Robert Bronsdon (Hollywood Rob) June 2019
In your insular world you might see things spinning out of control. You might see the communists using their Rules for Radicals playbook taking the lead and you might even see them as winning. But there are people who are fighting back. There are people who a standing up to the purple haired harpies and they are finding victories too.
You probably are aware that all of the tech companies are in silicon valley, which is just south of San Francisco. You know, the San Francisco that has shit all over the streets in such abundance that they have to maintain an app to inform the residents of where the turds are. Well, the people who run these companies all live in the surrounding area and they are all liberals, if not downright communists.
They sit in their meeting rooms having meetings about how to skirt the rules. It is their job. They lie before congress, they lie to everyone, and then they go back to their glass and driftwood mansions and devise schemes within schemes to steal more money from people and more importantly, how to get the next communist president. As you recently saw, Hillary Clinton did her thesis on Saul Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals and Barack Obama taught Alinsky’s tactics at the University of Chicago and he used them in the field as a community organizer. By any rational measure, this makes them both communists. They have communist goals and they use communist methods and the one that I want to talk about here is how they plan on duping the merikans into voting for another communist in 2020.
I don’t think that it is going to work unless they find some shining prince of communism to enter the race on their behalf. Clearly Hillary, with her communist credentials, is far too damaged to be offered up again to the glare of the media spotlight. If not her, who do you see in the current batch of contenders? But, having said that they are not likely to succeed, does not mean that they are not going to do everything that they can to silence conservative voices. The communist tech companies, with their over 30% communist workforce, are focusing now on ensuring that nobody is able to present an alternative to the lies being distributed by their captive main stream media. This involves YouTube just now, but it will extend far beyoud that and if they think that a site has the potential to expose their lies, they will shut it down as they just did to ZeroHedge on Pinterest. Now I don’t think that ZeroHedge gets much traction on Pinterest, but if it works there why not on their service provider? Why not on their bank? Why not on the web host?
This is war. You see their tactics. You know what their objective are. Will you stand and fight?
So what does this fight entail Rob? Avoiding all Leftist tech companies? So basically it becomes difficult to participate in the online world. In this regard we have Amish leading the battle vs. leftist tech, but I don’t see this as a truly winning strategy. Alternate tech platforms for libertarians/Repubs? I would lean toward this myself, I hate doing anything to empower those I deem enemies of freedom. Thus, most of the tech monopolies. Put money into legal defense funds for conservatives? This may be a method as well since it seems the purging of anyone not at least superficially Leftists is happening in corporate America. Clearly this has been going on in entertainment, and the MSM for a long time now.
There are plenty of libertarian types that are techies, but I assume most just keep their head down at the companies the work for. Good luck being a public republican working in Seattle, or San Fran or one of the other tech hubs. The question is how long can we prop up a messed up industrial food/watering system for a massively growing population before it crumbles? We still see large growths of populations in warmer regions that often struggle with water tables. Under normal circumstances it wouldn’t be a problem, but add millions of illegals and chain immigrants within 5yrs and big trouble. I’m a fan of voting still, even if its just to slow down the commies. But I do agree that voting clearly isn’t enough, if the culture war is lost and if k-12 and “higher” ed is lost, which for the most part it has been, then you eventually just get idiocracy voters turning us into a 3rd world country. The owner class think they will keep their gated estates, maybe they are right, but I assume the Commie Celebs and such don’t expect their “equality” to mean they will live in 600 sqft apartments next to people that don’t speak english and struggle with TB.
Need a specific set of plans to combat this. Most people won’t do them. But an effective way to fight is nail them in the pocketbook. Any commercial enterprise that partakes in this deception, hate and lying needs to be boycotted. When Wall Street sees declining sales, the Board boots the SJWs. Even in the cases of super majority voting stock, economic losses drive layoffs, which will force middle management to help stop the threats to their own livelihoods. Empty stomachs have a way of focusing people. Do it now, and tell your friends to make choices
Meatballs is up and running but beware Yumbo is an ever present danger.
The only way we are going to win this ” War ” in the end is to do the shit that will take out them and their part of the country. The only thing I see is taking out the Electric grid on the west coast. Next step is real blood shed. We are going to have to take away their creature comforts And then make them bleed . I hate the thought of it but it’s the only thing I can see that will work. Remember ,they hate us and they and the leftist progressives on the east coast own almost everything because they control the banking system. They are coming after our guns. This is when the shit will hit the fan. They have already said when they get the white house back this is their plan. At this I don’t see how real war is avoidable.
