Despite controlling the narrative, scientists in Canada claim to be muzzled by the government.
Muzzling, censorship, whatever, all bad. I'd rather they just have their say. You know where I stand on this issue. I'm consistent. Unlike the middling, paid pundits with a platform to spew their tiny little ideas. Like, I don't know, people like Jonathan Capehart - Washington Post's finest - and his 'extremist' gibbering.
Let them own their words.
Nor do I go unhinged like the climate cultists asking for people to be imprisoned for having a different opinion.
Particularly given the horrible track record of accuracy on their side. Imagine putting people in prison for, say, having challenged Erhlich's assertion that 'England would cease to exist by 2000'?

Joke Of The Day
A blonde is watching the news with her husband when the newscaster says “Two Brazilian men die in a skydiving accident.”
The blonde starts crying to her husband, sobbing “That’s horrible!!! So many men dying that way!”
Confused, he says, “Yes dear, it is sad, but they were skydiving, and there is always that risk involved.”
After a few minutes, the blonde, still sobbing, says, “How many is a Brazilian?”

Quote Of The Day
"Understand, climate change did not cause the conflicts we see around the
world. Yet what we also know is that severe drought helped to create
the instability in Nigeria that was exploited by the terrorist group
Boko Haram. It’s now believed that drought and crop failures and high
food prices helped fuel the early unrest in Syria, which descended into
civil war in the heart of the Middle East."
-Obama
Except the weather in Nigeria hasn't changed all that much for quite some times. This anti-intellectual shtick of assigning climate change to all sorts of global problems and issues is rather discomforting and disturbing. Who in their right logical mind would correlate Boko Haram's rise and violence to climate? It's almost as if we've become incapable of understanding such organizations for what they are.
I'm getting the distinct feeling Obama, faced with an uncooperative Congress while mired in a state of lame-duckness, is just gonna speak from the heart. And as we saw with his speech to Coast Guard graduates, it's immature as it is unprofessional as it is irresponsible.
I mean, to flat out claim climate change erodes national security is waaaay out there.
Too much for me anyway.

You Oughta Help
There's plenty of evidence that humans are naturally 'communistic' creatures. That is, they voluntarily come to help thy neighbors. The idea that we must have the state interfere on our behalf is a fairly recent phenomena. This political socialism has proven to, if anything, bring much misery through coercion. Even its benign 'democratic' form has not provided the results intended. And therein lies a huge problem. Whenever confronted with the reality (backed by statistics) we choose to throw more money at a problem rather than offer any meaningful or innovative solutions so committed to the progressive collective. Make no mistake about it, ours - the West- has been a progressive experiment for well over 100 years now. The so-called 'neo-liberal' policies are more the exception than the rule.
***
I do not accept the notion of redistributive wealth without proper consent. Admittedly, I sway to and fro with the concept of 'the wisdom of crowds'; the notion that a majority of people possess the wisdom for our collective mutual benefit. I reckon this may be plausible in certain instances but how could seven out of 10 people actually profess to understand or know the particular and personal circumstance of the other three?
And as the video argues, where the minority resist, is it 'fair' or just to use force against them thus violating their rights; nay, moral conscience?
Currently, in contemporary times, we're witnessing tyranny of the majority. Be it Christian bakers being mauled by lynch mobs, cartoonists merely depicting a religious figure in ways not accepted to some, to people who absolutely can't tolerate other views (and I squarely and frankly assert the left are the worst offenders of such anti-intellectual that directly threaten civil liberties) publicly shaming them on social media and campuses.
Freedom of speech and expression is a preciously young concept. It must be defended at every turn.

OUTRAGEOUS! TOWN OF GRANBY GOES TYRANNICAL
The town of Granby has made American news.
Congratulations.
Quebec only seems to matter whenever we attack freedom of speech and expression.
And we do this very well. Too well I fear.
All of you - look at me. Every single one of you out there.
We're one step closer to being in a situation where criticizing politicians will be outlawed.
This is precisely why we must absolutely and unequivocally not allow politicians to control the internet. They will use it to muzzle the people.
Are you listening?
Let Granby be a retarded derelict among towns. As long as we don't let them become the rule. We must keep them as the exception.
It is absolutely staggeringly outrageous this law passed.
So. Without further ado let me stand and be heard on this matter.
Fuck you, Riel and the Granby council.

“I grew up poor and white. While my class oppression has been relatively visible to me, my race privilege has not. In my efforts to uncover how race has shaped my life, I have gained deeper insight by placing race in the center of my analysis and asking how each of my other group locations have socialized me to collude with racism. In so doing, I have been able to address in greater depth my multiple locations and how they function together to hold racism in place.

