Another Quote of the Day

The Archbishop of Canterbury seems to be of the view that somewhere in the Bible, it says "take the wealth of others by force and give it to people best able to work the political system". Just another statist thug, but then we already knew that.

-- Perry de Havilland, Samizdata

From the Unpublished Memoirs of Allen Keller:

They had to bring in the vicar from FU's district [4] in Southampton to officiate. Most of the senior Anglican clergy, especially the Archbishop of Canterbury, who very thoroughly loathed FU wanted no part of the whole affair. My (lack of) God! What a fucking waste of mass and energy! The current Archbishop of Canterbury would rather quote from Marx and Engels than from Jesus Christ and he'd rather do a blowjob on an Ayatollah or a Soviet Commissar than say a kind word about Western Civilization.

One of my passengers once asked me if I was an Objectivist and I answered in the affirmative. He then asked me what I thought of the current economic and political situation and I said that I thought that Atlas Shrugged was supposed to be a work of fiction.

Quote of the Day

Try to understand this elementary principle of collectivist politics: you are not yours. Your life does not belong to you. You are a “resource” to be employed at the discretion of others

- Billy Beck

In short, we're livestock.

Thought for the Day

How a progressive can turn into a fascist in three easy steps.

1. Take a bath or shower.

2. Get a haircut.

3. Put on a clean party uniform.

That's it. That's all it takes.

MORON OF THE DAY

While parked at a taxi stand in downtown Minneapolis I noticed that someone with a bunch of progressive stickers on their mountain bike ("SIMPLIFY YOUR LIFE...", "THIS MACHINE KILLS FASCISTS") did not lock the bike to the signpost marking the taxi stand but to the kryponine type lock of the ten-speed bike that was actually locked to the signpost. I suppose this gives a new meaning to Rand's concept of the Second Hander. Think of it as parasitism in action.

(Seriously, I wish I had a camera with me to record this sort of stuff.)

What a f***ing moron. These f***ing morons believe that they're smarter than the rest of us? Why do we allow any of them to vote? Why should anyone take orders from them?

I simply can't think of a reason.

So Anyway

Charles Johnson, the master of Little Green Footballs, is apparently appalled that Rush Limbaugh made the suggestion that a professional Enemy of Human Kind should commit suicide.

Part of what Mr. Limbaugh said was:

The environmentalist wackos are the same way. This guy from The New York Times, if he really thinks that humanity is destroying the planet, humanity is destroying the climate, that human beings in their natural existence are going to cause the extinction of life on Earth — Andrew Revkin. Mr. Revkin, why don’t you just go kill yourself and help the planet by dying?

Comrade Revkin has suggested that us mere mortals should voluntarily limit our reproduction in or to limit the emission of carbon dioxide by human beings. (Never mind the fact that carbon dioxide is a natural component of the terrestrial atmosphere whose quantity has been discernibly decreasing over the course of geological time.)

But because rational persons, who naturally refuse to believe the nonsense emitted by environmentalists, will not voluntarily limit the number of children they have -- so that a bunch of moral parasites can feel good about themselves -- there will be open calls for limitation of "breeders" by force. This will be followed, by those true believers in power, by the actual exercise of force to control breeding, through forced abortions and sterilization. Which in turn will be followed by the elimination of those "breathers" who are deemed by Environmentalist Elites (the Elect of Gaia, as it were) to be useless or "counter-environmental."

The nice words for this are subjugation and murder.

We should not be the slightest bit surprised that the Environmentalists will join the ranks of the mass-murderers because they, like the socialists that they evolved from, basically see productive humans as livestock to controlled and used. They see us creatures without a right to live.

There's a proper term for those who deny your Right of Life, they are properly called mortal enemies.

Charles Johnson has decided to hang with the Enemies of Mankind. He shouldn't be the slightest bit surprised when he is hanged with them.

Something I want to do to the next asshole I see wearing a Che shirt:

Asshole: Sure!

Asshole: (THUD!)


Here's more on that murderer.

So Anyway

While I was driving my cab yesterday I heard Rush Limbaugh say that up to the Holocaust Hitler and the Nazis were Leftists.