To Meatball and to all. Remember situation awareness is your friend.Make a habit of it. Stay alert ,stay alive. Got to drive for a while today so I hope everyone has a great day.
OK, perhaps I don’t think that BB’s approach should be the first step in the process, but all three of you are asking the right question. What do we do? Well, the first thing to do is to band together. You are all conservatives and as such are independent and self sufficient types of people. Creating black blocks is not in your nature as it is in the nature of the rabid leftists. They do it naturally, we do it with some difficulty. But the only real strength is in numbers so you have to join with your like minded friends and collect more of them. Make politics something that everyone talks about. I did that very thing with a group of old farts at our retiree’s lunch just yesterday and at a table in Glendale California you found four people exchanging views on politics. And after a while that ended with a guilty laugh. But we did it.
If you can’t find anybody who agrees with you then it is on you to convince people around you that communism sucks. I live in a sea of communists. There are targets of opportunity around me every day all day long. I never miss the opportunity to confront them about the results of their beliefs. I don’t do it with malice and I don’t argue with them. I stay as calm as I can and I try to walk the conversation into a place where they simply can’t deny that communism, which is the logical conclusion of socialism, has always ending in death. That usually gets them thinking at least. One of them has now come back to the table and he doesn’t talk about communist ideals any more. But he does talk to me.
Another thing that you can do is educate yourself so that your arguments will be persuasive. I offer up that you can support people who are taking a stand and that doesn’t just mean giving them money, but that doesn’t hurt. Watching conservative people on Youtube can be difficult. Some of them tend to lack focus and many don’t offer any concrete information of value. There is a place for them and you might enjoy the support of their agreement with your ideals, but they don’t usually have any concrete suggestions. But just in watching you increase their view count. View counts are money to most of them. I don’t like to subscribe to Youtube channels and I don’t want to get notifications. I like to search for the videos that I find informative on my own. But you can subscribe and that helps them too. It puts money into their pockets.
I will share some of my favorites, but you can offer yours as well. Remember, just viewing the videos helps the creators.
Louder with Crowder – comedy high energy
Tim Pool – news straight out Frequently reading news articles and commenting
Rubin Report – long form interviews with a depth of explanation that is lacking in MSM
Joe Rogan – The GRE does clips so you don’t have to watch the full interview
You might like others. Tell us who you watch regularly. There are several conservative women who don’t hold back. Lauren Southern has turned to producing documentaries but there are several others that I can’t remember just now. You might like Stephan Molyneux, I find him too pedantic. You might like Jimmy Dore. It doesn’t matter. Just support these people with views so they can continue to do what they are doing.
And then finally, I would offer up the gun owners of New Zealand. The communist leadership attempted to ban all firearms and offered a buyback. Nobody gave them any guns. That took balls. Would you find it within you to stand before the might of the nation and say no? The people in New Jersey seemed to stand up to the communists who run that state, and they refused to turn in their high capacity magazines. What does the communist in a position of power do when faced with the simple word “NO?” They fold, but they don’t stop. They sneak off to try again. They don’t stop being communists and you can’t kill them so you have to realize that this fight is forever. There will always be new communists reaching adulthood. There will always be that pull to equality of outcome because just as aspiration to a better life is a goad to succeed, it is also a source of envy. You can’t change human nature, but you can change human minds…but you have to do it one at a time until you reach the point where the changing develops a force of it’s own.
Remember this. Every single ism in this world started as an idea in one person’s mind.
I agree in principle. I happen to live in a state where 26% of the workforce is foreign. Do you understand how that fact, in and of itself denies citizens the opportunity to exercise their rights to dissent, to boycott to withdraw their patronage? Even with prohibitions on foreign citizens in management, do you think that isn’t the way many Woke Capitalists operate? So many Americans are suffering so much, they cannot afford the luxury of paying more, or going without.
What a fucking load of shit. From the very first words the author is full of shit.
From the very first words this dickhead insults the reader. Insular: “
ignorant of or uninterested in cultures, ideas, or peoples outside one’s own experience.“
This is not the first time this asshat opens with a salvo suggesting TBP readers are idiots.
I now see the problem several TBPers have with this guy – he is a fucking moron.
LLPOH, yesterday was one for the record books. The normally sedate (but not sedated) Yokes lost his composure and beat the crap out of HR. Still, Hillary Bronson is hard of learning. Today, BB warns him that YoBo is an ever present danger. HR misses the warning. This fool is not salvageable even for spare parts.
