut butter sandwich — you must feed him for the remaining 20 meals.
I read an article about him in National Review in the 1970s that was quite memorable about his personality.

Wittgenstein is called often the "Man Who Killed Philosophy". In his Tractatus, Wittgenstein proposes that all philosophical questions actually result from the misuse of language. According to Wittgenstein, Reality is made of small, completely independent facts that interact to create larger facts that have only transitory and contextual meaning. Wittgenstein called these "atomistic facts". They result from axiomatic, infallible premises that are not language-based. In mathematics, all facts are atomistic facts, and all amthematical facts follow logically from axioms. In physics, too, but physics language starts to aply a confusing part, which is why physicists try their best to express physical truths in mathematical form and only result to phrasal definitions when the mathematics cannot describe it entirely.
But, in philosophy, language plays a preponderant role. According to Wittgenstein, the true meaning of a sentence, definition or word is it's use. Words play in language the same role as numbers in mathematics; unlike in mathematics, where all numbers are axiomatically derived from the acceptance of the number "1" as the basic fundamental construct of all math, words exist as completely separate entities. Not only do they have multiple meanings in many case, the combination of these separate entities into sentences, definitions and statements result in multiple defering interpretations. Language is not a tool for elucidation of derivative facts that follow logically from axioms; rather, they are flexible definitions that serve the function of allowing people to "paint pictures" of reality as they see it. Language is a tool that social primates use to distort and manipulate facts to their own liking. Hence, there are mathematical facts and mathematical proofs, and physics problems and physical facts that are demonstrable by falsifiable tests. But there are no genuine philosophical problems. Hence, the same philosophical problems are debated since the time of Plato for twenty five centuries, just like a fly traped in a jab without a lid will eternally try to get out by flying to all sides, instead of just flying up.
Wittgensetein's "Tractatus" is considered by many to be the single most brilliant work in philosophy since the formalization of logic by Aristotle 2,300 years ago. Philosophers themselves are divided: some worship Wittgenstein for having finally resolved so much confusion, but others resent him as having made phislophy largely redundant.
Wittgenstein was a very idiosyncractic and fascinating personality. He was a homosexual(actually bisexual, but whatever), but he had many stereotypical masculine concerns, such as a desire to find patterns in the World and a tendency towards obsessivness. Also, unlike most of these type of man, who usually tend be cowardly, Wittgenstein had the heart of a lion. He fought in WWI, where he was condecorated multiple times for his bravery. Wittgenstein was an extremly tough and brave man, which is unusal in intellectual types.
Wittgenstein also became notorious for his romantic failures and sexual frustration. He often fell in love with teenaged boys that couldn't care less about him. He often had multiple affairs with women, although he never developed any romantic affection for a woman.
Conservatives often dislike Wittgenstein both for him homsosexual/bisexual, but also because Wittgenstein ridiculed religion often. Wittgenstein wrote:
"At the heart of every rligion there is the child, the child always, looking for a father to protect him from the dastardly nature of reality, which doesn't care about human beings and their problems."
Wittgenstein suggested that Nietzsche's Overman might not be necessarily a Superior Man(like Wittgenstein obviously was), but simply a true *adult" that accepts that this life is the only one we will ever have, and that in a God-less Universe where physicality is all there is and morality is an exclusively human concern, it is up to humans to decide their own morality based on facts, logic and empathy, without having any sort of higher authority to admonis or reward them for their moral choices.Replies: @Anonymous

If the valuable stuff is gone, one might argue that it is no longer a place of privilege. But let us assume some possessions of privilege still remain. In this event, you must call the police from outside your home. Case closed!
The other notoriously, hilariously annoying literary houseguest was Hans Christian Anderson, oddly enough. Apparently in real life he was a giant a$$hole.