The U.S. under Kissinger supported the Kurds? This scholar seems to think so.

“...It was previously thought that the US had willfully sold the Kurds out, but declassified documents suggest that the US, Secretary of State Henry Kissinger in particular, was actually more committed to the Kurds than previously believed,” Gibson said."
"...There is no question that parts of the US government were opposed to the Kurdish intervention, but Kissinger showed no interest in scaling back US support for the Kurds and, on more than one occasion, increased US assistance to the Kurds despite resistance from the CIA,” Gibson said."

Campus leaders said while they believe the posters were meant more as satire, especially since no names were associated with them, they determined the flyers went too far with their message.
“When you are talking about minority activism, it is very easy that if you are in the majority to say ‘well, this sort of activism is not necessary. This sort of zeal in your activism is over the top.’ For minorities who experience discrimination, that is not the case,” Student Government Vice President Jacob Schriner-Biggs said.
After consulting with the Vice President of Student Life, it was decided to take the posters down, not necessarily because of its topic but because of the coarse language."

The forgotten racial attitudes of Woodrow Wilson.
"...Wilson is widely and correctly remembered — and represented in our history books — as a progressive Democrat who introduced many liberal reforms at home and fought for the extension of democratic liberties and human rights abroad. But on the issue of race his legacy was, in fact, regressive and has been largely forgotten.
Born in Virginia and raised in Georgia and South Carolina, Wilson was a loyal son of the old South who regretted the outcome of the Civil War. He used his high office to reverse some of its consequences. When he entered the White House a hundred years ago today, Washington was a rigidly segregated town — except for federal government agencies. They had been integrated during the post-war Reconstruction period, enabling African-Americans to obtain federal jobs and work side by side with whites in government agencies. Wilson promptly authorized members of his cabinet to reverse this long-standing policy of racial integration in the federal civil service.
Cabinet heads — such as his son-in-law, Secretary of the Treasury William McAdoo of Tennessee – re-segregated facilities such as restrooms and cafeterias in their buildings. In some federal offices, screens were set up to separate white and black workers. African-Americans found it difficult to secure high-level civil service positions, which some had held under previous Republican administrations.
A delegation of black professionals led by Monroe Trotter, a Phi Beta Kappa graduate of Harvard and Boston newspaper editor, appeared at the White House to protest the new policies. But Wilson treated them rudely and declared that “segregation is not a humiliation but a benefit, and ought to be so regarded by you gentlemen.”
How in the world did African-Americans come to support Democrats?

"However, the new logo has not sat well with all fans and it stirred up a debate in Sweden this week after a self-proclaimed Native American reported the team to the Swedish Equality Ombudsman (Diskrimineringsombudsmannen, DO).
He wrote: “I want to report their logo to you and I want to demand that it is changed because it is offensive to all Indians and it uses a stereotypical image of Indians.”
Oh shut up you idiot. What the fuck do you know?
I tell ya, people like this dink are really getting on my nerves.

The Detroit Red Wings name and its roots in Montreal.
"Norris had been a member of the Montreal Amateur Athletic Association, a sporting club with cycling roots. The MAAA's teams were known by their club emblem and these Winged Wheelers were the first winners of the Stanley Cup in 1893. Norris decided that a version of their logo was perfect for a team playing in the Motor City and on October 5, 1932 the club was renamed the Red Wings."

When asked if he could intervene on humanitarian grounds by a reporter, Mayor Coderre cynically responded he 'could do nothing.'
Bull shit. He's the fucking Mayor in a thoroughly corrupt city infamous for being run by megalomaniacal dictators.

"My area of research is in Whiteness Studies and Critical Discourse Analysis, explicating how Whiteness is reproduced in everyday discourse.
“I grew up poor and white. While my class oppression has been relatively visible to me, my race privilege has not. In my efforts to uncover how race has shaped my life, I have gained deeper insight by placing race in the center of my analysis and asking how each of my other group locations have socialized me to collude with racism. In so doing, I have been able to address in greater depth my multiple locations and how they function together to hold racism in place. I now make the distinction that I grew up poor and white, for my experience of poverty would have been different had I not been white”

