Well, now it’s really official. After being blocked this morning, then unblocked (after being defended by Jimmy Wales), I have now, as of this evening, been “blocked indefinitely” from editing Wikipedia. The charges are lies and misrepresentations. More soon.
Well, that’s that—I’ve been blocked by Wikipedia “indefinitely” for unstated reasons, by the “consensus” of a mob. There was no due process, no prosecutor, no dispassionate judge, no jury, no interpretation of law. All my judges were self-selected and hated me. 🤣

One thing that many people don’t realize is that Christianity has stuck around for 2,000 years in large part because it is a remarkably coherent system of belief. This is why generations upon generations of the most brilliant Western minds could be quite sincere Christians. The Bible not only withstands probing questioning, it invites it: you cannot understand it in the manner its authors evidently intended it to be understood *unless* you deeply probe the text. The same is true of theology. While Christian theologians have not all agreed on questions of detail, they have agreed on many broad and important doctrines, which together render the biblical narrative clear, rational, and beautiful. These are things that are poorly understood by non-Christians. I certainly did not understand them until I read the Bible all the way through, getting my questions answered reasonably well. I was shocked at how coherent and compelling the system was that emerged from this process—when it was merely the Bible properly understood according to orthodox Christian doctrine.

Elon Musk's statement seems like a potential watershed. There's been a shameless full-court press: The Establishment has done all it can to legitimize flooding countries with illegal immigrants. This propaganda push did its work for over a decade, and we're living with the results. Now liberals think they are obligated to defend open borders or be "racist," but this is increasingly looking indefensible. This nearly-universal open border policy must end. The badness of the policy is nothing new, as far as I'm concerned—it was a bad idea from the beginning.
When Tolkien wrote about the hobbits, he was referring to the gentlefolk of the English shires, who don’t realize the horrors that take place far away. They were able to live their lives in peace and tranquility, but only because they were protected by the hard men of Gondor. What happened to the nice man who was brutally murdered while walking his dog will happen to all of England if the tide of illegal immigration is not turned. It is time for the English to ally with the hard men, like Tommy Robinson, and fight for their survival or they shall surely all die.

You know, facts exist. They will not accommodate themselves to your political sensitivities. Either there was widespread child sacrifice in the New World before Columbus, or there wasn’t. Considering that human sacrifice was well-known, why assume there wasn’t child sacrifice? When life is cheap, the lives of children are generally especially cheap. Pointing out facts is not racist. Anyone who says so is to be avoided.
🚨 JD Vance just claimed that when settlers arrived in the New World, they “found widespread child sacrifice,” adding that “Christian civilization ended the practice.” Archaeologists, including those specializing in North American history, are calling this a flat-out lie. There is no evidence of widespread child sacrifice among First Nations. To say that about Indigenous people is historically false, deeply racist, and disgustingly revisionist.
