Tour report: Portland

The Big Bear's sold-out Fall 2019 tour begins tonight in Portland, so today is the last day you can support it from afar by purchasing the 2019 tour t-shirt. However, you will be able to purchase the signed, limited edition collector's DVD until the last of the 250 have been sold. The digital special and the digital documentary will be available indefinitely.

UPDATE: Now that the tour has begun, we are no longer selling the tour support t-shirts. Thanks very much to everyone who bought one and helped make the Fall 2019 tour possible! If you were at the show in Portland tonight, feel free to leave your comments about it here. However, please do NOT repeat any of the jokes that were told!

Please, PLEASE don't call him racist

If you ever doubted my assertion that a conservative is an individual who fears being called racist more than he fears God, the rape of his wife, the murder of his children, the destruction of his nation's economy or the collapse of his society, this mewling plea for a hard and bright line between conservatism and the defenders of the West should suffice to convince you of its truth:
Liberal commentators will always say conservatives are just a bunch of racists. This is a lie. But conservatives need to do a better job convincing the racists that it's a lie.

A handful of conservatives, including quietly influential figures in important conservative institutions, were outed last week by leaked emails as participating in a pro-Hitler, nakedly anti-Semitic, and plainly racist email list.

While liberal journalists are prone to inventing racism everywhere, this was no invention. The article in Splinter by Hannah Gais was no smear. It was serious and fair reporting that ought to cause conservatives to ask what we are doing wrong.

John Elliott, formerly of the Institute for Humane Studies and Intercollegiate Studies Institute, was a central figure in the story. IHS and ISI are respected and mainstream conservative institutions. Thousands of conservative and libertarian journalists and activists have passed through them. Hundreds of them received mentorship from Elliott. I’ve been friendly with Elliot for a decade. He’s brought me in (and gotten me paid) to speak to students at both organizations.

My first reaction upon reading the Splinter story was horror that otherwise sane-seeming people in the United States hold Hitlerian views. (For what it's worth, Elliott apologized for the emails and said he no longer believes those things. I pray that’s sincere.)

“According to one former mentee,” Gais wrote, “Elliott opened up to those he deemed ‘red-pilled’ — a term used by white nationalists and so-called ‘men’s rights activists’ to refer to someone who has been awakened to their cause.”

So my second reaction was: At least Elliott never suspected I was red-pilled.

My third reaction was: Great, now liberals are going to paint everyone who’s gone through IHS, ISI, or the Daily Caller as racists.

But my fourth reaction was the unsettling one: Why the hell did racists seek homes in conservative and liberal institutions, and why the hell were young conservatives easily won over to racist views?

Snide liberals will chuckle and say something like, “Because conservatism is racism.” But the snideness and falseness of that answer shouldn’t deter us from mulling over the question and doing something to make clear that conservatism and racism don’t mix — that if your red pill looks anything like Elliott's, you're really not welcome here.
I know Christians are not welcome in conservatism. I know nationalists are not welcome in conservatism. I know that anyone who wants to restore the pre-1965 USA or the pre-EU European nations is not welcome in conservatism. President Trump himself is not welcome in conservatism.

I don't care.

I am proud to say that I am not, and I have never been, a conservative. Others tried to claim I was, and I always corrected them. I was not rejected by conservatives, I found them entirely unworthy and rejected them.

So, where do you stand? With the lukewarm, boot-licking conservatives whose highest principle is compromise and who have conserved absolutely nothing in the entire history of their political identity or with Jesus Christ, the European nations, and the philosophical legacy of Greece and Rome?

And if you are not given a spirit of fear, then why is your entire identity wrapped up in a fear of being called racist? Why do you insist on claiming that your children are no different than the dogs?

Labour is no longer a worker's party

So, the good news is that the British Labour Party is no longer a worker's party and is now embracing libertarian principles. The bad news is those libertarian principles are open borders and full voting rights for non-citizens:
Labour members have voted overwhelmingly to give full voting rights to all UK residents, committing the party to extend the franchise to millions of immigrants.

A motion tabled by the Labour Campaign for Free Movement was passed at the party’s conference in Brighton on Wednesday morning, after MPs were forced to rush back to Westminster to attend the newly reconvened House of Commons.

As well as extending voting rights, the text commits a future Labour government to closing all immigration detention centres, ending “no recourse to public funds” policies and seeking to extend free movement rights to people around the world.

The motion also opposed immigration systems based on a person’s income or “utility to big business”, and any caps or targets on the number of people moving to the UK.

The shadow home secretary, Diane Abbott, welcomed the motion and acknowledged it was now Labour policy. “Be assured, our plans for government include these provisions and a lot more, to make this country a better, more decent and more prosperous place,” she said.
Still not convinced that libertarianism is fundamentally wrong at its core? This is a proposed implementation of genuine libertarian policies. With the ongoing failure of the neo-liberal world order, it is rapidly becoming more and more obvious that both conservatism and libertarianism, as well as neo-liberalism, can be even worse for a nation or for a society than socialism.

The Left is evil, without question, but it is not the epitome of political evil. Those depths are still being plumbed.

