Wow the fake news media is finally admitting what hundreds of women were saying for months. In fact, my aunt’s period lasted 21 days after her second dose
I disagree with mainstream conservatives that say getting a trade or industry experience is superior to a formal academic education.
Sure, there are certainly degrees that are pointless, like stuff ending in -studies.
But some academic programs like mathematics, physics and compsci allows you immerse yourself in the art.
For instance, you'll rarely find a software company that hires people who writes only C++ now. Most modern programs are built on frameworks, Python, NodeJS etc.
It's only really in academia where C++ and assembly are taught nowadays.
Of course money is important, but in my opinion, knowledge (not cash) is king.
I get really annoyed by people who use "how long have you been in the industry?" As an almost an ad-hominem attack against people who have knowledge but no "industry experience."

These kind of mainstream conservatives are used by our enemies to get us to surrender academia when we should be challenging left wing institutional hegemony

Weekly pro-Russia🇷🇺 Rant
Freedom is really about balancing the rule of law and corruption. For instance, very "stable" countries with very rigid rule of law become very dystopian and bureaucratic. Freedoms in these countries tend to be abstract, i.e. speech, expression, gay-rights, etc. But you can get fined or jailed for simply running a business without a registration, fishing without a license, not wearing a mask in public, not wearing a seatbelt or enjoying fireworks on your own property, and so on.
In my opinion, it's better to have a country where the government is just barely functional to protect citizens from foreign nations and to just let citizens live life the way they want. I see more of this in Russia than in the "democratic" west. The "democratic" west (lately) has become more draconian, imitating the CCP to a degree and from what I can see, Russia has been a lot freer in almost every way.

I don't go out of my way to make people of different races feel bad, in fact, I'm actively against making anyone feel bad for the sake of it.
That said, when a group of people are consistently over-represented in crime or negative influence. I'm not afraid to call it out, because it's the right thing to do for everyone.

“Forced freedom is slavery.”
Think about that for a moment. Are you truly free, if it’s illegal for you to voluntarily become a slave to someone? It’s quite a paradoxical yet interesting concept.

We don’t need laws against LGBT degenerates if people just bullied them back into the closet.
People with mental disorders have been bullied for thousands of years. Yet only recently has it has become a social taboo to do so.
