Do you remember any source for Hitchens on that, like a book or speaking event? I’d enjoy hearing more about that specifically.

So cool to learn about these, thanks! I've tried and failed to self-host Nextcloud in the past, but really need to give it another go. Their contacts app is also something I've wanted for a while now.

Amazing self-own admitting that the internet and public schools are your ideological enemies:

According to Boreing: “Kids go to school for 40 hours a week and then they engage in pop culture for 40 more hours every week. That means for 80 hours of a child’s week, you are turning them over to the left. A good parent might spend 15 minutes a day in meaningful conversation with their kids … A great parent might take their kid to church for one hour, or two hours, or three hours a week. The other 80, they’re watching Disney … they’re online … they’re in public schools.”

Even their non-political statements are political. I hate that some people don’t see through this shit:

In a video statement on Monday marking Bentkey’s launch, Boreing said: “Bentkey isn’t about teaching kids politics, it’s about childhood and wonder and adventure. It’s about values and all of the things on which politics are built later.”
