When I interviewed with Glenn Beck back in 2022, he asked me if I liked Donald Trump. I told him you can’t watch Trump’s rallies and come away not liking him. So why had I spent the previous five years hating Trump with a white-hot passion?

It was a combination of tribalism gone wrong and a media/social media feedback loop that kept fanning the flames of hate and rage. Most of us were helpless against it.

Like so many others who have emerged from the mass delusion sold to us by the media and the government, I have wanted to explain to those still trapped inside that the only thing they have to fear is fear itself. That’s easier said than done when the voices they trust and the media they read keep pumping them full of it.

The ideology is so baked in, the certainty that Trump is the Greatest Evil the World Has Ever Known, or as my mom likes to call him, “That Monster,” it is impossible to explain to her that Trump isn’t who she thinks he is.

There is panic in her voice, as if I am telling her something she can’t accept or hear coming out of my mouth. I am now what she has been conditioned to hate. But I’m also her daughter.

Kamala Harris now has supporters screaming at little children in strollers.

Will @KamalaHarris or her campaign @KamalaHQ condemn this atrocious behavior?

They can’t pretend they don’t believe Trump supporters are “garbage.” Most of them do. I know, I come from that world. Very few offer any kind of compassion, empathy, or the benefit of the doubt - nothing. If they could put them all in gulags and get rid of them, they would not hesitate.

Does that make them bad people? I don’t think so. I wrestle with it. I think they are victims of a closed system, a feedback loop one might get if they were in a closed community, like the Amish or Scientology. The internet allowed them to build that kind of inside/outside world.

They’ve paid a price for shunning and exiling half the country. No one watches the movies, reads their news, has any investment in anything going in the culture because it’s become a mono-culture and that makes it BORING. That is probably the thing that will eventually end the madness. A Trump win will speed it up.

I feel bad for them more than I hate them. Their worldview has become so small. I always tell them to turn off MSNBC, stop reading the New York Times, unplug, and get to know their fellow Americans. It’s so much better outside of the fear bunker.

Superintendent's Secret Anti-Trump Life Exposed

Pennsylvania Superintendent bashes America and Republicans under a fake name.

While many teachers and educators across the country are being exposed for their openly vile comments attacking President Trump and his supporters, some have taken to the shadows in an attempt to hide from the public.

One of these alleged individuals is Sam Danson, or should I say Joey Maluchnik, the superintendent of the Wilkinsburg School District in Pennsylvania.




For days after the presidential election, Joey Maluchnik allegedly took to Facebook under the name “San Danson” to make numerous anti-American and anti-Republican posts.

In some of these posts, he disparaged Trump voters, labeling Trump-voting PA residents as racists, fake Christians, rapists, bigots, and sexists. He also claimed that people who supported Trump are “bad parents” and referred to Republicans as “Nazis.”




In various other posts, “Sam Danson” bashed his own country. He changed his profile banner to an upside-down American flag while calling Donald Trump a “domestic enemy” and labeling Trump’s supporters as the "enemies in your towns."

He also encouraged active military servicemen to refuse Trump’s orders as Commander in Chief.




... I reached out twice to the school district for their comment regarding Joey Maluchnik’s alleged posts. However, shortly after contacting the district, “Sam Danson’s” entire profile was deleted from Facebook. With still no response from the school, parents may be showing up to the next board meetings on November 19th or 26th to voice their concerns. ...

Our educational institutes are meant to be places where children learn reading, writing, science, and arithmetic. Instead, they have been transformed into dens of political indoctrination, constantly pushing woke ideologies on young impressionable minds.

A leftist California high school teacher has been placed on administrative leave after audio clips exposed his profanity-laced classroom rant over President Donald Trump’s re-election.

During his anti-Trump meltdown, the teacher warned students they could be put in “concentration camps” under the new administration.

He continued by blaming “racist” voters and “the patriarchy” for Vice President Kamala Harris’s crushing defeat.

American Culture Project senior fellow Corey DeAngelis shared audio of the fiery rant taken by a student in the teacher’s classroom at Valley View High School in the Moreno Valley Unified School District and posted it to X.

DeAngelis identified the teacher as Maximiliano Perez.

Every atrocity in history now makes sense to me.

Yep.

COVID was the greatest lesson of all in my life. How flippin' stupid people are, they will dismiss Natural Immunity, the definition of vaccines, and all the other shit they learned their whole freakin' lives and just obey the Current Thing from the Authorities.

And being an MD or whatever is no insurance, much less a BA.

100% the government lost more trust with Covid than any other even in recent history. Permanent loss of trust that will not go away until the affected population is completely gone which will take generations.