Yes, and now we see that pooh can’t add anything useful to the conversation. He can’t read. He can’t understand. And he can’t contribute. All he has to offer is slanders and foul language. Well, so be it. Pooh and the beaner can join maggie and yo in their hatred. You now know how they work. See their strategies in full bloom.
Even as they taste the sting of defeat they band together in their black block to hurl insults and declare victory. These people, the very people that you thought were your friends, are not only the enemy of you, but the enemy of everything that you hold dear.
Don’t be fooled by their mealy mouthed whimpering about horrible diseases. It is designed to lull you into a sense of belonging to their cult. Don’t be fooled by their cry about climate change or chem trails or any of the other moronic idiocies that they concoct to turn you from your path. If you can’t stand up to a fascist slut on a silly little blog with almost no followers, how do you expect to be able to stand up to them when they are marching in the street with baseball bats and bike locks. Make your choice. Take your stand.
You are punch drunk and don’t know what you are writing. Please seek medical care.

That was great!
HR – you do not have the brains God gave a gnat. Your opening words were “In your insular world you might see things spinning out of control.” You insulted every reader with that opening, directly saying that we are “ignorant of or uninterested in cultures, ideas, or peoples outside one’s own experience.”
That is not the first time you have posted such shit. You live in a fucking shithole, and have the gall to tell us we are uninterested, ignorant, etc.
Here is an idea – what say you go fuck yourself? You are an ignorant, arrogant blowhard, and have assumed the mantle of village idiot.
You sure are taking advantage of this blog. Funny, given how you are disparaging it. Fucking ingrate.
Pooh you show astounding ignorance. I am disparaging people who infest this blog with communist ideologies. You are too stupid to see it, and I can’t fault you for that, but it is right in your face if you but look. Now that it has been pointed out to you in no uncertain terms, you must choose to continue to support the antifa trolls or to step into the light. Insults about brains or gods or gnats are of no consequence. Simply make a choice.
You post this shit, then deny it. What the fuck? What say you do not use words of which you do not know the meaning? I know that will limit you to three letters a word, max, but at least you will not open by saying that your readers live in an insular world.
Stop being an asshole. You are stinking up the place, for an extended time now. You are not adding value.
Are you sure that you have written an actual sentence there? I deny nothing. I post against your communist ideology. You, rather than defending your communist ideology resort to insults and name calling. You are the asshole and you know it. You are the one being forced to withdraw. It is you that we fight. It is you who will be driven from the field.
No more than you are. Go take your meds and calm down.
Rob’s dementia exhibits in several ways. He denies he has a problem and accuses everybody of being against him. He and his invisible army will soon overcome the so-called trolls who oppose his views. They are all ungodly communists. I haven’t heard from this gang of Rob supporters except for Donkey Nuts, mygirl and a smattering of sock puppets.
Yes he is arrogant and condescending. I don’t engage him or read his stuff usually.
It’s all about the pocketbooks; theirs and ours.
We will fight back when our pocketbooks are empty, but their pocketbooks are always being filled with money from mostly unknown sources. Witness CNN and the social platforms that teetered on huge losses of revenue, but somehow are still thriving today.
And speaking of social networks, they are the only ones fighting to remove our liberties one block at a time. Our response, waving our fist at the mighty Red Baron who continues to wage their war against us with only tweets from the president saying, “hey, don’t do that” to stand in their way.
We are ready to fight, the objectives are before us, but we are told to wait until the report comes out, or, wait for 2020; what happens if the leadership we have invested our future in is in lock step with our adversary, putting out orders of delaying the revolution until our position becomes so weak, we have nothing to fight with.
Yes, we have the hardware, but if we are a demoralized army, we become the vanquished even though we may be sitting on tons of lead.
You are asking the right questions, it’s just that there is no viable option we have at present to fight back. We will fight when we have nothing to lose, but the other side realizes that and as long as they can keep the appearance of the economy chugging along, we will sit and wait for our demise.
Not Sure. This is exactly right. But think back to Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals. You are stronger than you know. They are weaker than you think. They slime their way into every crack they can find to sow dissent and you don’t see them coming. And they never stop coming. They never give up so you can never give up. Maybe I don’t have any really good suggestions for how to take the fight to them. Maybe you can’t think of any either. That doesn’t mean that we won’t come up with something useful together. We aren’t stupid. We aren’t NPCs like they are. But they are focused and we are not. So step one, in my mind, is to get focused. Go after the fascist/communist infiltrators and ignore their filth and their mewling degradation and stand up to them. Call them out. Expose them for what they are.
