WHAT DO KIDS LICKING TOES, A LOCAL FIGHTING LEAGUE, AND ONLY FANS HAVE IN COMMON?
I recently noticed that an event is coming to my area where local, random men, can sign up to fight other random men, so other people can pay money to watch them punch each other. I then heard a story about children licking peanut butter off of toes at a school in Oklahoma and another story about OnlyFans.
All of these fans demonstrate our low anthropology and how lowly we think about what it means to be a human. The entire discourse sent me back to CS Lewis's "Abolition of Man." It has some lessons we need to learn quickly.
LOS ANGELES SCHOOL INDOCTRINATION VIDEO
A video has surfaced that is used in training L.A. teachers. In that video, they do a skit that informs a man he must use the "preferred pronouns" of a co-worker. They then tell him he "can believe whatever he wants," but he must "keep it out of the workplace.
Wait. Believing men and women are distinct has been every human's take for over 6,000 years of human history. About ten years ago, Woke white people changed their mind on fundamental biology. If anyone is bringing a cultic "belief" to work and forcing it on anyone else, it's the "transgendered" person.
EXPERTS ARE FINE, BUT SOMETIMES COMMON SENSE IS ALL YOU NEED
A recent conversation about what books should be in school libraries had me witness a grown woman claiming she didn't know if lewd, pornographic images should be available to elementary schoolers and that only "sex educators" would know.
We have over-romanticized the role of "experts." Sometimes, you just need some obvious, common sense.
