Google is censoring searches about "juneteenth." Think about the implications of such a large organization whose main value proposition is to connect search terms with the results people are looking for, and then blacking out entire ideas because they might come to a conclusion contrary to the new religion.

In a rational, objective world, this is business suicide. Your product is proudly proclaiming it is unable to achieve even its most basic of functions.

To the new religion, this is standard behavior and makes complete sense inside their framework.

For any sane, rational adult, this is as clear as a signal as you can get that this organization hates you and deems their religion more important than your access to information. They will always side against you. Act accordingly.

And yes, that's google telling me that there were only 2 results for my "juneteenth" query that had hundreds just a day before.

The religion of the Left has this pet theory that if you allow yourself to be exposed to ideas, you will adopt those ideas uncritically, no matter what the ideas are.

It's a useful model for them, they avoid right-leaning arguments because they have little in the way of counter-arguments for them, and they may be swayed, which must be avoided at all cost.

But the theory doesn't really hold up for non-Leftist new religious nutjobs.

I keep seeing troons, lgbt, feminism, and nonsensical Leftist ideals in movies, television, and on social media and none of it comports with my observations and experience. Without a convincing argument to explain why I should believe my eyes and ears are lying to me, I have to assume what I observe is true, and that they are the ones lying.

Adopting a worldview by osmosis only works for idiots.

@redpillschool

The Marines didn't touch any civilians, and so far I haven't heard of any reports of non-violent peaceful protesters being harmed in any way.

Because, again, they were not needed or wanted by local law enforcement- Trump deploying them was 100% performative. Everything was 100% under control.

the left lost any moral high-ground when they threw their last tantrum. The left seems to think they can use political violence every time they don't get their own way,

This is not considered a "left" issue by people living in Los Angeles. Again, this was a political stunt, an avatar for issues that get the Right Wing base riled up. But right-leaning people here in Los Angeles don't feel threatened or invaded by "The Mexicans.

It's a REALLY BAD precedent to send troops into cities to deal with civilian law enforcement matters. Frankly I'm disappointed to see you defending this so.

Introducing some isms

Deploying military troops for civilian law enforcement, IS AUTHORITARIAN by its nature. The rhetoric I hear people not from Los Angeles using about immigrants and the ICE raids, IS the language of small minded racist fucks. If you don't want to own it, that's on you, but I see dismissing this as "Isms" a cowardly cop out.

@MentORPHEUS Here's the problem. The left lost any moral high-ground when they threw their last tantrum. The left seems to think they can use political violence every time they don't get their own way, and it's a serious problem. Especially when the people on the right get jail time and arrested for defending themselves.

You guys hit the country with your bully tactics and then clutch your pearls every time you get what you wanted: a reaction.

The national guard was a good call. The left now knows we're not going to tolerate political violence.

The Marines didn't touch any civilians, and so far I haven't heard of any reports of non-violent peaceful protesters being harmed in any way.

So all of your tears are hyperbole over something that isn't happening, while simultaneously defending the group that keeps on starting these damn fights.

racism and authoritarianism

Introducing some isms because the left can't win an argument without them.
