Is political extremism mental illness? Or strong opinions?

Prove me wrong.

On the Left, defilement of the Body Temple.

On the Right, surrender to the Body Temple.

Linkroll

Even my favorite blogs aren’t always stellar…I know this, because I know my own blog. Many of my favorite posts are from blogs I don’t read regularly. With this in mind, I’ve decided upon a “Linkroll” approach. A rotating list of my favorite 10 posts/articles at any one time.

- - Profiles In Journalistic Courage: Marlow Stern of the Daily Beast (Michael Tracey, another brainily prolific Substack venture; if this post was any drier we’d call it Sahara)
  - Why 2007 was the worst year for the internet – An analysis of why the internet has declined since 2007(Kiwi Farms, timeless post from 2019; are reports of the internet’s death exaggerated?
  - The Latino vote (The Week, “LatinX” is utter BS and the gender divide is turbocharged in American Hispanic culture)
  - What is “Male Idiot Theory”? (Typical male-bashing from Medium. A light, BS piece which completely overlooks simple truths in favor of a Woke conclusion. The last paragraph epitomizes that mentality)
  - Origin of Covid — Following the Clues (Nicholas Wade’s assiduous examination of COVID’s origins, leaning heavily toward the lab leak theory. Mad scientists under the spell of money and ego might be responsible for 3,000,000 deaths. Anthony Fauci looking more like a weasel).
  - Political And Media Class Solemnly Commemorates Six Months Of Overwrought Whining About January 6 (Michael Tracey, again. Seems I can’t get enough of his ironic deconstructions. This piece expresses everything I feel about the January 6 petit-insurrection in Washington. The non-event has been manhandled by the Left and its media enablers into an epic national threat comparable to Pearl Harbor or 9/11).
  - The Covered-Up Crimes of Vaccine-maker Pfizer – Just Another “Too-Big-to-Fail” American Corporation (The real scandal is not 5G waves or prions or light-sensitive lipids or whatever else it is the rabid anti-vax crowd screams about COVID vaccines. It’s the money, the business, the moneyed attack on our bodies by corporations who have no problem throwing us into the lab rat cage as long as they can get business flowing again).

I’m beginning to wonder if political extremism is a form of mental illness.
