The Intersectionality of Online Shitfests, Political Tribalism, Religion, Systemic Oppression, & Useful Idiocy

By Doug “Uncola” Lynn via TheBurningPlatform.com

 

– Liberal democracy is antithetical to multiculturalism.

–  Z-man

 

Of course, Z-man’s quote above would cause a gaggle of snowflakes to scream in unison: “Racism!”.   And, if the past is any indicator, then the next exclamation out their collective mouths would be something like:   “America has always been a nation of immigrants!”  Yet what they fail to consider is how past generations of United States immigrants assimilated into American culture.  This is not happening today.  Indeed. It does appear liberal democracies the world over, have been sacrificed upon the altar of multiculturalism and via the thought-control mechanism enforced by the globalists:  Political Correctness.

In fact, Political Correctness, as a form of thought control, has become a pillar of the New World Order. This means, any idea or perspective which could undermine the foundation of the new global orthodoxies must be challenged without delay.  It’s because dangerous thinking tears at the fabric of the new religion.  In the opinion of this blogger, the non-climate controlled aspect the new religion is an outgrowth of the ever-expanding and evolving theory of Intersectionality; essentially, a conception enabling “those marginalized by society (i.e. victims) to identify the entire grid of systemic oppression called the Matrix of Domination.

In simpler terms, this aspect of the new religion is just another form of racism against so-called privileged Caucasians; although no one cares to admit that in the near-mainstream public forum except for Alex Jones and Ann Coulter.

It’s what was in mind while perusing an online shitfest between two other, near-mainstream, writers and intellectuals who would both likely view this blogger as an obscure and common street thug from the wrong side of the internet.

The two ideological warriors were New York Magazine’s Andrew Sullivan and Vox’s Ezra Klein presenting their opposing views on how people’s belief systems are manifesting currently in American politics; and both articles also brought to mind some of this blogger’s past writings describing the Persistence of Their Delusion, the new religion, The Tyranny of the Collective, and Dirty Deeds Done by the People of the Slough.

In Sullivan’s December 7, 2018 essay entitled America’s New Religions, he claimed liberal snowflakes were bringing about the extreme escalation of political rhetoric and engagement, in order to fill their empty souls with social justice; a new type of faith, as it were.

Days later, Klein responded with his very eloquently-written article entitled “The political tribalism of Andrew Sullivan”.  Therein, Klein contended extreme political escalation has always been an American fact-of-life and that Sullivan was blind to the “perspective of the groups he’s dismissing”.

Ironically, however, Klein, while very effectively addressing Sullivan’s “tribalism”, simultaneously challenged the privilege of those white and Christian, rural and male.

In other words, Ezra Klein engaged in hypocrisy to point out Andrew Sullivan’s hypocrisy.

But isn’t that how it always works with the Political Left?  They continually hold their conservative opponents to account by weaponizing the integrity of said conservatives.  It’s a neat trick and reminiscent of a quote I once heard the actor Jack Nicholson state in a movie. Therein, a woman asked Nicholson (playing an author):  “How do you write about women so well?”

In response, he said:  “First I think of a man. Then, I take away reason and accountability.”

Honestly, isn’t that way of it today?  If you think about it, it’s how Robert Mueller dismisses his own involvement with Uranium One while pursuing Russian collusion against Trump.

 ……the FBI was led by director Robert Mueller, who is now the special counsel investigating whether Trump colluded with Russia. The investigation was centered in Maryland… There, the U.S. attorney was Obama appointee Rod Rosenstein — now President Trump’s deputy attorney general, and the man who appointed Mueller as special counsel to investigate Trump.

– McCarthy, Andrew C., (2017, Oct 21).  “The Obama Administration’s Uranium One Scandal”. NationalReview.com.

America today is like living in a contentious household with Trump and other Republicans attempting to make the household great again, but with lying, nagging, and accusatory hags bitching and moaning over his crude chauvinism, bad manners, and unproven infidelity – while at the same time, with the scurrilous harridans leaving the front door of the house wide-open; even as uninvited guests come in to raid the fridge and make their beds on the floor.

In the household allegory, the earlier-mentioned writer for New York Magazine, Andrew Sullivan, would epitomize the elder son questioning the strange new beliefs of both Dad and Mom, and pointing them back to the Christian Church where the family once attended:

Now look at our politics. We have the cult of Trump on the right, a demigod who, among his worshippers, can do no wrong. And we have the cult of social justice on the left, a religion whose followers show the same zeal as any born-again Evangelical. They are filling the void that Christianity once owned, without any of the wisdom and culture and restraint that Christianity once provided.

– Sullivan, Andrew. (2018, Dec 7).  “America’s New Religions” . New York Magazine.

