Justin Is A Reprehensible Ideologue

That the Trudeau liberals claim to speak for free speech and the Charter just blows my mind.

This government's utter lack of respect for religious organizations is astonishing.

And his little act here can but be from a little man.

Leave religion alone Justin. Your concept of liberty is sophomoric as it is disingenuous.

As for Church groups, let's figure a way to raise funds and rally around them. Canadians need to step up and do the right thing. The sad reality is when you rely on government funding, you're at the mercy of ideologues like Justin.

Boot the bastards out in 2019.

Half-Wit Sheila Jackson Lee Doesn't Understand Timelines

What more evidence do you want that Democrats and their allies in social media are the 'New McCarthys''?*

Why are Diamond & Silk being grilled by idiot Congressmen like it's 1926 Russia anyway? They're being treated as though they have to prove their innocence or risk being sent to the gulags by a fantastically disingenuous Lee and her diabolical scheme to try and catch D&S in a lie.

What part of 'we were on Fox on the 11th and Facebook contacted us on the 12th so we didn't lie' doesn't this moron grasp?

Scary what blacks have to go through if they dare leave the Democrat plantation.

What a horrible party the DNC is. Where the true intolerant illiberals and racists roam. They couldn't care less about the middle class and civil peace.

Just like the Liberals here in Canada.

They're just plain old ideologues and like all ideologues if you don't go along with them, they aim to destroy you.

Is the talent pool in Houston that low that they have to vote for Broom Hillary and this cretin?



D&S represent liberty. Remember that.

Stop voting Liberal/Democrat or anything left-wing until they clean their rooms.

At least in the conservative ranks you can have a rational discussion and even have a reasonable chance to change minds; or at least have them listen to your point of view with respect and openness.

Go and try that with progressives. They're be calling you names before you even get your first thought out.

Think Morneau when he called a Conservative MP a 'neanderthal'. Such is the character of these people.

I've grown quite irritated by these faux-liberals and their antics.

Mirror, Mirror On The Wall...Am I That Ugly? How Progressive Humor Is Lame

Of the many sinful logical fails progressives commit, I often cite the practice of imposing contemporary narratives on history as egregious.

They'll take, for example, a 'woke' issue like transgender and read a book from the 19th century and declare it ignorant or racist completely oblivious to the epoch or period in which the art derived. Contextualization, perspective and scale does not factor into their thought process.

Hence, Mark Twain is a racist for saying 'nigger' in his book. No discussion. He used a bad word in their view.

It's profoundly anti-humanist on so many levels and has found its way into academia and the political classes as we recently saw with California's repeated attempts at censorship with the most recent act of aiming to ban books written by ex-gays.

And dare if you must to tell the truth at your own risk as professor Stuart Card at Syracuse University tried:

“I strongly believe that reinforcing the current myth that individuals are likely to be damaged by exposure to expressions that they find offensive, and thus require pampering, is a disservice to our students and our profession,” he began. 

“I know my view on this is out of sync with current opinion,” he conceded, but recalled how difficulties he encountered as a young person had “toughened” him and made him stronger, and argued that “coddling promotes weakness.”

So unwoke, yet so true. Meanwhile, Fresno keeps that classless half-wit on staff. Gotta keep the myth going I suppose.

 Anyway, progressives are raging not only a war on science but literature as well. They're Neo-Puritans.



****

And the progressive brand of comedy is also running its lame course. I know pop mainstream media does its darnedest to prop up mediocre comedians like Trevor Noah and attempt to frame late night talk show hosts like Colbert and Oliver as 'smart' or Meyers and Kimmel as voices of 'common sense' but evolved enthusiasts of humour and satire know better.

Remember Maher's joke?

"I can’t even begin to understand the average Trump supporter…possibly because my mother didn’t drink while she was pregnant.”

Yuk, yuk, yuk.

These people are more like court jesters and partisan minstrels gladly playing the part of useful idiots to cater to their group think crowds.