Don't let them leave

After the wall across the southern border is built, a second one needs to be built on the California border:
Just over half of California’s registered voters have considered leaving the state, with soaring housing costs cited as the most common reason for wanting to move, according to a new poll. Young voters were especially likely to cite unaffordable housing as a reason for leaving, according to the latest latest UC Berkeley Institute of Governmental Studies poll conducted for the Los Angeles Times. But a different group, conservatives, also frequently suggested they wanted to leave — and for a very different reason: They feel alienated from the state’s political culture.
They defecated all over their collective bed. Better they be sentenced to enjoy the hellhole they created rather than be permitted to travel elsewhere and recreate it.

This is why no city, state, or country should ever permit any immigrant, or his children, or his children's children, to vote. People are very bad at understanding causality and they tend to prefer the familiar, so despite the apparent senselessness of this behavior, it is not difficult to understand why emigrants reliably attempt to recreate the very conditions they sought to escape.

Steve Bannon is bad news

I'd gradually reached the conclusion that Steve Bannon was not on the side of the good, the beautiful, and the true despite his presumed role in helping elect the God-Emperor. But now we may have an inkling that he was just as much Establishment as the GOPe figures with whom he regularly brawled:
The butler who managed Jeffrey Epstein’s posh Paris pad claims he waited on a rotation of famous faces including Prince Andrew, Bill and Melinda Gates, as well as Steve Bannon, according to a report.

The butler, who only identified himself as Gabriel, has come forward about the convicted pedophile’s celebrity guests during his 18-year career working at the $8 million pied-à-terre, FranceInfo reported.

“I served crowned heads, diplomats, businessmen and politicians,” he told the outlet.

Among the powerful guests he listed were former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak and Prince Andrew, who would crash several nights at the apartment while Epstein was out of town, according to FranceInfo....

The butler also claimed his boss was still hosting famous guests at his Paris apartment last year. He said former White House chief strategist Bannon paid a visit in fall 2018. “I was even his driver in Paris,” Gabriel told his outlet.
In the autumn of 20-freaking-18 Bannon was still hanging out with Epstein? FFS, by 2018 even people who have absolutely nothing to do with money, power, or politics knew that Epstein was a damned pedo.

No wonder Trump didn't hesitate to kick him out.

All conservatives are cucks

In case I failed to make the point sufficiently clear in Cuckservative, former British Prime Minister and Conservative Party leader John Major has stepped in to clarify matters.
Most Conservatives are not a Brexit Party tribute band, nor have we abandoned our core values to find compromise, seek allies, and strive for unity, rather than division and disarray. We abhor the language of division and hate - and words such as 'saboteur', 'traitor', 'enemy', 'surrender', 'betrayal' have no place in our party, our politics, nor in our society.
Do you understand the significance of what he is saying there? Because he is inadvertently speaking the plain and simple truth. The core value of the conservative is the act of seeking compromise. The art of the conservative is practicing politics as conversation rather than as a form of war.

That, in a nutshell, is why I have always said that I am not a conservative.

And it is also why conservativism is an intrinsically non-Christian identity, for all its evangelical trappings in the USA.

Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. For I have come to turn "a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law—a man’s enemies will be the members of his own household."
- Matthew 10:34-36

Deplatforming the deplatformers

A newspaper fires a muckraking SJW for raking up old SJW muck:
The Des Moines Register has fired the journalist behind a controversial report on Carson King, the sports fan who raised over $1.7 million for charity with a plea for beer money, after offensive tweets by the reporter surfaced.

Editor Carol Hunter wrote about the paper’s decision in a lengthy post on Thursday night, stating that the reporter, Aaron Calvin, “is no longer with the Register.”

King went viral earlier this month after he displayed a sign on ESPN’s ‘College Game Day’ requesting Venmo donations to re-stock his “Busch Light Supply,” and ultimately racked up nearly $2 million in contributions. Not content to keep the money for himself, King offered to donate the funds to a local children’s hospital, which was soon matched by beer maker Anheuser-Busch. But King’s new-found fame would soon veer toward infamy.

In penning a profile on King for the Register, Calvin dug up racist internet posts that the sports fan had made as a teenager, but many readers reacted with anger, demanding to know why the Register transformed a story about charitable giving into another racism witch hunt.

Launching its own probe into the matter following the public reaction, the Register eventually found that the reporter in question had his own history with inappropriate tweets. Calvin soon deleted the posts and apologized for not holding himself “to the same high standards as the Register holds others,” but that apparently did not prevent the termination of his employment.
Silly Calvin. Didn't he know that being held unaccountable for past behavior now deemed inappropriate is only available to not-white not-men? It's always good to see genuine justice served, but it's all the more satisfying to see it served at the expense of its fake counterpart, social justice.

Immigration is a Ponzi scheme with people.
  • Conservatives are as useless as bowties on a battlefield.
  • They say you shouldn't kick a man when he's down. But it's harder to kick a man in the head when he's still standing.

Captain Marvel Jedi

The ultimate Devil Mouse crossover is all but inevitable at this point:
Disney appears to be shuffling the cards as Marvel Studios boss Kevin Feige will team up with Lucasfilm’s Kathleen Kennedy to produce a Star Wars film.