What I find most interesting is what you could still say even in 1991.
“Some black people feel the Koreans are a merchant class who take advantage of black communities”. You already couldn’t say that about Jews but could still say about Koreans in 1991. Then having a map with “Los Angeles Black Community” mapped out. The question, if you had honest discussion of ethnic conflict like this today, would it help or hurt things?
The reality is the people most likely to have a genuine hatred of black people are immigrants is something the elite needs to be hammered with because black twitter won’t let it just be swept away when they try to make it go away.
Though even in 1991, the narrative still forced the line “Racism is not the Korean killing her, racism is the court system allowing her to kill her”. Stay on target.
An an aside, now would be a great time for somebody with a script for an OJ style LA riots miniseries.

I think it would be a good move for Texas to trade El Paso County to California for San Diego County. EPC is more Democrat and more Latino so it would fit in better in Cali, and SDC is actually more conservative and friendly to the military, which is a better fit for Texas. As a bonus, the move would give Texas a Pacific beach and comparative cooler vacation spot to visit without patronizing Californians. And Californians could visit El Paso for more diversity vibrancy. Just a thought.
There is no state income tax in El Paso county (or Texas) so that would boost shopping there from Cali. Oddly enough they brag in El Paso that it is quicker to drive to San Diego from there than to Austin, Houston or Dallas. Probably true depending on the AZ traffic cops.
But El Paso is also heavily military. Fort Bliss is the largest US training base. Just up north across the border in NM is the White Sands Test Range. Lots of brainy military types there, and also Holloman AFB adjacent in Alamogordo NM (drones & stealth).

Moldbug’s observation that the common progressive refrain- “well, my intentions were good”- when they walk away from the smoking crater of their latest little experiment (whether it’s right-to-protect in Libya, or- shortly- “re-imagining” law enforcement in Minneapolis) demonstrates a complete lack of human affect and puts the lie to their self-proclaimed humanitarianism. If Power really cared about people, she’d spend the rest of her life atoning for the misery she brought to the people of Libya, not clawing for more money and power. If these BLM activists really care about black lives, they’ll spend the rest of their lives trying to mend the human catastrophe they are about to unleash, with neighborhoods ruined and an incremental body count sure to be in the (10’s? of)1000’s after BLM 2.0 burns itself out.

I’m sure the city that disbanded the police did so in hopes of appeasing protesters. Most cities today are bankrupt anyway and they probably can’t afford to fix the city, pay police (especially those now injured or pay outs to family if they were killed) and pay when Floyd’s family sues which is usually what these protests amount to, a big payday.

The problem with police isn’t that they help people when needed, the problem is they work for the mayors and councils as money collectors (tickets) business shake down artists, there is the FBI for that.

I lived in San Diego for twelve years, and it quickly became obvious that the police had to be a force to be reckoned with as they’re hemmed in on all four sides – Pacific Ocean to the west, Mexico to the South, real-estate-unfriendly mountains to the east and super rich NIMBY’s (La Jolla, Del Mar, etc. – “Don’t come up here!”) to the north.
While I lived there (1994 to about 2006) crime pretty much just sat in that foursquare basin, concentrated mostly around lower east Chula Vista, south of downtown and a little bit east in ‘Shelltown’ (the Shell gas station off the I-5, where lots of blacks live). But the SDPD were very proactive, responsive and not at all loathe to overwhelm any incident with superior numbers.
One of the commenters above was right. Newly jumped-over Mexicans didn’t stay in SD (at least they didn’t while I was there) but got trafficked up through Escondido and San Clemente to all points north and east. For some reason they believe that the US Border Patrol has clairvoyant powers and can find them within a few miles of the fence.
It was a very pleasant place to live; surfing was great and you had to be super awkward to not find a very friendly SoCal girl, but as with everywhere else in CA, it was super expensive to get in to a decent neighborhood. “Cool Story Bro” story: In 1994 I had a chance at purchasing half a house on North Island, just up the street from the Coronado Island Hotel, but I declined as I didn’t think I’d be employed with my then-employer for very long. I regret that decision to this day.

