Nonsense

We're subject to the literal whims of creatures with absolutely no understanding of Human Life or of the responsibilities of Citizenship.  They scream and throw temper tantrums that would embarrass an actual child while making demands that are absolutely insane.  Their ignorance of ethics and economics lead to demands that could only be enforced by those with an total lack of conscience such as Pol Pot and the Khmer Rouge.  They're non-sentient animals who deserve only our contempt.  But these walking brain death cases didn't appear out of nowhere.  Their precursors, and actual mothers had made themselves known.  When I was an active member of the Libertarian Party a group of the precursors made an appearance at a Tax Day protest:


Who, you may ask, are the Art Sluts? 

Once upon a time ago (during Gulf War I) when I was an active member, the Libertarian Party of Minnesota was holding their Tax Day demonstration by the west entrance of the Minneapolis post office. We were handing out our party theft day literature to our fellow victims of socialist compassion. I was at the time wearing a dress shirt and tie to distinguish myself the Grassroots Party in their more proletarian garb. This didn't always succeed, as there was one woman who thought I was pothead and exhibited a near-psychotic fear of same. 

But since the Grassroots crowd were a bunch of socialists perhaps that fear wasn't so irrational.  At about ten p.m., a dozen (my estimate, I didn't get an exact count) female humanoids (they were shaped like females) in tight black somethings came marching by wearing gas masks (not something one would want to wear in cold weather) and big--like three foot wide--yellow bows with price tags marked "$60,000,000,000" They were handing out little red cards identifying themselves as "Sluts for Peace/Art/Humanity/Sanity and the Earth". (With a name like that, did they really expect to be taken seriously?)
One side of their card read:


Midnight approaches. Let's talk about death and taxes. (They weren't very talkative) How much did you pay? For what? We see red. (One really can't see very much in a gas mask.)

The other side of the card read as follows: 

Stay where you are now silent, or
Let us assist you in asking
Universal Questions about life.
This is it, our only life on earth;
Speak to your heart.

Now if they really wanted an emotional conversation (Oh wow man! Reason! What a concept!) the least they could have done was to leave a phone number where they could be reached. As it is, this was simply another instance of mindless posturing, (possibly a "New Age" voodoo ceremony or a audition for a NEA or other government arts grant) interfering with rational political discourse. I had to explain to someone that I was not one of the Art Sluts before he would take one of our Libertarian theft day fliers. At the time I thought that at future demonstrations I should wear my BDU Woodland pattern cammo jacket. 


Nonsense is nonsense.

Opinions

The mask is fogging up my glasses.

The main problem of the Democratic Party is that they believe in coercion.

What the Republican Party needs to get through their collective skulls right now is the fact that the age of politics as usual is over.  No more compromise.  No more deals.  No more bipartisanship.  There must be a radical clean up of the mess that the Left has created.  The partisans of Socialism must be systematically removed from our public institutions.  And if we are to have a future as the core nation of our civilization we must make a special effort to clean out the Augean Stables that our educational establishment has become under the tutelage of the Left.  And we must with volume and clarity tell the spoiled brats who imagine themselves to be the heirs of Marx and Lenin to grow up or get out.

In the Collectivist version of a social and political order founded on the Primacy of the Parasite the ordinary person is looked upon as a tool to be used, the product of their labor is treated as the property of the collective which is distributed in accordance to those needs which are identified by the leaders of the collective.  An individual who's retired from the workforce requires food, housing, and medical care, all of which is taken from the collective pool of assets without any input to the resource pool from the retiree in return.  From the point of view of the collective leadership a retiree is a liability to the collective.  The good of the collective requires the reduction of such liabilities as early as possible. Thus it is in the best interest of the collective to encourage self termination by the elderly and the seriously or terminally ill.  It's also in the best interest of the collective to abort those fetuses that won't grow up to be productive workers in the collective.  If you think that what I just wrote is outrageous then think again.  One group of Collectivists, the National Socialists of Germany, actually carried out a program of euthanasia on developmentally challenged individuals of all ages.  Anyone who believes that an individual has no inherent Right to Life is capable of believing anything and as history has demonstrated capable of doing anything.

Problem

Some people don't understand that Leslie is a gender neutral name.  This has led to no small amount of annoyance with people who expect to interact with a woman.  For example, I had an appointment to see an optometrist one week.  The woman who called to confirm the appointment heard a male voice and didn't understand that she was actually speaking to the correct person.  She also came across as being dumb in general.  The appointment itself was another CF altogether.  I waited thirty one minutes after the specified time of the visit before I walked out without being seen by the optometrist.  This is inexcusable.

One of the effects of having a gender neutral primary name is that I'd receive telephone calls from people who assume that I'm a woman.  Just after I returned from a multiple hour road trip someone made a cold call to my phone number.  An obviously young African-American woman asked me if she could speak to Miss Bates.

I said, "who?"

She immediately hung up.

This is clearly incorrect.

While my is voice clearly male in origin the caller apparently didn't think about what she was doing.  I could have been honestly asking to correctly state the name of the person she sought to speak to.  Furthermore she didn't give any thought to the possibility that a husband, son or other male guest may have answered the phone.