Walt Disney Studios co-chairman Alan Horn confirmed the project to The Hollywood Reporter stating:

“We are excited about the projects Kathy and the Lucasfilm team are working on, not only in terms of Star Wars but also Indiana Jones and reaching into other parts of the company including Children of Blood and Bone with Emma Watts and Fox. With the close of the Skywalker Saga, Kathy is pursuing a new era in Star Wars storytelling, and knowing what a die-hard fan Kevin is, it made sense for these two extraordinary producers to work on a Star Wars film together.”

Not only will Lucas be teaming with Kennedy for a Star Wars film, but THR reports, “One knowledgeable source says Feige has told a major actor that there’s a specific role he would like that person to play if and when he makes the movie.”

That report comes just hours after a rumor indicated Disney was looking to have Brie Larson play the lead role in an upcoming Star Wars film. It’s possible Larson could pull double duty in Star Wars and the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
I can't wait to read all the hate reviews of the eventual bomb. The only question will be who hates the crossovers more, the Marvel fans or the Star Wars fans. In either case, there will be a considerably fewer of them.

Human shield fail

None of the post-Baby Boomer generations fall for the "do it for the children" rhetoric anymore:
Motorists in Germany, the automotive heart of Europe, are not taking kindly to Swedish youth climate activist Greta Thunberg. Some drivers are sporting bumper stickers telling the girl, in so many words, to take a hike.

At the age of 15, Thunberg captivated a large segment of the media in Europe and the US with her impassioned calls for immediate action on climate change, prompting similar activism from youths the world over. As many German cities prepare to go carless, however, some drivers have not been appreciative of Thunberg’s globetrotting activism, and they aren’t afraid to tell their fellow motorists.

'F**k you Greta' bumper stickers appear on German roads, taking aim at youth climate activist

Some German social media users also noticed the trend, but not everybody found humor in the vulgar stickers, which can now apparently be purchased on Amazon.

“White Audi Q7 with sticker ‘F**k you Greta’ - is this the new ‘a heart for children’?” asked one Twitter user.
You'd think the global warming shills would have learned from the complete failure of the Sandy Hook and Parkland shootings to even move the needle on gun control. No one gives a damn if one, two, or a thousand kindergartens are reported as being shot up; they're still not giving up their guns.

And most German motorists would quite cheerfully run over the Gretard before even considering giving up their autos and autobahns.

Besides, if the planet is overheating due to overpopulation, who gives a damn about children's lives, let alone what they happen to think? And, perhaps more importantly, why would you let even one single immigrant enter the country and contribute to global warming?

All ur comedy is belong to us

The Hollywood Reporter divides comedy into SJW Empire and Alt-Right Rebels:
When Saturday Night Live fired Shane Gillis on Sept. 16 — just four days after he was cast as one of the latest Not Ready for Prime Time Players — the news was greeted with high-fives in much of the comedy community. Dana Gould tweeted that Gillis should strive to "be a better comic," while Silicon Valley actor Jimmy O. Yang posted that Gillis deserved to go because he was "just plain racist."

But not all comedians were rejoicing. On the contrary, the Gillis controversy — which began hours after his hiring, when podcasts surfaced of the 30-year-old Philadelphia comic calling presidential candidate Andrew Yang a "Jew chink" and spewing other racist and homophobic jokes — has become a flashpoint revealing a deep and widening rift in the comedy world. Like every other aspect of American life in the Trump era, stand-up is turning polarized, pitting comic against comic in an escalating civil war over what's acceptable humor and what's unfunny hate speech. "You millennials, you're a bunch of rats, all of you," Gillis defender Bill Burr snarled on David Spade's Comedy Central show. "None of them cares. All they want to do is get people in trouble."

If the pro-Gillis faction has a rebel base, it would be Gas Digital, a subscription streaming network (it charges $8.50 a month) based in New York's East Village and catering to alt-right sensibilities — or what others see as envelope-pushing, "anything goes" comedy in the vein of Lenny Bruce or Sam Kinison. Gillis was a regular on its airwaves (it's where he cracked his Andrew Yang jokes, as well as another in which he referred to Judd Apatow and actor Chris Gethard as "white faggot comics").

Says Gas Digital co-founder Luis J. Gomez, "It's funny, because when you said one side is very tolerant and inclusive, I was like, 'Yes, that's the side I'm on.' " Gomez, who co-hosts the service's popular Legion of Skanks podcast (it tallies half a million downloads per episode), insists any characterization of his network as "alt-right" is wildly off base. "We are on the side of funny," he says. "We're just trying to create freely. I think when you get off Twitter and Reddit and YouTube, you find people who aren't super sensitive about jokes."
It's amusing that they STILL don't dare to mention the Big Bear's name. It's not authorized, you see. But any journalist who wants to schedule an interview with him or any other Unauthorized persona is more than welcome to contact our Public Relations Specialist, Pax Dickenson.

Shut up and go home, conservatives

If you're not willing to actually fight for America, Western civilization, and Jesus Christ, you're literally worse than useless:
Big Conservatives can’t have it both ways. Either there is a war between the Left and the rest of us or there is not. If there is a war, then leftists compose the enemy, an adversary that, not unlike any other adversary in war, needs to be destroyed.

Half-measures, to say nothing of such emphatically un-war-like activities as “reaching across the aisle” and dialoguing, are to be rejected unless and only if they can end hostilities on terms that do not contribute to the “fundamental transformation” of our civilization.

