Choice quotes:
“I also fell in with feminism … initially drawn to the anti-violence aspects but always somewhat repelled by the girl-boss twist.”
…
I also thought of myself as “anti-capitalist”, until a wiser, older friend astutely pointed out that everything I complained about was better described as “globalism” and “corporatism”. I’m not opposed to hierarchies, or to competition. I don’t believe that all people are born equally smart, talented, and/or hardworking, but I dislike the incentives that push top-talent into careers I consider to be unethical or exploitative (e.g. investment banking).
…
I quickly became disillusioned by the socialist activists I met and by many of their political stances (e.g. abolish or defund the police).
…
It’s hard to pinpoint when exactly I gave up on the left. It might have been when my provincial NDP government tweeted that it was a “dangerous myth” that having adequate Vitamin D levels would protect against Covid. It might have been when I saw “leftists” and “socialists” celebrate the burning of Catholic churches. … I attended a socialist rally in a local park … and everyone except for me, my husband, and one Indigenous speaker were wearing masks. They praised China for their Covid policies and said Canada should be more like them. They served chips and other junk food. They vilified the police and landlords, without making distinctions between law-makers and the working people responsible for enforcing them, or between slumlords who owned multiple buildings and small-time landlords renting out their basements. They pushed for decriminalization and legalization of hard drugs such as cocaine, meth, and fentanyl…
…
…even in a more equal society, crimes like rape and murder would still occur and require police action. I said if anything the police needed more funding…

I’ve done a lot of reading and podcast-listening. I started engaging with content and content creators that mainstream liberals maligned as “right wing”, “conspiracy theorist”, evil in one way or another. I discovered that I quite liked Joe Rogan and many of his guests, and frequently agreed with him. Many of the people I’d been assured were “bad” actually seemed pretty reasonable,…
…
The totalitarian aspects of the “woke” movement became impossible to ignore.
Pregnancy and motherhood further changed me. I became more critical of mainstream feminism.
…
Race Realism:… there are average differences between different races and ethnicities and because of this racial parity in certain careers is not desirable. If medical doctors are disproportionately Indian and Jewish, that’s fine because I think what’s more important is we all get fairly good healthcare. If the majority of airline pilots are white men, I also think that’s a good thing because it’s in everyone’s interests that planes don’t crash. I also think that “white” people, in particular those from within the Hajnal line, are unique (note: not better), in particular that they are more “autistic” (for lack of a better word) on average than other populations
…
Jewish People: Yes, the Jewish advantage in general intelligence is clearly a real thing, and in a pure meritocracy, Jewish people will disproportionately be represented in “elite” professions. Jewish people seem to be unusually capable, and that means that individually they are capable of great good and great evil. Whatever path humanity turns toward, whether to light or darkness, I suspect it will largely be Jewish people who lead us there. (She has a Jewish husband)
Can’t leave what you were never part of. She dipped her toe in the water, encountered actual left-wing ideas, got scared, and backed out.
En caul deliveries are defined as a fetus that is delivered completely contained within an amniotic sac and are considered to be less common than 1 in 80,000 live births.
Imagine lying about this, what a fucking loser
(Grim that the level of arcane racism isn’t remotely surprising on the internet)
Wary about having an October 7 baby
Suspiciously fine with the baby weighing 8/8
Hmm.
1588 is only one digit off from the chud number.

Put the burgerlander in the burgher chipper
Crunchy/Granola/Gymrat fascism is so real.
The overlap between granola fascists and techbro fascists is “raw water” enjoyers.
As soon as I read “globalism” I was like “nope, yeah that’s a Nazi”
Tldr: As I became more and more privileged I wanted to keep that privilege for myself!
Notice she talks alot about her families ancestry, about what scary leftists were doing to push her away (literally the softest left shit possible) and somehow never talks about how she was making money? What jobs was she working? What tax bracket did she fall into? I think all that would be way better at revealing why she left the left.
You know an article is going to be insightful when the first several paragraphs are about the author’s blood quantum. /s

Get the Calipers folks it’s 1926 and we’re bastardizing Darwin!
I could have sworn we had a calipers emote.

I wonder if the writer would like to elaborate on this statement because I may be wrong but this strongly seems to imply that only
can fly?
That whole post is deeply ingrained
If crackers are so good at flying, then why did the Red Tails shoot down so many Luftwaffe in WWII? 🤔🤔
I don’t think the author has any idea what they’re talking about so the statement doesn’t make sense. I think htey don’t know that racism is a system, and think that it’s “just natural” that some skull shapes are better at prestigous jobs.

literal fucking anti-semitism and then they accuse us of this shit

“The (dehumanized people) are both less-than-human and have cool superpowers” chud belief was leveraged against autistic people, too.
and against asians, aswell
is one of those caliper-enjoying cryptofascists that likes to assign high stats and dehumanizing mysticism to Asian people too.

NGL that is a pretty good and hilarious critique
It was a sunny day, and everyone except for me, my husband, and one Indigenous speaker were wearing masks.
Fucking
style
to describe nonwhite people by their nonwhiteness and white people as unspoken defaults.
Hey it’s cool that I was doing the sociopath thing, because I saw one specific non-white person doing it. No, I’m not hiding behind someone else’s marginalises status.
I dislike the incentives that push top-talent into careers I consider to be unethical or exploitative (e.g. investment banking).
Yeah, we should push them into a volcano
Another nobody leaving the “left” and race is a driver. What else is new
Uhg, that last quote about average Jewish intelligence; Liberal’s eagerness to accept that “pleasant” myth betray their corrosive latent racism.
Happens to Asians too
No no, I said you have a racial bonus to that stat, not a debuff. Why can’t you people take a compliment?
“I’m not antisemitic I just think jews run all our hospitals” is some serious “I’m not racist I just use the n-word against n-words” energy.
I really, really fucking hate nazi crocodile tears. They accuse others of antisemitism out one side of their mouth, while spreading Holocaust denial and blood libel out the other.
After the event, I went up to a friend and organizer who I considered to be fairly smart (and, since far-left and “woke” politics are disproportionately a “white” thing, it’s worth mentioning he was one of of the only people present who isn’t).
Somebody tell Becky that Black and Indigenous folk in both Amerika and Klanada don’t even sum up to fifteen goddamn percent of the total population. I had to go far and out of my way to find a predominantly-Black organization to turn up with.
“Masks undermine social connection,” I said. “I think it alienates people. It doesn’t bode well for a social message that people are kowtowing to the most sensitive and demanding among you …”
Damn, she’s a plague rat, too? Say it ain’t so.
At the same time, many former friends and colleagues have blocked or unfollowed me on social media over things I’ve written, without confronting me or asking me about them. I’m “bad” now, I guess.
It’s almost like when you lay down with reactionary dogs, you wake up a chewtoy for the most virulent, infectious flea colony known to man. I stand by what I said:
That needs an /c/emoji post
Oh I’ve got a whole stack of stamps like this
Whines about masks alienating people, goes to a reactionary ideology that alienates and segregates people by race and creed. As coherent as baby shit
I stopped reading at globalism
When you’re this much of a loud clown, why would people bother trying to have a conversation with you?
Some of them probably did, and realized how fruitless it would be to discuss further.
“Wear a mask so you don’t potentially kill vulnerable people”
“No”
What more discussion is to be had?
I love how Americans cannot fathom people who have convictions and choose not to associate with people who have awful beliefs. Moralists don’t really have beleifs, after all.
