Welcome to part 2 of “I hate progressives”, where I have to remind people that I don’t necessarily hate the people, although there are plenty of assholes on all sides of the political aisle, and only the ideas that they have. This was spurred by a call into The Line, which I responded to a couple of posts ago, but this was just too massive a topic to engage with any other way. So let’s get back to it. Continue reading I Hate Progressives Part 2

I Hate Progressives Part 1
In a recent post, I said that I was going to do a series of posts on why I really dislike progressive political points. It’s not that I hate the people necessarily, just what the people believe. Hate the sin, love the sinner, although a lot of these people make it really hard to love them because they’re just assholes.
So let’s get to the first point. Continue reading I Hate Progressives Part 1
That Doesn’t Make it Better!
There was a recent call over on The Line from a woman named Angel in Ireland and while the call wandered around a lot, there were two points that I wanted to touch on. First, she asked if every religion in the world became “extremely progressive” overnight, would Matt and Jimmy still fight against them, and secondly, when talking about skepticism, she kept insisting that she was open-minded, as if they were the same thing.
They are not. Matt and Jimmy gave their answers, but I’m going to give mine. Continue reading That Doesn’t Make it Better!
This is Going to Fail Too!
So you know they’re making a new Red Sonja movie, right? It’s been in development hell for a very long time and at one point, Bryan Singer was supposed to direct, but that was a long time ago. Now, they’ve got their second female director involved, M.J. Bassett, who replaced Jill Soloway, who now wants to be non-binary, which this is Hollywood, why the hell not, but we’re seeing that this is going to be a complete disaster.
Why? Because they can’t just tell a Red Sonja story, they have to pander to a modern woke audience and those people don’t go and see movies! Continue reading This is Going to Fail Too!
You Have to Start Somewhere
I’ve said for a long time that wanting everyone to be just like you are, that’s a recipe for disaster. It just starts echo chambers where no one can ever learn anything because everyone already believes the same thing. I am not like that. I think it’s an unrealistic expectation, but recently, someone called me out on it and I wanted to respond.
So here we go. Continue reading You Have to Start Somewhere
Both Sides Suck!
It’s not hard to see if you just bother to look, but on YouTube especially, there are people on both sides of the social divide that assert that the other side sucks, just because the other side doesn’t agree with their own unsupported assertions. They’re right, everyone else is wrong, so there!
Sorry, but you all suck. You need to come to intellectual conclusions and most of these people just don’t care. Continue reading Both Sides Suck!
When Did Everyone Become So Stupid?
Honestly, when did everyone decide that they couldn’t make a move without the consensus of social media? Just ran into some idiot who said he bought a tool at Walmart, he got it home and it didn’t work. It was faulty. What does he do?
Seriously, take it back! Why is this even a question? What the hell is wrong with you morons? Continue reading When Did Everyone Become So Stupid?
More Leftists Not Looking in the Mirror
Not that it’s any surprise, but here we go again. Rationality Rules made a video, which, absolutely is true for what it’s doing, but he completely ignores the fact that his own political ideology does exactly the same thing. He can’t acknowledge that, can he? He can’t even see it happening.
He can’t look in the mirror and use the same standards against himself. What else is new? Continue reading More Leftists Not Looking in the Mirror
Activist Idiots
It’s weird where you find stupid people, but here you go. Over on Facebook, in a local pet group, someone posted that she had a dog that she’d gotten from a homeless guy who, in her words “wasn’t taking care of it”. She was trying to give it away.
I said, as a helpful comment, that she might want to amend her original post and confirm that the homeless guy had given her the dog and requested that she find it a new home. Homeless people have rights, including property rights. You can’t just take their belongings, and a dog is property, against their will because you don’t like what they’re doing with it. Otherwise, she was in possession of stolen property.
That’s when the shit storm started. Continue reading Activist Idiots
How Can They Be This Dumb?
Yeah, I’m going to complain about this again because it’s happened twice this week and I am sick to death of it.
How can telemarketers or idiots banging on your door be as stupid as they are? What rational thought goes through their heads that they don’t know when to give up and go the hell away? Because I am about to get a shotgun and go after these assholes. I’m tired of it. Continue reading How Can They Be This Dumb?
