#2 If I understand it correct, they have a Zoom for each little segregation box. I bet they are all just as stereotyped as "White Dudes".

When you see a man debase himself so thoroughly, ... you want to cry out, "For the love of all that’s holy, have some self-respect. There’s a thing called dignity! Try it out!"

Insufficient humility in those "dudes"?

HUMILITY
The moral virtue that keeps a person from reaching beyond himself. It is the virtue that restrains the unruly desire for personal greatness and leads people to an orderly love of themselves based on a true appreciation of their position with respect to God and their neighbors. Religious humility recognizes one's total dependence on God; moral humility recognizes one's creaturely equality with others. Yet humility is not only opposed to pride; it is also opposed to immoderate self-abjection, which would fail to recognize God's gifts and use them according to his will. (Etym. Latin humilitas, abasement, humility, from humus, ground.)


abjection
1: a low or downcast state; degradation;
2: the act of making abject; humbling, rejection;

#4 It's the conscience rejection of humility. It gives an exaggerated form of Dutch Courage. Don't underestimate it. It allows an asymmetric approach to an Overton Window move or worse, direct action like the Extinction Revolution storming Heathrow and spraying paint on the arrival departure boards or ruining classic art pieces.

#5 PJ Media:

And here's something more. Judge Merchan's daughter worked for and was indeed president of Authentic Campaigns, a political firm founded by Mike Nellis that raised money for Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, Adam Schiff, and Chuck Schumer. Loren Merchan fundraised on the trial her father was overseeing. The firm made multiple millions of dollars on the trial, according to the House Judiciary Committee. More on that in a minute.

Judge Merchan put a gag order on Donald Trump that prevented the former president from saying anything about his daughter and others involved in the trial. We can't have the Democrats' shenanigans getting into the open and ballyhooed by the guy with the biggest bullhorn in the business, now can we?

We now discover that Loren Merchan's partner at the political firm is the one who contrived the White Dudes for Harris knitting circle for beta males.

Julie Kelly reports that on the same day we found out about the astroturfed "white dudes" confab being overseen by Judge Merchan's daughter's business partner, the New York appeals court denied a Trump appeal to end the gag order and told the world about it. According to Judge Merchan's daughter's political business partner, they made $4 million on that Zoom call to help Trump's opponent.

The modified gag order will remain in effect until Trump is sentenced, which was supposed to be last month but was bumped to late September.

In the meantime, Jim Jordan's House Judiciary Committee has issued orders to Loren Merchan to preserve documents because, as one wag put it, there seems to be the stench of Fusion GPS on that outfit.
