Emergency Brake

Guest Post by Chris Bray

then emergency exit

Give me five minutes to sum up a century, and to show where it leaves us.

Taylor Lorenz interviewing Chaya Raichik is an instant classic of anthropological fieldwork, and it tells us far more about the interviewer and the culture she represents than it tells us about the interviewee. I warn you that watching the whole thing rewards Taylor Lorenz with a click, but just look at the thumbnail to get started:

To get the whole flavor in condensed form, click here to watch an extraordinary five-minute excerpt. They’re talking about graphic sexual materials in schools, and Chaya Raichik shows batshit cat lady some of the images that are at the center of the debate. Then she asks batshit if she thinks it’s reasonable to show those pictures — graphic pictures of anal sex — to young children.

Batshit’s answer, around the 4:22 mark, takes a century of cultural decline and neatly distills it into a few seconds of lunatic babbling:

I guess…I don’t know. I don’t know. Because — you know who I would defer to on that, just because neither of us are sex educators? I would defer that question to a qualified professional, a sex educator, and say hey, you’re an expert, you’ve treated tons, you know, you’ve educated tons of people, you’re a full-time sex educator, you’ve really studied this. What are the appropriate boundaries? I don’t think that myself, as a journalist, or a media personality, I don’t think I’m the right one to make that decision. And I guess I’m wondering why you….I’m wondering why you feel like you’re qualified to be a sex educator when you have no background in that.

Should we sodomize kittens? Should old men recruit toddlers for dildo play? Should you invite middle-schoolers you meet on the street to your golden showers party in Vegas? Look, who can even say, right? I mean, do you even have a graduate degree in the field? There are simply no questions about appropriateness or decency or propriety that you can even begin to think about until the committee approves your dissertation. Bend over and defer, because you don’t have the credentials to understand the question.

Fuck these people, and fuck the hole they’ve dug. Chaya Raichik’s response: “I don’t want to be a sex educator — I just don’t want to give kids porn in school.” Of course. You know right and wrong, and the babbling idiot asking if you’re a credentialed sex educator knows it too. Leave children alone, scumbags, and stop pretending it’s complicated.

Remember that Christopher Lasch wrote about the displacement of family functions by the “helping professions,” starting with the Progressive Era, and remember what Charlotte Perkins Gilman wrote about bread, discussed in the middle of this post. The long descent into rule by experts is a project of cultural disempowerment, in which you — you personally — are being gaslit into abandoning your own eyes and your own mind.

Q: Should we show graphic sexual pictures to very young children at school?

A: Well, I don’t know, what are your credentials?

No more of this. Not another second. No more.

You can’t reason with insanity, indoctrination or just plain evil. We said gay marriage was a slippery slope that would lead to sexual perversion being normalized. Pretty much exactly according to script.

Opining on the sad state of journalism is Jeff Bezos’s vocal-fry champion,Taylor Lorenz, who said this week that “The entire journalism industry is basically in a free-fall,” and that the LA Times’ woes follow “months and months of layoffs in the media industry.”…

Despite her claims that she is a grassroots reporter that worked her way up from independent media into the halls of establishment journalism, Taylor Lorenz represents the quintessential media spin doctor. She is notorious for her consistent and often ludicrous defense of the Biden Administration, as well as her constant attacks on the alternative media; specifically on conservative YouTubers and social media accounts like Libs of TikTok…

Lorenz argues that she wouldn’t want to live in a world where people get their news from sixty second TikToks (while posting her appeal to TikTok), but she knows full well that it’s not TikTok journalism that’s taking the legs out from under organizations like The Washington Post – It’s the growing prevalence of the alternative media which she has lambasted for a large portion of her career.

I find it hilarious that Chaya is wearing that picture of Taylor on her T-shirt – an epic troll if there ever was one!

I saw it being made and it is a quite fascinating process.

Forgot to mention, but when my son had his roof replaced, the 1X8 fir decking did not meet code and they required him to overlay with 7/16″ OSB to meet code.

If your answer to the question “Should kids be viewing explicit perverted porn in school?” is “We should defer to the experts.”?

You have zero credibility.

Prediction:
Taylor Lorenz will be murdered by a black homeless person.

Gee I wonder why newsprint is dead?

Me “Is showing graphic porn to kindergartners wrong?”

Taylor “We should defer to the experts.”

Me “Is putting down a peson who enables sexual predators wrong, Taylor?”

Taylor “I don’t understand the question.”

Me “I know you don’t.”

One less wicked bitch sacrificing children on the altar of her preferred perverts.

Pipe/bats are reusable 1,000’s of times. Also, you can make them dig the hole if you’re low on fuel. Of course this is the behavior of the Socialists themselves and antithetical to the American ideal. Here is a Khmer Rouge example:

These people can not distinguish male or female…until they are showing the kids explicit porn?

I never knew what an idiot Taylor Lawrence was until I listened to this interview. First of all, she sits outside in the fresh air wearing her virtue-signaling mask when nobody else on the street is wearing one or is needing one. Her interview was filled with false equivalencies and gotcha-questions over and over again. She equates free speech with slander, free speech with pornography exposure to children, and free speech with exposure of children in schools to literature and photos that are not age-appropriate or appropriate in terms of decency and offensiveness.
