It was a tough call. But it seems that it will be men who were frat boys who finally sort things out. It won’t be the sorority girls now running the universities. And it won’t be the creepy boys like peeping toms who were too weird to get a pledge card from anyone. You know the ones - the guys no one liked for good reason.

It will be former frat boys and wrestlers and football players and band and chess guys who sort things out.

Part of the MO of the universities is to get rid of as many of these as possible because they are a direct threat to the activism they are inculcating in the students. They seek lost and lonely souls to populate their ranks.

As a fraternity brother I couldn't agree more with your post.

I don’t know about today’s kids, but despite all the wild partying in the 80s, my age group fraternity brothers and I became very successful men and leaders in life. Through the decadence, we learned very strong values . . . somehow. We still meet as a group every year. I love those guys.

Expand full comment

Community is everything in civilization - joint support of valued behaviour builds healthy communities. You had examples of strong leadership and became leaders.

Our son went to his first dance with his friends in 7th grade - eager to dance. I asked him if he was nervous: No - we all dance together and no one will bother us.

I asked him how he and his hockey playing, rock climbing friends avoided the Sunday morning disciplinary committee problems from Saturday night behaviour of some of this boarding school classmates: We look after each other.

They knew about protecting their pack. And along the way they learned about getting the work done and leading others. He and the former frat brothers will make the difference soon.

Your piece today is a multi-vitamin of superb cultural references. Too numerous to mention.

Somewhere around 2008, I made my first excursion to DC. Rumors/reports had it that the left had plans to deface the Wall. Me (USChairForce), my son (Army) & a buddy (USMC) went, as did many other veterans, so that they’d have some obstacles to overcome to FAFO. Nothing came of it.

But I got a great life lesson. The various professional protesters (which may make up the majority of DC) were the most decrepit, anemic, pitiful bunch of losers you’ll ever encounter. I realized that all these years what we saw on the 6 o’clock news, was - if not staged- highly selected and edited to fit an anti-American message.

Now we know there was probably a lot of left-wing money subsidizing that circus.

i attended a conference in Chicago in December 2015 - must have really ticked off the boss to get that assignment. while i was taking a lunchtime walk a young woman with a clipboard approached me and asked me to sign a petition to "protect trans rights". i started laughing very loudly and conspicuously. she turned about eighty seven shades of red. the leftists and the demonically evil can't abide one bit of mockery.

Have you seen the tables set up outside Lowe’s and other places soliciting donations to Stop Bullying? I’m surprised Babylon Bee hasn’t had a field day with that one.

How did you handle bullies growing up?

Expand full comment
founding

I was taught to:

1. Avoid bullies at almost all costs

2. Flee if at all possible.

3. If the bully cannot be avoided, ignore him for as long as possible.

4. Know how to take a punch

5. As a last resort, know how to properly make a fist and throw a punch - not to the bully's face, but to the body/midsection.

Then once you're in it, fight to win - fight dirty - kick, bite - and if he's down, make sure he stays down.

It only happened once - he did not die, but he didn't return to school for a week, after which we gave each other a mutually wide berth.

He and his minions knew better than to involve any authorities.

Real bullies understand only only one thing - brute force.

Amazing how you figured all that out on your own, and implemented your plan in a reasonable fashion- without help from a fake charity.

BTW- I asked the people manning the tables if they were compensated. They admitted it.

I didn't figure it out - I was taught by my dad after I complained about a bully in 6th grade - we'd just moved to a new town.

ok...here's my story. 5th grade in clio, mi. in line to get on the bus (lived in country going to a country school). bigger kid knocks me out of line, cut in front me and i fall into a mud puddle. girls laugh at me. next day same thing. three days in a row. snow, mud and humiliation. third day at home at the dinner table....mother (we called them mother back then): "why are your clothes muddy and your elbows red?" me: "i got pushed into the mud for the 3rd day in a row". mother: "do you want me to go to the school and fight your battle? i will have to take a day off from work but if that's what you need....." me: "no mother, i can handle this". mother: "good hunting".

note: my dad died when i was 6 so mother was the entire posse. next day i get in line, the guy cuts in front of me and goes to push me away....i hit him with my roy rogers lunch bucket, bloody his nose and he starts to cry. girls actually do like alpha males. never had a problem moving forward. now a days mom would go to the school, get somebody fired, sue for a few million...and win. new world order. estrogen is winning and testosterone is dying. that was in 1958 and i was 10 years old.

The “skin in the game” aspect is what most exposes all the Woke causes to be the fully ”astroturfed” theater that they are. These are false and fraudulent “fights”, all orchestrated to pit people against one another, demanding irrational and imaginary rights. No one has the right to rape, torture and murder another person, or to mutilate children, or to rob and steal and destroy without consequence. That is insanity and depravity at its core. They cannot tell us what we can speak, or think, or believe, or buy or sell. Yet this is the world they are insisting upon, attempting to force upon us.

All these hysterical showcases (since 2020), are funded and masterminded by an enormously vast network of groups and individuals who embody extraordinarily sinister and evil aims to literally teardown Western civilization and all that it has accomplished in truly liberating and benefiting the wider world.

In return, they seek to usher in a dystopian system that seeks to erase all ability of individual effort and opportunity for those seeking a life of liberty and the pursuit of happiness for themselves, their families, and their communities

We are battling against the tyranny of a minority, a cabal of mega-wealthy, diabolical and deranged persons who seek to confiscate the wealth of nations only to maximize their own power and self-aggrandizement, and subjugate the peoples of the world.

It’s the stuff of novels and fiction, yet all too real, happening in our very lifetime, and right before our very eyes.

We are the ones who have “skin in this game”, because they seek to strip us of all our hard earned and God-given rights and freedoms in exchange for their world of lunacy, chaos and slavery.

What was that chant from the ‘60’s?

“Hell No ~ We Won’t Go”.

Boy do I remember Vietnam! And the draft. And watching Cronkite, thinking, "Those body counts can't be right. They killed four of us and we killed six-hundred? Something's wrong."

Then things got worse. Ordinary families got tired of sending their boys off to war, so they pressured the administration to eliminate all college deferrals and go to a straight lottery. If you were in, you were in; out, out. After the birthdays were read, I'll never forget my older brother's phone call: "Congratulations, 310!" To this day I still remember my lottery number.

I'd BEEN shot-at; I didn't like it, and I figured that if somebody invaded MY woods, I could wear them out. Those scrawny North Vietnamese guys in black pajamas? Those were THEIR woods, and a 6'1" red-headed pasty-white guy would make an exquisite target.

Mine number was 134 which was low. I had just graduated from college and gotten married and I knew I was going to be drafted, so I enlisted in the Air Force with the hope of being able to 1. Stay in the States (aka avoid being sent to Viet Nam) 2. To start a part time graduate degree program, and 3. To try keep Mama happy. Obviously, No. 3 was the most important.

Why are the Hamas Loving rallies getting no traction?

1. They are morally wrong.

2. October 7th videos clearly show that Hamas/Palestinians are Savages

3. While many Americans may not like Jews, they dislike Arabs more

4. The participants are DEI educated dummies who have no historical or moral basis for their protests

5. It’s election year, and people are fed up with the George Floyd Antifa BLM BS.

6. Colleges used to educate now they indoctrinate.

7. Most Americans care about their real problems, 40% inflation, crime, health care etc, not MSNBC or Washington DC manufactured problems.

8. With social media, most people are not interested in what dumb assholes have to say, if they were they would watch FJB speeches every day.

9. Most Americans are Christian’s and they support Israel.

10. Those that are interested are like me. They like the UFC and are waiting for a good beat down of these thugs by the police or average Americans