That's what makes them so terrible. We see right through it. There's nothing there. It's not comedy in high resolution. South Park, as usual, got right to the heart of it:



Michelle Wolfe is another example who recently made headlines when she hosted the White House Correspondents' Dinner for all the wrong reasons. Indeed, when you lose NPR, perhaps you need to rethink your craft a little. 

"One example from Wolf's routine: "And I'm never really sure what to call Sarah Huckabee Sanders, you know? Is it Sarah Sanders, is it Sarah Huckabee Sanders, is it Cousin Huckabee, is it Auntie Huckabee Sanders? What's Uncle Tom but for white women who disappoint other white women? Oh, I know. Aunt Coulter."

So much for women's power.

The thing is, if you're going to take shots, you're going to have to craft your hate in a much more intelligent way. If you don't, it comes off exactly as people interpret it: Mean spirited for its own sake. She hates Trump and his politics so much she hates the women who works with him. She's not being satirical. She was making a political point.

So brave to take a trendy shtick and pretty it to be 'truth to power'.

I call it stupid and lame.

Of course, don't expect any modicum of self-awareness from her. Just the usual smart-alec responses and half-hearted quips about 'free speech' blah, blah.

Yup. Free speech.

But you're still an idiot.

Trump Helps To Brings Korea Together

You can just feel the pain in CNN's bull pen when they titled this:

"Trump deserves credit for Korean thaw"

Especially considered the 'he's mentally ill and has access to the nuclear button' is an accepted narrative on the left. Recall his unstable, erratic and impetuous behaviour was supposed to start WWIII.

If this shouldn't make some realize how shrill this was, nothing will.

As for crediting Trump for what's going on. I agree up to a point. I'm not sure exactly what he did, but he certainly moved things along probably sensing the timing was right to push North Korea like he did. It's probably a confluence of factors that lined up perfectly for his administration, but the fact remains this is the most significant development in world affairs since the fall of the Soviet empire.

And it happened under the one man the DNC and progressives continue to demonize and try and destroy. 

It's a good thing for American diplomacy. The DNC should back off.

"...The President and other key players in the initiative would also be shoo-ins for the Nobel Peace Prize -- and how Trump would love to join his nemesis Barack Obama on the list of honorees.Such plaudits, at best, are years away, and months of treacherous and intricate diplomacy looms if negotiators are to defy grim historical precedent. "

 Why? They gave one to Obama barely into his term and he proceeded to do precisely squat for peace except to flap and blab on about it. Trump's role on the other hand, is a factual achievement.

The Nobel committee also saw it fit to give one to Arafat.

It will be very interesting to see if they give one to Trump.

If they don't....yes....that will be intriguing to say the least.

If This Is Liberalism....

...you can keep it...

Quote of the day (from comments):

"If the “liberal order” is the loss of parental rights, state forced euthanasia, speech codes, the confiscation of all means of self-defense, and a bloated uncaring bureaucratic mechanism that views individuals as cogs in a machine rather than human than that order is neither “liberal” nor worth preserving."

This.

If the bizarrely macabre and inhumane actions of the England in the Alfie saga is any indication of where 'liberalism' stands, it's an indictment of where we stand as a civilization. 

We just witnessed a government prevent a family from taking care of their own needs in order to make them submissive to the state. Worse, they then forced the family to watch as the government starved their child to death while police guarded over them.

If this is not a depraved example of authoritarianism and a police state, what is?

Equally as bizarre, is the the almost cult-like fetish people defending the government hold for public health. They chose a system over a life. Canadians exhibit a similar trait with our universal public health. One in which I've discussed here over the years. It's not, well, a healthy one in my view.

Alas, it's not a liberal order. It's a progressive one. 

And this is why Americans need to resist the derelict promises of an ignorant socialist like Bernie Sanders (who recently promised everyone a $15/hr government job. A promise only an economic illiterate would make. A promise only an economically illiterate voting block convinced of their own self-righteous views of what ails society could accept. The thing is in order to make this happen, Sanders would have to come up with some nefarious mechanism to steal from one portion of the population to give to another all backed by state force (again, I point to Alfie to remind what state force looks like). His vision is a path to hell.