yes, I agree totally, even the liberals in Sandiego know they dont want to live in tijuana. They also grew up near Mexican barrios in the USA and knew they needed the police.
I have family in Missouri and lived there at different times in the 60 and 70s. A branch of the family lived in Wisconsin and Minnesota. Missouri was settled by scots Irish and germans and was 10 percent black, a slave state but not in the cotton belt. Small town minnesota was nearly 100 percent german and Scandanivian, the radio played polka beer songs and no C and W like in Missouri. As late as 1970 there were no minorities to speak of in Minnesota. When the Minnesotans talked about Missouri they wondered why blacks were treated so bad, never like a southerner who would say the blacks acted bad. Any minority in Minnesota was treated like their pet monkey, the town all knew them and wanted to be their friend. They could not understand why it was different in Missouri.
Minnesotans have no history of dealing with minorities and so have no fear, feel no need to protect themselves.
Sandiego understands how to live in a multiracial society because it has experience, Minnesota has none.
No. It’s been one of the last places American black people chose to settle in. Except when immigrants are dumped there.
Thanks to Obama, there’s a little community of Congolese in their suburbs. A few years ago, one of them went into a juju trance, and was dancing in the middle of a busy street, waving a small piece of wood. Police came, the Congolese wave his magic wood at them, the police assumed it was a gun, and shot him dead. The Congolese, with the help of “community organizers,” staged a protest, but it being San Diego, and social media not being an effective rioting tool yet, it petered out. Nobody really cared but the Congolese, and their community witch doctors.
Outside of that, there still isn’t a significant number of blacks there.
Thanks to the Current power of social media, if that happened now, there would be a riot, led by Nancy Pelosi in a grass skirt, her eyes rolled up into the back of her head, and a bone in her nose.

California and DC are, Thank God, outside my experience. Still, I am reminded of an interview an Indian immigrant gave once that I read somewhere- they asked him what disappointed him most about America, and he replied "the women aren't nearly as promiscuous as they are made out to be in the movies".
Maybe it isn’t the 1980s, but the white woman on the street in nice parts of LA is still very attractive. Not just hollywood either.
NYC seems to have far more SF type women, who could be hot, and often stay slim and fit, but have the stressed out frumpy corporate drone look. And the NYC accent is just ugly too.

Well, Wittgenstein would point out that she is technically correct: if you have stuff in your house that is valuable enough to be worth stealing (hence the burglary), then you have a pronounced value-differential relative to the thieves; hence your home, where the phone call is originating from, is literally a place of privilege.

“privilege” comes from “private” “law”, and originally meant that a group (clergy, military, tenant on a manor) had a law written especially for that person. In that sense, those in the US military have a private law — the UCMJ, and are “privileged” in the origial meaning.
“calling the police when your house is broken into comes from a place of privilege.” is therefore incorrect — anybody can call the police to report a burglary. If the burglar (or shoplifters) were only subject to law enforcement if they stole more they a certain amount, the burglar (or shoplifters) would be “privileged” in the original meaning.

>>I think it would be a good move for Texas to trade El Paso County to California for San Diego County. EPC is more Democrat and more Latino so it would fit in better in Cali, and SDC is actually more conservative and friendly to the military, which is a better fit for Texas. As a bonus, the move would give Texas a Pacific beach and comparative cooler vacation spot to visit without patronizing Californians. And Californians could visit El Paso for more diversity vibrancy. Just a thought.<<
There is no state income tax in El Paso county (or Texas) so that would boost shopping there from Cali. Oddly enough they brag in El Paso that it is quicker to drive to San Diego from there than to Austin, Houston or Dallas. Probably true depending on the AZ traffic cops.
But El Paso is also heavily military. Fort Bliss is the largest US training base. Just up north across the border in NM is the White Sands Test Range. Lots of brainy military types there, and also Holloman AFB adjacent in Alamogordo NM (drones & stealth). So despite Beta O'Rourke, the West Texas ethos of the Second Amendment and cultural conservatism is pretty strong there.