Big Conservatives who constantly call on their audiences to help them “fight” the Left need to decide whether they endorse Politics As Conversation or Politics As War.

They scarcely ever fail to use the rhetoric of war, and spend no small amount of time pointing out to their listeners, viewers, and readers how and why it is that the Left truly is toxic to the survival of Western civilization and America. Yet they just as rarely advocate any measures that could reasonably be said to constitute strategies, or even tactics, against this enemy.

Big Conservatives seldom possess the stomach to even call the Left—which they convict of all sorts of crimes against humanity—as the enemy of our civilization. This is why so many of them distanced themselves from President Trump when he followed, impeccably followed, the logic of their own narrative to its inescapable conclusion by calling out the leftist media as “the enemy of the people.”

Of course, it’s true that the hyperbolic rhetoric that comprises the politics-as-war template for which the Big Conservative media is known is far more titillating—far better for circulation, ratings, and, thus, profits—than the terminology proper to politics-as-conversation.

But as Master Al said, since real fights are war, and nothing less than life-or-death is at stake in war, those who would become combatants must be willing to either “go big” or “go home.”
Conservatives are useless losers. Don't call yourself a conservative unless you too are a loser. Conservatives have conserved nothing - literally nothing - since Russell Kirk published his landmark work. It's a failed non-ideology.

Conservatives are as useless as bowties on a battlefield.

The tip of the iceberg

It is increasingly apparent that these bizarre "impeachment" theatrics are an attempt to distract from the gathering Storm. From 4chan:
Hunter Biden is placed on the board of Ukraine’s most corrupt energy company, owned by (((them))), he has no knowledge nor experience for the position, one of the last acts of the Obama presidency was to send $1billion in aid to Ukraine, the entire deal was Joe Biden’s idea, the money was used to buy aid related things for the people of Ukraine, but the money went to fake corporations registered in Cyprus, the people never got any aid, the fake corporations were created by the energy company Hunter Biden is a board member of.

The US taxpayer money disappears, no aid is delivered to Ukraine, Trump becomes president, no one asks any questions where the money went nor why until now.

Before Hunter’s position as board member for the Ukraine company, he was one of the top guys at a company called Rosemont Seneca. The entire company was a scam, a front for legalized bribery. Chinese corporations that were fronts for the Chinese government invested heavily multiple times into Rosemont Seneca, hundreds of millions of dollars, and in return Joe Biden, along with John Kerry whose step son was in the company too, negotiated softball deals over US-China relations. Biden basically sold out the US, the American people, and the American military by allowing Chinese corporate expansion all over the world via sea routes, the interesting thing about Chinese corporation sea routes and ports is that their placements don’t make logical sense, unless you look at from a military point of view.

If Trump is actually going after Biden for his billion dollar scam, that may be the tip of the iceberg. The reason why politicians are beginning to call for Trump’s execution is because the Obama administration has done things that warrant that exact thing.
There are probably dozens, if not hundreds of similar scams to be uncovered. No wonder they are beyond desperate to delay the day of reckoning. Although "desperate" may be an understatement.
MSNBC cut from President Trump’s press conference on Wednesday, claiming the president was repeating lies about his political rival Joe Biden as a “deflection” from the impeachment inquiry. “We hate to do this, really, but the president isn’t telling the truth,” MSNBC host Nicole Wallace said as the network cut from Trump’s speech. 
Remember the third law of social justice. What is it that SJWs always do, besides lie and double down? Exactly. The fact that they connected "Joe Biden" and "deflection" tells you everything you need to know about the rationale for their actions.

Did every previous US President always tell the truth? Of course not. And did the media organizations covering them ever cut away from the broadcast on the basis claimed? There you have it.

On kicking a man when he's down

Mailvox: are they that stupid?

Mystic on Main puts his judgment on the line:
That aside here's what I'm thinking. The Dems must have seen the transcript of the call and they must not only know who the whistleblower is but also have talked to them. There's no way Pelosi would have endorsed impeachment hearings without seeing there is something to grab on to. Which makes me think there is something they can run with.
Surely the Democrats couldn't be that stupid, right? They couldn't POSSIBLY be THAT stupid, right? They're not THAT desperate about 2020 ALREADY, are they?

I guess we're going to find out soon.

UPDATE: Yep, it looks like they really are that desperate and stupid.
The president's phone call — made from the White House residence to Zelenskiy — began with Trump congratulating Zelenskiy on his election victory. Later, Trump veers into the Biden issue.

"I heard you had a prosecutor who was very good and he was shut down, which is really unfair,” Trump says on the call, according to the transcript. Trump then says, "There’s a lot of talk about Biden’s son, what Biden stopped the prosecution and a lot of people want to find out about that, so whatever you can do with the attorney general would be great.”

“Biden went around bragging that he stopped the prosecution, so if you can look into it, It sounds horrible to me,” Trump said on the call, according to the transcript.

Zelenskiy replies that he’s appointing a new prosecutor who will “look into the situation.”

That is the only mention about Biden in the transcript of the call. The call transcript is five pages.
UPDATE: Democrats SAY they have their majority. But even the media doubts that they actually mean it:
Two hundred and eighteen House Democrats and one independent — a majority of the chamber's 435 members — now favor some kind of impeachment action against President Donald Trump, according to an NBC News tally.

