State of Tuesday: FEAR AND LOATHING
Maybe one day the Behns of the world will all wake up. I won’t be holding my breath.
Greetings, Dear Reader,
As a reminder, today is the last SOTD until next Tuesday.
In between, I’m going to Thanksgiving with my family in Florida, and you better believe all the women have already told me to be on my best behavior. Some of the little ones are high school age now and the Marines in the family have been told to keep the stories age appropriate … which essentially means no stories at all.
But it’s all good! Football, family, ice-cold beers, here we go.
Before I jump in, here’s a quick word from our sponsor …

FEAR AND LOATHING
I wasn’t a psych major in college. In fact, I think most psyche majors I’ve met are a few short of a full dollar.
Even so, I think it’s pretty easy to figure out what’s going on with the ascendant liberal worldview. This isn’t most liberals. I think Bill Maher is sane. Fetterman might be brain damaged, but he isn’t nuts either. As a Pennsylvanian myself, I can say my experience with PA dems is most of them are more like Fetterman than they are like recently ascendant Democrat Aftyn Behn.
Behn is running for election in the seventh district of Tennessee. I can’t think of a better avatar for the mental illness plaguing/dominating left-wing politics these days.
Namely: Fear and loathing.
Behn is the living, breathing embodiment of lefty protestors who voluntarily dress up as handmaids and walk around in public. Nobody is demanding they debase themselves this way; they do it willingly. And while the dictatorial “patriarchy” they fear never quite materializes, still they end up in the garb anyhow. How poetic.
Of Nashville, she once said, “I hate the city, I hate the bachelorettes, I hate the pedal taverns, I hate country music, I hate all of the things that make Nashville. I hate it.”
MSDNC’s Al Sharpton asked her for a response to “these Republican attacks” that consisted of quoting Behn’s own words. Her response to the unearthed quote was yet another liberal trope, simply insist up is down.
“Yeah, as a Nashvillian I think we all get a little annoyed with the tourists that come to town, but that doesn’t mean I love my city, in fact instead of sitting on the sideline and complaining about it, I decided to run for office.”
That “doesn’t mean I love my city”? How Freudian to forget the “don’t” in that double negative, Aftyn. How unintentionally honest.
I can relate to finding woo girls annoying, and at least some bars have banned them entirely, but to say you hate the entire city is something else. As with most liberal mental illness, the accusation is projection. It’s self-diagnosis. Behn hates herself, not Nashville.
Look no further than her latest unearthed quote, “My therapist always asks me to transcribe my dreams and the recurring dream I’ve had is standing up in a Cafeteria full of women and saying ‘I don’t want children. I want power!’”
If I tried to distill the problems liberals face down to their very essence, I’m not sure I could do it better than that quote.
Aftyn Behn. She’s an attractive, but fading blonde with sharp, almost predatory features. She carries a name that could easily be that of a YA fiction sorority president known for psychologically tormenting the girls in her house. Educated at UT Austin, she has a degree in psychology. She’s 36, childless, and she routinely goes to a “therapist.” Despite never making any progress, she still goes.
She has a recurring dream of being in, of all places, a cafeteria filled with women. Is she in a prison? If so, it’s literally one of her own making.
Overwhelmed with the powerlessness of it all, and despite no triggering input, she stands up abruptly and shouts that she doesn’t want to have children. Instead, she wants “power.”
Perhaps Behn’s mind cafeteria is in a women’s lunatic asylum. It’s the only place I can think of where such an outburst wouldn’t draw rebuke, or at the very least some concerned stares.
Behn’s primary issue appears to be that she hates herself. That self-hatred is endemic to the ascendant radicalism on the left. Obviously that starts with the uterus.
They don’t view the ability to 3D print the next generation of human beings as the obvious source of power that it is. No, their mental illness causes an inversion. Rather, child bearing is just shackles, preventing them from achieving real power, despite nobody standing in the way of achieving either end.
And what do they do once they have real power? Their hatred emanates outward in concentric circles. It starts with dismantling things like the Nashville police department, something for which she explicitly advocated. Oh yes, she was a “defund the police” supporter. She said during the BLM riots of 2020 that burning down police stations was a good thing! She still can’t say whether she’s come to her senses on that one. She turned into a befuddled mess on MSDNC when anchors offered her time to “clarify” such nonsense.
The back and forth was mystifying and worth a watch. The odd thing about the inversion of criminal justice in this country is it’s the Aftyn Behns of the world who suffer the consequences. A young woman in Chicago was doused in gasoline and set on fire in the metro the other day. People pointed out how she was once a “Black Lives Matter” supporter. But the most important element of the story was that the perpetrator had 72 prior arrests and was still for some reason out on the streets.
While the dreams or nightmares of the likes of Aftyn Behn never seem to materialize – there are never any jackboots forcing her into a burka and shipping her off to the baby farm – the results of their self hatred most certainly do. The toxic empathy might free up criminals and criminal illegals to rape, kill and maim everyday citizens like Aftyn, but it never quite touches the “patriarchy” they’ve set out to dismantle.
It, like Aftyn’s cafeteria dream, is just an apparition. The real threat isn’t the “patriarchy,” or even the mentally deranged criminal on the subway train. It’s Aftyn Behn getting her long-sought-after “power” but never really emerging from her mind cafeteria.
Maybe one day the Behns of the world will all wake up.
I won’t be holding my breath.