Once you trade part of your liberties for security or a nanny state, you lose your own agency.

It's not complicated folks.

Canada made that mistake and we'll be made to pay in some form down the road. England is just further along the road. We too have an issue with bio-ethics gaining too much leverage in the affairs for the family dictating what constitutes 'ethics' in a public medical system. My warning is simple: it's a cowardly way to justify eugenics in order to control the population. We shouldn't be swayed by the claims it is a reasoned approach to progress.

It isn't for how would you feel if you were treated like cogs in a machine as your child died before your eyes all with the grotesque tacit approval of bureaucrats?  

Unless Canadians have the will and foresight to prevent its growing influence  we will one day have our own Alfie.

When it does. We will have 'jumped the shark' and lost our humanity.

Don't be like the UK. They're not our spiritual guidance no more.

Utah Jazz Fans Upset Westbrook; Makes T.C. A Fan

Poor guy.

Words offend him.

"As Westbrook walked to the tunnel following the Thunder's 96-91 loss, where he scored 46 points on 43 shots, he slapped at a fan's cellphone. It was the second interaction Westbrook had with a courtside fan, with him turning and snapping at one that said something to him as he exited the floor at halftime.

"I think it's something that needs to be brought up," he continued. "I'm tired of just going out and playing, then the fans saying whatever the hell they want to say. I'm not with that. If I was on the street, they wouldn't just come up to me and say anything crazy, because I don't play that s---. So, to disrespect me and do whatever they want to do needs to be put to a stop, especially here in Utah."

Gah.

The modern athlete is insufferable.

NBA stars and coaches can yap and flap their gums (pompously even in some cases) about their opinions on issues that may offend part of their fans basis, but heaven forbid they vent and express themselves.

When Pop and James talk it's free speech and 'truth to power', when the fans do it it's 'disrespectful'.

So it's easy to say, 'oh, shut up and dribble'. You're not above anyone.

The Woke ESPN stinks, as if it's not obvious by now, because it automatically sides with the athletes. Some of the worst commentary on history and social issues come from ESPN in my opinion. I rarely see them (and most journalists) ever side with the fans. The fans are the deplorables.

Yet...

They pay the tickets. They're the ones who keep the whole damn thing rolling with no financial gain. If they're vulgar good. Quite frankly, I hate sports in its current form. Corporate, formulaic, clean....the true, hard core fan has been all but rooted out. The best section are inhabited by a bunch of tight asses who twitch if they hear a bad word.

It's boring.

Westbrook is boring.

As is Lebron James.

And millionaire athletes who complain.

EXHORBITANT SALARIES PAID FOR BY THE FANS.

Quit your yapping Westbrook and do your job.

Jesus, what a whining bunch of babies we've become in North America.

The UK Starves A Child For The World To See

Watch the UK kill a child in real time. My heart aches at my disgust of England and its citizens. Do you understand how evil and depraved a society you have to be to STARVE A CHILD? A most worthless, little island filled with depraved little statists.

The state broke this family.

Theresa May. May God have mercy on you.

I pray - pray - the Canadian system never goes astray like this. We must NOT let bio-ethics drive our compassion in our hospitals.  It's an evil we mustn't accept.

What if the doctors are wrong with Alfie? Poland and Italy are willing to take care of him. Why stop the family? 

It's interesting when someone kills people in a rampage there's outrage. The state kills a child and we get mostly silence. Who will speak and march for children like Alfie?

Stand With Saskatchewan Against The Carbon Tax

The Canadian Taxpayers Federation is asking Canadians sign a petition against the Liberal's carbon tax.

As it stands, Premier Moe is standing defiant against it and he deserves our support.

Why?

Cost:

"With potential costs of up to $2,569 per year for the average Canadian family by 2022, the carbon tax will also increase the price of food and clothing, and will mean lost jobs and struggling or bankrupt businesses."

$2500 is a lot of money.

