https://chriscillizza.substack.com/p/tim-walz-has-a-bad-case-of-main-character Chris Cilizza writes: Tim Walz was a dud as vice presidential pick. He added zero to the ticket. In his one big moment — the vice presidential debate with JD Vance — he got beat. Badly. And looked hopelessly out of his depth. None of this is to say that if Kamala Harris had picked someone other than Walz she would be president right now. History tells us that VP picks almost never make any real difference. And I think that's true this time too. Had Harris picked, say, Josh Shapiro, she still would have lost. To my mind then, Walz was a sort of historical blip. Plucked from relative obscurity by Harris and then, after losing, sent back to that relative obscurity. Which isn't nothing! Being a governor of a state is a big deal! Being the VP nominee is a huge deal! But, in politics, water usually finds its level. And Walz's level was not — and is not — national politics. This is obvious to anyone who has spent any amount of time covering or watching politics. It is not obvious, however, to Tim Walz. Since the election loss, Walz has slowly but surely tried to fashion a narrative that he was under-utilized during the campaign. And that had he been properly deployed a) he would have shined and b) Harris might have won. According to Google AI: Main Character Syndrome (MCS) is a colloquial term used to describe a person's tendency to see themselves as the central figure in their own life story, often with an inflated sense of self-importance. Characteristics: Exaggerated sense of significance Belief that their experiences are more important than others Self-centeredness and lack of empathy Need for attention and validation Drama queen tendencies Difficulty accepting criticism Viewing others as supporting characters in their story MCS can have negative impacts on relationships, work, and overall well-being. It can lead to: Strained relationships due to self-centeredness, Difficulty collaborating with others, Overconfidence and poor decision-making, and Increased anxiety and depression. If you suspect you have MCS, it's important to: Reflect on your behavior and identify areas where you can improve. Develop empathy and consider the perspectives of others. Set realistic expectations about your importance. Seek professional help if needed to address underlying psychological issues.

Experts said the focus is effective, tapping into the sense among many Americans that they have been left behind. In a sit-down interview with Fox News last month, President Trump and his billionaire “efficiency” advisor Elon Musk framed new tariffs on foreign trading partners as a simple matter of fairness. “I said, ‘Here's what we're going to do: reciprocal. Whatever you charge, I'm charging,'” Trump said of a conversation he'd had with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi. “I'm doing that with every country.” “It seems fair,” Musk said. Trump laughed. “It does,” he said. “It's like, fair is fair,” said Musk, the world's richest person. The moment was one of many in recent months in which Trump and his allies have framed his policy agenda around the concept of fairness — which experts say is a potent political message at a time when many Americans feel thwarted by inflation, high housing costs and other systemic barriers to getting ahead. “Trump has a good sense for what will resonate with folks, and I think we all have a deep sense of morality — and so we all recognize the importance of fairness,” said Kurt Gray, a psychology professor at University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and author of the book “Outraged: Why We Fight About Morality and Politics and How to Find Common Ground.” “At the end of the day,” Gray said, “we're always worried about not getting what we deserve.” Join this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEYmda1KQTjrhLBeWutKuGA/join https://odysee.com/@LukeFordLive, https://rumble.com/lukeford, https://dlive.tv/lukefordlivestreams Superchat: https://entropystream.live/app/lukefordlive Bitchute: https://www.bitchute.com/channel/lukeford/ Soundcloud MP3s: https://soundcloud.com/luke-ford-666431593 Code of Conduct: https://lukeford.net/blog/?p=125692 http://lukeford.net Email me: lukeisback@gmail.com or DM me on Twitter.com/lukeford, Best videos: https://lukeford.net/blog/?p=143746 Support the show | https://www.streamlabs.com/lukeford, https://patreon.com/lukeford, https://PayPal.Me/lukeisback Facebook: http://facebook.com/lukecford Book an online Alexander Technique lesson with Luke: https://alexander90210.com Feel free to clip my videos.

There's clearly been a descent. Jordan is not alone among our gurus to have this journey. Would he have been like this if he had not become a celebrity?” Chris: “Jordan Peterson] appears to be a grandiose narcissist. He always saw himself as a revolutionary thinker with big ideas. He sought out a public profile. He wanted to be a commentator. He wanted to establish a religion, buy a church and give sermons. That's not normal behavior. When you add to that his obsessions and wrestling with his religious devotion or lack of religious belief, that creates a heady stew. The partisan political ecosystem encourages him to give more takes and to have a financially rewarding pundit position.

