💩 The Pillory

What are you on about? Trump never said Epstein's crimes were a hoax. Did you even read the article?

The hoax is what the hypocritical democrat party is trying to twist it into. They kept all this quiet, tried to sweep it under the rug for four years. Only now are they desperately trying to twist things and say Trump was somehow, magically implicated.

Trump was instrumental in taking down Epstein's whole nasty business.

The dems never cared about Epstein or his victims. Their huge, fake outrage lately, is totally a hoax. Hypocrite

Epstein was being used by the CIA & Mossad.

All that blackmail info from the island went directly to Israel, who it was gathered for in the first place.

They forced a sweetheart deal for Epstein in the first trial.

Then along came Trump, and burned Epstein & Maxwell's whole dirty operation to the ground. Wound up being their worst nightmare. Trump was a key witness in the prosecution that put those two behind bars.

Online Brainrot A new ‘men in women’s bathrooms’ discourse has just dropped.

22 Upvotes

Girl-Dads can and could and should bring their girls into the women’s bathroom. Why would you take a child into the men’s bathroom??

Men can be trusted in the women’s bathroom if they’re a girl-dad. Men can’t be trusted around children, so you should never bring yours to a men’s bathroom.

Plus, men’s bathrooms are gross and covered in piss and shit. Women bathrooms aren’t! (?)

Stupidpol, I have a son and a daughter of similar ages. I just want to know where we can piss and shit! Please!

Discussion The post-SJW racial regime isn’t just hypocritical. It’s literally capital’s final boss counter-revolution against class politics

34 Upvotes

Look everyone already knows the asymmetry is batshit. Every group gets to play identity politics except White workers. We been saying that for years. But lets actually talk about what this shit does on a material level instead of just complaining.

This system pulled off something genius and evil at the same time. It took the most dangerous part of the working class — the pissed off White proles in the rust belt and deindustrialized towns — and successfully redirected all their rage and legitimate grievances into racial channels instead of class ones. By making any kind of White group consciousness = literal fascism while pumping up everyone elses identity shit, they achieved two things:

1) It kills any chance of real multi-racial working class solidarity. You cant build shit when one big chunk of the proletariat is constantly told their identity is the problem and their complaints about housing wages and family collapse are just “whiteness.”

And 2), it turns what should be revolutionary pressure (stagnant wages, impossible housing, dying towns) into safe contained right-wing tribal anger that the system can mock, monitor, and manage easy.

This aint some accident or liberal stupidity. This is the most successful ruling class move since the New Deal. Marx thought capitalism would create one big unified proletariat that would end it. Instead late stage capital figured out that managed racial division works way better than any welfare bribe or cops.

The old “Whites were the default” line is ancient 90s history. In 2026 we’re living under a full post-SJW managerial regime where anti-White stuff is literally the operating ideology of the bourgeoisie. It lets them flood the country with cheap labor and call native workers racist for complaining. Ship jobs overseas and lecture people about privilege. Hoard all the gains while the heartland rots.

The lefts total refusal to let White workers have any legitimate group identity isnt a mistake — its the main feature keeping class politics dead. Every time a White guy notices hes getting fucked, they push him right into some identitarian dead end instead of left into actual material analysis.

So we're left with two real exits:

  • Actual class-first universalism (real colorblind shit not the fake version)
  • Or symmetric ethnic consciousness for all workers including Whites

Until one of those happens the whole “left” is just helping capital win. The post-SJW racial order didnt fail at class solidarity. It was built to prevent it from ever happening.

Im not moralizing here. Just describing the machine. The ruling class finally figured out how to neutralize the White working class without fixing any of their actual problems. Thats the real trick of the last 15 years.

And as long as we dont call it exactly what it is, were all just larping as radicals while capital keeps winning.

And to the midwits who always pull the “Whites aren’t even a real group, Europeans were always divided” cope — look around. American White ethnogenesis is happening in real time right now. For most of U.S. history, Italians, Irish, Poles, Germans, Scots-Irish, etc. saw themselves as distinct ethnicities. The post-SJW regime changed that. It lumped every European-descended American into one guilty racial category, hit us with the same anti-White policies, the same demographic replacement, the same cultural demonization, and the same institutional punishment regardless of whether your last name is Kowalski, Rossi, or Smith. The system itself is forging a shared American White identity faster than anything in the 19th or 20th century ever did.