-In addition to this the Liberals already

-Stopped the child tax credit benefit Canadians have enjoyed for years.
-Income splitting. This is one is especially baffling. It was a great strategy for families.
-Reduced the allowable maximum for a TFSA.
-Exploding spending with the notion 'the budget will balance itself'.

None of these help the middle-class in anyway. How they claim to help the middle-class with a straight face is a little comical.

NHS Is Run By Evil People; England Holds Baby Hostage - Canada Needs To Pay Attention

Sohrab Ahmari‏Verified account @SohrabAhmari

Sohrab Ahmari Retweeted Judith Moritz

This reads like a hostage note. The @AlderHey staff had spoke on background to the press, saying Alfie's isn't going home until there was a "sea change" in the father's attitude, i.e., submission to his social betters. Nurse Ratched comes to mind.

Sohrab Ahmari added,

Absolutely crazy.

England is a cult. An evil cult.

The lack of basic humanity is astonishing.

I had plans to one day visit England. Forget it. It has no soul.

“Sometimes, the sad fact is that parents do not know what is best for their child,”…

And you do? Nurse Ratchet would be proud.

Professor of Medical Ethics, Director of Medical Ethics, Oxford Uehiro Centre for Practical Ethics; Consultant Neonatologist, John Radcliffe Hospital; Senior Research Fellow, Jesus College

Ugh. That's ugly stuff right there.

'Bio-ethics' is a way to justify murder. All it does it let hyper-rational calculations erode our sense of humanity. Know what they are? Bullies.

What chance could people possibly have against such a well-oiled monstrous machine? My family had to fight against a hospital too. After a few carefully choice words, we managed to save our father the doctors wanted to kill. 15 years later he's still with us. If we listened to people like Wilkinson who purport to be reasoned and rational, he'd be gone. Sometimes it goes a little beyond such a calculus. Humans aren't damn robots.

Yes. Yes, I would grab him by the collar if it were me. Absolutely.

It doesn't take a genius to see where it can and will end up. England is on an awful path and Canadians can't afford to be aloof. We have a universal public health system and already our family rights are tenuous and do face the bureaucracy when it comes to sensitive issues.

Under no circumstance should the bureaucracy EVER take precedence over the family. EVER.

Once we get there, you may as well set up the gulags and be done with it.

What good is a system if it lacks compassion and respect for families?

Why is England so dead set against leaving these people grieve in their own way? Why prevent them from going to Italy? To protect the reputation of NHS? What reputation? It already made clear it will tolerate the death of kids.

Are they not free to do as they see fit?



I don't know what it is about this story but it really, really, really fucken pissed me off on so many levels.

It should open our eyes to asking the government to take care of our needs. The government doesn't give a shit about you or your family.

You know. The Americans are 100% correct to defend the 2A. With jerkoffs like Wilkinson lurking among us, the people need to stay free. And for the love of God....don't fall prey to the likes of Bernie Sanders. This is where it all ends up with left-wingers.

It's a kind of death panel. Palin was correct all along. A social system allows for people like Wilkinson to enter and take over your family.

Stay away from that shit.

Sirius goes totes woke like Starbucks.

Sirius XM fired Nick DiPaolo for a distasteful tweet. You can support the most murderous of ideologies and nothing will happen to you. Make one bad Tweet while being conservative and you're out. I really don't see what a Tweet has to do with his show to the extent this was the reason for his dismissal. She made her play (she advocates for violence by the way) and he made his. Move on. To me, this was an over reaction.

As a subscriber, I'm quite irritated by it. So much so I wrote to voice my displeasure and canceled the radio portion of my subscription. I will consider the other part soon.

The problem is terrestrial radio (with the exception of a couple of shows) is a cess pool of political correct rubbish and banal personalities. I can't go back.

The sad thing is I viewed Sirius as a sort of refuge for the free speech diaspora.

I was sadly mistaken and this is quite unfortunate.

I may just sign up for podcasts of my favourite radio personalities. Why pay $20.99 a month if they're gonna fire the shows you invest time in?

Fuck it.

