Utopia Talk / Politics / America's next generation of legal minds

TL;DR some conservative judge was scheduled to give a speech at Stanford law. Apparently a bunch of law students were organized by a DEI administrator to disrupt the speech and prevent him from being able to talk, using the justification that "counter-speech is free speech." As the students got increasingly rowdy the judge asked a school official to intervene, whereupon the DEI administrator hijacked the podium and proceeded to lecture HIM on how he has caused harm to people as a result of his career.

Video of the original incident: http://vimeo.com/806801455/16c79baa14

The behavior of the students was so egregious that the dean of Stanford felt a need to apologize to the judge. That in turn made *her* a target, and she was forced to walk through a human corridor of masked protestors. A third of the entire law school student body participated, and those that didn't got hostile treatment.

Students don't get radicalized like this on their own. We need to purge the teachers and administrators that are causing this shit.

Desantis 2024! Save america(for real this time).

Nah, scratch that. Nuclear war(maybe starting ss a civil war) is likely. I feel like we are in the first few chapters of Foundation, or the last few chapters of gibbons decline and fall. I dont think we can be saved. At least not on our own. Maybe chatgpt6.7 will turn into a happy skynet and rule the world mercifully on our behalf.

"and prevent him from being able to talk"

The very video that you show shows the admin going up making a speech about how the guy has bad positions but has the right to speak and then leaves allowing the discussion to go forward. Seems like more victimhood politics from the right.

"Students don't get radicalized like this on their own."

You're right, Trump had to do it.

Sorry Rugian, this isn't going to change. Ever. This judge is a Trump appointee, and as far as I can tell he did not resign on or shortly after January 6th to live a private and quiet life until his natural death. That's all anyone needs to know. He's not a legitimate judge, his purpose was to rubber-stamp Trump's life dictatorship that (so far) hasn't come to pass.

His judicial record of violating basic human and constitutional rights also didn't help him any, assuming wikipedia is ballpark correct.

[Rugian]: "Students don't get radicalized like this on their own."
[Low-Information Marxist Useful Idiot]: "You're right, Trump had to do it."

This talking point isn't much better than tw's psychosis wherein he blames Trump for everything without realizing that the Regime is *having* him blame Trump for everything since tw is just a Maoist who no longer possesses a mind of his own.

In reality, this is indeed the long march through the institutions, and only Marxists signaling their Faith in Party Doctrine believe that such a history is "inevitable" or the mere consequence of any advanced human development (a deterministic error). It is a particular aspect of Marxism that useful idiots must delude themselves into believing that socialist/communist psychopathy is the natural result of capitalism, when, in reality, they are merely intuiting the directives of the Inner Party oligarchs who *want* them to act towards this Marxist "end of history".

More simply: these students are being directed. They are useful idiots. This is the result of billions of dollars of donations by trillionaire asset managers and captured governments into Marxist projects. These students were fed propaganda, they were denied the viewpoints which would dissolve this idiocy, and their response to the "trauma" of another viewpoint is the self-flagellation of perpetual victimhood.


[Low-Information Marxist Useful Idiot]: "There needs to be something in between this idiot judge, and the hyper woke... It's ok to be a man, but it's also ok to be buttfucked by a man if that's what you think is fun."

Translation:
"Hey, why can't we just have a *little* bit of Maoism and *not* do the mass-starvation, World War III proxy wars, and burial ditches?"

Cthulhu swims left, ep; you either keep up or the Regime discards you.

The so-called "TERFs" made the same mistake you just made: they thought that they could have slave-morality feminism without other slave moralities destroying the very being of "woman". They were wrong, and they were destroyed by the Regime, who brands them another type of "Nazi" even as they continue voting for the DNC totalitarians. Just see how "accepting" they are of TERFs in the psychosis subReddits and Imgur. That software was dropped as a hard line only a few months ago, but the Maoists are already making TERFs dig their own ditches or accept the struggle sessions.

The slippery slope is real and it is not meant to stop in the "idyllic" '90s. That's the trick with slave morality. The most "oppressed" person is given the most social power, but these "Harrison Bergeron" acolytes will cut off their own limbs and penises to descend into that inverted hierarchy so that their personal spectral evidence will be believed by the wider psychosis. Or to try a metaphor: this is the Joker in charge of Arkham escapees. What do you suppose determines that pecking order?


So you have two central options as a leftist:

1) Accept the Party's eternal present and follow it to whatever insane place it may go, including *when* that will mean cutting off your own penis to fit in (e.g., fitting into the eugenics plan) or having an open relationship and fucking a transperson so that you can prove that you're not a bigot.

2) Draw a line in the sand today by writing down the last remaining values that you actually and sincerely possess — the things that you would not want them to take from you — and when the Party declares that those values are against its "Utopia", you *don't* just forget that you had those values and you actually *realize* that the Party is making you transform into a debased animal who is endlessly interchangeable with any other dogmatic slave.


