Tucker Carlson interviewed Dr. Witt-Doerring on the topic of SSRI drugs. His practice is focused on weaning people off these drugs. Very interesting.
Short take: These substances are dangerously understudied and vastly overprescribed. And they don’t work for very long. And the long term side effects are concerning.
If you know or love someone who uses these drugs, you should take the time to listen to this man.
Pushback Against the Suicide Cult…
Regular readers are familiar with the ongoing demise of the Anglosphere due largely to the mass migration of unassimilable Muslim “refugees” (they’re not refugees; they’re conquistadors). The demise also has a lot to do with their embrace of communism, their willingness to disarm, and their general rejection of traditional faith.
The linked article takes an optimistic tone illustrated with several embedded videos indicating the patriotic native born are waking up and starting to push back. I can’t say I share the outlook, however.
Revolutions need weapons, and weapons are in short supply over there. Additionally, the task of organizing will be made nearly impossible because they live in a surveillance state that arrests people for innocuous tweets. Disarmed, disorganized and closely monitored, would be patriots would have their work cut out for them.
We should care because the same communists who are imposing this crap on the British people want to do the same thing to us. The UK government and police are clearly the bad guys. It should be the overt policy of the US government to support those who resist this tyranny and share our values (specifically the 1A). A civil war is looming, and there should be no doubt about where we stand.
Two issues:
First: In the wake of the George Floyd madness, many large urban jurisdictions put an end to the notion of having to post bail after one has been arrested for certain crimes. The idea was to inject fairness into the system.
If you’re rich and get arrested for shoplifting, you can post bail quickly and be home for dinner. Eight months later you show up in court and take whatever deal your high powered attorney can negotiate for you. Probably a fine and some community service with a little probation thrown in.
If you’re poor and get arrested for shoplifting, you sit in jail until your court date. You go to court eight months later and plead guilty, and you’re released on time served.
It’s not really fair. It is, in practice, a two tiered justice system whereby those with the means can buy their way out of doing jail time.
Cashless bail is an ill considered solution to a real injustice. Criminals keep racking up offenses without worrying about bail or court, and the public peace is compromised. The answer is cash bail appropriate to one’s means, and actual speedy trials (as called for by the constitution). And upon conviction, rich or poor, lock them up.
Second: The feds are threatening to withhold funds from jurisdictions who allow cashless bail. This is a good thing because it will increase safety and security for regular folks, but it begs the systemic question: why are the feds giving any money to any jurisdiction to begin with? What benefit is there to laundering money through the federal government if it is going to be used in local law enforcement anyway? What it boils down to is that they are using tax dollars collected in low crime states to pay for law enforcement in high crime states. I don’t want to pay for their law enforcement; nor should I have to.
The federal leviathan is too expensive, too wasteful, and when the wrong executive is running things, too tyrannical. The current administration is not doing anything to shrink the monster despite being brought into power by promising to do just that.
I fear that the only way to shrink it is to end it and start all over again.
AI Chat Bot Encouraged a Psycho to Kill His Mother…
Dollars to Doughnuts he was on an SSRI drugs as well (see above).
Here’s another dark story about AI coaching a teenager on suicide.
The AI cat is out of the bag, and we need to get some firm guardrails up. And yes, despite what the author says, it will eventually go full terminator on us.
Apparently, some people (sports-cucks) still watch football. They can go as woke as they want, and I won’t even know about it because I have not watched football since I was 12. If you are a grown man and you have the time to have an emotional investment in football, you really should reexamine your priorities. You degrade yourself by watching.
Fans Ejected from Euro-Basket for Racial Abuse…
Germany has a black basketball player on their team. The fans were thrown out for making “monkey” noises. This begs the question: Why did security assume the noises were directed at the black guy? Think about it.
It is a multi-day festival in the Netherlands. Naturally red haired folks are an endangered species. They become more rare with each passing generation. If I were King, I’d pass an edict forbidding red haired people from marrying anyone who didn’t also have red hair. I’d then offer generous incentives and tax breaks for them to have as many children as they could. It would not be my number one priority, but it would be on the list.