House Democrats reached the milestone a day after Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced a formal impeachment inquiry into the president following claims that he might have withheld aid to Ukraine to pressure officials there to investigate former Vice President Joe Biden and his son.

Download the NBC News app for breaking news and politics

That nearly all House Democrats support some kind of impeachment action represents a significant development in the chamber's push forward with official impeachment proceedings.

But that doesn't mean they will all vote to impeach the president.
It's rather amusing to see Democrats behaving like Republicans traditionally do. They initially claim to want the same thing, then proceed to fight over the details on how to do it and end up doing nothing as a result. The God-Emperor really has them spinning in circles.

Leather-bound books

We've been looking into the possibility of making sets of leather-bound Junior Classics available, which raised the obvious question: are there any Castalia House books that people would like to be able to buy in a leather-bound edition? They wouldn't be cheap, so we probably wouldn't make more than four or five books available this way.

Discuss amongst yourselves.

UPDATE: Please note that I am only interested in hearing what books those individuals who have already expressed interest in deluxe leather-bound editions would be most interested in having produced. That's why we're looking into the various possibilities in the first place.

If that doesn't describe you, that's fine, but then this conversation doesn't involve you.

It's always interesting to speak to a Boomer or to a Millennial about my allegedly controversial status. Relatively few of the former and a minority of the latter are able to grasp my total disinterest in obtaining mainstream approval or authorization.

The impeachment trap

The Democrats took the bait:
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi launched a formal impeachment inquiry against President Donald Trump on Tuesday, yielding to mounting pressure from fellow Democrats and plunging a deeply divided nation into an election year clash between Congress and the commander in chief.

The probe focuses partly on whether Trump abused his presidential powers and sought help from a foreign government to undermine Democratic foe Joe Biden and help his own reelection. Pelosi said such actions would mark a “betrayal of his oath of office” and declared: “No one is above the law.”

The impeachment inquiry, after months of investigations by House Democrats of the Trump administration, sets up the party’s most direct and consequential confrontation with the president, injects deep uncertainty into the 2020 election campaign and tests anew the nation’s constitutional system of checks and balances.

Trump, who thrives on combat, has all but dared Democrats to take this step, confident that the specter of impeachment led by the opposition party will bolster rather than diminish his political support.
The fact that the God-Emperor appears to be prepared to spring the trap tends to suggest that he is right.
The White House is preparing to release to Congress by the end of the week both the whistleblower complaint and the Inspector General report that are at the center of House Democrats’ impeachment inquiry, according to a senior administration official, reversing its position after withholding the documents from lawmakers.

The move shows the level of seriousness with which the administration is now approaching the House‘s new impeachment proceedings, even as President Donald Trump publicly tried to minimize the inquiry as a “witch hunt” or “presidential harassment,” or a move that will help him win his 2020 reelection campaign.

The administration official stressed the decision and timing could change over the next few days, but as of Tuesday evening the White House was planning give the information to lawmakers on Capitol Hill. The format of presentation, or process of viewing the documents,remained up in the air. The president has agreed to the move, the official added.

Mailvox: Boomer tales

A reader tells a familiar tale of Boomer entitlement:
A couple of regulars at the bar/kitchen I work came in the other day with a pack of friends. One of their friends was a girl who had been previously eighty sixed so a bartender calmly informed her she had to leave. Immediately the leader of the pack went berserk and started pacing up and down the aisle barking obscenities before storming out with her little birthday clan, trying to take as many people she could with her.

This person is a school administrator for the district. She knows all the bartenders since they were kids. Her and her husband are well known in the community. Where the hell do they get off acting like that?

The most demoralizing fact is just to think of the ungodly salary she makes comprised entirely of tax loot. Loot collected from the service industry, from the oil field, my family's bread and butter. Then she comes into my workplace and when even slightly contradicted flips out and tries to rob customers and tips right out of me and my coworkers' pockets. The Boomer "education" aristocracy at its very infantile finest.
It will not surprise me if one day in the not-too-distant future, there are bounties paid for people like that.

The noble savage

How can you not love the God-Emperor? He's the best comedian on Twitter.

The Gretard: "You have stolen my dreams and my childhood with your empty words.... People are suffering, people are dying, entire ecosystems are collapsing!"

God-Emperor Trump I: "She seems like a very happy young girl looking forward to a bright and wonderful future. So nice to see!"

Pure savagery. I sincerely hope the Democrats nominate the Gretard next year. What? It's not as if it would be the first time the Democrats decided to run an ineligible nominee.

It's amusing to see how quickly Fox News cucks these days. It's now beyond obvious that they've fully merged with the ABCNNBCBS hive mind.
"The climate hysteria movement is not about science. If it were about science, it would be led by scientists, rather than by politicians and a mentally ill Swedish child who is being exploited by her parents and by the international left."

Liberal podcast host Chris Hahn, who was also a guest on the show, told Knowles he should be ashamed of his comments.

Knowles replied: "She is mentally ill. She has autism. She has obsessive compulsive disorder, she has selective mutism. She had depression."