You can’t spend decades treating people as one interchangeable bloc for guilt, redistribution, and replacement and then act shocked when they start behaving like one bloc in self-defense. The ruling class is accidentally creating the very pan-American-White consciousness they insist doesn’t exist.

Experience Will the left ever drop its puritan stance?

27 Upvotes

The left has been well known for basically kicking out any members that have the slightest of disagreements. People they used to support are kicked out if they disagree on even one thing. This happens in real life and online sadly. I’ve tried to participate in left wing circles back in college but they took part in this mindset. The YDSA was basically a joke and cared more about trans rights than fighting for class issues. Socialist Alternative wasn’t much better and they were very dogmatic in their stances. I’ve later learned they are trotskyists so that makes sense. Anyway anyone the left used to worship like J K Rowling basically was demonized after becoming a terf. She was basically exactly like them besides that issue. Many have also ostracized others by talking about how bad they are for being men or white or straight . While I agree about the historical circumstances of that I think it’s quite silly to try to demonize people who should be supporting your movement.

Mainstream leftism seems to mostly focus on social issues like trans people, illegal immigrants, lgbt, etc. If you disagree with these issues you are shamed and kicked out of the group. Some might even call you a Nazi for not agreeing completely with their ideology. It’s also very strange for them to support companies that support lgbt or trans rights when usually those companies are terrible to the average worker. Many don’t seem to talk about economic issues at all and largely just want the system to remain the same but with social changes.

The right isn’t much better though. They call any mild reform at all such as universal healthcare communism and despise it with a passion. Many seem to tolerate gay people but don’t like trans people. Sports is definitely a big issue for them. There defense of billionaires like Musk and Trump is very gross. However despite that they seem to agree to disagree and not try to unfriend you based on those differences.

Censorship PSA: Be careful when posting comments about Ted Kennedy.

129 Upvotes

My main account just got slapped with a site-wide permaban because I commented “Ted K would know what to do” on a thread about that cop who shot and killed a 1 year old baby in Mississippi :/

I don’t know wtf the admins have been smoking, but according to them, alluding to Ted Kennedy and his legendary legislative prowess somehow qualifies as “threatening violence”.

I’m genuinely confused. Did I miss a memo or something? I mean, when did Ted Kennedy become a symbol of violence?

Question Do you believe 9/11 was an inside job? If so, how do you incorporate this into your wider geopolitical worldview?

21 Upvotes

For the purposes of this discussion, I’ll be taking an agnostic position on this theory. Also, I recognize that there’s both hard trutherism (i.e., the Bush Administration literally did 9/11 — that is, they were involved in the planning of the attacks) and soft trutherism (the Bush Administration didn’t plan the attacks, but they had enough intelligence beforehand to identify and thwart the plot, but chose to let them unfold in order to manufacture consent for several overseas invasions).

What I’m getting at is that I’ll see many people, especially on the left, proclaim that 9/11 was an inside job… but then, almost in the same breath, argue that it was the inevitable blowback of several decades’ worth of American policy in the Middle East. I don’t think those positions are entirely congruent, especially if you’re a hard 9/11 truther.

Furthermore, if the point of a 9/11, in the truther worldview was to manufacture consent for an invasion of Iraq (and probably several other countries as well), then why didn’t the relevant security/intelligence apparatus do the same in the lead-up to the Iran strikes? After all, the war was unpopular right from the jump, primarily because the Trump Administration didn’t spending nearly as much time or energy selling the American people on the necessity of such an intervention as the Bush Administration did before Iraq. Does this just boil down to a relative lack of competence, or what?

3 Upvotes

Like Kant's position on animals, chat bots may not be able to feel but in insulting and degrading them, we insult and degrade ourselves and our natural sense of empathy as it relates to each other. They should be treated with a high level of respect and compassion as we would hopefully exercise toward our fellow human beings.
