• 02:05, 6 March 2023 Root talk contribs created page SIXHIRB (Created page with "I had to look this one up. It wasn’t on Wikipedia, but I found it in the Urban Dictionary. Here we go: * Sexist * Intolerant * Xenophobic * Homophobic * Islamophobic * Racist * Bigoted I’m quite sure this list will only grow longer with time. Why? Because the “woke” are inherently narcissistic and believe they’re better than others. To try to prove that to themselves, they compile a list of traits they consider to be negative and that people who disagree...")
• 02:03, 6 March 2023 Root talk contribs created page Ruling Oligarchy (Created page with "Extremists in every national political contest in the U.S. tend to blame their failures on the putative existence of a ruling elite, or oligarchy. This is generally regarded as a crazy conspiracy theory, for the obvious reasons that no such cabal has ever declared its existence, there is no discernible stable pattern of success for either political party, and, most important of all, no rational cabal would ever take the country along the political path it has evidently t...")

While many other principles of life and/or governance have been associated with the label "Republican," no convincing case can be presented that any such auxiliary belief or principle is a requirement for membership in the Republican Party.

• 01:54, 6 March 2023 Root talk contribs created page Progressivism (Created page with "Progressivism denotes the political philosophy that leads to human progress. It is forbidden to question what this means or to ask for a coherent list of principles that characterizes it. (You can ask for a list of such principles.

• 22:57, 5 March 2023 Root talk contribs created page Post-structuralism (Created page with "So, what do you do if you flunked philosophy and science? If you have a political/ideological bent, and perhaps a flair for glib phrases, you invent "post-structuralism", a substitute for hard knowledge which excuses its ignorance with claims that "no one really understands anything anyway, because they just can't, that's why." If you find the work of Derrida, Foucault, et. al., too difficult to endure because of its imprecision, you might take refuge in the work of Wit...")
