    Random Political Thoughts That Don't Deserve a Dedicated Thread

    Random Political Thoughts That Don't Deserve a Dedicated Thread


    With every member of the Biden ("Lets Go Brandon!") Bunch, lying every time they open their mouths, I can now understand why so many Libs were so excited to mention Trump's supposed dishonesty.

    They are now using it to play tit 4 tat.

    They can say 'our lies are nothing compared to Trump's trillions of lies!'

    The beauty of Conservatism is that even if you don't know why it is right or can't easily explain why it is right, it exerts a pull on you. It grounds you. It makes everything else make better sense. It works the way humans naturally work. How we work best when we are at our best.

    It harnesses Human Nature.

    To care for ourselves and to produce in order that we and our loved ones will not starve, and with the abundance created from producing in our own self interest we are able to freely and voluntarily help others who are less fortunate.

    The problem with Marxism is that the government forces people to work for the state and it thereby always results in less production because human nature compels us to work longer and harder for ourselves than for the state.

    And that always results in a shortage of goods and poorer service.

    Why doesn't the Left get that?

    That is the 'pat' answer that leaves us feeling resigned to shrugging our shoulders but no closer to understanding what we can do about it.

    We put our child in charge for a day – it was both terrifying and freeing


    One day a year our daughter does as she pleases and it’s always great fun… and a good education for us all


    Donna Ferguson
    Sun 17 Oct 2021


    We call it her “in-charge day”. A day when our nine-year-old daughter Flora is in charge, and we are, effectively, hers to command. A day when all the traditional hierarchies between parent and child are reversed, when she can fulfil her fantasies, refuse to do anything she doesn’t want to and experience a taste of power, authority and absolute freedom.


    OK, not absolute freedom. There are some ground rules. She can’t do anything we deem to be unsafe or illegal. She can’t ask us to buy anything “too expensive” (we keep this part deliberately vague). And, this year, we realised we needed to add one more sentence of small print to our contract: she cannot purchase any new pets.


    Every year, we give her a “gift voucher” for this day on her birthday in January . We set the time and the date ourselves: 24 hours in charge, from 1pm on a Saturday until 1pm on Sunday, usually at the end of spring. It is something I know she greatly looks forward to through the winter. And it is a reminder, to us, that her childhood is passing – that one day she will be an adult, in charge of her own life, able to do as she pleases every day. That each day we spend with her, when she is still our little girl, is precious.


    There is a song in Matilda, the musical, where the characters sing about how, when they grow up, they will have treats everyday and watch cartoons all the time and go to bed late every night. The irony, of course, is that when they do grow up, they will probably no longer be quite so keen to do those things. This idea that childhood wishes are destined to fade away, unfulfilled, has always seemed a little sad to me.

    The Conservatives should have adopted a plan like this long ago in hopes that it might have satiated the Left's desire for the political power to enact every fool idea of theirs without any one to tell them, "NO."

    What's happened now is that they have STOLEN the power to do whatever they want and they have employed the services of big, strong, bad guys who won't relinquish power, even when the Dems want them to.

    But the Dems don't yet know this.

    That is the whole point of fake insurrection hearings and the bashing of Trump every day, to keep the lemming's eyes of of the Democrats fascist takeover of society