Oregon has lost its fucking mind.
Judge orders $135 000 fine to be paid by bakery who refused to serve gay couple.
".Rachel Bowman-Cryer should collect $75,000 and her wife, Laurel Bowman-Cryer, $60,000 from the owners of Sweet Cakes by Melissa, an administrative law judge for the Oregon Bureau of Labor and Industries said in a proposed order released Friday, April 24."
These two clowns should receive jack shit. I guess the judge isn't worried want kind of precedent this can set. If I'm an unscrupulous gay couple (and I'm pretty sure they exist) I'm ambulance chasing this to the bank. Why not? Pieces of shits like Sharpton and Jackson have made cynical, opportunistic and evil careers out of it.
The judge, furthermore, and this goes for people who support this crap of demanding people act against their conscience, is fine with destroying a family's source of income. When you ruin a business, you take away a family's ability to live and when you do this you weaken your community.
So in this way, the judge can go rot in a hole somewhere.

The U.S. under Kissinger supported the Kurds? This scholar seems to think so.
"...In his forthcoming book, Sold Out? US Foreign Policy, Iraq, the Kurds, and the Cold War, Gibson rejects claims that the US backed Iraq’s 1963 coup and says the US was more supportive of Kurd forces in their 1970s battles with Baghdad than was previously thought.
“From 1958-75, US foreign
policy in Iraq was designed to prevent it becoming a Soviet satellite,”
Gibson told Rudaw. “This led to a series of covert operations to support
groups inside Iraq that were opposed to Moscow’s imperial designs, like
the Baath Party in the early 1960s and the Kurds in the 1970s.”
According to Gibson, the CIA
and President John F Kennedy’s administration are widely-viewed to have
backed the February 1963 Baath Party coup that toppled Iraqi Prime
Minister Abd al-Karim Qasim and paved the way for Saddam Hussein’s
eventual rise to power.
“Declassified documents and
interviews with former CIA officials, who had been involved in plotting
against the Qasim regime, raise questions about the extent of US
involvement in the 1963 coup,” said Gibson, a former London School of
Economics scholar..."
“...It was previously thought that the US had willfully sold the Kurds out, but declassified documents suggest that the US, Secretary of State Henry Kissinger in particular, was actually more committed to the Kurds than previously believed,” Gibson said."
"...There is no question that parts of the US government were opposed to the Kurdish intervention, but Kissinger showed no interest in scaling back US support for the Kurds and, on more than one occasion, increased US assistance to the Kurds despite resistance from the CIA,” Gibson said."

With the advent of European Central Bank quantitative easing, what
began four months ago when 10-year Swiss yields turned negative for the
first time has snowballed into a veritable avalanche of negative rates
across European government bond markets. In the hunt for apparently
“safe assets”, investors have thrown caution to the wind, and
collectively determined to pay governments for the privilege of lending
to them.
On a country by country basis, the statistics are even more startling. According to investment bank Jefferies, some 70pc of all German bunds now trade on a negative yield. In France, it's 50pc, and even in Spain, which was widely thought insolvent only a few years ago, it's 17pc."
Germany isn't exactly in great shape either.

More tyranny by PC zealots on college campuses:
"...Leaders with the Student Government Association at Youngstown State University said they decided to act quickly this week when posters showed up on campus promoting “Straight Pride” week next month.
The posters contained profanity, which our station has blurred for viewers. The posters promote the event as a way of not showing the differences between students.
Campus leaders said while they believe the posters were meant more as satire, especially since no names were associated with them, they determined the flyers went too far with their message.
“When you are talking about minority activism, it is very easy that if you are in the majority to say ‘well, this sort of activism is not necessary. This sort of zeal in your activism is over the top.’ For minorities who experience discrimination, that is not the case,” Student Government Vice President Jacob Schriner-Biggs said.
After consulting with the Vice President of Student Life, it was decided to take the posters down, not necessarily because of its topic but because of the coarse language."

The forgotten racial attitudes of Woodrow Wilson.
"...Wilson is widely and correctly remembered — and represented in our history books — as a progressive Democrat who introduced many liberal reforms at home and fought for the extension of democratic liberties and human rights abroad. But on the issue of race his legacy was, in fact, regressive and has been largely forgotten.
Born in Virginia and raised in Georgia and South Carolina, Wilson was a loyal son of the old South who regretted the outcome of the Civil War. He used his high office to reverse some of its consequences. When he entered the White House a hundred years ago today, Washington was a rigidly segregated town — except for federal government agencies. They had been integrated during the post-war Reconstruction period, enabling African-Americans to obtain federal jobs and work side by side with whites in government agencies. Wilson promptly authorized members of his cabinet to reverse this long-standing policy of racial integration in the federal civil service.
Cabinet heads — such as his son-in-law, Secretary of the Treasury William McAdoo of Tennessee – re-segregated facilities such as restrooms and cafeterias in their buildings. In some federal offices, screens were set up to separate white and black workers. African-Americans found it difficult to secure high-level civil service positions, which some had held under previous Republican administrations.
A delegation of black professionals led by Monroe Trotter, a Phi Beta Kappa graduate of Harvard and Boston newspaper editor, appeared at the White House to protest the new policies. But Wilson treated them rudely and declared that “segregation is not a humiliation but a benefit, and ought to be so regarded by you gentlemen.”
How in the world did African-Americans come to support Democrats?