There are not many of them but their impact can not be allowed to continue. To accept their intrusion is to accept your own fate. It is we who allow this to happen. It is they who seek our doom.
They slime their way into every crack they can find to sow dissent and you don’t see them coming. And they never stop coming. – HR
I’ll be right back, I gotta go smoke a cigarette.
See what I mean. When pushed even a little bit they disappear into a cloud of smoke. EC thinks that he is winning. He is proud of his foul language and his immature name calling. Not once has he added a cogent thought to the conversation. His raison d’etra is to stop you from standing up and coming together. His job, which he might even get paid to do, is to keep you from standing against the communists.
Your job is to resist him.
Those were your words, HR. I wondered at your mental state but just made a light joke of it. I’ve had plenty of cogent thoughts. I’m a stable genius compared to your moronic volatility.
Of course you are EC. (pats on head) Now go out behind your mothers garage and weed yourself back up for the daily task of trolling TBP. If you can’t stand the heat, perhaps you should ask for another assignment.
Oh and I realize that you are retarded so I will explain the clip. You are Voldemort. Get it. Get it. You loose in the end. We stand and fight against you and you loose.
EC is far from retarded.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Oh do you have any proof of that?
At least I know that 1+1+1 does not equal 1.
Truly profound. See folks. Trolls are even bad at maffs. Now watch. He won’t read the entire comment and will say that I think that 1+1+1 does equal 1. Just watch. It’s bound to happen and it will be funny as hell.
define “far”..
Thanks, Iska. I want you to know if somebody starts dicking with you, I’m Larry H. Parker.
You loose in the end? You loose? You saying he has the shits?
I keep telling you – stick to three letters or less. Those big words are beyond your ken.
Ouch pooh, that one really hurt. So I double bounced on the o key. I guess that makes you the superior person. Perhaps this is the extent of your useful contribution, but it is welcome none the less. I really don’t care if you attack me. I really can’t be hurt and I don’t see how any of your trolling can affect me in any way. What I have done is to expose your troll factory and you are butthurt about it. The more you rail, the more happy I am. The closer I come to my goal. You yourself are the lube in your own ass. It is your reputation that is dying. Not mine. If you wish to continue, by all means have a great time. You only reinforce my point with each meaningless post.
HR replies to his own comment.
You do find some good ones. I was looking for the pet cemetery kid saying “I wanna play”…
Could only find the ending.
I was refering to you by your real name. I know that you have not been paying much attention and btw, that’s a fine gif, but you really should have realized that I was Hollywood Rob replying to Rob in Novia Scotia.
I just had to do it… ?
It is my opinion the DNC has not put forth their “real” candidate yet. The motley crew of degenerates before us now, each with a pet policy is recon by fire, testing the waters, or trying to avoid jail.
After review they will unveil their “real” candidate late in the process, another CIA science project without history, good looking, articulate, confident and satisfying the predetermined zietgiest they are now exploring/creating.
Even Obama was a senator and keynote speaker at the 2004 democrat convention. There is no secret candidate to be unveiled. These 23-24 boobs are all they got. I think Biden will fade. Read the comments on his twitter feed. A lot of Dems hate him. Bernie’s too old and Warren is too shrill and weird. Dems aren’t going to nominate the mayor of South Bend, Indiana. Kamala Harris is the second choice for a lot of Iowa Dems, and when they get into a caucus, that matters. If Harris can come in first or second in Iowa and in the top three in NH, it’ll be on to SC where black primary voters could hand her the win. Then on to California. She just needs to stop being so boring and using bland talk like “we need to have a conversation about…” and left wing talk about “Speaking truth to power”. I don’t know if she can do it.
Iska- probably true, if so, Trump is a heavy favorite odds wise. Kamel Toes probably pencils out best against him, Blackish, Womanish, Commieish, and demonstrably able to suck her way through disadvantage, although that last quality diminishes with age.
When I was more involved in politics … in the leadup to the 2008 election and for a couple years afterward, I was really impressed with the likes of Susan Molinari.
What happened to her? I know she took a job at one of the networks (big mistake… look at Megyn Kelly) but is she still a political player at all? Susan Molinari, not the Kelly gal.