Hank Azaria too is woke now. In the wake of some guy's sensitive concerns about the stereotyping of Apu on The Simpsons, Azaria feels:

"I've given this a lot of thought, and as I say my eyes have been opened," he said. "I think the most important thing is to listen to Indian people and their experience with it."

After all these years working on an animated satire show his 'eyes opened'? Really? 

Who's next Fat Tony? Krusty? Mayor Quimby? Cletus? Willy? Uter? 

I really hope Joe Mantegna doesn't agree with Hank.

I wonder if Hank feels the same way the way liberals (predictably and without much wit) constantly mock Christians and Christianity? 

"I really want to see Indian, South Asian writers in the writers room… including how [Apu] is voiced or not voiced. 

Okay Hank. Would you be open to letting in rednecks for Cletus? Scots for Willy and Italians for Fat Tony? Let's have everyone represented and be all diversey!

"I'm perfectly willing and happy to step aside, or help transition it into something new. 

"It not only makes sense, it just feels like the right thing to do to me."

Here's the thing. Of all the characters on The Simpsons, Apu is actually the most productive. He owns store and is a patriotic American who in one episode even offered Lisa some spiritual guidance.

There's little to be upset about when it comes to Apu. He's a great character and it's a shame Hank caved to this like he did.

So long. You've lost the plot. On a show that seemed to be wavering around aimlessly, the last thing they need is Azaria going politically correct.

Do these two (the guy who complained and Azaria who seem to be the only two people who suddenly have an issue with it) guys even listen to how puerile they sound? It's a FUCKEN CARTOON character. Get over yourselves guys.

If Azaria's woke ways catches on, watch out, someone will have to apologize for Merrie Melodies.

I wonder if this could reinvigorate the show. If not, it may be time to wind it down before its legacy is damaged by the SJW virus.

What a shame. The Simpsons was the gold standard and has become an intricate part of popular culture giving viewers some of the most memorable scenes in television history.

What In The Living Hell Is Going On In The UK?

Frightening.

Welcome to 1984.

And the comments from people defending this depraved behaviour. What the frick?

Italy and Poland are basically telling you you're acting like assholes and you stick to it?

Time for the Brits to take back their country looks like. Your family does NOT belong to damn bureaucrats.

I hope Canadians are paying close attention because this is what universal public health can devolve into. TYRANNY.

The NHS is pure evil. They're literally starving a child to death in order to preserve the reputation of NHS. Doctor's aren't God and the government mandating this child die even though the family wants to go to Italy is beyond comprehension and lacking in humanity.

If this is NHS. Burn it to the ground and start anew because it lacks any sense or morality.

This is pure horror unfolding in the UK.

And the cops? Just following orders eh chaps?

Always remember. Americans who opposed Obamacare care were and will always be right because it's a path to EXACTLY this. In Canada, we're not there yet but the system does hold too much sway over our own decisions where family matters are concerned. Canadians NEED to pay attention to this story lest we lose our humanity and go the route of Britain which I completely reject.

Europe is NOT a model to emulate. Europe (outside a couple of countries) is in existential crisis and in cultural turmoil. It's chaos. Europe no longer serves as an advanced society we should look up to.

The EU And UK: A Cautionary Tale For North America

In one story, the saga of Alfie Evans, we see why it's a bad idea to fully nationalize medicine. Unfortunately, in Canada we have it and we're but a pebble's throw from becoming the UK on matters of the rights of parents to deal with their sick or dying child as they see fit.

Do Brits really believe they're free? The government decides in the end what becomes of their own children.

It's macabre and immoral. How a once free people could consent to such a state of affairs is beyond comprehension. Worse than that, the EU has twice ruled against families in their rights to determine what to do with their own kids.

Interestingly, we tend to see these sort of sad stories mostly from the hyper-secular sensibilities of the 'hypoboreans' in Northern Europe. Their existence seems to funnel through the state. We see less of such stories in Southern Europe (the Mediterranean).

