Riley Gaines

It is surprising that it is only very occasionally that someone will step up and be counted in a political fight. Here Riley Gaines went out and attacked the very idea of a male competing in women’s sports, in this case swimming.

I admire Riley. It’s hard. As a woman, a high achiever, an athlete and one who still competes today, and a mother, this topic hits me in several areas. When you go to places and try speaking up, it’s amazing just how quickly and viciously you get shut down and shut out for speaking up. Now, I’m a strong person, and I’m not crushed, but I don’t have a platform to speak from anymore either except in places like these where people are going to almost exclusively agree with me

Australia the next Venezuela

I wish I were up to writing all that needs to be said, but I’ve just read how Labor is going to deliver us “the new capitalism”.

Here is how the old capitalism worked. Individuals would put their own capital at risk and if it worked out they would earn a living, and sometimes become rich. Meanwhile, the community would become more prosperous over time.

Now the word used by our Treasurer is “co-investment’. The government will lead the way. It will be in “partnership”. They are such buffoons but we will all pay for their stupidity. These socialists have never understood a thing about how an economy works.

The left are shallow if not actually stupid

This is from a comment at Instapundit. The article commented on is by Sam Harris:

You cannot reason with these people.Harris is known for his writing on atheism which he is self-declared.

This is the comment:

An atheist is someone who has replaced a belief in God w/ a belief in some other higher power – in our country, it’s often government or Democrats or Progressives etc, but if you listen – truly listen – they’re describing a god. The brilliant CafeHayek people make a similar point: if you listen to progressives describe how central planning works, they’re clearly assuming divine intervention in the form of some wise government official who knows all & loves all etc.

You literally can’t make any of their theories work unless you assume a god, so they’re not really atheists – they just prefer bureaucrats or PhDs to the Judeo-Christian God.

Oh Canada

Canada has a reputation for goodness based on nothing.

Any country that could elect and then re-elect Justin Trudeau is a country of fools: see https://pjmedia.com/columns/david-solway-2/2022/08/26/the-trouble-with-trudeau-n1624567

Personally I just think he’s stupid, in way over his head but the country is too stupid. The author writes as if there is a thought process involved but he is just as stupid as his electorate.

Science marches on

This is incredible. Who could believe we could go this far backwards and so quickly?

Scientific American declares biological sex is construct to ‘reinforce gender and racial divisions’

Evidence: https://thepostmillennial.com/scientific-american-declares-biological-sex-is-construct-to-reinforce-gender-and-racial-divisions

Of course, the Bible declares that He created man and then woman. And not even Darwinian theory can explain how evolution accounts for two sexes.