Chelsea Clinton?
Oh good god nooooo.
…Michelle O
Some truly frightening prospects. Speaking of reality TV stars… Oprah! She’s got the cash too. And is sooooo “christian”.
…blazing sarc…
What is sad are the people who would vote for Oprah just because she’s Oprah.
There is a serious lack of education for our children in this country now.
Because of NOW.
The image on the right is relevant but I really like the one of Bob Dole too… I did the photo edits and captions on both for this book, titled Women Transforming Congress, in 2003.
I know most are not going to appreciate this comment. I’m also not claiming higher levels of intelligence over anyone here.
“There is a serious lack of education for our children in this country now.”
There is a serious lack of education for adults in this country now. Adults have been brainwashed to believe the Bible is simply a book of bumper sticker slogans, if that.
It is the place where real knowledge begins.
Proverbs 1:7 KJB… “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.”
Peace, M G…
The kind that surpasses ALL understanding, preacher man.
Amen…
I’ll tell you one thing you will NOT have to pray for me about.
When the priest came to the funeral home, I was on the lookout. I knew he was gonna ask about the last rites and all the “requirements” for a full Catholic Mass. So, I just told him the truth… that I’d managed to get the rosary blessed on the USAF base at the chapel (who knew that you buy a rosary and they have “some assembly required?” and have to be blessed?), but when he decided to up and tell his doctor he wanted to stop all the life-extending medicines, I didn’t know a priest who I could ask to come visit. I told Father Pat how the Pastor had prayed with him and how the dear man had been so joyful he’d look out the window and said “Amazing Grace indeed!” Then, I told him if Poppa couldn’t get the service with “all the bells and whistles” then I guessed he was just going to end up sitting with my Granny Fannie in the Baptist section.
He didn’t laugh, but he smiled just a bit. He said “Ilario will receive the full Catholic Mass with all sacraments.”
So, he got all the bells and whistles. Funerals are for the living, but it meant a lot to Poppa that he get a funeral mass at that Cathedral where he was a poor little Italian kid fighting in the streets with the Irish Catholic kids.
When I came out with the family, my husband’s cousin from Italy wanted to see my little book (the New Testament) and didn’t know what it was. Really. I didn’t realize until later when I told a friend at work about reading from it at the mass, it was not okay. She looked a little worried about my having done it.
I told her I snuck communion one time at another Catholic service to see if it really was real wine and she was so shocked, well… I didn’t get struck dead, did I?
And it IS WINE.
Peace out!
Quite honestly there is no way to tell if you got struck dead. You might have been.
When I was asked why I put these two photos facing one another, I explained that it was my subtle way of making Bob face the fact that this issue was not going away. So, for everyone who bought the book (and to Cindy’s credit, she did NOT make it a text for any of her courses, though it is really a well compiled book, if you ask me), Bob Dole is still glaring at the NOW organization and his right hand man, Sheila Burke, is still trying to get him to pay attention.
?
Probably the best shot they have,however, considering “she” is likely a homosexual transvestite CIA MK ultra project, there is substantial risk of unintended consequences running “her” in a presidential campaign.
I love that comment Otto. I too would find it difficult to believe that they would turn to Oprah.
That was, I believe, the Clinton dream. To put Hillary into the White House, create Global World Order and then, put Chelsea into power.
I think, if Hillary had won the election (or stolen it or gotten it anywhichwayshecould) we would already be part of a World Confederation.
Trump did manage to stand in her way and stop that tidal wave.
One day it will come to the point of using the 2nd amendment. That’s why the left goes after guns.
“This is war. You see their tactics. You know what their objective are. Will you stand and fight?”
And yet you still do business with jootube, twit etc. To me that is what is called two-faced. Like someone complaining they can’t lose weight while they are eating an apple pie.
No mouse, I am using their tactics on them. They don’t even understand what I am doing to them because they don’t understand the tactics. They are just NPCs who can spout chants. The only response they have left is name calling and empty threats.
Crowder is using jootube against them…and by the way him and his half asian lawyer are winning biggly. Tim Pool is using jootube against them. Trump used twatter against them. Sargon of Akkad used jootube against them.
The legions are assembling. The warriors are standing forth. If you want to strike a blow, how about installing firefox on your computer and putting adblocker on. Then you don’t give money to jootube but the warriors receive view counts all the same. Eventually we might all migrate to BitChute, but for now the weapon that we have is this blog and jootube. So pick them up and start swinging.