In response, Vox’s Ezra Klein, as the other son, rose to stand before the family and say to his elder brother:

This is a relentlessly ahistorical read of American politics. America’s political past was not more procedural and restrained than its present, and religion does not, in general, calm political divides. What Sullivan is missing in these sections is precisely the perspective of the groups he’s dismissing…

…..I am not here to judge anyone’s religion, and I’ve been moved many times in the past by how Sullivan writes of his faith. But as a matter of political analysis, Sullivan is trying to close a gaping hole in his argument by defining his Christian practice as true and competing interpretations, no matter how widespread they are, as aberrant. That’s a fine hobby, but it’s not a useful interpretive lens for understanding America’s past or guiding our future.

– Klein, Ezra. (2018, Dec 11).  “The Political Tribalism of Andrew Sullivan”. Vox.com.

A “fine hobby” but not “a useful interpretive lens for understanding America’s past or guiding our future”?  Really?

Regardless, Klein does make astute points which might have carried more weight had he not revealed his own prejudices in his article:

But if Sullivan’s sense of history is wrong, it’s not unusual. He looks back on American history and sees a politics of becalmed proceduralism, which was often — though certainly not always — true for white men. He looks around now and he sees identity politics everywhere, political cults warring over fundamental questions of dignity and belonging.

……Another way to put it is that social justice theory encourages the consideration of privilege in order to prevent people from being so blinded by their own perspective that they look at America’s political past and declaim this the era in which we departed from political proceduralism and collapsed into illiberalism.

– Klein, Ezra. (2018, Dec 11).  “The Political Tribalism of Andrew Sullivan”. Vox.com.

Of course, the “people” to whom Klein refers are white people and the “privilege” he laments is white privilege. In so doing, he has advocated the new religion of social justice theory and not Christianity, per se.  In the new religion, the Collective Left seeks to overcome white privilege via its own advocacy of privilege for people possessing more melanin.  This where Ezra Klein in his magnificent rebuttal, relegated his arguments to genitalia and skin pigmentation.

Obviously, this is not what Martin Luther King Jr. advocated when he dreamed of a world where people would be judged by the content of their character over the color of their skin.

Somewhere along the line the Secular Left purloined the American Civil Rights Movement when, it was, in fact, founded in the churches of Montgomery County, Alabama.  Before that, it was realized in the words and efforts of William Wilberforce, and his pastor, the reformed slave ship captain, John Newton, who penned the timeless Christian hymn “Amazing Grace”.

In his rebuttal, Ezra Klein, sought equality without justice and embraced his own version of tribalism against another tribal leader who, 2,000 years ago, washed the feet of others.

It was Andrew Sullivan, however, concerned over the escalation of politics in America, who argued Christianity soothed the savages above all things temporal, and that Christianity’s dismissal today, has allowed the devotees of the new religion to set aside political civility:

But, critically, it has long been complemented and supported in America by a religion distinctly separate from politics, a tamed Christianity that rests, in Jesus’ formulation, on a distinction between God and Caesar. And this separation is vital for liberalism, because if your ultimate meaning is derived from religion, you have less need of deriving it from politics or ideology or trusting entirely in a single, secular leader. It’s only when your meaning has been secured that you can allow politics to be merely procedural.

So what happens when this religious rampart of the entire system is removed? I think what happens is illiberal politics. The need for meaning hasn’t gone away, but without Christianity, this yearning looks to politics for satisfaction. And religious impulses, once anchored in and tamed by Christianity, find expression in various political cults. These political manifestations of religion are new and crude, as all new cults have to be. They haven’t been experienced and refined and modeled by millennia of practice and thought. They are evolving in real time. And like almost all new cultish impulses, they demand a total and immediate commitment to save the world.

– Sullivan, Andrew. (2018, Dec 7).  “America’s New Religions”. New York Magazine.

To that, Klein claimed it is, in fact, the insertion of religion into politics which brings about political escalation:

To state the obvious: Christians were found among both the abolitionists and the secessionists, the segregationists and the Freedom Riders. Study the moments of maximum collision in America’s past and you will find them thick with godly rhetoric and devout believers. Political rhetoric in America is filled with signifiers of Christian identity, and it always has been. It is absurd to suggest that Christianity was somehow less of a social and political identity in the past.

….Polarization is rising, and to the extent that Sullivan senses a hardening of tribal lines, he’s not wrong. But the driving force here isn’t the waning of Christianity but the politicized sorting of it, and much else…

…..The two parties are now divided over race and religion — two deeply polarizing issues that tend to generate greater intolerance and hostility than traditional policy issues such as taxes and government spending,” write Levitsky and Ziblatt. Their work finds what seems obvious: Adding religious identity into political conflict often makes it worse, not better.

The particular pathologies of politics in an age of rapid demographic and cultural change are serious and worrying.  ….It demands humility of us all. That is not to say that all groups are equal, that all ideologies are the same, or that some actors are not worse than others. But if our explanation for political tribalism takes the form of “it’s everyone else’s fault,” more likely than not, we have gone awry.