This in a country that lets Muslim sex rings operate and ISIS fighters back in the country but puts citizens in jail for 8-months for flipping off government cameras. Is it me or have they gone off the rails? They have it exactly BACKWARDS. It seems like they're too PC or cowardly to investigate and prosecute real crime so they over-compensate by cracking down on law-abiding citizens nitpicking at silly indiscretions. This is the face of a society facing an existential crisis if you ask me.

Anyway.

It's none of your business and if you actually defend the government in such matters, I'd like to submit you lack a fundamental sense of decency and humanity.

None of this compassionate.

It's immoral.

If it's an issue of cost, then it further should anger because it's not about money. We talk about 'compassion' and 'values' in the West but we understand none of these. We yap on about 'gender' and 'pay gaps' but these are just empty words masking as 'caring for the greater good'.

They say you judge a society on how it treats its poor or sick.

Well, there you have it. We see what the EU/UK is about. I hope Canadians see this and draw a line. The Americans are still further away as they maintain some level of liberty not seen in the West.

Trump Crazy Like A Fox On North Korea

Looks like Trump 'outcrazied' Kim of North Korea.

Sometimes. All you need is a little twitching eye know what I'm saying?

Anyway. Two years in and Trump has a significant triumph under his belt. Probably the biggest for any President since Reagan when the Soviet Union fell.

If Trump can keep the economy growing, reduce or cut onerous Obama-era regulations that strangled business, cut a deal on immigration and win a showdown with the Chinese (who stopped supporting North Korea likely because of Trump) on trade and industrial espionage....well, if Obama was over praised and given a Nobel Peace prize without merit, what the heck will they give Trump?

In any event, this may amount to nothing and we're mostly getting sources from inside North Korea.

Let's just monitor this.

The Class Of Sidney Crosby

I'm not one to prop celebrities and athletes up as role models but the reality is people do. And if you're going to insist on one, I think Sidney Crosby is probably among the best super star in North American pro sports to fill that role.

When measured against other notable athletes, like Lebron James, Crosby towers about them all in my opinion and James in particular.

Where Crosby has the decency to keep his political opinions to himself and doesn't publicly argue with people on Twitter or disparage or get coaches fired, James is all to ready to engage in such activity. It's hard to imagine Crosby pulling that 'I'm taking my game to Miami' act a few years back like James did. Talk about insensitive and ill-advised.

For the past couple of yeas, James has come off looking like a selfish phony whose antics give the impression he's above the team.

James strikes me as someone who is uncomfortable in his own skin. I don't know why. It's just the perception. A player who yearns for some much attention and adulation it gets the better of his senses. He has a little A-Rod in him when you think of it.

I don't care how great you are. You're not the coach or owner of the team you represent and pays your salary. As such, there's a certain decorum that's expected of a true talented leader in my view.

Contrast this to Sidney Crosby who holds himself in exemplary fashion on and off the ice. The other day I heard a woman say, 'if my daughter met someone, I would like him to be like Sidney.'

That's saying a lot and by all accounts from what we've seen of him over the years, she may not be off the mark in her hopes.

It seems to be something particular to NHL players. All its legends tended to be of this character from Howe to Beliveau to Orr to Gretzky right up to the latest phenom Conor McDavid.

All - every single one of them - put the interest of their team above their ego.

Sidney is all about the team. He's all about respect and humility.

Something I just don't see in the brilliant athlete that is Lebron James.

Starbucks And Philadelphia Police Chief: Woke Leadership

So.

What have we learned about Starbucks and Philadelphia Commissioner?

That they have no qualms throwing a poor young girl under the bus.

What a disgraceful fucken scene.

Well. I guess Starbucks is off my (growing) list of companies I won't do business with. Bunch of disloyal and gutless cowards run that company.

What a sad spectacle of false leadership.

First we had 'eh was just buying Skittles' (he was not); and then we had 'Hands up' (which he didn't have up) and now we have 'they were just waiting for friends.'

Horse. Shit. Like any sane and responsible person, if the owner of an establishment asks you to leave, you fricken leave. And if the cops are called in and ask you to leave, you better damn leave or accept the consequences of your ignorant defiance.