I have to disagree.

Marx was a raving antisemite. Old school Progressives (the one they NEVER teach you about in the public schools) had "issues" with those they saw as the "inferior" races. (Africans, Jews, Asians, etc.) And eliminating those who don't fit into the collective makes perfect sense to a collectivist.

I've come to the conclusion that anyone who sees another person as either a tool to be used, or as trash to be disposed of, is essentially a Leftist. (Which pretty much puts me to the right of Attila the Hun.)

Quotes of the Day

From the latest episode of Freefall I present the following quotes.

The Mayor tells us how to really make someone suffer:

"That rotten little space mollusk! I'll teach him to hit me with a pie! I'll rip his tentacles off! I'll boil him in pudding and drive a stake of mistletoe through his heart! I'll have him tied to a post and forced to attend every single budget meeting for the nest century!"

And The Mayor on the concept of Justice:

"Now I'm really going to kill him! How dare he get me this mad and then be innocent of what I'm accusing him of!"

We now return you to your original reality.

An Observation

One thing that I have noticed on the occasions where I have to drive my Taxi Cab through the campus of the University of Minnesota is that virtually all of the students and most of the nominal adults DO NOT LOOK TO EITHER SIDE TO CHECK FOR ONCOMING TRAFFIC WHEN CROSSING THE STREET.

This makes the process of driving through the campus rather interesting.

Surreal Thought of the Day

I had a silly thought.

Visualize for a moment a few urban gangster types (likely wanna-be gang bangers) sitting in their absurdly pimped out car at a red light with the stereo emitting the usual noise.

Crossing the intersection in an ornate carriage is someone who looks like Frederick the Great, following the carriage on wagons is an orchestra playing the Brandenburg Concerto, drowning out the stereo in the gangster car. We see the astounded expressions on the faces of the gangsters.

Just a thought I had while parked at a taxi stand with the radio on the local classical station.

Projection is when the self-appointed deity, sitting on a throne of human skulls, points a finger of a blood stained hand at those who seek to stop his rampage and screams "murderers!"

Les Doesn't Play Well With Others, or the Morons of Tomorrow.

While I'm at it I should also mention that a previously mentioned group of morons is still at it.

Here's their website, I won't bother to quote the site this time. Just read it yourself.

A rational study of the real world would show that a real state of Peace is effectively indistinguishable from a state of Liberty and a state of Security. Peace, Liberty, and Security are simply three words that a rational person uses to describe the same condition, the rightful ability to live one's own life without coercive interference by others.

A rational study of actual history would show that the state of peace for the citizens of a free nation is the result of the violent elimination of the would be conquerors and their pet quislings.

If we rationally examine those who constitute the membership of the so-called Peace Movement we find that virtually every one of them is an open advocate of the coercive subjugation of the productive members of the Human Race. The occasional exception being a self-blinded fool who isn't paying attention to what they're ideologically in bed with.

In short, a "peace activist" and the "peace movement" are in fact enemies of Peace.

The other side doesn't get it because they don't want to get it. They don't want to get it because it would mean that they would have to admit that they are part of the problem.

Down The Memory Hole?

Yesterday I posted a link to news story to the RWING mailing list and the first paragraph of the story about a detail of Die Grosse Null's plan for destroying the health of Americans.

"Americans would be fined up to $3,800 for failing to buy health insurance under a plan that circulated in Congress on Tuesday as divisions among Democrats undercut President Barack Obama's effort to regain traction on his health care overhaul."

Are we now on a plantation? Or is the Chicago Democrat setting up a protection racket?

This morning when I clicked on the link I found that the story had been changed. The subject of the original first paragraph had been moved down the page and rewritten.

"One provision would fine families up to $3,800 for failing to buy health insurance, essentially requiring that everyone have medical coverage, much like the case with car insurance. Obama rejected a mandate, and fines, during his presidential campaign."

Oh, they were only thinking about it, but they decided not to do it. (Or have they?)

They should not have been thinking about it at all.

What do they, both in our so-called government and in the mainstream media, think we are? A bunch of mindless animals?

I'll update this story as circumstances require.