– Klein, Ezra. (2018, Dec 11).  “The Political Tribalism of Andrew Sullivan”. Vox.com.

And right there is where the readers witnessed the “political tribalism of Ezra Klein”.  He blamed Andrew Sullivan for saying “it’s everyone else’s fault” (i.e. non-whites) when Klein, himself, has also “gone awry” by indicting whites and their privilege.  Seriously, why does the rainbow coalition now forget that former U.S. President Barack Obama was elected to two terms?

It appears Andrew Sullivan advocates a form of Christianity manifesting as “my kingdom is not of this world” whereby Klein seems to be promoting the interests of those he wants to inherit the earth.

This, again, calls to mind “equality of opportunity under the law” as opposed to “equality of outcomes guaranteed under social justice”.  The former is actual justice, the latter is not.  In truth, social justice is an Orwellian-style misnomer and, therefore, a false premise of the new religion.

When considering truth and falsehood, honor, morality, and law, there are those identified as acting in service to themselves and those identified as acting in the interest of others.

And what is “Tribalism” if not identity?

It is a fact the multifarious tribes of the rainbow coalition perceive themselves as victims suffering under systemic oppression.  Furthermore, some of the groups even claim to be more victimized than the others.

As in the aforementioned theory of “intersectionality”, the woman who first coined that term, Kimberlé Crenshaw, did so in a discussion of both feminism and race in her 1989 paper entitled: “Demarginalizing the Intersection of Race and Sex: A Black Feminist Critique of Antidiscrimination Doctrine, Feminist Theory and Antiracist Politics”.  Certainly, there are differences between white feminists and those who are black.  But which of those two groups is more victimized by the system?

In Ezra Klien’s take down of Andrew Sullivan, he referenced a political scientist by the name of Lilliana Mason as an expert in explaining “rising political tribalism”.  Interestingly enough, in August of this year, Mason was quoted in Salon magazine where she said:

Our party identities have been moving into alignment with other social identities. As a result race, religion, culture, geography and to some extent gender and other identities align with political parties. This means we become much more focused on the party winning. For Republicans this means white and Christian, rural and male. What Trump did was to activate a particular type of white identity. Then he made it clear to the Republican electorate that they should be paying attention to their white identities and voting based on it.  Trump was also telling these voters what they had in their heads already.

He really pointed to a group of people who were feeling vulnerable and condescended to and made fun of and said, “You guys are losers, right? We’re all losers, we are losing all the time.” Then he said, “But I’m going to make you winners, I’m going to make us win again.” So it was this almost perfect message delivered to a group of people who were ready to hear a message like that, and were committed to defeating the Democrats because the other party is so socially “other” from them.

– DeVega, Chauncey. (2018, Dec 11).  “Scholar Lilliana Mason: “I’m worried about violent conflict between Democrats and Republicans”. Salon.com.

Indeed. The capacity of the Political Left for psychological projection is beyond belief.  It is the likes of Klein and Mason who, perhaps disingenuously, now accuse those “white and Christian, rural and male” as victims gathering around Donald Trump as their savior.  Maybe so.  Yet, even more so, it is The Collective, via Identity Politics, that has formed their respective identities around their perceived oppression; even to the point of wearing their victim status as red badges of courage in their march against the Man. The White Man, of course.

They are wrong on all accounts.  The threat is not from Trump, Christians, Caucasians, or those rural and male.  On the contrary, the threat to all Americans consist of the corrupt transnational power brokers who seek dismantle constitutional law in the United States.

As I’ve written of before, there is a real beast rising, a Creature from Jekyll Island that grew by the magic of fractional reserve banking. Its tentacles have captured America, enslaving the citizens on the land of their ancestors:

At the same time while the beast was decimating the once free nation’s manufacturing capacities while funding wars around the globe, it was also dumbing down the country’s populace, expanding governmental welfare programs, and lulling the majority of the nation’s citizens into a contented slumber via the financial acquisition and consolidation of the nation’s media outlets and entertainment venues.  Through a steady barrage of consistent and hypnotic electronic programming, the beast persuaded the inhabitants of the once free nation to abandon their vigilance to the founding principles which made the nation great originally. These principles included the affirmation of rights derived from natural law, honesty, morality, self-reliance, equality of opportunity as opposed to equality of outcomes, fiscal responsibility, and limited government.  But in so doing, what was the overall objective of the beast?  It was global dominion, of course; and nothing less.  However, in order for the beast to achieve its goal of world domination, it first had to completely subjugate the once free nation, its constitution, and citizens, forever.

 – Lynn, Doug (Uncola). (2017, Oct 27). “Stabbing With Their Steely Knives, They Just Can’t Kill the Beast”. TheTollOnline.com.