Speak for yourself, crackhead.
Any Black person, inclusive of the most hardened sociopath, who wants to get rid of the Police does not understand the true purpose of the Police.
Meditate on that fact.
Wittgenstein was exceptionally intelligent even by the standards of top physicists/mathematicians/PhD philosphers. People like to throw these huge IQ numbers around, when 99.999% of the time. In reality, an extremely smart person has an IQ of 140, and science Nobelists average 155. Wittgenstein has a genuine deviation IQ of 190, which puts him above Kepler, Kant, Copernicus and at the same level of Newton.
Wittgenstein is called often the “Man Who Killed Philosophy”. In his Tractatus, Wittgenstein proposes that all philosophical questions actually result from the misuse of language. According to Wittgenstein, Reality is made of small, completely independent facts that interact to create larger facts that have only transitory and contextual meaning. Wittgenstein called these “atomistic facts”. They result from axiomatic, infallible premises that are not language-based. In mathematics, all facts are atomistic facts, and all amthematical facts follow logically from axioms. In physics, too, but physics language starts to aply a confusing part, which is why physicists try their best to express physical truths in mathematical form and only result to phrasal definitions when the mathematics cannot describe it entirely.
But, in philosophy, language plays a preponderant role. According to Wittgenstein, the true meaning of a sentence, definition or word is it’s use. Words play in language the same role as numbers in mathematics; unlike in mathematics, where all numbers are axiomatically derived from the acceptance of the number “1” as the basic fundamental construct of all math, words exist as completely separate entities. Not only do they have multiple meanings in many case, the combination of these separate entities into sentences, definitions and statements result in multiple defering interpretations. Language is not a tool for elucidation of derivative facts that follow logically from axioms; rather, they are flexible definitions that serve the function of allowing people to “paint pictures” of reality as they see it. Language is a tool that social primates use to distort and manipulate facts to their own liking. Hence, there are mathematical facts and mathematical proofs, and physics problems and physical facts that are demonstrable by falsifiable tests. But there are no genuine philosophical problems. Hence, the same philosophical problems are debated since the time of Plato for twenty five centuries, just like a fly traped in a jab without a lid will eternally try to get out by flying to all sides, instead of just flying up.
Wittgensetein’s “Tractatus” is considered by many to be the single most brilliant work in philosophy since the formalization of logic by Aristotle 2,300 years ago. Philosophers themselves are divided: some worship Wittgenstein for having finally resolved so much confusion, but others resent him as having made phislophy largely redundant.
Wittgenstein was a very idiosyncractic and fascinating personality. He was a homosexual(actually bisexual, but whatever), but he had many stereotypical masculine concerns, such as a desire to find patterns in the World and a tendency towards obsessivness. Also, unlike most of these type of man, who usually tend be cowardly, Wittgenstein had the heart of a lion. He fought in WWI, where he was condecorated multiple times for his bravery. Wittgenstein was an extremly tough and brave man, which is unusal in intellectual types.
Wittgenstein also became notorious for his romantic failures and sexual frustration. He often fell in love with teenaged boys that couldn’t care less about him. He often had multiple affairs with women, although he never developed any romantic affection for a woman.
Conservatives often dislike Wittgenstein both for him homsosexual/bisexual, but also because Wittgenstein ridiculed religion often. Wittgenstein wrote:
“At the heart of every rligion there is the child, the child always, looking for a father to protect him from the dastardly nature of reality, which doesn’t care about human beings and their problems.”
Wittgenstein suggested that Nietzsche’s Overman might not be necessarily a Superior Man(like Wittgenstein obviously was), but simply a true *adult” that accepts that this life is the only one we will ever have, and that in a God-less Universe where physicality is all there is and morality is an exclusively human concern, it is up to humans to decide their own morality based on facts, logic and empathy, without having any sort of higher authority to admonis or reward them for their moral choices.
Texas has good German stock jn high numbers that help all races out with their looks, but Texas also has an over-abundance of Celts and the Orc-ish.
For pure volume of good looking women Texas is hard to beat, yet not quite at the top, but there are places with much better ratios of those women. Which is actually what matters for QOL. As a general rule, those places won’t be the largest or most prosperous cities (money attracts a lot of men of all races and the physically less gifted).
Though if one adds “conservative” or “traditional” to the filter, Texas’s profile improves greatly. Contrary to popular conserva-net belief, some of the best looking stock, in terms of ratio, is in extremely liberal areas.

