"How can Conservatives take back the culture?" -- start with Science Fiction and Fantasy's Hugo Awards. Step 1: Read some science fiction / fantasy books. Listen to your friends for new ones that they like Step 2: Buy a membership to WSFS -- Voting for the Hugo awards is open to all members of the World Science Fiction Society (WSFS), and to become a member all you have to do is buy a membership in that year’s Worldcon. It is not necessary to actually attend the convention. A “supporting membership,” the cost of which varies from year to year (in 2015 it costs US$40; in 2016 it costs US$50), is all you need to join WSFS. Step 3: Nominate and vote for the science fiction / fantasy stories that are the best quality and support your values. The typical winner, wins with around 2000 votes. 2000 lockstep Conservatives could take over any given category. 10,000 Conservatives all voting their own way, could easily take the whole process. This is how the freaks took over SciFi, and it's how we can take it back. Even Jeremy's "Pendragon" could win, if we got ourselves put together properly.

idk if they’re not causing crime and disturbing the peace, i don’t mind it

[@johnselden9257]

@ They are causing crime actually and there are a ton of lies and manipulations about it. Depending on the population we are talking about. East Asians commit less crime for sure. Hispanics though, are another story. Additionally, the entire mass immigration scheme is all about keeping wages stagnant for low skill workers by flooding America on the border, and then stagnating wages with higher skilled labor by abusing the H1B Visas. Then add to that the outsourcing of a huge amount of manufacturing, this is why so many people are struggling. Something like 50% of American Stem graduates can’t find a job and yet we are told we need H1B Visa migrants because we need smart people? Oh and how about the fact that a huge amount of these illegal migrants are getting here and then getting welfare? That should never happen. If you don’t understand how that one issue alone is incredibly wrong and destructive, I don’t know what to tell you. We are 36 trillion in debt; we are the brokest nation on the planet and yet we are paying the bills of anyone who crosses our OPEN border? Meanwhile there are homeless people all over the street, nobody can afford to buy a house, most people are in debt, etc. Joe Biden just allowed 10 million+ people in. It’s unbelievable…

[@johnselden9257]

@ Can you show me where and when white people voted to become a minority in their own country? If you know anything about how this country ran prior to LBJ, you would know that that actually is not a controversial question. Unless you think that almost every nation on Earth is racist for doing the exact same thing? Because that’s the other issue with all of this that I forgot to mention, human beings are very tribal, it’s in our genetics. What do you think will happen when you fill a country up with different groups? Well, we already know what happens. They start viewing each other as different groups and as the “other” and of course, activists will start saying that one group is the oppressor (Marxist playbook) and it all descends into madness from there. That has literally already happened and it is all based on race. And you want to continue that? Have you thought about this issue at all? Have you listened to anyone talking about immigration negatively? The US has taken on more migration than any other nation in the world. It has actually been the largest flow of human beings the world has EVER SEEN. But to you, just as long as they don’t commit crimes it’s totally fine? Some real deep thinking you have there.

Everyone cheers when someone leaves Atheism, whether they go Catholic, Protestant, or Orthodox. It's actually pretty wholesome, these days.

Love your show! But (English language professional here) you are helping the bad guys by saying “Islamist” instead of “Islamic”. “Islamist” is a term invented the day before yesterday to pretend that the religion is a religion of peace, and the people acting according to its teachings are “getting it wrong”. The fact that most Muslims are nominal believers who don’t want to enact jihad of the sword does not make the religion one of peace, but rather the people claiming the name of the religion as not serious about their religion. We don’t need multiple words to indicate “different types of Islam”, but rather, different types of believers : nominals, eclectic believers (who pick and choose the teachings they like and reject the ones they don’t on their own authority), and true believers, the ones who believe they should try to live by all the teachings without regard to what they might prefer. That goes for any religion, but because of the effort to whitewash Islam, it goes double for them.

[@jimluebke3869]

If we want to hedge instead of saying "this was a terryatk" because we don't want to jump to conclusions, can we maybe say "there is significant evidence this was a terryatk"? Even if that evidence turns out to be misleading or even deceptive, the it seems to me that the evidence is in fact present, and that's worth reporting. If it's misleading evidence or deceptive evidence, that would certainly be worth a follow-up as the story develops. Sure, by this process you'd say that there was "evidence" that Jussie Smollett was atk'd (Jussie's testimony being that evidence), but the fact that that evidence later turned out to be deceptive was a story worth following too. In fact, stories in between analyzing the quality of whatever evidence we have, are also worthwhile news of a story as it unfolds. Seems to me that this sort of process is the news working as intended.

This has turned me a bit sour against these guys. What's the point of defending culture if we just import another and it takes over? And no, I'm not being hyperbolic or extremist or whatever...

So if I had the chance to do it again, I'd probably do exactly the same thing. But the cost was very high. Serious losses all the way around. So if I could give myself some advice from the future, I'd be the voice of Dooley Wilson, telling me that Ilsa and me were bad luck for each other.

On day one Trump needs to pardon Biden (and Hillary). This removes his 5th Amendment rights and he'll spend the rest of his days in testimony.

Oh Klavan master of the multiverse, while your wisdom and brilliance are unmatched by any mortal, I have a problem with your depiction of Frozen. Frozen does not indicate that her rebellion is the right way. It shows that she is closing herself off to everyone. Which is immediately challenged by her sister, who wants them both to be together again. Frozen is coming of age story from a female point of view. Similar to how in the Lion King, the song Hakuna Matata is proven wrong in the movie. These songs are catchy because, ultimately, the faults that the songs are speaking to are real and many fall into them.