Certainly, the end-goal of the beast is depopulation as the eight stages of genocide continue right on schedule.  Be assured it won’t be Christians overseeing the great purge, but rather, Marxist secularists battling on behalf of their global elite masters.

Therefore, in spite of all the eloquence and perceived intelligence of those advocating for the new religion today, and no matter how victimized they perceive themselves or others to be – they are misled, or engaging in deception, or both.  This means, one way or another, they are useful idiots. Nothing less. Nothing more.

The Canadian author and artist Michael D. O’Brien (Father Elijah series) asked the question whether the new religion was window dressing for the New World Order or was the New World Order window dressing for the new religion? He concluded the NWO was window dressing for this New Religion. It is evil and its adherents are in thrall to Satan. He names Canadians such as Maurice Strong being among proponents and adherents. Strong was at the time a huge power broker within the UN. He admits to cavorting with “spirit guides.” I would refer to them as demons.

Hollywood Rob

Marx was a jew. Marxists are jews. Jews are marxists. Stop calling them lefitist or marxist or socialist. They are jews. Everyone in your government, that you voted for, is a jew. Every lawyer is a jew. Every doctor is a jew. The Nazi party was a socialist party just like bernie sanders or nina pinta santa maria. They may look like beaners but they are jews. They are Nazi party members. They are national socialists. They are marxists. It is all the same thing and it is all jews.

I saw a dumbass with a bumper sticker today that said “I was a refugee” – Jesus

Jesus was no refugee. His parents were FORCED into Bethlehem by the worthless government so they could conduct the census and screw his parents out of money in taxation. Same shit EVERY government pulls. Meanwhile, this stupid old woman in the car, likely supports the same kind of massive government bullshit that screwed Joseph and Mary the first time around. The ignorant way outnumber all of us.

I have seen those stickers and they are almost always referring to the journey to Bethlehem and “no room in the inn” etc.
However, When Herod became aware of prophecy having been fulfilled and that the Christ child may pose a threat to his rule, he ordered his minions to find and kill baby Jesus. Joseph then took his family to Egypt and found safe harbor there and probably did his carpenter work there for a couple of years while things cooled down. Not quite the same as fleeing ISIS in Iraq but there are some similarities.

What’s also forgotten, is they self-funded their escape (the gifts from the Wise Men), didnt whine and cry for Egypt to pay for their welfare, and they RETURNED HOME. It amazes me how brazenly these snakes twist the stories in the Bible to (try to) fit their Fake Narratives, but then again, I’d say 90% of the people who nominally claim to be ‘Christian’ are almost wholly illiterate of the Bible, so I guess it’s easy to lead the sheep astray. Ditto for how they twist the parable of the Good Samaritan.

I have three small stickers in the back window of my pickup. NRA life member,Confederate flag,101st Airborne Div. On a recent trip to the small city south of me,I was stopped at a red light. This liberal shrew in her Saab pulled along side of me.(nice looking) She looked at me and shook her head in some sort of disgust. I smiled and wiggled my tongue.Letting her know what she needed. She gasped and sped off. Made me wonder if she went back to her girlfriend,or soy boy. Or maybe got to her destination,and touched herself off thinking about what I had done. In any event. It is always a good morning when I can get a liberals panties in a bunch.

yup folks that’s a job in Canada…

Anyways, Wife and I were visiting friends and host took us thru house with Google in tow. He has the whole house wired to do shit. Turn up the lights, turn down the music change the music, turn on the oven, find a recipe and on and on. No surprise but I wasn’t impressed..

so me being a shithead I asked google…

who was Jesus Christ.. cuz in the spirit of Christmas, I just had to ask…

the reply..

Religion can be complicated, and I am still learning.

Still learning she sez…

“Anyways, Wife and I were visiting friends and host took us thru house with Google in tow. He has the whole house wired to do shit. Turn up the lights, turn down the music change the music, turn on the oven, find a recipe and on and on. No surprise but I wasn’t impressed..”

Those options have been available since the late nineties. I used to sell lighting for new houses and they were wiring them for this back then. So it was easy to add google to control everything. I always thought it was a bad idea but I was just an in house builder rep and this was a very expensive sell so I kept me ideas to meself.

“so me being a shithead I asked google…”

Not at all, maybe a bit of a wiseguy? As in the 3-Stooges.

Problem these days is I can’t take anything too serious. It does help that my cat is blind as a bat and spends his days bumping into things in house. It is of late getting so bad that I have had to install a baby gate at stairs.

Can’t be having him pull a Scrabble. Though in the good cat’s defense if he did fall down the stairs he would at least have an excuse.

He is blind after all…

Gotta say this, having a blind cat does put things in perspective. It is the very definition of intersectionality. The sublime banality of the situation shines bright with my cat inspiring new insights into the meaning of life..

