Deep dives
Chicago's Food Problem
Chicago is facing a food problem as grocery chains are reluctant to open new stores and existing stores are closing. The city has seen a 63% increase in the number of residents living more than a mile away from a grocery store since 2013. While some attribute the problem to racism and inequality, the actual cause is crime, shoplifting, and vandalism. Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson's proposed solution is to open government-owned grocery stores instead of addressing the underlying issues.
The Liberal Ruling Class and Anarcho-Tyranny
The concept of anarcho-tyranny is gaining traction, referring to a paradoxical state where the government heavily regulates citizens' lives while failing to enforce basic aspects of the law. The liberal ruling class turns a blind eye to looting and violence by BLM and Antifa, while harshly punishing right-wing individuals for minor infractions. This double standard allows the government to seize more power under the guise of maintaining order. Chicago serves as an example of how liberals view the city's problems as a success, while others see it as a failed city.
Religion, Politics, and Justice
Cardinal Manning's quote that 'all human conflict is ultimately theological' holds true in politics as well. Politics is deeply connected to religion, as it involves questions of morality, justice, and the nature of man. The issues of crime, law, and order are intertwined with theological matters because they touch upon the moral and ethical foundations of society. Merrick Garland's denial of a two-tier justice system is a prime example of how politics intersects with questions of justice and morality.
The Fallacy of Open Borders and Celebrity Influence
Louis C.K. argues for open borders, claiming that it's not good for America to have a better quality of life while others suffer. He believes that opening the borders would create change and alleviate the guilt of privilege. However, he overlooks the consequences, such as increased crime rates and threats to national security. Additionally, celebrity influence on politics and elections is a reality that cannot be ignored. Charisma plays a significant role in shaping electoral outcomes, and it is naive to argue against its impact.
Chicago prefers government-owned grocery stores to arresting criminals, Danny Masterson gets 30 years in prison over decades-old rape accusations, and Ukraine suspends the American transvestite military spokesman who threatened to murder us.