But Fox News apologized for the comments and said the network had 'no plans' for Knowles to appear as a guest in the future.
What sort of moronic media whore wants to be on Fox in the first place? I was turning down their invitations back when Hannity and Colmes were still a team. Anyhow, it's true. The Gretard is mentally ill and that fact should be thrown in her retarded face every time she opens her stupid mouth, just like it should be thrown in the face of every mentally ill individual who dares to tell normal, functioning human beings anything at all about how they should live.

And yes, that is a Jordan Peterson reference, just in case you weren't absolutely certain.

I'm all for leaving retards alone to make stupid faces and take their pills and chew on their tongues in squalor if that's what makes them happy, but I draw a very hard and bright line at pretending to take their low-IQ moaning seriously.

4GW goes geo-strategic

I'm not the only one who has noticed that the Yemeni drone attacks on Saudi Arabia have significantly changed the geo-strategic situation as well as the prospects for future war:
The devastating attack on Saudi oil facilities by drones and missiles not only transforms the balance of military power in the Middle East, but marks a change in the nature of warfare globally.

On the morning of 14 September, 18 drones and seven cruise missiles – all cheap and unsophisticated compared to modern military aircraft – disabled half of Saudi Arabia’s crude oil production and raised the world price of oil by 20 per cent.

This happened despite the Saudis spending $67.6bn (£54bn) on their defence budget last year, much of it on vastly expensive aircraft and air defence systems, which notably failed to stop the attack. The US defence budget stands at $750bn (£600.2bn), and its intelligence budget at $85bn (£68bn), but the US forces in the Gulf did not know what was happening until it was all over.

Excuses advanced for this failure include the drones flying too low to be detected and unfairly coming from a direction different from the one that might have been expected. Such explanations sound pathetic when set against the proud boasts of the arms manufacturers and military commanders about the effectiveness of their weapons systems.

Debate is ongoing about whether it was the Iranians or the Houthis who carried out the attack, the likely answer being a combination of the two, but perhaps with Iran orchestrating the operation and supplying the equipment. But over-focus on responsibility diverts attention from a much more important development: a middle ranking power like Iran, under sanctions and with limited resources and expertise, acting alone or through allies, has inflicted crippling damage on theoretically much better-armed Saudi Arabia which is supposedly defended by the US, the world’s greatest military super-power.
This is potentially very good news for humanity, in much the same way and for much the same reason that Minutemen defeating British regulars with cheap, readily-available musketry was good news. Historian Carroll Quigley observed that the democratization of weaponry tended to expand human freedom, while the monopolization of it tended to reduce it.

Today, it is the common man who has to fear the SWAT raid or the drone strike ordered by the rich and powerful. Tomorrow, the rich and the powerful will be every bit as vulnerable to the common man who is wronged by their actions.

Big Brother in America

So much for the Land of the Free propaganda. Only the Chinese and the British are as spied upon as Americans:
CNN HQ-host Atlanta was the US city to make the top ten list, with 15.56 cameras per thousand residents. Cities in China dominated the top 10 ten, with 8/10 spots. Cities in China averaged 39.93 to 168.03 cameras per thousand residents. London, England, was No. 6 on the list with 68.40 cameras per thousand residents.

The five other US cities on the top 50 most surveilled places in the world were all Democratic party bastions, including Chicago No. 13 with 13.06 cameras per thousand residents; Washington, DC, No. 28 with 5.61 cameras per thousand residents; San Francisco No. 38 with 3.07 cameras per thousand residents; San Diego No. 42 with 2.48 cameras per thousand residents, and Boston No. 46 with 2.23 cameras per thousand residents.

Kenneth Johnson, former Chicago Police Department commander of the Englewood district, told the New York Times last year that residents shouldn't be worried about their privacy because the cameras are in public places. "This isn't a secret. This isn't an Orwellian 'Big Brother.'"

Atlanta Sgt. John Chafee told Route Fifty that surveillance cameras "play a vital role" in keeping the public safe and the city is expected to expand its more than 7,800 cameras in the next several years.
Cameras keep the public safe? Despite the cameras, Atlanta, Chicago, and Washington DC are all in the top twenty cities with the highest murder rates in the USA. They'll need to produce a better excuse for erecting the American Panopticon.

Devil Mouse confirms diversity agenda

As if there was ever even the slightest shadow of a doubt:
Disney CEO Bob Iger confirmed the company has a diversity agenda.

In a recent interview with the New York Times, interviewer Maureen Dowd pointed out to Iger that the top executives of Disney are white men in their TV, film, parks and consumer products, and streaming and international divisions.

Alan Bergman is the co-chairman Walt Disney Studios alongside Alan Horn. Bob Chapek is the Chairman of Disney parks, Experiences, and Products, Peter Rice is the Chairman of Walt Disney Television, and Kevin Mayer is the Chairman of Direct-to-Consumer & International.

Iger responded saying, “You have to look one level down, because we’ve done a lot.” However, he did acknowledge that Disney is “lacking” in diversity when it comes to the people who are directly reporting to him. He did make it clear he plans to change that before he leaves the company saying, “I’ll change that before I leave.” Iger is expected to retire from Disney in 2021.
What's Iger going to do for an encore, announce that the only thing the Devil Mouse hates more than copyright is Jesus Christ?

