In Sept., after Chinese virologist Dr. Li-Meng, in conjunction with three other doctors, published a paper showing there was a good deal of scientific evidence that Covid 19 was created in a Wuhan lab, Twitter suspended her account. The sanctimonious defenders of political correctness always know the Truth and see no need to submit such issues to free and open debate!
In Charlotte N. Carolina, during the Republican National Convention, a Black preacher approached a crowd of BLM protestors declaring that “Jesus saves!” Their response was “Fuck Jesus.” One wonders at the level of media coverage had it been a collection of Christians shouting “Fuck Mohamed.”
In June the Minneapolis City Council voted to de-fund the police. In Sept. that same Democrat dominated panel, outraged by the continuing violence in the city’s streets, demanded the Police Chief explain why his officers were unable to deal with the situation. Over 100 cops resigned this past summer, he told them. Duh!
Re. the intelligence of those whom Obama declared to be America’s “hope for the future:” In mid-September Pamela Geller reported that a survey had shown approximately 2/3 of young Americans knew next to nothing about the Holocaust. Twenty-three percent of those questioned thought it was a myth! One in ten actually thought that the Jews had caused it! To those responsible for the education of our young, our heartiest congratulations!
A U.S. Crisis Monitor, the ACLED, operating in affiliation with Princeton U., has announced that 95% of the violence and destruction, including 47 murders, perpetrated in the States from the day of George Floyd’s death until Sept. 5, was caused by BLM. While that group has apparently inflicted over 2 billion dollars of damage on America’s infrastructure, Michelle Obama recently referred to it once again as a mostly peaceful movement.
On Fri., Aug 21, Don Lemon of CNN, in conversation with fellow genius Chris Cuomo, stated that anyone willing to vote for Trump was no more than a “cultist” who needed to be “deprogrammed.” Utterly condescending, incapable of granting there might be any other point of view than his own, he generously asserted that if he had a friend who had been brainwashed, he would certainly do everything in his power to help him.
In a CNN report on Kenosha shortly after the Aug. 23 shooting of Jacob Blake, an on-screen caption referred to the “violent protests” that had broken out in that city. Approximately 15 seconds later the word “violent” was removed from the chyron. CNN had accidentally told the truth for 15 seconds!
Equally absurd, a reporter from that same network was at one point going on about the mostly peaceful protests in Kenosha even as flames could be seen in the background reducing a building to ashes.
And Don Lemon thinks “conservatives” are the delusional “cultists”!
On Sept. 15 The Blaze reported that two football players from Little Miami High School in Morrow, Ohio, had been suspended for bearing flags to a Sept.11 game honoring the First Responders of 911. The father of one of the kids was a cop, the other a fire fighter. As the authorities at the school, deeming patriotism to be inherently inflammatory, had denied the request of the two young men to honor those who had lost their lives on 911, they felt it necessary to punish their impudence.
White Westerners are no more or less prone to Evil than any other sector of the species. It is their achievements that separate them from much of the rest of the world. But the essence of Marxism is its equation of Success with Oppression. Buying into this ludicrously flawed hypothesis, “progressives” have turned against the very values that have made us what we are. How else would you explain the punishment of a couple of kids whose only crime was to honor the dead from the most horrific day in American history? How else would you explain that in Portland Ore. yesterday [Oct. 11], protesters toppled the statues of Abraham Lincoln and Theodore Roosevelt, the one responsible for ending slavery in the U.S., the other the most “progressive” president in the country’s history?
Portland’s “day of rage” was a response to the approach of Columbus Day, the protesters scornfully declaring that Columbus hadn’t discovered anything because millions of Indigenous were already in the Americas. No mention, of course, of the fact that they were almost constantly at war with each other, almost constantly usurping the lands of their neighbors, indeed frequently cannibalizing not only their enemies but their very own children in various ritualized sacrifices to their gods. No room for Facts in the grossly simplistic world of the political Left. No room for the moral complexities of life. The point of Sunday’s “rage” was quite simply that Western Europeans have no right to be in the Americas.
Camille Paglia says the West is now where Ancient Rome was in the Fifth Century shortly before its demise, brought to this point by an Ideology which has become little more than a species of religious dementia, its basic article of faith being Marcuse’s grossly simplistic, historically absurd, Neo-Marxist contention that White Western European Man is the vilest creature to have ever walked the face of the earth.
As religious fanatics do not feel unduly bound by Reason [ “progressives” significantly argue that Reason is just a Western eccentricity], the simpletons of the contemporary Left will cancel your right to Free Speech even as they celebrate their supposed “liberalism;” will deny the realities of History even as they declare their devotion to the Truth; will support policies like the de-funding of the police even as they blame others for the consequences of their stupidity; will declare a Movement peaceful even as its fervor for destruction manifests itself day after day; indeed will denounce as “cultists” all those who dare disagree with them for the simple, demonstrable reason that they cannot possibly repudiate them with rational, moral arguments.
