Mr. Kneel their has shown his true colours, and nothing and no one should ever take him seriously again.]

This is so true.

Suspension of liberties through medical tyranny must come from a supernatural evil. Its cosmic jiujistu of some kind. A surprisingly strong shot to the soft underbelly of many old men. Even men who previously cut through the smoke screens.

Exhibit A: The God-Emperor Trump. He was legendary for his handwashing and avoiding physical contact, eschewing drink and dip and drugs for his health. This covid/health scare found his soft spot and exploited it right as we needed the man to grow into even more Xi/Putin category, instead he’s schlepping vax’s just like Kamala is now.

Exhibit B: What the hell happened to N. Nasim Taleb? This guy writes entire tomes eviscerating the Intellectual Yet Idiot class. He carves his name deep into the tombstones of other public intellectuals. He’s the king of nonintervention in Antifragile, that the key to health is your native foods and barbell weights. Then this mask and vax mandate comes along, and he’s arguing from the perspective of RISK MANAGEMENT that the tail risk from covid is so bad, any extengincy to combat it is acceptable, regardless of the cost of that reactive measure.

Exhibit C: Your cuckservative buddy Andrew Neil, who is clearly always of the David Brooks ilk: Posturing and gatekeeping and a petty liar for clicks.

Why do these men crumble when others grew in strength? Examples: Ron DeSantis grew stronger, Vox Day grew stronger (or stayed solid, he’s always a Dread Lord), Tucker Carlson cuts through the smoke like a hurricane all the time.
I’m not sure there is a universal answer for this, but if there is, I suspect it is closely related to winnowing a wife from just another woman:
Is the heart pursuing the good the true and the beautiful, or just contrarian and basking in the attention from quarreling?