Pen's 145 Can Go Fuck Themselves
No seriously.
You're a bunch of assholes. Do you care whenever Christianity (Piss Christ anyone?) or Jews and Judaism are attacked.
Of course not. Because you're hypocritical assholes.
This is the exact same mindset that appeased Hitler, praised communists as they murdered their way through Europe and defended Mao.
It takes a remarkable world view to deliberately ignore satire when it comes to Islam.
Fucken sickening.
But BRAVO to The Daily Beast. A liberal site I thoroughly have come to respect for their integrity:
"Charlie Hebdo would seem a rather obvious choice for a prize celebrating journalistic courage, considering the newspaper was firebombed in 2011 for producing cartoons satirizing militant Islam, lived with a heavy—but not heavy enough—security presence, and continued to raise a middle finger to those who threatened its journalists with death. But the award was an obvious choice that annoyed more than 200 PEN members—including Eric Bogosian, Wallace Shawn, Junot Diaz, and Peter Carey—who responded to the honor with a campaign of defamation against the dead. Charlie stood accused of, among other sins, trading in “selectively offensive material: material that intensifies the anti-Islamic, anti-Maghreb, anti-Arab sentiments already prevalent in the Western world.”
It was an odd sight; gauche caviar left-wing writers aligning themselves against slain soixante-huitard left-wing cartoonists, all while expressing sympathy with “devout” religious conservatives “humiliated” and “suffering” because of silly drawings from a low-circulation satirical newspaper."
AMEN, pal. Amen.

The Cult Of Scaredy-Cat Nut Cases
From foie gras to sugar to salt to plastic bags to guns. From homeopath products to coffee to alcohol and cigarettes to recycling. From GMO to climate change to vaccines. From race to racialism. From music lyrics to classic novels and films that offend contemporary sensitive sensibilities to the attack and sometimes destruction of freedom of speech. Never mind the disturbing trend of reversing our hallowed maxim of innocent until proven guilty. Nope. Now, it's all burn them at the stake before the facts come in.
It's a culture of fear and control (usually in the incompetent and nonsensical form of bans (for our own good), caps and trades (with negligible results and impact on the environment but a boon for eco-profiteers), taxes that help to spawn create black markets etc). Always has been. Once upon a time we were terrified of gods, witches, technology, and Jews (well, we still are apparently). We just made a trade is all. We're far more ambitious with this climate change thing.
Point is. Aspirin (and Crestor) works.
Irrational behavior (always masked in self-righteous crap or scientific jargon) is a key feature of humanity. Guys like Bloomberg are nanny-ninnies who seek to control in the name of protecting. In the end, all they contribute to the 'greater good' is irrationalism. Often graduating into surreal logic and behavior.
Release your inner reason I say. Appeal to your basic logic free of emotional input. No?
It also seems to happen quite a bit in capitalist systems. But I digress.
Nevertheless, be careful. Be very afraid.

The Law Of Suspects And 145 Intellectuals
How 145 intellectuals can be so stupid is beyond me. Quite frankly, I'm tired of pointing out why the way these people think is bankrupt, dangerous and plain wrong.
145 useless twats is what they are.

1. Immediately after the publication of the present decree, all suspects within the territory of the Republic and still at large, shall be placed in custody.
2. The following are deemed suspects:
1– those who, by their conduct, associations, comments, or writings have shown themselves partisans of tyranny or federalism and enemies of liberty"
They are enemies of liberty. Simple as that.

"This law, passed on 17 September 1793, authorized the
creation of revolutionary tribunals to try those suspected of treason
against the Republic and to punish those convicted with death. This
legislation in effect made the penal justice system into the enforcement
arm of the revolutionary government, which would now set as its primary
responsibility not only the maintenance of public order but also the
much more difficult and controversial task of identifying internal
enemies of the Republic—such as "profiteers" who violated the
Maximum—and then removing them from the citizenry, where they might
subvert the general will.
