Maybe try that again, but without the mangling?

Please delete, David?
They will demand this of us, while in their own lives they will:
Thus, said Valentine Michael Smith in Stranger in a Strange Land:
Heinlein did warn that this imposed ultimate responsibility upon everyone, a warning that went largely unheeded by sixties hippies–although one can also point out that even with the elevation of the self is fraught with the greatest danger.
The Unspanked, a longer video.
Not unspanked, unhanged. At some point disposal is the right policy.
“Momma, we’re out of the hood. We’re leaving tomorrow.”
But they’re going to bring the hood with them, wherever they go, to their new neighbors’ detriment.
…and it’s likely they will soon be bankrupt and back in the hood.
A little emendation seemed in order.
They don’t believe that guff anyway, they’re just manufacturing justifications for their own licentiousness.
This does not bode well.

The woman who was set on fire on a Chicago subway train by career criminal Lawrence Reed has been identified.
But it turns out that her family had asked news organizations to withhold her name. Most honored the request.

Recommended outfit for London…and Chicago.

Nearly losing everything to Swedish Social Services.
Never forget that leftists are far worse than street thugs.

He’s still updating the thread, so it might be worth jumping over to it again.
When leftists say that socialism works in Scandi countries, they gloss over this part. Meanwhile the right insists that Scandis are capitalists, not socialist. They all talk past each other.
When they started letting the muzzies in, I wondered how this aspect of Scandi culture was processing it. I have yet to see a story about that.
Wonder how Swedish Social Services treats *ahem* non-Western immigrants.
They love em and want lots more.
Just finished that thread, at least as far as it has gone as of right now. Many people, non-Scandis even, simping for the Marxist Socialism Services. People need to wake up to how bad this situation is and is rapidly getting worse. At first it surprised me that a military guy would allow his family to be put in such a vulnerable situation. When I saw he was an officer, a Major I believe, it kinda made sense. Our professional classes in general are oblivious to the damage being done and especially to their own culpabilities for it spreading. By the very nature of being professionals, they are infused into and with the system such that they do not see themselves.
Even Elon took notice.
That’ll give the story a lot of exposure!