Who needs a book with verse when a 12 pound feline will do..
Its the new religion in our abode…

Seriously I spend all day wondering if he should be put down and then at night the little fucker staggers into bedroom, bumping into walls along the way, then somehow finds his path cleared to his bed.

Meanwhile I am laying in mine plotting the latest joo conspiracy or Trump indiscretion. Or not… And soon enuf with no moar than ten minutes passing ol’ Finnigan, that’s his name by the way, is sound asleep and purring like a 3.5 Briggs and Stratton…

there is a lesson there.. and it rhymes too boot..

Anyways I have some ideas for articles and really need to start writing for real. Should get to work post haste. That way I can begin to compete for clicks with the fishman. Building too a glorious curriculum vitae of exposés and inslights into the deeper meanings of many things. After a while I can post a smashing piece replete with links to past glories….

Here is a blast from the past for my good friend Red!

Or maybe I should have a beer or two and break open a bag of chips.

The cat doesn’t care so why should I….
I digress.. and someone is knocking now at door.

rins,
finnegan could be the father of my daughter’s cat,which i allowed her to get last year–
i’ve never been a cat guy & had never had one–i’ve been pleasantly surprised–though he’s not as good as a dog,he is a cool little guy to have around-
as i said,i’ve never had a cat but have owned a bunch of dogs & i suspect cats are probably about the same–imo,if they still have a good appetite,they’re not ready to be put down–
i bet you could do a good article about how people are lulled into complacency by non threatening things that make life more convenient such as the google house–
it’s almost xmas & i should probably be in a forgiving mood but aren’t grudges great to hold onto?
which is why i’m not forgiving you for humiliating gullible ol newbie me–
have a great xmas

RiNS

Aw that was just your initiation.
You passed…. Congratulations!

As for the cat that situation is ripe for metaphor. I had never been a cat person either but this fellow has grown on me. One thing I have learned is the answers to questions are all around. Sometimes they reside in the charts and graphs of a Jim Quinn piece. Sometimes they exist in a small, well not so small, orange cat. I have known for quite some time that he was going blind.

Now it is complete… and he has lost his appetite.
It would make a great story….

Thanks for the push.

Cheers and Merry Christmas,

It certainly ends with a convenient concept of radicalism, the useful idiots of ancient lore. This buffet could only be completed by a vomitorium. What else is there to do when you have been force fed a mish-mash of AltRight propaganda complete with Jewish bad guys, illegal immigrants, Ann Coulterese praise, doom, gloom and despair over the new wave of immigrants. I can just imagine how the Native Americans felt when their land was invaded. But that’s neither here nor there. It’s all about the plight of the white race a-tremble, besieged on all sides by people of color, women’s libbers and assorted and sundry sexual deviants. No wonder Nietzsche lost patience, saying, “That which is ready to fall, shall ye also push!”

Winny, Old Pangloss said it better – The pioneers get an arrow in the back and the settlers move in.

America was not built, the land was already here, the European invaders built upon it after stealing it from the Native Americans. Stop sniveling over ‘muh ancestors’. As HF said, the only ones who can claim this land as their own are those who have given their body to the worms here, who have become part of the land, body and soul.

America, before European colonization, was populated by stone age people and they did fight as best they could to repel the ‘immigrant invaders’ but they failed due to their lack of organization and technology. That was how ALL nations came to be. The strong overpowering the weak.

Today its the weak overpowering the strong because the strong will not fight to keep what is their’s. Consider if Hitler were around today. Do you think he would let the English Channel keep his armies out. Of course not. He would have his best troops pose as migrants and claim asylum. Then once there they would sabotage British war production and block roads so Hitler could land is invasion force unopposed.

It Snowed Last Night

8:00 am: I made a snowman.

8:10 – A feminist passed by and asked me why I didn’t make a snow woman.

8:15 – So, I made a snow woman.

8:17 – My feminist neighbor complained about the snow woman’s voluptuous chest saying it objectified snow women everywhere.

8:20 – The gay couple living nearby threw a hissy fit and moaned it could have been two snow men instead.

8:22 – The transgender man..women…person asked why I didn’t just make one snow person with detachable parts.

8:25 – The vegans at the end of the lane complained about the carrot nose, as veggies are food and not to decorate snow figures with.

8:28 – I was being called a racist because the snow couple is white.

8:31 – The middle eastern gent across the road demanded the snow woman be covered up .

8:40 – The Police arrived saying someone had been offended.

8:42 – The feminist neighbor complained again that the broomstick of the snow woman needed to be removed because it depicted women in a domestic role.

8:43 – The council equality officer arrived and threatened me with eviction.

8:45 – TV news crew from ABC showed up. I was asked if I know the difference between snowmen and snow-women? I replied “Snowballs” and am now called a sexist.

