Reminder people: Dennis Prager was injured in a fall in 2024 and is now paralyzed from the shoulders down and has been suffering greatly. It would be EXTREMELY distasteful to delight in progress and victories for marginalized groups, as well as scientific advances in biology that gives benefits to such groups while he is literally forced to sit and watch for the remainder of his likely short life.
I mean, it would be like rubbing it in his face that his God didn't protect him and between him and what's happened to other major conservative figureheads like Jordan Peterson and of course Charlie Kirk, it might even shake his faith entirely if he were to see the world moving on and none of his predictions and proclamations coming to pass about divine judgement against LGBTQ+ people while he languishes in a wheelchair and a device to keep him breathing.
edit: also, while a female nurse literally keeps him alive, that must really feel awkward after he promoted how a women's place is for childbearing and nothing else.
I had no idea Dennis Prager was paralyzed and living in constant pain. You just made my day.
I don't know if his pain is mental or physical, but when I saw him on an interview he seemed in pretty rough shape and talking a lot about the end of his life. Becoming quadriplegic is a massive risk to your lifespan and he's already pretty old and in bad shape. We're going to send him lots of thoughts and prayers. Tons even.