The people who choose option "1" are the Regime's ideal slave.
The people who choose option "2" are those leftists who have been "cancelled" for accidentally realizing that they've been allying with psychopaths.

If the successful secret socialist capitalists outnumber and outpower the successful capitalists, that's quite telling in itself.

IRL the "socialist capitalist billionaire" threat is one of the signs of fascism, if that's what you insist on adhering to:

That the "enemy" is concurrently too weak to be worth worrying about, and so powerful that we must all unite behind Dear Leader or we're fucked.

Or, it's not that at all. It's just that the Karl Marx literate socialist-capitalists are vastly better understanding the world than their Friedrich Nietzsche literate opponents.

[ep]: "Good thing all the "trillionaire" beneficiaries of capitalism, who run everything seemingly, are secret Marxist rabble-rousing co-conspirators."

Oh no! Totes owned! EP's pathetic red herring has blasted my argument!
lol
That's Reddit-level misdirection by ep right there.

But I wonder if Lenin, Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot, and a dozen other genocidal abusers of Marxist logic would qualify as "capitalists" under ep's rhetorical error? Probably so.


Or, to explain more plainly: psychopathic oligarchs give Marxism and Communism to the useful idiot masses (i.e., slave morality is given to the proles, who in their pathetic weakness believe that they will have their worker's "Utopia", when, in reality, Marxism merely makes the masses more easily controllable for a centralized authority) while they, the oligarchs, get all the perks of sitting atop a slave society. Private ownership is dismantled and the state centralizes ownership while the slaves are only allotted capital conditionally as it helps further the interests of the centralized state.

That is not capitalism.

So yes,
"Sounds totally legit"
Because it *is* legit. Stop playing the Celebration Parallax Regime-propaganda game of "It's not happening and it's good that it is!"

This has happened before, and it is happening again. This is the basis of hundreds of years of Asiatic Bolshevism and its cancerous spread. This is the centralization of power, the building of a slavish population — a useful bloc of idiots united by resentment and a dogmatic belief in Marxist refrains such as solidarity, equity, sustainability, and LGBTQ2S+NAMBLA pandering. Marxist oligarchs pander to the moral slaves of a society — the weak, the pathetic, the nihilists, the self-destructive, the alienated, the resentful. These slaves would typically be too pathetic to ascend in society, but the Bolsheviks artificially place them into positions of power, destroy society through mismanagement, and seize power during the vacuum of this incompetence.

That is not capitalism.

Slave-morality societies do not function from some great industrialist enterprise where the best capitalist simply ascends and then ensnares the population. This happens through infiltration. The Bolsheviks seek out the levers of power, such as how Stalin used "routine" bureaucratic appointments to seize power from the state. So you establish a Federal Reserve, pass "Civil Rights" laws which enable the legal protection of slave morality, capture banks through regulation and "too big to fail" imperatives, drain the coffers with proxy wars, and use the people's own revenue to sell the beauty of slavery to those very people (i.e., "social justice" funded by the government).

That is not capitalism.

That is parasitism.
That is totalitarianism.

"maybe you can rephrase and perhaps edit the word salad down for clarity?"

The basic argument I'm responding to is that "evil lefties are smarter than us and more effective than us and more impactful than us and better able to maneuver complex systems than us and richer than us and more successful than us, at basically everything, so you have to just support the opposite of that, or doom will befall us all. [Cherub Cow Addenda] And you're a slave if you don't, unlike we people who are Teh True Masters."

You're worth far less than this eulogy for your spirit.

You have nothing to say because you are completely and utterly out of your depth. You visit these forums so infrequently that you haven't a clue what's going on and all you can do is repeat Regime talking points that are so old, inaccurate, and fatally flawed that not even the low-information psychosis victims on Reddit are saying them anymore. You're just another boomer-minded leftist who's not sure what's happening but is convinced that "Trump=bad" and "must vote DNC!" — a pathetic assumption that that is every piece on the table. That's tw's delusion, and it has cost him his mind as it has plainly cost you yours.

The depth of your thought terminated the moment you graduated from college, filled with the bile of the Regime propagandists — accepted as "truth" with tacit obedience. You understood nothing. You gleaned nothing. You are just a coward not possessing even the mental control or tact to handle a lingering drunk party-goer without incident. That is your legacy: irrelevance, a will to ignorance, and dismissal even of your own concerns with the direction that the Regime is taking you, since in your tiny mind it "must" be that not emasculating yourself "must" mean that you have to wear a MAGA hat. You can only see the blinders strapped to your face, and to keep them even after so long, it must be that you prefer the tunnel vision.

Well I am a bit surprised that this is your summary of what is being said. Would you make that argument during any of the past centuries rise of authoritarianism? The maoist, Islamist, Khmer Rogue, Nazis they were superior in every way? Or was their rise a more complex affair?