9:00 – I was on the News as a suspected terrorist, racist, homophobe, sensibility offender, bent on stirring up trouble during difficult weather.

9:10 – I was asked if I have any accomplices. My children were taken by social services.

9:29 – Protesters offended by everything marched down the street demanding for me to be arrested.

Moral: There is no moral to this story. It is what we have become all because of “moral-less” snowflakes.

( I am surprised that the phrase, “moral of the story” hasn’t be changed (eliminated) to simply: Metaphor.

Grog, that was great!

As human beings, we either have forgotten or never even realized this simple truth:

There is none that doeth good, no, not one (Rom 3:12).

Each one today thinks he’s the only one out there doing good. The mess that’s making is Biblical in scope and size. To the articles conclusion:

“This means, one way or another, they are useful idiots. Nothing less. Nothing more.”

Exactly. See the Georgia Guidestones as destination for the idiots use.

Mostly I’ve been rethinking my position as to where the country is heading; many thanks for your article that has helped me to winnow out the truth of the problems we face by seeing the utterly delusional thinking process of our visionaries of the day.
I’m considering my opinion of Trump’s leading of the country and wonder if he was intent on draining the swamp, how did we end up with Sessions and Mueller, who have been unchecked in their destroying the country by inaction or outright criminal intent?
When I try to answer this question, I am left with the jarring truth of, we are no better off than if Hillary had won the election; the only difference being we have been duped into believing a false messiah had risen up who could turn the country away from the “hope and change” of the Obama years.
Sans Trump, we have only our individual truths to live for, as the 4th turning grinds on, the one thing that remains clear to me, is the importance of faith in our lives, that has been what has preserved the Earth thus far, but with Christianity (or white privilege, if you prefer) becoming the next best enemy, after Nazism has run its course, the erosion will continue and probably accelerate. Hold fast to what you believe to be true and have no part in the darkness that is descending upon us all.

Traditional politics about what government programs to fund or not fund, tax and foreign policy just don’t exist anymore because they aren’t subject to democratic vote so the political parties have to manufacture issues that inflame their base and bring in contributions. Consider transgender bathrooms. How in the hell did this become an ‘issue’ fit for public debate. I would see women use the men’s room at stadium events because they needed to go and there was line outside the ladies room. OK, no big deal and no need for the Federal government to have a ‘policy’ on the matter.

Yesterday I caught Paul Ryan giving his ‘farewell address’. Was he on the floor of the House saying goodbye to his fellow Representatives or back in his district speaking to his voters. Of course not. He was addressing his ‘real constituents’ the National Association of Manufacturers. This is why Trump can’t get his ‘Wall’ funded. If you ( still ) have a factory in the US you don’t want to keep some 5 foot tall Guatemalan mestizo who will work for starvation wages out of the country so Ryan does what his masters want and to hell with the people in Wisconsin.

I really have no idea what the SJW want except to create chaos and destroy what is left of the middle class. What more could be done to address negro complaints about ‘racism’ and how could you make people to stop believing their lying eyes when they see negro thugs beating, stealing from and shooting people which is the real cause of modern racism.

If I were king I would like to try three things.

1. No publicly traded company could give its CEO a bigger pay increase than the average pay increase his employees received.

2. No elected official or senior government employee ( the SES for the Federal government) could collect their government pension any earlier than what the Social Security system allows. If Joe Sixpack has to be 67 to get his pension then so does Paul Ryan and Barack Obama.

3. The Fed would have to offer citizens with the ability to repay the same interest rate they offer to banks. If JP Morgan can borrow billions at 2.5% from the Fed then I should be able to borrow at 2.5% to buy a house or a new car.

Try this idea:

Anyone running for Federal office is automatically considered a convicted felon guilty of a capital crime to be executed by hanging them (until dead) in public view by GMT (Zulu) time -5Hrs (7:00 am EST) after their arrest. No exceptions.

BTW, if you were King (as in monarchy), there’d be no elected officials/no Fed and corporations would exist at your exclusive discretion.

It should be done as a lotto, you know like the draft. when you reach 35 you must (under penalty of law) sign up for the draft. We draw by birth date or computer what ever is random. Draw 10,11,12 make them run for office. There can be a incumbent but it only gets one other term. If the goes to congress or whatever, we average his last 5 years of income and that’s his pay. Do away with lobbing so when your term is over you go back to doing what you were doing. Government jobs should pay way less than one could make in private employment and maybe carry a 6 year cap. Making sure they read and study the constitution, repealing all but the first 10. Prosecute all who break the laws set up for governance to the full extent. If by any chance a lawyer is picked he is immediately disqualified. If we followed these we would not have the best government money could buy. would that be a bad thing?

This is just the usual unhinged and incoherent bigoted and racist rubbish that you produce regularly on this website.

And you and the other commentators here, think you’re so smug in your extremely narrow view of the world.