Commies Are Bad For You

Whenever I look at country statistics, it generally always struck me at how poorly not just - obviously - communist/socialist countries do but former ones as well. I chalked it up to old habits die hard and that was that.

Fresno Professor Flips Out Over Barbara Bush's Passing

Sigh. Another professor, another idiot spews hate:

“Barbara Bush was a generous and smart and amazing racist who, along with her husband, raised a war criminal. F*** outta here with your nice words,”

Isn't Jeb married to a Mexican?

Anyway.

“PSA: either you are against these pieces of s— and their genocidal ways or you’re part of the problem. That’s actually how simple this is. I’m happy the witch is dead. Can’t wait for the rest of her family to fall to their demise the way 1.5 million Iraqis have,” Jarrar wrote, cruelly adding that she was happy “George W. Bush is probably really sad right now.”

Nice girl. Well brought up. She's quite dark and black inside. I have no interest in naming her here.

She's exactly what an institution of higher institution needs, eh? Couldn't this be considered 'hate speech' according to the left's standards? This is a perfect example of the point I make on this blog. There's no such thing as 'hate speech'. There's just speech; and she's entitled to it.

But that doesn't mean we can't criticize or chastise the opinion.

Geez, is it always all projection with these people?

She wasn't quite done:

“I work as a tenured professor. I make 100K a year doing that. I will never be fired. I will always have people wanting to hear what I have to say,” she wrote on Twitter.

She's right. Which sort of makes you wonder if schools should revisit how they hand those out. If half-twit lefties like her get it, it makes a mockery of it in my view.

Other than that, she's probably right. She's a woman, fat and Arab. She has all the bases covered.

One day it will revert back to a more normalized state of affairs, but for now we'll have to tolerate the loony left moonbats who roam angrily among us.

However, there are some things we can do to kickstart bringing sense back.

Never apologize and fire them. She wants to be all bad ass faux-rebel let her go write books or write for The Nation, New Republic or NYT. There's good business in ignorance and anti-American nonsense.

You will feel empowered and your dignity will be restored.

And by the way, by all accounts, Twitter left her alone. What a surprise.

The Return Of The Fake Anti-War Protestor

Aaaand out come the anti-war posers who laid dormant for eight years.

Funny. They didn't seem to care (which Obama managed to keep out of the deadbeat mainstream press) when Obama dropped bombs during his reign over seven countries.

Not only that, he wanted to bomb Syria (but Congress did its job and adhered to public sentiment which stood against it). I highly doubt they would have come out and protested.

They couldn't care less about Syria or its people. They just care about who is doing the bombing.


In other words, they lack principles.

California Now Into Book Banning

The question isn't when 1984 will arrive....it already has folks.

You can choose to be oblivious but this has gotten really troubling and dangerous.

Here's another example of, ahem, conservatives being like progressives. Banning literature. Be it books or pamphlets or whatever. Either way, it's not good.

The left, aided and abetted by the increasingly unhinged state of California, now bans books as Bill 2943 does.

"It’s interesting, for example, that Chait makes the argument just as the California State Assembly is set to vote on a billthat would actually — among other things — ban the sale of books expressing orthodox Christian beliefs about sexual morality."

Progressives are big on 'if you do freely choose to do this, you're complicit in (insert whatever issue of the day they selectively choose to be outraged about)'.

At what point then, do progressive writers like those at the NYT or Chair or anyone else who have been rather astonishingly irresponsible and intellectually vapid, have to face their role when government decides to silence voices which is frighteningly happening in California? 

It's not your voice now, but it will be yours tomorrow, no?

But hey, don't expect them to ponder beyond their myopic world. Too busy confirming their awesomeness handing each other out Pulitzer Prizes. "Aren't you swell? We're swell, right? Yeh, we're swell!"

To a naturally skeptical well--informed sober mind, this was the inevitable logical end to their behaviour. That the natural final destination of progressivism is authoritarianism. 

Of course, it's specious nonsense and rarely, if ever, proven. Progressives are not big on prove (see Starbucks incident as but one mere, small example) and truth.