Stats don’t bear out your claims about Whites.
Nonwhite places are not friendlier, except for the abundance non-white sociopaths who are adept at using “friendliness” is a means to victimize.
It is proven that multi-racial places cause a much higher incidence of social isolation, primarily because people begin bunkering in their residences (not acting communal). Due to low community trust.
The food is not better unless one enjoys deep fried foods loaded with too much salt, sugar, and spice. That’s not better. For better food (French, New American, etc), seek wealthier White neighborhoods.

The next year, 1914, we are supposed to believe one of the richest gay men in Europe volunteered for the Austrian army. Yeah, I bet he did. We are told almost nothing of his first two years as a soldier, but then we are told that in 1916 he was on the Russian front, where he allegedly fought against British troops, and was awarded many medals. He was finally promoted to lieutenant in 1918, so we are supposed believe he was a private from 1914 to 1918? Oy vey. We are then supposed to believe he took military leave in summer of 1918, retiring to his summer house in Vienna to complete the Tractatus. Yeah, that makes sense. You get promoted to lieutenant near the end of the war, during the heaviest fighting, and they immediately send you home to work on your famous book? And you have no problem concentrating on that book after almost four years of being in the army, in the worst war of all time?
After giving his book to the publisher, in October Wittgenstein was sent back to the front and was
allegedly captured by the Allies in Trentino. We are supposed to believe the richest man in Austria
then spent nine months in an Italian concentration camp. I guess his bunkmate was Andrew Carnegie.

Not only do they have multiple meanings in many case, the combination of these separate entities into sentences, definitions and statements result in multiple defering interpretations. Language is not a tool for elucidation of derivative facts that follow logically from axioms; rather, they are flexible definitions that serve the function of allowing people to "paint pictures" of reality as they see it. Language is a tool that social primates use to distort and manipulate facts to their own liking. Hence, there are mathematical facts and mathematical proofs, and physics problems and physical facts that are demonstrable by falsifiable tests. But there are no genuine philosophical problems. Hence, the same philosophical problems are debated since the time of Plato for twenty five centuries, just like a fly traped in a jab without a lid will eternally try to get out by flying to all sides, instead of just flying up.
Wittgensetein's "Tractatus" is considered by many to be the single most brilliant work in philosophy since the formalization of logic by Aristotle 2,300 years ago. Philosophers themselves are divided: some worship Wittgenstein for having finally resolved so much confusion, but others resent him as having made phislophy largely redundant.
Wittgenstein was a very idiosyncractic and fascinating personality. He was a homosexual(actually bisexual, but whatever), but he had many stereotypical masculine concerns, such as a desire to find patterns in the World and a tendency towards obsessivness. Also, unlike most of these type of man, who usually tend be cowardly, Wittgenstein had the heart of a lion. He fought in WWI, where he was condecorated multiple times for his bravery. Wittgenstein was an extremly tough and brave man, which is unusal in intellectual types.
Wittgenstein also became notorious for his romantic failures and sexual frustration. He often fell in love with teenaged boys that couldn't care less about him. He often had multiple affairs with women, although he never developed any romantic affection for a woman.
Conservatives often dislike Wittgenstein both for him homsosexual/bisexual, but also because Wittgenstein ridiculed religion often. Wittgenstein wrote:
"At the heart of every rligion there is the child, the child always, looking for a father to protect him from the dastardly nature of reality, which doesn't care about human beings and their problems."
Wittgenstein suggested that Nietzsche's Overman might not be necessarily a Superior Man(like Wittgenstein obviously was), but simply a true *adult" that accepts that this life is the only one we will ever have, and that in a God-less Universe where physicality is all there is and morality is an exclusively human concern, it is up to humans to decide their own morality based on facts, logic and empathy, without having any sort of higher authority to admonis or reward them for their moral choices.Replies: @Anonymous
Maybe Witt was the most intelligent man who ever lived, but why was his view on philosophy considered a breakthrough? You mean people never realized that language is inexact and often used vaguely and ambiguously? I mean, even without any study in philosophy, we know this to be true of so-called ‘social sciences’.
On the other hand, it follows a certain logic.
No wall to protect your nation, then no wall to protect your home.
Trespassers who enter your home are ‘dreamers’. They are forcing righteous ‘inclusion’ on you.
Maybe rapists can defend what they do as forcing love and inclusion on women who insist on body exclusion. No, all female bodies must be shared in the spirit of equality and inclusion.