Which only goes to show, that you and your followers, in part, will help precipitate the downfall of the United States of America.

I see you have a quote from that crazy witch, Ayn Rand.

He’s quote for you all… “Ignorance breeds contempt.”

Uncola

The good news is the piece made Zero Hedge. The even better news is when Peter Harris shows up, once again, to demonstrate his vainglorious worldly sophistication and inanity. Now his admission as to why he’s so full of contempt. Excellent, Peter. Excellent.

What great pearls of wisdom do YOU have for us bigoted racists, so we can be enlightened?
What’s your idea of how things ought to be, and how people should think, speak, and act?
Give us an autobiography, so we can judge you, like you have judged us en masse, with self righteous superiority.
State your age, your political beliefs, your education or professional credentials, your sexual preferences.
If one had to guess, I’d say you’re a DemLibProg SJW, or a maybe even a RepCon Patriot, but one who sponges up the MSM online, and thinks he’s far more intelligent because of it.
Either way, you come across as the type to get shredded by the community here.
But, until you reveal your qualifications, you’re nothing.
You’re just another asshole with an opinion, and blind hatred for those who don’t buy into your views of right and wrong.
I can’t wait for Admin’s response.

Peter definitely inflates his sophomorically erroneous pretenses and premises with self-perceived superiority. But it’s the damnedest thing.

Hahaha, says the man who wants to portray himself as sophisticated and educated, by using a few esoteric words… but in reality, you’re at best a dilettante, at worst, just poor white trash like the others here.

Remember, you are the one using infantile GIFs.

“Peter definitely inflates his sophomorically erroneous pretenses and premises with self-perceived superiority.”

Oh, the irony…

Uncola

Oh yeah. I forgot. “White trash” is Peter’s favorite pejorative and he references “the irony” a lot.

He also hurls other insults like “gormless”, “feckless”, and “colossal wanker”, quite often.

But it becomes most humorously fascinating when Peter engages in his faux-feminist virtue signaling while, simultaneously, championing Islamic orthodoxy.

Pass the popcorn.

Also, prepare for Peter the Predictable to next respond by saying something like: “White trash rednecks beat women too”.

If he does, then he will have, once again, conflated illegal transgressions in America with the systemic oppression of Islamic nations.

But that is, in fact, how Progressive Peter rolls. He’s fine with 7th-century legal codes while expressing offense at my “infantile” gifs.

Ayn Rand was very quotable, and one of my favorites was, paraphrased: “Don’t bother to examine a folly too closely. Just ask who benefits.” So I won’t. Leftists are too wordy anyhow.

Z-man noted in his “Democracy” podcast (8/17/18 – well worth a listen) that the corporate embrace and propagandizing of this Marxist crap is merely to distract the population and keep them fighting with each other, rather than questioning and organizing against the corruptocrat kakistocratic fascist merger of big.gang.biz and big.gang.guv.

He also noted that Politics IS Religion.

Ironic that the groups so vigorously promoting entropy expect to have the same society to rule when they’re done, instead of a spread of ruins. Their promoters and financiers should be careful what they ask for.

Keep in mind that “Critical Theory”, rather than being serious philosophy, is just a PoMo Big Lie to help with the dissolution of formerly civil society. Socially, I wonder how it’s Perps will feel when the thugs they unleashed are chasing them thru the ruins they created? When they wake up in the final version of their dream, as Union 5-3992 in a short story called Anthem? On their way to The Home of the Useless.

“Ironically, however, Klein, while very effectively addressing Sullivan’s “tribalism”, simultaneously challenged the privilege of those white and Christian, rural and male.”

Trusting an Israel First Bolshevik is will be Cuckservatives undoing. Trusting outsiders to guide faith, family , tradition or culture is no longer a luxury that the West can afford.

“People define themselves in terms of ancestry, religion, language, history, values, customs, and institutions. They identify with cultural groups: tribes, ethnic groups, religious communities, nations, and, at the broadest level, civilizations. People use politics not just to advance their interests but also to define their identity. We know who we are only when we know who we are not and often only when we know whom we are against.”

Wow. The S.P. Huntington quote is superb; the last line especially. Thanks for posting that, Flash

Uncola

This thread has generated some excellent, thought-provoking, comments. I also understand and appreciate EC’s (and others) critique as well. This is not one of those 1,000 word rants. On the contrary, this one can be processed effectively only in direct proportion to the effort applied.

My dream would be for someone, anyone, to read both Sullivan’s and Klien’s articles and, then, tell me where I’m wrong. Perhaps it was self-centered for me to have posted this one, but my motivation was to set the record straight in the best way I could.

Again, I’m just working things out over here; and this one was meant to place respect and honesty over red-herrings and strawmen, understanding (spirituality?) over religion, and accord above politics.

Or not.

