They put scars on women’s faces for a job interview experiment… then secretly removed them.
The women went in believing they had visible disfigurements — and came out reporting massive discrimination, with interviewers supposedly referencing their “scars.”
Konstantin Kisin used this study to make a powerful point: constantly telling people they’re oppressed or disadvantaged primes them to see discrimination everywhere, even when it isn’t there.
It’s the same psychological effect as buying a new car and suddenly noticing that model on every street.
The ideology of victimhood doesn’t just describe reality — it actively shapes it.
We should be teaching young people they’re strong and capable of overcoming adversity, not training them to see themselves as permanent victims.
What’s one way you’ve seen this “victimhood mindset” play out in real life?

Billionaire investor Chamath Palihapitiya’s interview with Andrew Schulz just went viral.
He exposed the truth about Trump’s tariffs:
It's more than a trade war...he's completely redistributing American wealth.
Here are the untold secrets of the President's $750B gamble: 🧵

Holy Moly, what a speech by Italy Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni.
“And I know with Donald Trump leading the United States, we will never again see the disaster we saw in Afghanistan….Border security, energy security, economic security, food security, defense & national security, for a simple reason, if you are not secure you are not free.”
“….Conservatives keep on growing. That is why the left is nervous and with Trump’s victory, their irritation has turned into hysteria.”
Love PM Meloni just as I do Javier Milei. Conservatives around the world are uniting and taking control back and it makes me ecstatic to see and hear her speech.
WE, conservatives, are the majority!

Look, I get it, Dems.
You think nuking USAID is dumb.
You think handing government computers to Big Balls is dumb.
You think blaming the plane crash on DEI is dumb.
You think JD’s speech in Europe is dumb.
Fine. Maybe you’re right. Maybe you’re wrong. Whatever.
But that’s not the point.
Every administration in American history has done dumb things. What NONE of them have done—what is truly, mind-melting, pants-on-head, clown-world-on-dope, 50 IQ Neanderthal smoking weed dumb—was paying NGOs to smuggle tens of millions people including criminals across the border, then handing them free five-star hotels, cell phones, and ATM cards.
A five-year-old can understand that was Bozo-the-Clown-on-crack levels of stupid.
That’s the new threshold, Democrats.
That’s the low water mark on idiotic policy.
Argue all you want. But until we propose something half as mind bendingly brain dead as that, I don’t care

BREAKING: Trump just signed an executive order that requires 10 regulations to be eliminated for each 1 that's added.
LFG!
The title of the EO is "Unleashing Prosperity Through Deregulation"

Before he was president, Trump bought an estate in West Palm Beach, Florida. He put up a 50-foot flag pole and flew a U.S. flag on it. The City Council told him that he could only have a 30-foot pole but he refused to take it down. They told him they would fine him $1,000 a day until he took it down. He said fine, that's chump change. When the fine reached $120,000 he went to the city council and made a deal. He would lower the flag to a 30-foot pole if he could donate the $120,000 (write off/help veterans) to the Veterans Affairs, to which they agreed. He took the 50-foot pole down and had a landscape company come in and build a 20-foot hill where the pole was and put up a 30-foot pole. That's why we love the guy.