Google AI: Shame and rage are often interconnected, with many people experiencing intense anger as a defense mechanism against feelings of shame, essentially using rage to mask or deflect the painful experience of feeling inadequate or worthless; this can create a cycle where experiencing shame triggers anger, which can then further exacerbate feelings of shame if expressed in destructive ways. Key points about the relationship between shame and rage: Defensive mechanism: When someone feels deeply ashamed, they may turn to anger as a way to protect themselves from the vulnerability and pain associated with shame, often projecting these feelings onto others. "Shame-rage cycle": This describes the dynamic where experiencing shame can lead to a burst of anger, which can then further fuel feelings of shame if the anger is expressed in a way that is self-destructive or damaging to relationships. Underlying feelings of powerlessness: Shame can often be associated with feeling small, powerless, or defective, which can trigger a desire to lash out with anger to regain a sense of control. Impact of childhood experiences: Individuals who experienced significant criticism or abuse during childhood may be particularly prone to experiencing a strong link between shame and rage, as they may have learned to use anger as a coping mechanism for deeply ingrained feelings of inadequacy. https://statmodeling.stat.columbia.edu/2012/09/12/niall-ferguson-the-john-yoo-line-and-the-paradox-of-influence/ Andrew Gelman: "Life is continuous but we think in discrete terms. In applied statistics there's the p=.05 line which tells us whether a finding is significant or not. Baseball has the Mendoza line. And academia has what might be called the John Yoo line: the point at which nothing you write gets taken seriously, and so you might as well become a hack because you have no scholarly reputation remaining. John Yoo, of course, became a hack because, I assume, he had nothing left to lose. In contrast, historian Niall Ferguson has reportedly been moved to hackery because he has so much to gain."

Steve Bannon has changed his tune on Elon Musk. He's now complimentary. Bannon is Trump's id. Along with Russ Vought, Musk "is taking the most extreme action possible." https://www.nytimes.com/2025/02/28/us/politics/musk-federal-bureaucracy-takeover.html The team is now moving faster than many of the legal efforts to stop it, making drastic changes that could be hard to unwind even if they are ultimately constrained by the courts. Mr. Musk's associates have pushed out workers, ignored civil service protections, torn up contracts and effectively shuttered an entire agency established by Congress: the U.S. Agency for International Development. A month into Mr. Trump's second term, Mr. Musk and his crew of more than 40 now have about all the passwords they could ever need.

His repeal came via three executive orders, two issued on Inauguration Day. The first overturned dozens of Biden decrees, including the “Advancing Racial Equity” executive order signed in the first hours of his presidency in 2021. The second ended all initiatives, offices, contracts, and employees connected to DEI, which Trump referred to as “illegal and immoral discrimination programs.” The decisive blow came the following day. In an order called “Ending Illegal Discrimination and Restoring Merit-Based Opportunity,” Trump repealed a variety of executive orders, including 11246, and explicitly barred the OFCCP from enforcing affirmative action. And his Office of Personnel Management followed through on the previous day's business, ordering that all DEI federal employees be sent home, all DEI federal contracts be terminated, and all efforts to pursue federal DEI programs under another name be rooted out. RIP affirmative action. But that is only part of the story. A curious element of Trump's third executive order is its invocation of the president's “solemn duty” to enforce “longstanding Federal civil-rights laws,” mentioning the Civil Rights Act of 1964. This is not a concession. It's a threat. While the Civil Rights Act mentioned “affirmative action” it attached no specific meaning to the term, and the law was resolutely color-blind. Affirmative action programs, with their differing treatment of races, are in tension with it. DEI programs, many of which scapegoat white people, are even more so. It is Trump's assertion that DEI programs “violate the text and spirit of our longstanding Federal civil-rights laws.” Trump is doing more than reforming the public sector. He is signaling to the private sector that certain kinds of programs are liable to prosecution, even asking each federal agency to name up to nine large private-sector organizations that might be engaged in discrimination.

Google AI: The O.J. Simpson trial divided Americans along racial lines, with most Black people believing he was innocent and most White people believing he was guilty. Reaction to the verdict Black Americans Many believed Simpson was innocent and that justice had been served. Some believed the verdict was a response to past injustices against Black people. White Americans Many believed Simpson was guilty and that the verdict was racially motivated. Impact of the trial The trial exposed racial divisions in the United States. It also highlighted the deep-seated resentment that many Black people had for the U.S. criminal justice system. The trial's legacy continues to impact how Black and white Americans view the justice system. Poll results In 1994, 22% of Black respondents to a Washington Post-ABC News poll said they thought Simpson was guilty, versus 63% of white people. In 2015, a Washington Post-ABC News poll found that 57% of Black people saw O.J. as ``probably or definitely guilty''.