The network of helpers

It's interesting to see how the media keeps inching closer and closer to admitting that Pizzagate is real in all but name:
Former Palm Beach police chief Michael Reiter revealed during an interview with NBC News’ Dateline that convicted sex offender and accused sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein was always one step ahead of investigators. He suggested that the disgraced financier had a mole within the force that helped him evade Palm Beach police who began investigating his alleged sex trafficking in 2005.

The Miami Herald reports that Epstein’s alleged sex trafficking ring was also supported by a network of helpers from professions, such as hairdressers, immigration lawyers, dentists, and psychiatrists. Epstein also reportedly had connections to doctors that screened his victims for sexually transmitted diseases and prescribed them birth control.
I've known "the network of helpers" was real since the moment I saw the "Pizzagate is debunked" meme appear simultaneously in nearly every mainstream media organ despite there being no factual information in any of the purported debunkings. Now, I know literally nothing about the sexual and dietary habits of the globalist elite - I keep my distance from them and I've never even seen Eyes Wide Shut - but as a GamerGater, I know a coordinated media campaign when I see one.

And nothing, not even the "Saddam Hussein has weapons of mass destruction" meme, has ever been as aggressively coordinated and propagated as the "Pizzagate is debunked" meme. Once you understand that the Bible is legit and Satan rules the world, it's not that hard to recognize who is actively on his side.

The vanishing of history

The globalists have already vanished an astonishing amount of 20th century history:
The recent 70th anniversary of the outbreak of the conflict that consumed so many tens of millions of lives naturally provoked numerous historical articles, and the resulting discussion led me to dig out my old copy of Taylor’s short volume, which I reread for the first time in nearly forty years. I found it just as masterful and persuasive as I had back in my college dorm room days, and the glowing cover-blurbs suggested some of the immediate acclaim the work had received. The Washington Post lauded the author as “Britain’s most prominent living historian,” World Politics called it “Powerfully argued, brilliantly written, and always persuasive,” The New Statesman, Britain leading leftist magazine, described it as “A masterpiece: lucid, compassionate, beautifully written,” and the august Times Literary Supplement characterized it as “simple, devastating, superlatively readable, and deeply disturbing.” As an international best-seller, it still surely ranks as Taylor’s most famous book, and I can easily understand why it was still on my college required reading list nearly two decades after its original publication.

Yet in revisiting Taylor’s ground-breaking study, I made a remarkable discovery. Despite all the international sales and critical acclaim, the book’s findings soon aroused tremendous hostility in certain quarters. Taylor’s lectures at Oxford had been enormously popular for a quarter century, but as a direct result of the controversy “Britain’s most prominent living historian” was summarily purged from the faculty not long afterwards. At the beginning of his first chapter, Taylor had noted how strange he found it that more than twenty years after the start of the world’s most cataclysmic war no serious history had been produced carefully analyzing the outbreak. Perhaps the retaliation that he encountered led him to better understand part of that puzzle.

Taylor was hardly alone in suffering such retribution. Indeed, as I have gradually discovered over the last decade or so, his fate seems to have been an exceptionally mild one, with his great existing stature partially insulating him from the backlash following his objective analysis of the historical facts. And such extremely serious professional consequences were especially common on our side of the Atlantic, where many of the victims lost their long-held media or academic positions, and permanently vanished from public view during the years around World War II....

We may easily imagine that some prominent and highly-regarded individual at the peak of his career and public influence might suddenly take leave of his senses and begin promoting eccentric and erroneous theories, thereby ensuring his downfall. Under such circumstances, his claims may be treated with great skepticism and perhaps simply disregarded.

But when the number of such very reputable yet contrary voices becomes sufficiently large and the claims they make seem generally consistent with each other, we can no longer casually dismiss their critiques. Their committed stance on these controversial matters had proved fatal to their continued public standing, and although they must have recognized these likely consequences, they nonetheless followed that path, even going to the trouble of writing lengthy books presenting their views, and seeking out some publisher somewhere who was willing to release these.

John T. Flynn, Harry Elmer Barnes, Charles Beard, William Henry Chamberlin, Russell Grenfell, Sisley Huddleston, and numerous other scholars and journalists of the highest caliber and reputation all told a rather consistent story of the Second World War but one at total variance with that of today’s established narrative, and they did so at the cost of destroying their careers. A decade or two later, renowned historian A.J.P. Taylor reaffirmed this same basic narrative, and was purged from Oxford as a consequence. I find it very difficult to explain the behavior of all these individuals unless they were presenting a truthful account.

If a ruling political establishment and its media organs offer lavish rewards of funding, promotion, and public acclaim to those who endorse its party-line propaganda while casting into outer darkness those who dissent, the pronouncements of the former should be viewed with considerable suspicion. Barnes popularized the phrase “court historians” to describe these disingenuous and opportunistic individuals who follow the prevailing political winds, and our present-day media outlets are certainly replete with such types....

World War II ended nearly three generations ago, and few of its adult survivors still walk the earth. From one perspective the true facts of that conflict and whether or not they actually contradict our traditional beliefs might appear rather irrelevant. Tearing down the statues of some long-dead historical figures and replacing them with the statues of others hardly seems of much practical value.

But if we gradually conclude that the story that all of us have been told during our entire lifetimes is substantially false and perhaps largely inverted, the implications for our understanding of the world are enormous.
This is why it is vital to read, collect, and preserve history. If it were not so important, the Year Zeroes would not place such importance on discrediting and disappearing the historians of yesteryear.