It's too pesky.

The left rather enjoys mocking the imaginary white supremacists set to send us back to the stone age.

Yet, here they are. Banning books. I thought it was the, given the general narrative and tone of the times, that was the exclusive job of the deplorables to do that.

And once again, let me remind it's all projection.

The true witch hunters here is the progressive left. They've gone completely off track and strictly into authoritarian mode.

Until the media and politicians stop blindly siding with them, this will get worse. 

California, like a distorted hideous and mangled portrait, likens itself to being a trail blazer. That once upon a time was a state to be emulated. 

Now?

Now, it must be stopped.

Quote of the day:

"...Yet the numerous signs waved by the protesters contained such slogans as “Rule of Law = White Supremacy” and “The First Amendment is Not a Licence [sic] to Dehumanize Marginalized People.” Students shouted “Legal objectivity is a myth” and “F – – k the law.” CUNY Law’s National Lawyers Guild chapter tweeted that “free speech” activists are “not welcome at our PUBLIC INTEREST school.” Is this the face of “social justice”?"

The progressive left folks.

In all its inglorious stupidity. 

North And South Korea Set To Announce End To War

So, I was reading about some comedian - Maria Bamford - filing a restraining order against Trump over 'nuclear anxiety'.

Then I read about North and South Korea set to announce officially ending the war.

Something President Trump had a hand in making happen.

This is the single most important foreign policy development in years and it happened under this administration.

Progressive love to bash 'Trumpsters' for their (alleged) ignorance.

I say it's all projection.

Starbucks Wokeness Induces Coma

So Starbucks is shutting operations I believe on May 29 to send their employees to 'ReNedification' (well, actually they call it 'racial bias education'. Creepy shit) in the aftermath of what happened in a Starbucks in Philadelphia. Wha happened no one knows but that didn't stop the perpetual outrage machine from capitalizing on what they *think* happened - Starbucks included.

These are very scary times. Law enforcement agencies have gone full rogue (with the left cheerleading them on), newspapers making stuff up (and get nominated for a Pulitzer for making shit up about Russia as the NYT and WaPo were. These award ceremonies are just incestuous showboating for insider crowd be it the Nobel Prize (who kinda lost their way) or the Oscars), left-wing organization shutting down free speech wherever they go and exist whether it's on campuses or comedy shows.

It's just nuts.

And now we have 'woke' corporations and CEOs jumping all over this 'we offer safe spaces' and 'diversity' PC/SJW madness. Their playing their part in the Marxist march towards eradicating liberty and little do they know it will end with them metaphorically being lined up against the wall.

I don't know what happened in Philly because no one has explained it. No one has spoken to the manager and the cops are still looking into it.

However, judging by how the media is acting - they have decided it was 'two black men who were waiting for a friend'. Shades of 'he was shot for buying Skittles'. Come to think of it, I'm surprised Skittles didn't go all woke after the Trayvon Martin saga - it wouldn't surprise me there would be more to the story.

I'm guessing - and it's just a guess - they were indeed loitering and refused to leave and when the cops came they lipped off. A company has every right to ask someone to leave and if they don't, it becomes trespassing. Unless, Starbucks has a different policy; which is their right.

Nonetheless, the Starbucks move is baffling. Never mind they seem to be throwing their manager under the bus, they basically are saying to their workers they're racist and need to make doubly sure they won't act out.

It's insulting to their employees and to what's left of their sane customer base.

Running after the PC/SJW crowd will never pay off. It may score some cheap virtue signalling points in the short-run but in the long-run? It will never be enough for them. Starbucks isn't an ally or a partner..Just a convenient vehicle tops their ideology.

You know. When I read about Starbucks history, Italy's coffee culture inspired it.

They've completely veered off their essence because quite frankly their coffee and the way it's prepared is woefully inferior to what you will experience in Italy.

Maybe, instead of wasting everyone's time, they teach their employees to be true baristas and serve us better coffee.

In other words, do your damn jobs.

Do it with pride.

Like in Italy.
