Outside of Heather MacDonald, few match Chris' skill and clarity of thought. My husband, student data analyst for Oakland Unified, was cheering every statement as Chris destroyed Mounk, Weiss and the librarian.

Heather Mac Donald is one of my intellectual heroes. She is so good at making arguments and advancing lines of reasoning.

Yep. And she has the guts to address civil disorder/crime while the vast majority dance around the issues.

Yay ! May we remove these mountains of trash and clear the air so that the elevated Western Tradition shines in its well earned place: the Apex of human achievement, the possibility of accomplishment open to all humans, the pursuit of continuity’s reward: validity and honor ! 🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓While one might redesign a steering wheel, only a fool would fable the falsehood that humans redesign the truth, the beautiful, and the honorable. Those deadly hijinks caverns - dangerous, deceptive, and popular - plan to replace humanity’s upward call of dignity even though our human Standard is recognizable and unchangeable, noble and distinguishable, represented through the finest attributes individuality ie Western culture.

Chris Rufo shines the light of our democracy’s potent and original intent on the shameful, degrading, untenable, wayward dissolution of these our goals. Our forefathers, themselves enlightened by European and Ancient Greek and Roman traditions, would be horrified by such degrading of freedom and of government. “What have you created for us, Franklin?” Asked a colonist. “A Republic, if you can keep it,” slyly, insightfully the founding father replied.

If we have not kept it - ( and, for example, the haggle that “colonist” means malevolent devil is vicious on the atomic level as is insisting pronouns are replaceable - such like incidents split apart our commons further and further into non-communal norms and shall become thousands of obtuse chain reactions, until there’s nothing recognizable and the obliteration of the most glorious perfection of culture known among humans is accomplished. ie our tradition of respect for a dream worded by Jefferson is made unrecognizable. Western Culture will be ended!)

if we do not keep it ... if vanity and the chasing of the wind hollow out the Spirit of Dignity we were handed, if consciousness devolves into an endless chain reaction of unstoppable, timeless separations - and that’s where we are headed - we are but ruins.

The stakes are that high. So much so that Rufo needs millions of listeners !