What are jerks? I think it mostly means people who are overly self-centered. They think too much about their own interests and desires and not enough about others'; they have an overly high opinion of themselves, especially without justification; they tend to be too aggressive in interpersonal interactions. 2.2. Why are there jerks? Evolution. The genes we have are those that, in our evolutionary history, caused people with them to leave behind more copies of their own genes, compared to their alleles. In general, having a very strong focus on oneself causes one to serve oneself, which tends to enhance one's reproductive fitness. So, to the extent that personality is heritable, we would expect jerkiness to spread. Surely few if any women would say that they like jerks. But they might prefer certain traits that are correlated with jerkiness. First, it's plausible that men who are higher in the social hierarchy are higher value mates, since they could give more advantages to their wives and children. But a certain degree of jerkiness probably enables men to climb the hierarchy. (Not too much, though.) So women might have evolved to be attracted to jerkiness, or they might have evolved to be attracted to status, which correlates with jerkiness. Second, it is widely known that women desire confidence. Confidence may help one to succeed in life. Moreover, it is a sign of general success: The more you succeed in getting what you want, the more confident you feel. People who tend to succeed are generally going to be higher-value mates, so women might want to select confident men. But that is a simplification. Actually, there are at least two reasons why someone might be highly confident: Competence: Normal people start out with low confidence when they first start to do anything, because they know that they don't know what they're doing. As they gain skill and success (if they do), their confidence builds. This includes physical skills as well as social and intellectual skills. Confidence hacking: Once other people have learned to associate confidence with competence, a personality type might develop to “hack” the system, so to speak, by just projecting confidence automatically, regardless of actual ability. These are people who are simply confident as a standing personality trait. This enables them to get the benefits of being perceived as competent, without actually needing to have high ability. Aside: Why doesn't everyone have this trait? Because it also has a downside: when you are overconfident, you tend to bite off more than you can chew and to take too many risks. Confidence Hackers are likely jerks. They feel confident without basis, which means that they are at least a little narcissistic, and their personality type is an adaptation to manipulate other people. Of course, as with all of these things, they need not know what they are doing; they just find themselves feeling confident and feeling as though they themselves are great, without knowing why.
Glenn writes: Noah Smith is a very good writer and a very bad analyst of international affairs. He seems to spend a lot of time huffing and puffing himself into a fit about the notion that there is a “New Axis” of unmitigatedly belligerent totalitarian powers cartoonishly hell-bent on overturning the U.S.-led liberal international order and unleashing tyranny on the people of the world. The main thrust of his writing over the past several years seems to be that the United States needs to totally reorient its economy and society in order to fight “Cold War 2” against the New Axis.1 You can generally ascribe Smith's errors to either of two common perceptual biases in U.S. national security thinking: The Fundamental Attribution Error: Smith tends to impute the malfeasance of U.S. adversaries to their inherent nature, while chalking up U.S. and allied behavior to circumstance. Threat Inflation: He treats any challenge to U.S. hegemony or international security from a U.S. adversary as if it's the end of the world, and when evidence is ambiguous, he interprets it to that effect. Yesterday, Smith reposted an article he wrote last year, “Japan, South Korea, and Poland need nuclear weapons immediately,” that illustrates both of these errors very well. He argues that, although it is unfortunate that more democratic countries would need to acquire nuclear weapons, it is necessary for them to proliferate because they face intolerable threats to their security from the insatiable revisionist Sino-Russian Axis and they can't trust the United States to defend them. Moreover, because U.S. adversaries are already developing nuclear weapons with the help of Russia and China, controlled proliferation to U.S. allies would not be exceedingly costly to the international order. Smith is wrong on both counts. There is no evil Axis, and it does not pose a looming threat to the survival of U.S. allies in Europe and Asia. There is also no Russian or Chinese conspiracy to undermine the global nonproliferation regime and spread nuclear weapons to U.S. adversaries — more of a paranoid delusion than a serious assessment of the facts about international security. https://statesofexception.substack.com/p/japan-south-korea-and-poland-dont Join this channel to get access to perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEYmda1KQTjrhLBeWutKuGA/join https://odysee.com/@LukeFordLive, https://rumble.com/lukeford, https://dlive.tv/lukefordlivestreams Superchat: https://entropystream.live/app/lukefordlive Bitchute: https://www.bitchute.com/channel/lukeford/ Soundcloud MP3s: https://soundcloud.com/luke-ford-666431593 Code of Conduct: https://lukeford.net/blog/?p=125692 http://lukeford.net Email me: lukeisback@gmail.com or DM me on Twitter.com/lukeford, Best videos: https://lukeford.net/blog/?p=143746 Support the show | https://www.streamlabs.com/lukeford, https://patreon.com/lukeford, https://PayPal.Me/lukeisback Facebook: http://facebook.com/lukecford Book an online Alexander Technique lesson with Luke: https://alexander90210.com Feel free to clip my videos.
