Dennis Prager doesn’t think the Nazi slogan, the 3 Ks is bad. The German slogan describes that a woman’s place should be limited to the children, kitchen, and church. The Majority Report crew discusses how they are not surprised by Prager’s view aligning with fascists. The MR crew talks about how Prager and those on the Right like him do not want women involved in politics and the hierarchy Nazis wanted to maintain.
Kyle REACTS To Jordan Peterson Going HAM On Twitter, Elliot Page | The Kyle Kulinski Show
Twitter must be like a drug. I have never used it and so I will never miss it. But then I see these people get banned and act like their primary drug dealer stopped selling to them.
Being trans and being able to be yourself is wonderful. But many of us still go through depression because Society still treats us in many ways like pariahs. And then when we end up committing suicide they use that to State that it was because we transitioned and not because we get treated like second-class citizens or social deviants. Which by the way show me a person who isn’t a deviant in some way shape or form, and I will show you a person who is probably deeply repressed about something or another.
Lets say my name is “Jordan Peterson” & I’m engaged to a woman named “Blow-Up Barbie” — jk— my fiancés name is “Jessica Williams.” We get married & she takes my name. Known now as “Jessica Peterson”.
She fills out the paperwork for a legal name change to “Jessica Peterson” & begins introducing/re-introducing herself as “Jessica Peterson”.
Jessica has a Ex- boyfriend who never got over their break up & lives in the same town — we’ll call him “Kyle”.
Any time Kyle sees jessica, he insists on calling her “Jessica Williams” despite being asked to use her married name.
Kyle & Jessica also have a couple of mutual friends. Any time her name is mentioned (“Jessica Peterson”) in conversation, Kyle will interrupts & say “you mean ‘Jessica Williams’?”
When asked why he insists on calling her by a name she no longer uses herself, Kyle responds by saying “I don’t know a ‘Jessica Peterson.’ As far as I’m concerned, her name is & always will be ‘Jessica Williams.’ For 25 years her name was ‘Jessica Williams’, & one day she wakes up deciding to change her name to ‘Jessica Peterson’ & now I have to play along with her delusions?!”

Who’s the asshole here?If your answer is anything other than: “The ex boyfriend”, please seek help on your hands & knees in traffic. ✌️
He’s a very troubled, angry man and should probably focus on straightening out his own house before attempting to fix the world according to his own archaic and arbitrary version of morality.
As someone who has undertaken a transition myself, I do not hear any measure of compassion in Jordon’s words. Kyle did a great job in this segment with just exercising some basic empathy for making counterpoints. Thank you Kyle!
JP is more upset about people choosing procedures that make them happy than the fact that he is banned.

Richard Rohr Meditation: Radical Politics
If you walk around with hatred and prejudice in your heart and mind all day, morally you’re just as much a killer as the one who pulls out the gun. That seems to be what Jesus is saying. The evil and genocide of World War II was the final result of decades of negative and paranoid thinking among good German Christians, Catholic and Lutheran. The tragic fascism of Nazi Germany was fomenting in people’s hearts long before a political leader came to catalyze their hate and resentment. Now it seems we are seeing the same in the United States.
Jesus tells us to not harbor hateful anger or call people names even in our hearts like “fool” or “worthless person” (Matthew 5:22). If we’re walking around all day thinking, “What an idiot he is,” we are already in the state of sin. Sin is more a state of separation and superiority than any concrete action—which is only the symptom. How we live in our hearts is our real truth.
.. Jesus insists that we love our enemies and pray for those who persecute us (Matthew 5:44). For Jesus, prayer seems to be a matter of waiting in love, returning to love, trusting that love is the unceasing stream of reality. Prayer isn’t primarily words; it’s an attitude, a stance, a state that precedes “saying” any individual prayers. That’s why Paul could say, “Pray unceasingly” (1 Thessalonians 5:17). If we think of prayer as requiring words, it is surely impossible to pray always.
Sessions’s Use of Bible Passage to Defend Immigration Policy Draws Fire
Many were concerned that Mr. Sessions’s chosen chapter, Romans 13, had been commonly used to defend slavery and oppose the American Revolution.
.. The directive has led to the fracturing of hundreds of migrant families, funneling children into shelters and foster homes.
Mr. Sessions said, “I would cite you to the Apostle Paul and his clear and wise command in Romans 13, to obey the laws of the government because God has ordained the government for his purposes.”
He added: “Orderly and lawful processes are good in themselves. Consistent and fair application of the law is in itself a good and moral thing, and that protects the weak, it protects the lawful.”
.. “The founding fathers created the criminal justice system to be a largely secular criminal justice system,” he said. “They didn’t have in mind punishing criminals and condemning them using Bible verses.”
.. Before the nation’s founding, it was frequently used by Loyalists to oppose the American Revolution, Dr. Fea said. And in the 19th century, pro-slavery Southerners often cited the chapter’s opening verses to defend slavery — in particular, adherence to the Fugitive Slave Act, which required the seizure and return of runaway slaves.
.. Outside the United States, the passage was used by Christians in Europe to defend Nazi rule and by white religious conservatives in South Africa to defend apartheid.. “It’s an endorsement of empire,” Gay L. Byron, a professor of the New Testament and early Christianity at the Howard University School of Divinity, said of the passage on Friday. “Whenever governments need to try to gain leverage in a debate, they say something like that.”.. Mr. Sessions cited the Bible in his speech because he was responding to religious leaders’ criticism of the zero-tolerance policy on illegal immigration... Sarah Huckabee Sanders, the White House press secretary, addressed the issue on Thursday in response to a reporter who asked, “Where does it say in the Bible that it’s moral to take children away from their mothers?”Ms. Sanders responded that she was not aware of what Mr. Sessions was referring to but added that it is “biblical” for a government to enforce the law. “That is actually repeated a number of times throughout the Bible,” she said.
.. Dr. Byron, the divinity school professor, said Mr. Sessions’s use of the passage is a classic case of a politician “cherry-picking” the Bible for statements that match their policy. “What’s missing is the fact that there are so many other biblical statements and mandates to take care of children and take care of those who are marginalized,” she said. “We don’t hear Sessions referencing those texts.”