Bill Clinton is lying as usual.
No fucking way was he that upset that his harpy hag bitch wife Hillary lost to Trump.

Within two weeks, she'll be fucking this guy.

Every atrocity in history now makes sense to me.

What's interesting to me is how she never even considers that the guy might have very good reasons for his beliefs. She doesn't want to know.

Why is that thing even alive?

Pffft... Because it's Gorlock the Destroyer obviously.

the authoritarian/leftist intersect seems to always focus on individuals and avatars as “prime movers” imbuing movements and times with purpose and doctrine. they do not become fixated upon the positions or the values of that which they oppose so much as the people. the idea of emergent order or opinion is conspicuously absent.

they may care about roe v wade or climate, but it’s always “trump did this” and “musk did that” and always myopia and selective blindness to european standards for abortion or celebrities taking private jets to collect climate awards. there is no consistency nor any seeming whole or holistic framework.

such variance of standard on in group/out group belies a lack of general case logical or ethical thinking or extrapolation from first principles. instead, this collage of viewpoints tends to be tribal allegiance rather than intellectual underpinning. the fact that the tribe has mistaken itself for intellectual and critical (right down to naming their theories after it) makes this far more flagrant. in fact, this is, to great extent what gives rise to the problem:

there is no critical thinking allowed in critical race or gender theory. ...

so what is taught instead is the aping of critical thinking by the rote memorization of case by case tribal position enabling and ennobling what ultimately amount to arbitrary sets of rules to “be in the tribe” and be told you’re a good little boy or girl or whatever dizzyingly complex bespoke pronouned ersatz identity has been foisted upon you.

this elevates a very different sort of person to prominence, captive thinkers and memorizers rather than free thinkers and analyzers.

it’s also simply awful for those who do think critically, a suppressive tour of false education and assessment, a doctrinaire force feeding devoid of nourishment. it drives them away. selection become adverse.

and pretty soon you have a complex system of thought that few (if any) of the individuals who comprise it are capable of actually assessing for accuracy or consistency. everyone is just following some guru who followed some other guru turtles all the way down until just about no one has any ideas what any of this means and a few “bosses” are interpreting everything for everyone with the hyper-prickly exclusionist zeal of medieval popes.

what pervades is not as spirit of inquiry but rather one of inquisition.

meanwhile, such a system is infinitely seductive to low identity followers who form the marrow and musculature of a new sort of cargo clerisy. these are the “upper midwits” who so willingly subsume self to the useful idiocy of playing at tribal teleological enforcer because to gain the coveted hall monitor sash and lord power and position over those smarter than one, all one need do is memorize by rote, regurgitate upon demand, and brook no deviation or dissent. you just learn whatever new word be it “racist” or “sexist” or “fascist” or “transphobe” that has been semantically mapped onto “heretic” and off you go! easy peasy.

the selector is not for intellect but rather for obedience.

as a result this scupper collects all the aspiring head girls and lead boys as it offers the promise of vaulting the lesser up onto the vaunted perches of elite intellect by displacing and discrediting those who belonged there.

perversely, this seems to carry with it an inherent need for the organizing dogmas to be false, even ostentatiously so.

after all, what better way to purge the sound of mind and extensive of vision than to claim that up is down, sideways is straight, and ruin is renovation until no right thinking person can inhabit the hallucinatory landscapes of your contrived cancel culture?

what could be a more perfect strainer to remove competence and accuracy and supplant it with doctrinaire dictatorship than immediately casting anyone who gets the right answer to “how many genders am i holding up, winston?” into the struggle sessions of cancel culture and branding them bigot and oppressor? ...

and so it is natural for them to presume that other ecosystems function likewise. but they don’t. those capable of critical thinking did not go away. they did not stop thinking, they were silenced, buried beneath omerta and proscription. ...

the university as institution has been destroyed and stripped of its original purpose, colonized by weak, useless people, but the purpose itself perseveres persisting and thriving in new environs and ushering in an era of unprecedented access and true popular populism in intellectual, economic, political, and philosophical ideation.

social media is the new academy. ...

the authoritarian left experiences this as assault and erasure, as genocide. they keep doubling down on “but muh credential” and “but all this stuff i memorized” but bringing doctrine to a critical thinking fight is like bringing concrete foot blocks to a game of tag: you just lose. bigly. ...

the whole thing has become wonderfully self defeating, a doubling down on becoming less rational and less consistent and ever more dogmatically demanding with each new interaction with the very critical thought the authority left apes but cannot achieve. each iteration invites and enables the next takedown and weakening of “the campus” yet further.

it’s like fighting ants with jam.

this battle is long since over.

and the fun is just getting going as we retake that which was ours.