The lethal poison of debt

Usury eventually kills every company that grows through debt, and sooner or later, it will kill the economy too:
There were tears at Thomas Cook's Peterborough headquarters today as 9,000 UK staff lost their jobs and 12,000 more around the world are also of work after the world's oldest and most famous travel operator officially went bust at 2am.

The company's check-in desks at the 20-plus UK airports the business flew from are shut today with all customers with holidays and flights told they are cancelled - but many will not get their money back for months. 600 high street store are also locked up today.

 Last-minute talks to try and rescue the ailing firm collapsed last night with nobody willing to service its £1.7billion debt, and the Civil Aviation Authority announced the end for the 178-year-old company in the early hours of this morning.

Boris Johnson today said that the Government had been asked to bail-out the business with £150million of taxpayers' money but they had refused.

He said: 'Clearly that's a lot of taxpayers' money and sets up, as people will appreciate, a moral hazard in the case of future such commercial difficulties that companies face.
The math of usury is clear and impossible. Real growth can never keep up with compounding interest. This is why debt is evil and why regular debt jubilees are necessary, even though the usurers use all of their power to try to prevent their victims from escaping.

Think about how many of these historical, century-old companies that are suddenly collapsing almost overnight. There isn't any saving them. There isn't any way out. And the catastrophic consequence of these inevitable failures is why these companies should not be permitted to grow so big in the first place.

Remember, corporations are NOT capitalism. They are government interventions in the economy, artificial creations in which the government absolves the normal legal responsibilities of the shareholders and executives.

Creepy Joe is done

He's fading almost as fast as Jeb Bush did:
Elizabeth Warren has surged in Iowa, narrowly overtaking Joe Biden and distancing herself from fellow progressive Bernie Sanders, the latest Des Moines Register/CNN/Mediacom Iowa Poll shows.

Warren, the U.S. senator from Massachusetts, now holds a 2-percentage-point lead, with 22% of likely Democratic caucusgoers saying she is their first choice for president. It is the first time she has led in the Register’s poll.

Former Vice President Biden, who had led each of the Register’s three previous 2020 cycle polls, follows her at 20%. Sanders, the U.S. senator from Vermont, has fallen to third place with 11%.

No other candidate reaches double digits.
It's still too soon to call it, but it is increasingly looking like Warren will be the sacrificial lamb offered up to the God-Emperor.

The victory of the secret king

A Peterson cultist named Dan Poynton wants me to know that he won another imaginary argument with me. No, make that TWO imaginary arguments!
I interacted with you & your youtube watchers a while back re one of the many Peterson videos you've made, which you will have probably forgotten.

I just want you to know that I know what you're up to. You blocked me from making comments. Apart from this obviously being an admission that you'd lost any argument between us, I also thought it was extremely cowardly. And I admit, with your obvious intelligence and strength of character,  I was really shocked. I mean, why would you block an obviously lesser-IQ individual like myself, who was interacting with both you and your fans with civility and informed/considered posts? Totally unnecessary and I was never expecting such an early admission of defeat on your part.

Anyway, I've stopped listening to you recently, because I realise your material is actually quite "evil" (to use your word), and my attraction to it is not a healthy thing. However, I can't resist anything you put out re JP, because your derangement and anger over this man is first-class entertainment. And I've realised that you've become so deranged now (re this issue, not with many others, about which I have often enjoyed listening to you) that you've almost abandoned logic altogether.

Below is my post, which I presumed only you would see, but perhaps you didn't:

There is now no doubt: Vox Day is an utter idiot. In his deranged Peterson fury, he's incapable of even saying anything logical. I've enjoyed Vox's other stuff at times, but the man is just another high-IQed idiot who specialises in fallacious rhetoric (despite his lofty claims to the contrary).

However, I actually believer you CAN'T be so stupid as to not realise this. You're an intelligent guy, Vox. You're deliberately misleading your fawning fans with rhetorical - and often completely false - polemic, and this is dishonest and displays your obvious lack of integrity.

You'll no doubt now block my email address - don't worry, I don't care, and it will only be a further admission of your dishonesty and derangement.
I just think it's funny that he insists I'm the dishonest, angry, deranged one when Jordan Peterson is in rehab for drug addiction barely a year after he claimed he wasn't taking any medications due to his magic diet.

If I ever run for Emperor of Man, my platform will include mandatory euthanasia for gamma males at the age of 18, with a second round at 25 just in case we missed any of them. I expect I'll win 100 percent of the female vote with that policy.

Forget conferences, we need these for life

I can't say that I would honestly mind having a badge that would forbid anyone to talk to me in real life:
Transgender conference organisers have given academics traffic light 'safe space' badges to show whether they can cope with a conversation.

Scholars attending the Thinking Beyond: Transversal Transfeminisms event at Roehampton University in southwest London were given green, amber and red lanyards to signal if they could talk.

A green badge meant 'I wish to speak with other delegates and welcome you to approach', yellow was for 'I will approach you if I wish to speak' and red meant 'I do not wish to speak with other delegates.'

The guests were able to switch between the colours if they chose during the day, according to the Sunday Times.
Women, of course, will require a pink badge, which means "I do not wish for you to speak with me unless I find you attractive."