An ad blocker will not help me on jootube, although I do use them, because I do not do jootube. How about Hooktube instead if there is a video you must watch. I do not support “Corporate America”, so I have been running ad blockers with Firefox for a LOOONG time. If you are doing business with jootube, then you are supporting them as well, or do you trust them to say who watched what video when billing their advertisers. You deal with the devil and you will get bit.
Of course, but if you want to reach people you have to play on the field that they inhabit. You can’t change any minds if you limit yourself to your own back yard. I personally applaud those who have taken to the available platforms and have stuffed it in the face of the communists who run them.
Big Injun Chief ,El Cajon , Tinker Bell and Yumbo in for the take down.
Meatballs , might want to stop while you’re still breathing.
Anyway , thanks for the laughs .
Just checking in . I’m in Joplin Missouri on lunch break. See you soon.
Are you coming by to pick up your beans?
That is a racist comment. I am offended. Please take it down.
.
“But there are people who are fighting back.”
Yes! And those people are known as RUSSIANS and CHINESE.
Solution,accountability lists and the willingness to start crossing off names,nothing less will work in my opinion.That said,do my best to avoid the gaggle/fecesbook/twaddles ect.,hard,as they have a presence it seems everywhere,including this site or it’s site host page.
I too avoid twatter and fecesbook but youtube is still the greatest platform for reaching people. Of course, you are right, you can’t make somebody watch a video just like you can’t make somebody read a book.
Somebody put Hollywood Roadkill out of his misery.
Is this all ya got there little buddy?
Why are you Hollywood Robbing TBP of all credibility, you loathesome BIRD?
By the way… the Blues won the cup and you lose.
If you haven’t figured it out, you idiot, I take these photos and upload them.
You are the stupid that fell off the BIRD’s butt.
I can’t believe you have posting privileges here and you do not know the facts of life.
Sometimes, it isn’t enough to kill them. You gotta burn them so they don’t come back.
Don’t just kill it… you gotta BURN and BLOCK it.
Time to focus on the positve, Maggie. You have got overwhelming support to carry on. This shitshow is over.
What kind of sick person posts a picture of a dead rabbit being burned? I am truly appalled.
This is going to end poorly for HR. He badmouths the site. He maligns the monkeys non-stop. He craps on every thread. He misrepresents every position put to him. He blathers on endlessly.
Dead man walking.
I have tried to explain that I really am who I am. He is INSANE. Completely INSANE.
I created a photo essay about the flooding on this side of the Mississippi and on the Illinois side (which is WORSE)… but there is NO WAY Ill put it here.
This is an image of Dry Dock at Cape Girardeau… I had to park on the Campus Riverside and make my way down the tracks to get to the riverside to take decent photos.
Well, that depends. Are we fighting for something? Or, by merely engaging in a street fight against Big Tech, Big Ag, Big [fill in the blank here], we’re ignoring the basis for the divide. I long ago realized that voting is an illusion, it is meant to nullify dissent by engaging the citizenry in the lies about representation and prevent appropriate citizen action.
The cause is not the re-election of Donald Trump. It is not about restoring Republicons or ANY political party to power. It is, very simply, about one very tiny group of Americans who understand what the Constitution says, what it means and how it organizes the governance of the country, including creating long-ignored limited and enumerated powers to the federal government. Republicans and Donald Trump are not the “cause” any more than Lincoln was the cause when the Civil War broke out.
Either this is a country in which ALL power derives from the People, which by definition means citizens and necessarily, logically excludes the Mexicans, Guatemalans, Hondurans, Indians, Jamaicans, H1b, E-5, Chinese, TPS, Saudis, Israelis and all the rest of them occupying our land. They possess no franchise or legitimate interest here. Further, if the People won’t take pains to remind…forcibly, if necessary…those in an extra-constitutional government and every area of this society that they have NO AUTHORITY to do what they do, we may as well take the advice printed on the bottom of the page and emigrate while we still can. This “government” has destroyed our peace, our prosperity, and now it seeks to destroy us.
Where is our Cicero? Where is our Brutus? Where is Cassius for that matter? Any man or woman who aspires to become Caesar – of any political bent, deserves to meet the same fate.
I have tried to stay out of it because when people get riled up anything can cause offense and that’s one thing I have tried to avoid for a long time now.