The only thing I would actually point to and say the left is really good at, is organization and activism in part inherent to the collectivist mentality. You are a military man and should appreciate how feeble a numerically superior enemy is made to look by a much smaller group of organized soldiers. Arguably they are also more energizing as they are seemingly filling the gap that the death of god has left in the west.

There is also the asymmetry embedded in the issues as they are increasingly more complex, but the constituencies ability to grasp them has not scaled in tandem. Many examples, but I will point to socioeconomy and crime as one example, or the state of the third world at the hand of evil colonialist meddling. Yes leftist are very effective in providing dumbed down explanations for the ills of the world.

Start thinking about this as a new religious movement and a lot of things makes sense, billionaires are also religious. Take into account that these new religions without supernatural components are very appealing to educated people, who of course do not view them as religion. When Islam for instance spread to Iran, do you know who were to first to convert? Those who had nothing to lose and those who has everything to lose. For the losers it was a ticket out of misery, for the land owners a way to keep their shit from being confiscated or simply a continuation of their power/wealth under the new polity. This is very cynical, of course there are many many true believers as well.

[Seb]: "CCs posts are a string of ad-homs."

You're being reductive, and I think you miss this point:
I start in good faith, typically resetting for new threads. If, however, people have already started in that thread with bad faith and passive-aggressive baiting insults (as ep did here), then I mix insults with actual points from the start. But there *are* actual points right next to those insults. I'm not Dukhat or a lazy Lutheran; I don't just insult and then make no argument. This speaks also to your accusation that I'm "a troll". I'm not. The closest I've come to that is at the beginning of the totalitarians thread series when I was using sensational language to make fun of tw's Trump threads, but the sarcasm was pretty transparent and the information itself was still good. And I'm not "certifiable" either; you might just want to address why you yourself think that these things are "[crazy]" by asking if it would upset your worldview if they were entirely true.

So it's very simple: concerning vitriol, I return the favor.
If ep had tried to have a reasonable argument or tried to understand in good faith, then I would have made all of my points with none of the insults.

Understand that, Seb. I used to have long-winded debates even with you without a single insult, if you can remember that.


[Seb]: "justifying reinterpretation or indeed outright substituting their arguments with straw man"

Be specific. Where have I ever used a straw man argument? This sounds like more projection. I am very deliberate about sticking with the specific words that people use. I quote people so that people can see exactly what I'm looking at when I make my responses (with obvious exceptions, such as when I'm commenting directly below a short statement).

Also realize that I was continuing some arguments that I've had with ep before, so you may be missing some details. For instance, he has previously argued that the abundance of Democrats in BigTech is not because of infiltration but because Democrats are simply better educated... which I've pointed out ignores the infiltration of education which sourced those workers (hence why I mentioned the "long march"). He has also argued that it's the natural progress of a city to become Democrat simply because city-dwellers have specific logistical needs, which is why I brought up the "inevitable"-history fallacy. Complex conservative cities have indeed existed historically.

[Seb]: "justified by unproven accusations they are knowingly or unknowingly operating as cats paws for a shadowy political agenda."

• "Unproven accusations"? Which ones? Be specific. Ep demonstrated ignorance here, so those were proven; he legitimately thinks that it's capitalists doing this, and he said so.

• "Shadowy political agenda"? Nope. If that's a reference to my total-state threads, follow my citations. They themselves make these statements in public. There's nothing "shadowy" about it.
And this is something that perpetually amazes me about the left. You'd think you'd want to know what your own leaders have in mind for you. Why don't you read their statements at the UN or WEF? Is it just a lack of curiosity? Is it a belief that procedural democracies are populated with *benevolent* busybodies whose actions can therefore be ignored?

• But yes, I'll openly call people useful idiots. I think it's very appropriate. I've only spoken to maybe two people on the left who are actually aware of what's going on. In one case, the Atlanta Antifa organization is aware that radicals of the left and right are being used against each other, but they think that the fall of the West will benefit the left the most (finally, some honesty https://atlantaantifa.org/ ). In the other case, they oppose the fall of the West, but their complaint became semantic; they still blame capitalism, as ep did here. They take "capitalism" at face value when people such as Biden say, "I'm a capitalist!" But these oligarchs are specifically referring to "stakeholder capitalism", which is a deceptive rebranding which describes its opposite:
[World Economic Forum dot org; Davos Agenda; January 22nd, 2021]
http://www...-capitalism-history-relevance/

But most of the left — the useful idiots — remain totally ignorant of any of these macro movements yet follow the dictates at the micro level.

I know social media makes that difficult, but we can as individuals reach out to other individuals and cut through the cancerous noise.

We should also be careful to not throw people under the bus we rode together as soon as we find a disagreement. I am seeing a lot of this on the anti woke/progressive side. Centrists who are/were neither Trumpican or woke are getting it from both sides. We don't have to accept entire idea complexes to find that agreement and form an alliance for specific fights. I think just as you turn a page every thread, we should try to do that across topics and issues.
