I despise the saying "live and let live". It makes the assumption that all people are inherently good. People need to wake up to the fact that evil exists.

Eric Weinstein just described the end of the mapped life. For ten thousand years, humans had to earn the right to exist. Pick a noun. Become the noun. Die as the noun. Accountant. Teacher. Radiologist. The box had a name. You climbed inside and stayed until retirement or death. Weinstein: “Every occupation that is named is over.” Not automated. Not replaced. Named. You picked a noun. It told the world who you were. Then it told you who you were. If your future has a title your parents recognize, that future is already dissolving beneath you. Weinstein: “A tsunami of a lifetime is coming and nothing your elders have seen is gonna prepare you.” People hear this and assume it’s about unemployment. It’s not. It’s about identity. The machines aren’t absorbing tasks. They’re dissolving the categories we built ourselves around. You spent your whole life becoming a noun. The noun is about to stop existing. When the label disappears, what’s left of you? Weinstein: “Get flexible. Get good on a bunch of different stuff. Learn how to think across disciplines.” Stop being a noun. Start being a verb. But the most important thing Weinstein said has nothing to do with strategy. It touches something much older. Something closer to the bone. In a world where AI is world-class at everything, what is the point of a human being? Weinstein: “I think you should be able to just have a life. I have a golden retriever. I don’t know that it’s the greatest golden retriever in the world.” For ten thousand years, human worth was measured by output. How much you could lift. How fast you could think. How much value you could squeeze from a single day. We trained ourselves to think like machines because machines didn’t exist yet. Now they do. And they will be better than us at every measurable thing. Most people hear that and feel terror. They should feel something closer to relief. When a machine can do it better, the metric dies. When the metric dies, the cage opens. You were never supposed to be a spreadsheet. You were never supposed to justify your breath with a job title. Your golden retriever doesn’t optimize. It doesn’t produce quarterly earnings. It doesn’t prove it’s worth to anyone. It just lives. And you love it anyway. That was always the offer. We just couldn’t afford it. Now we can. We spent ten thousand years trying to prove we were machines. The machines just arrived to tell us we never had to be.

I still can’t believe Charlie Kirk is gone. 💔 It’s heartbreaking to see his casket being boarded onto Air Force Two by Vice President JD Vance today. His voice, his passion, his kindness, his fight for what he believed, it’s left a void we’re all going to feel deeply. We’re really going to miss him. 😢 Please join me in praying for his wife, Erika, and their two young children. They need our love, support, and prayers now more than ever to find strength in this unimaginable loss. 🙏

Calling people Nazis and fascist for over 10 years WILL radicalize the weak of mind. They always perpetuate violence on those they disagree with. PRAY FOR @charliekirk11

Charlie Kirk would have been president. His friends knew it. His admirers knew it. And his enemies knew it. This universal confidence in Charlie’s future began with his countless political accomplishments. At 18, he founded Turning Point USA, which went on to become the most important cultural organization on the American Right. By 22, he was addressing the Republican National Convention. Three years later, he founded Turning Point Action, which led the get-out-the-vote efforts that delivered the first Republican popular vote victory in twenty years. In his spare time, Charlie published five books, hosted a national talk show, married a lovely wife, and fathered two beautiful children. All of that by 31. Charlie’s appearance inspired as much confidence as his accomplishments. At a towering six-foot-five slouching, he joked that he had descended from the Nephilim—the giant “fallen ones” of the Old Testament. He might have been born with such a nature, as are we all, but he was not content to remain so. Charlie loved his Savior. The zeal with which he debated politics paled in comparison to the excitement with which he discussed religion. And his religious life bore fruit. Turning Point launched a Faith division to focus specifically on his followers’ souls. There too, Charlie’s enthusiasm for open debate set the tone, as he invited atheists and even Catholics to take part. But he didn’t need a specific religious conference to convey his faith. Charlie Kirk’s religion bore fruit in everything he did. Discerning observers believed in Charlie Kirk, not chiefly for his accolades or his appearance, but for his manifest virtue. Charlie’s prudence, the principal virtue in politics, built a generational coalition that helped to transform the American government. His temperance distinguished him as one of the few on the Right to eschew whisky, cigars, and every other delight that might have distracted him from his purpose, for which he had so little time. His sense of justice produced clarity in moral vision and grace for his opponents. His fortitude impelled him to enter the public square without a hint of servile fear. Charlie’s only fear was the holy sort—awe and wonder, the beginning of wisdom—and his clearest virtues were theological: faith, hope, and charity. We mourn his death, we take up his cause, and we entrust him, as he confidently entrusted himself, to God’s care.

The Left is the party of murder
The Left lectured us for the last decade about the dangers of violence from the Right From the assassination attempts of President Trump To Brian Thompson, the United Healthcare CEO, being murdered Now to Charlie Kirk The danger was actually on the Left
