We got to see just how slyly they would crow about putting America first all through the 90s and 00s while selling America out to foreign interests. What I noticed in particular is that after the great recession, the Republican party went from being a party with a clear agenda with clear goals to being a total husk with no organization, no philosophy, and no backbone to do much of anything besides obstruct.
Even now it feels like the majority of Republicans are of that same see-nothing, think-nothing, and do-nothing mold. Worse, many are just wolves in sheep's clothing or empty suits who just hopped on board the Trump train out of expedience. All Cruz can do is talk about freedom and about Antifa while doing nothing of substance about any of it. All Crenshaw can do is look like a badass in an eyepatch while favoring anti 2A measures. Even Trump's boy Sununu in NH won't take a strong stance against CRT.
The Republicans have a golden opportunity but they themselves have been a shattered wreck for nearly 14 years with only one real hope of a vision that nearly half of them are trying to reject
I’m really not sure how to go about doing that.
Would you give me some instruction please, or point me to a place to learn about it?
Thank you,
Annette
I don't think this poor woman's husband is lying or scare-mongering:

Uncontrollable tremors are a reliable side effect of the MRNA vaccines:

Most people have a higher chance of winning the lottery or dying from lightning strike than dying of COVID. That is why it is unacceptable to push experimental MRNA "therapies" on the unwilling.
There's a lot of pressure on the other 10 percent when 90 percent of one's countrymen are dumb enough to get the jab. That's not karma I want, so that's why I say I'll fight to the death before I allow the so-called vaccine into my body.
You could also dedicate a few discursive meditations to some of her aspects, such as her marriages to Hephaestus and Ares, her origins in Cyprus, plants she likes such as roses and milkweed.

Men Are Now Too Afraid To Approach After years of being told that unwanted advances = harassment, men simply don’t want to risk approaching women out in the real world, for fear of being accused of a dark motive later.
Before this sterilized culture emerged, we would naturally send signals, some subtle and some overt, that acted as clues for us to determine if someone were romantically interested. Maybe we caught their eye across the room and held their gaze. Maybe we smiled at them on the bus. This would be the signal for a man to make a more overt move – approaching us to chat or ask for our number.
But why would a man make a more explicit move – or start the flirtatious dance at all – if he fears he’ll be rebranded as someone sinister just for doing so?
She correctly identifies a situation and makes a brave but incomplete attempt at a solution
If we want to revive a culture where it’s okay to flirt, the onus is really on women to make it clear to men that we’re okay with being approached in public – that we’re either going to accept their offer or politely decline, not brand them as a creeper if we’re not interested. (Men, of course, also need to clearly read our signals, whether they’re signals of interest or disinterest, and be willing to go away when we say no.)
This solution doesn't really address the fact that individual women can present a trap still for men to step on and blow their foot off. In practice how this can only happen is if women who engage in clearly false attention seeking are "canceled" and that can only happen if a society chooses not to simply "believe all women." (Who happen to not be accusing a Clinton or a Biden at the time)
This clearly won't happen. Why should it happen? Would it even be ideal if it did happen?
There is a big group of young women these days who bring very little to the table. They are often promiscuous, which is absolutely fine if you anticipate that your sex partner is going to be the exact same way, and of course they're hypocrites, they're looking for Mr. Faithful.
Of course young men aren't offering much either. This isn't their fault, as most of them have been raised to be lazy, thoughtless, spineless wussies. Even in my day, I didn't feel it was my job to enchant the overgrown man-child away from his video games and comic books. Puer Aeternis was annoying to date and he was EVERYWHERE. One of the biggest reasons I married an older man was not money (my husband was extremely poor when we married) but because he wasn't into video games and/or watching other men tackle each other on TV.
Another pet peeve of mine is men and women who are significantly overweight or average to below average in the looks department but who are obsessed with landing a piece of arm candy. Translation from the Bulls**tese in such cases is "Don't you dare judge me on my looks, which of course I'll do next to nothing to care about or maintain, but I'm going to choose you mostly for your good looks and then drain the life out of you with guilt in our relationship."
Then there are the women who accuse men of rape simply because the dudes were lousy and inconsiderate in bed. I'm thinking of Emma Sulkowicz, who carried a mattress around her university campus in a cringeworthy fit of pique. True to her name, Emma knew how to sulk! During the height of MeToo, Aziz Ansari, another lousy lay, suffered similar allegations. There's no going back from such a preening eunuch's culture. The cat's out of the bag. It will end when they are all 400 years in their graves and a new culture stirs from the ashes of the vanished industrial age.
Absolutely, there is an insane amount of entitlement among people and an unbelievable level of overestimating what they bring to the table. More accurately, a lack of any knowledge that there is anything they even should bring to the table besides their sack of bad habits and laziness.
"Changing myself is too hard so why not just complain loudly with all my similarly lazy peers until we change society?"
I suppose the underlying hidden logic is that if everyone collectively decides to stop trying then nobody will have to try ever again and the opposite sex will just be forced to take whatever they can find.

My whole life I've battled this particular affliction so I understand why people who are overweight feel like they can't change it. That still doesn't mean I'm going to bring them into my life so they can drag me down with them when I already make a life practice of keeping a healthy body. I'm hardly Adonis but I'm also not exactly difficult to keep up with if there's even minimal effort applied.
I swear the level of helplessness displayed by some of these people and the ridiculous "fat logic" they can come up with is out of this world. I think my favorites are things like "I'm just genetically fat" or "I don't want to eat too little because I've heard that your body goes into 'starvation mode' and hangs onto calories even more fiercely and you just get fatter."
I'd LOVE for them to show me all the 800 lbs starving African children whose bodies went into 'starvation mode' and turned them into pure fat blobs. Where are the pictures of WWII concentration camp victims who were half a ton each?

From the article it isn't even that anymore. You can just be less than attractive and make an awkward pass and be accused of a crime. That is the kind of behavior that would have to get a woman canceled and mocked endlessly online for this sort of thing to stop.
But that label is meaningless nowadays as you know, and a cursory look at their site reveals they pretty much nailed exactly what's happening right now.
So is this reputation they have well earned? Is it just more slander from the usual suspects? What caused their fall from influence?