Hard to blame him for that, considering the unhinged 24×7 negative media coverage, all the six major late night talk shows, the Daily Show, Bill Maher, John Olivier, SNL running attacks all the time. The fact the media blew up the phony Russia investigation to epic porportions, the crazy, frothing at the mouth attacks on his SC nominees.
Jeff Sessions letting the media convince him they would play by Marquess of Queensberry Rules instead of instituting an indefinite fishing expedition. This isn’t the 1980s, when there were still some big media not leftist, still some old timey liberals who believed editorials were for the Op-Ed page and didn’t permit news reporters to do it when reporting news stories, that world is gone.

Thank you for posting that quote.
I was aware Wittgenstein had fought in WWI, but the exact nature of his duty had hitherto been unknown to me. Now that I do know, I can’t say I am surprised: anyone with even a cursory knowledge of his life will tell you Wittgenstein never did anything by half measures.
If nothing else, I doubt if his companions ever suffered a moment’s boredom when he was around. I would give a great deal to have known him, not for his intellect, but for the sheer intensity of his personality (though I expect you had to be quite careful not to let him wear you out).
There are plenty of “Best Places” lists online and they generally pick places such as smallish towns across the upper Midwest. They of course do not list “fewest blacks” as a criteria, but the measures they do use –percent of people with degrees, low unemployment and especially low crime — are obvious proxies for whiteness.
They usually do not comment on “hotness of women,” if that’s going to be one of your key criteria
They predated white bread, mass sugaring, and supermarkets, and would have had long stretches of restricting food, e.g., WWI and WWII.

Pelosi actually did the right thing in asking for assistance getting up. There’s a woman in the background, wearing a dress quite similar in color, who despite being obviously much younger than Pelosi nearly fell down after rising when her knee buckled. On a more humorous note, a woman just behind Pelosi’s right had to keep a arm awkwardly in front of herself to avoid giving the world a good look up her dress. Oh, and on a couple of occassions Pelolsi can be seen futzing with her smart watch.

ii) Antifa and BLM would have had its wings clipped
iii) the police would have been scolded to provide riot protection or else, and the George Floyd riots might have just been George Floyd protests.
iv) Biden wouldnt be in the race (In his announcement speech he basically said he was retired until Charlottesville happened).All Trump would have had to do is call for a federal investigation of what went wrong at Charlottesville, and the truth would have come out. Instead Trump gave the ADL a blank-check to meme C'ville whatever way they wanted.If he hadnt done b) there would have been fewer criminals out on the street to join in the rioting and fewer felons voting against him in November in key states.These are tactical errors.

There is no state income tax in El Paso county (or Texas) so that would boost shopping there from Cali. Oddly enough they brag in El Paso that it is quicker to drive to San Diego from there than to Austin, Houston or Dallas. Probably true depending on the AZ traffic cops.
But El Paso is also heavily military. Fort Bliss is the largest US training base. Just up north across the border in NM is the White Sands Test Range. Lots of brainy military types there, and also Holloman AFB adjacent in Alamogordo NM (drones & stealth). So despite Beta O'Rourke, the West Texas ethos of the Second Amendment and cultural conservatism is pretty strong there.

“calling the police when your house is broken into comes from a place of privilege.” is therefore incorrect -- anybody can call the police to report a burglary.