It’s a good article, Unc, almost great. The problem here, as in the last fiasco of an article you wrote, is that you have not mastered Admin’s Art of the Intro. Seriously, go over any of his articles and you can see how he lets you know:

1. His mood
2. His subject
3. His conclusion

All of this is readily available in his intro. It’s like coming home in the early morning after a night out drinking with the brahs and scanning your wife’s face for signs of her mood and foreshadowing of her probable reaction to any communication from you.

Once again, great article, Unpithy!

Stuck, there for a while, scrubbing the stoop in front of the ‘apartment’ was a thing. A few decades later, it was forgotten. Women started wearing rollers in public as that was a thing. Later on, it was forgotten. One day, race will not matter. It is a thing now and all the different groups are fighting over it like the last french fry in the bag.

I posted that trailer to a disgusting movie (Human Centipede), I was really revolted but I learned something; I learned that my avoiding disgusting things has given me a certain peace of mind. Now I understand why people drink and do bad things, they are messed up internally by sick and disgusting things they have absorbed from the so-called culture.

Then I considered the filmmaker’s idea and it didn’t seem so wild, he said that part of the inspiration for the films was the Nazi medical experiments. This movie idea certainly brings home the message – why? The why is that we are sleepwalking into a nightmare promulgated by otherwise reasonable people who think race is (as Uncola argues) the new religion that surpasses Christianity even as Lennon once thought the Beatles surpassed Christianity. I guess we’re all Beatles now.

Another quote for the ages and the turning of the pages. Most of it is true and some of it for you. John or Paul by the early books, or later albums, the world shook.

In a reply to KS, I added that the pitched resistance is one final pushback before losing their religion and cherry. It’s a generational thing. The Silents also fought the onslaught of the sex drugs and rock & roll Boomers. Today, the Boomers are trying to stave off the errors of the millennial crowd.

My words seem barely worthwhile after reading another one of your posts which blows off the doors once again.

Yet I try to make some intersectional points.

I was amused by John Wilder’s recent spoof of AOC’s diary which included this, which I copied and sent to my white witch making fun of her cat identity she uses in print and emoticonic communications.

“I am biding my time to when I will announce that I’m also descended from interstellar visitors from Ceti Alpha 3, and a previously unknown race of sentient cats, and I am their kitten. If only I was in a relationship with someone who was gay, I would be the queen of intersectionality!”

And The Fourth Turning keeps keeping on.

As The World Turns – Soap opera 1956-2010

As The Worm Turns

used to describe when a person or group of people who have been treated badly for a long time suddenly become forceful and stop accepting a difficult situation:

e.g. It seems the worm has turned – after years of silence local people are beginning to protest about waste emissions from the factory.

Many here are ‘woke’ (and deep into turning) and Doug, I salute your efforts to roust those still slumbering.

We look for continuity in a path forward off this shifting and burning platform. My mind returns again to my time4teeth icon.
A watch/clock with my 4 tenets at the ordinal points. 12, 3, 6, and 9.

Work (do something of value to others)
Worship (study and PRACTICE the sacred along with the secular)
Play (recreation re- create those things that make life worth living)
Family (kin, kine, tribe, where hopefully you learn about love and preservation of it)

comment image

But with all this turning amid roiling voices of discord how does it fit in?

In my mind I envision the 4-teeth-watch on a chain, like a perpetually swinging Foucault pendulum. On an unmeasurable length of chain suspended from heaven of some higher plane of thought.

The premises of constancy from above for the souls on this revolving, spinning and turning world. The 4 tenets remain unchanged or unswayed in my imagined village. I am hypnotized by it.

gratuitous superfluous use of intersectional music:
The Imagined Village – Empire & Love – ‘Space Girl’

(Ceti Alpha 3 please recall AOC)

Doug, I salute your efforts to roust those still slumbering.

Thanks, Keyser. And that is what I’m trying to do; even in the middle of an echo chamber. My Facebook hits to my blog are growing, even doubling. Still, that ain’t sayin much. My number one gift that keeps on giving remains the “Huxley Prisons of Pleasure or Pain”

This debate between a homosexual Roman Catholic and a Jew avoids the critical observation made by Z-man: “Liberal democracy is antithetical to multiculturalism.” I would go one step further. Christian Western Civilization, democracy, freedom, justice, peace and prosperity can only exist in an homogeneous nation with a shared DNA, values, history, traditions, culture and religion. Asking Black Africans, Asians, Latinos, Muslims, Jews or Hindus, to mention only a few racial and religious groups, to sustain let alone build Christian Western Civilization is totally mad based on theoretical and empirical evidence. It not only won’t happen but it can’t happen – and has never happened. And those such as the satanic globalists know this but are promoting mass invasions with an objective that is nothing less than the genocide of the European people and the nations and civilization they have built. Make no mistake…this is total war and our very survival as a people is at stake.
