Here's some more thoughtful comments from our good friend:
he's not even suspended or banned, lunacy.
Honestly I can respect that. Violence works. If you're not willing to fight for what you believe in, then you're merely cattle to be herded and milked.
it'd mean more if it wasn't the most literally who of literally who blueskyers.Honestly I can respect that. Violence works. If you're not willing to fight for what you believe in, then you're merely cattle to be herded and milked.
Violence or the threat of violence, when used correctly, can often be a very effective negotiation technique.Honestly I can respect that. Violence works. If you're not willing to fight for what you believe in, then you're merely cattle to be herded and milked.

It's weird reading this because Nate seems oblivious to the connection between higher education and blueskyism. Modern American leftism is quite literally a product of higher education. Is he just not aware of SDS, the Port Authority statement, groups like the Weather Underground (whose members are still alive today)? Communist parties, in the U.S., openly recruit people from college campuses. The demographics of bluesky is not a coincidence.Nate said:Blueskyism should not be mistaken for general left-of-center political views. Google search traffic for Bluesky over the past year is highly correlated with Kamala Harris’s vote share, but has some other skews: controlling for the Harris vote, it’s (statistically) significantly higher in states with a large white population and where the percentage of people with advanced degrees is higher. Bluesky is disproportionately popular in D.C., but also in crunchy white states like Vermont and Oregon. Search traffic for Twitter/X over the same period shows the same bias toward highly educated states, but less toward Harris voters4 and actually an inverse correlation with the white population share. (X gets more search traffic in more diverse states.)

Entryism is an interesting word to use here because in my experience it's largely Trot groups that recruit from colleges via entryism (wasn't always the case), and Marxist-Leninists just do entryism from other socialist parties like the DSA.I would argue that it's a program of deliberate marxist entryism in formerly august institutions that has turned them into commie-hives, rather than there being something inherently leftist in the very concept of a University.
I would say these aren't mutually exclusive. American society overinflated the need of higher education, (left leaning people of course), to be successful in life.Is modern American leftism a product of higher education, or is modern American higher education a product of leftism?
The midwit meme continues to be ever more salient. The idiots on the left end of the bell curve follow their instincts and are racist, xenophobic, and generally very conservative. The very intelligent and very well read are racist, xenophobic, and generally very conservative. It's the overeducated midwits that can be convinced to suppress their instincts and embrace suicidal ideology because of some clever rational slight of hand. There's a kernel of truth in liberalism; the concept that divine right and nepotism doesn't always yield the best results, that treating homo sapiens equally under the law encourages everyone to put forth their best effort, and other Enlightenment ideals. But it quickly goes off the rails if it opens yourself up to being exploited by other groups that don't embrace these ideas, such as extreme nepotism among Africans and Indians.Is modern American leftism a product of higher education, or is modern American higher education a product of leftism?

Funny as hell that the negative comments are so obviously the exact thing he’s talking about, though.It's weird reading this because Nate seems oblivious to the connection between higher education and blueskyism.

literally hitler squaredNew milestone! Bluesky users have been calling their enemies fascists for so long that the word "fascist" doesn't work anymore. They now insist their enemies' actions are "above and beyond fascism":

How about banning trannies, niggers and any other unflavorful "people" instead?View attachment 7898826
"Charlie Kirk dying is good" said the npc.
It sets the dangerous precedent that anyone present, even Hasan Piker who was also at the event and was scared shitless of the shooting could be the next target.
i wish they'd ban guns. There, problem solved!
