Stephen Moore has been declared to be a ‘moron’ on this blog before. But this morning his comments might’ve warmed my black heart a little, not because of whether they were true or not — but because of the do not give a fuck nature of them.
He complained of “male earnings”, from a societal point of view. Naturally this is sound thinking. We should always be concerned with the major driving source of the global economy — male earnings. However, we live in a world where Arya killed the Night King and Cersei is Queen, Sansa rules Winterfell, The Mother of Dragons exists, and Brienne of Tarth beat The Hound in single combat — so of course this gender ‘insensitive’ comment triggered a lot of people.
“I want everybody’s wages to rise, of course. People are talking about women’s earnings. They’ve risen,” Moore tells CNBC.
“The problem actually has been the steady decline in male earnings, and I think we should pay attention to that, because I think that has very negative consequences for the economy and for society,” the man President Trump wants to nominate for the Fed board
Sometimes I feel like women believe they could be Wonder Woman and charge the trenches of WW1, or fly into outperspace without a space suit like Captain Marvel. In a way, it’s a fucked up psyop on women — because it feeds into their proclivity for escapism and fantasy.
Back to Mr. Moore and “male earnings”. Important? Yes. But it’s sort of like new Yankee fans bitching about not winning a World Series recently. After all, its been 10 years since their last win and there’s a whole young generation of Yankee fans who’ve never seen the Yanks in a ticker tape parade. We all feel so sorry for them (sad face).
We don’t — and that’s because we’re fucked up people who are deeply vindictive, jealous, and filled with violence.
Happy Tuesday, fucked faces.

He makes a mistake when he adopts their identity politics and uses the phrase “male earnings”.
I believe he’s doing in on purpose, at least I hope he is.
Cause he’s a dumbass.
Now, what is said in public, truly must make us ponder,
Yes, I had to learn the hard way. My age helps. Most women are not as physically strong as men. However, most men, in our present times, are not as strong as my German Aunts.
Yes, most want to become Mothers. (Although there is a famous Dear Abby or Ann Landers that asks if parents could start over and not have children whould they? Roughly 40% said yes.)
“Identity politics” is not a choice, it is reality. White males are overrepresetned in the power structure. Just look at CEOs, Congress, etc. Anybody that doesn’t recognize that fact is a moron or in denial.
This not mean that white men are bad people; it is natural for people to favor others like themselves, and if minority women held the power, they woudl probably be complaing about identitity politcs and political correctness, etc.
I am also curious as to the information source for his statement, and also which men is he talking about. I gurantee that men in the top 30% have had their earnings go up, so is he actully saying that Trump’s *base* (workign-calss white males) have had their earnigns fall under Trump? Never heard a Republican say that publicly. Of course, it could just be fake news intended for an echo-chamber audience of 1.
Also here is an example of the leadership we have in the White House. Pelosi, Schumer, and Trump ahave agreed to spend $2Trillion on infrastructure. My first question is , “How are they going to pay for it?”
Mick “The Dick” Mulvaney hasa a different repsonse:
“I explain infrastructure as a pipe, and you put money in one end of the pipe and then asphalt and bridges come out the other end of the pipe. Right now that pipe is 10 years long.
“And I’ve told the president several times, ‘Mr. President it doesn’t make a difference how much money you put in this end of the pipe … you won’t see a single lane of traffic, or road paved before end of your second term.’ …
“Why go ahead and commit to an infrastructure deal now and say we’re going to spend $1 trillion on infrastructure, but we’re not going to change the environment in which it gets built? And so now this trillion dollars doesn’t actually translate into something tangible for 10 years. That’s not acceptable to this president.”
In other words:
“Don’t ask what you can do for your country, ask what your country can do for you”
