The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Let's leave it to the immortal Kurt Schlichter:

townhall.com - Republicans are totally not being cool about people murdering them

The real impact of Charlie Kirk’s murder was on normal people. We knew the nature of our enemy; the normals didn’t. The other day, normal people are watching this clean-cut, pleasant Christian guy debating politely with a wide range of lunatics, and, all of a sudden, his neck explodes in a fountain of blood. It was shocking for us already in the fight aesthetically but it was not in concept; for normal people, it was a graphic revelation of something they didn’t quite realize before. They didn’t quite realize that the left doesn’t just disagree with them, that the left is more than just a bunch of nuts who say weird things and do weirder things, but that the left consists of people who actually want to hurt them for being normal.

For normals, that was mind-blowing. Moreover, the cringe reaction of people around them, people that they thought were normal and not insanely evil, utterly red-pilled them. It pulled back the curtain on the left. Normals never realized just how sick these bastards really are, and now they can’t unsee it.

Yup.