I have had interactions with pretty much every party involved in the real world outside of the Internet and in every one of those exchanges I found them all to be genuine and good people. I do not understand the dynamics at play here because no one really knows what’s going on in anyone’s life at any given time, but this has got to stop. There are no communists here, no one is fake, these are all authentic if somewhat odd people trying to make sense of a world that has gone off kilter. I don’t think that anyone involved would ever cause intentional harm or distress to another, but man, the Internet is a nasty muse. And she never forgets.
There’s an adage about not punching to your right, but I think the better part would be to just stop punching altogether. People don’t understand what a valuable asset TBP is for normal people with curious minds to just let their ideas rip so that other people can chime in. These places simply do not exist anymore, torching it out of spite or misunderstanding is beyond foolish.
Is there any way we can call a truce here and let bygones be bygones?
As I have said a couple times since I brought Gretchen out to play on a post which I had not even looked at for fear of triggering my potty mouth, I am more than willing to set aside my sword for the sake of civility.
If, and I repeat, Marc, IF (a really big IF) we are indeed fighting the same common enemy and stand on the side of truth.
But, as my father taught me to do long ago, I will just hide and watch. For now, I am really busy.
Painting rocks and listening to tunes.
Have you read my explanation above? Do you see why I have done what I am doing? Or do you just want to let the trolls continue on so you can live in your little bubble? You seem to fail to see that I call out maggie and ec because of what they do. It is not a shit storm. It is not somebody whit their panties in a twist. I see them as awful people trying to destroy a thing that I love. Not just TBP, but the country that I live in. They live in that country too. Their voice is just as loud as mine. If my ideals are to exist, they will have to contend with their ideals. If I don’t stand for my ideals, how can I complain when my way of life is shuffled aside by the communist hoards.
I understand, you just want a place to put up your writings. I like your writings. I want there to be a place where you can put up your writings. And I don’t want trolls destroying that place. So I call out maggie and ec.
Color me gone, I need a break.
So let me see if I get this straight. Yo-god of thunder will help me out if I get it wrong. It is fine for maggie and ec to follow my every comment with foul language and endless barrages of meaningless pictures of swollen rivers and old books and feet. It is fine for them to harass me. That is all within the rules of yo-god. But if I do that to them, I am in some way bad. Is that what you are saying?
You keep using the only tools you have. You threaten violence, you spew profanity, you wander off in the weeds and that is ok. In fact it is encouraged. But if I point out that it is troll behavior, that is in some way not acceptable.
But if I challenge dear sweet maggie; oh no, we can’t have that. Do you honestly believe that your words have power? Are you trying to suggest that I have been in some way harmed by your constant tirades? Are you sincerely convinced that you could in some way have an impact on me?
So the only conclusion that I can come to is that you are either trolls, who are trying to destroy the free flow of idea and enact a communist utopia, or your are in a bubble, a fantasy, and you don’t mind it. In fact you embrace your bubble. You love your trolls. OK.
HR,
I don’t think anyone on TBP should get so incensed as to unleash things you wouldn’t say to someone’s face. I do understand getting angry though. Just make your point.
Balls, I am not trolling you, I seriously want to know if you saw that I responded to your first request to “Just make your point.” I spent a lot of time on it and I would have thought that you would look for it and see that I had indeed made my point. And in spite of taking all that time, and making my point repeatedly, it seems that nobody knows that I made my point. That, coupled with maggies incessant trolling that shows no sign what so ever of abating leads me to believe that indeed none of you read what I write. I suspect that none of you read most of what everyone here writes. But I don’t want to level that slight at you so I will just wait for you to let me know that you did in fact read it.
Rob’s got a point here about being attacked unprovoked; there was a particularly interesting period of time there where Maggie seemed obsessed with self-fellatio.
It’s played out now, and most of the principals seem ready to cease-fire, save HR.
Seems about time to me. I think everyone’s made their point in spades and further hostilities are pointless.
I agree with Rdawg and HSF. I’m nobody here; Just a long-time reader, and occassional commenter. But this ongoing feud is starting to be a drag.
Let’s get back to Doom Porn, shall we?
What could be more doom pornish than posting pictures of burning bunnies?
I’ve been chastised for harming TBPers sensitive ears.
I have STOPPED.
Clearly you have not.
Have always loved this song. Not a clue what he’s saying.
There are some horrible translations online, this is my best approximation and it’s better even.
Rrr, flavor!
Oye como va (listen to it now, or hear how it goes)

Bueno pa’ gozar, (pleasant to enjoy)