But then it really doesn't take any thought to be an African-American.

Personal History

One of the problems I had with driving a taxi on the night shift is having to go into bars in order to find the person who called for the cab.  I really don't like bars and I really hate drunks.  One night I had to go into Nye's Bar in Northeast Minneapolis to find the passenger.  She was clearly drunk and once she was in the car she exhibited grossly rude and hostile behavior.   I dumped her out back where I found her.

Deaths

On January 27, 1986 the space shuttle Challenger was accidentally destroyed during launch with all seven persons aboard.  Also on this day the Church of Scientology made their official announcement that L. Ron Hubbard had died.  In doing so they put forth a nonsense story that their founder had dropped his body and no mention was made of the fact that he'd suffered a stroke a week before.*  The true believers were then shocked to discover that no one outside the cult gave a damn about that useless malingering REMF** piece of excrement.  (Yes, I know I'm insulting excrement.)  They're particularly upset everyone was more concerned about the deaths of seven Wogs*** than with the passing of the most important being on the planet.****  L. Ron Hubbard will eventually be remembered as the vile man he actually was.

Today is also Holocaust Remembrance Day. 

* I personally favor the pillow over the face as the actual cause of death.
** Rear Echelon Mother F***er.
*** Wog is the Scientologist term for a nonmember and the functional equivalent of the N-word.
**** Adolf Hitler used to think of himself that way too.

Quote

“Communism attributes ultimate value to the state. Man is made for the state and not the state for man….Man is a means to that end. Man has no inalienable rights. His only rights are derived from, and conferred by, the state. Under such a system, the fountain of freedom runs dry. Restricted are man’s liberties of press and assembly, his freedom to vote, and his freedom to listen and to read. Art, religion, education, music, and science come under the gripping yoke of government control. Man must be a dutiful servant to the omnipotent state. All of this is contrary, not only to the Christian doctrine of God, but also to the Christian estimate of man. Christianity insists that man is an end because he is a child of God, made in God’s image. Man is more than a producing animal guided by economic forces…”

Opinion

The doctrine of Scientology (as I understand it) contradicts the three axioms of Objectivism.  Existence Exists.  Existence is Identity.  Consciousness is Identification.  In the doctrine of Scientology (as I understand it) the reality that we perceive in unreal.  This contradicts the first two axioms of Objectivism. In the doctrine of Scientology (as I understand it) Consciousness precedes Existence. This makes every Objectivist an automatic opponent of Scientology, and thus a Suppressive Person.  In my opinion there are more Objectivists in major metropolitan areas in the United States than there are Scientologists worldwide.

Opinion

The thoroughly unpleasant fact of reality is that Hollywood is run by a bunch of unimaginative twerps, the kind of people that Ayn Rand used to call Second Handers.  It's the kind of mentality that wants to maximize profits but is unwilling to try something distinctly new or different.  Thus the glut of sequels and the ongoing cinemisation of the successful television series.  Even if the project isn't a sequel or a series adaptation, the Second Handers still attempt to reduce risk by only combining elements that appeared to have worked in the past. Thus The Adventures of Pluto Nash, an movie that combines the elements of Eddie Murphy, Computer Generated Imagery, and the Sci-Fi environment, still turns out to be an unwatchable piece of crap. (When I saw the trailer at the 2002 Convergence, my thought was, oh its Moon Zero Two: The Next Generation.)

Another problem is realism.  While certain liberties can be taken with space operas films set in the real world (including 2001: A Space Odyssey) should be as realistic as possible as permitted by the film's budget.  My own personal BS alarm went off when I saw the trailer for the second Charlie's Angels flick.  It showed a scene where the main rotor on a helicopter gunship began to self deploy.  A mechanism for moving rotor blades from the storage position to the operational position would add weight to the aircraft.  This is a bad thing in military aircraft.  And if the additional weight wasn't an issue a self deploy system would still be useless in the operation context for one very good reason.  Every helicopter operated by an air force or army aviation unit comes with something called a ground crew.  A bunch of people whose job is to open, close, fold, and unfold components and perform maintenance on the aircraft.  When I see a BS element in an advertisement for a movie I as a rule usually tend to avoid seeing it. 

There's the issue of personal aesthetics.  While a brain dead bimbo with obviously fake hair, eyebrows, lips, and breasts may be attractive to the urban pimp and his clientele.  As I've said else where, I find such creatures to be repulsive. something about such such females just says "STAY AWAY" in big ugly letters.  I absolutely refuse to see anything with Angolina Jolie in it, even for free.  That's how put off by cosmetological fakery I am.

Opinion

If the collection of pressure groups that compose the Democratic party want to preserve their influence, which is to say their power and their loot, without which they'll shrivel and die, they'll resort to any means, no matter how depraved and destructive to stop the Republican program.  We'll certainly see a significant increase in election fraud and Brownshirt actions -- assaults by campus commies and union thugs -- against Republican supporters.  We should also expect a campaign of outright terrorism, assaults on persons and property, and assassination attempts directed at Republican office holders at all levels of government, their family members, and their local supporters.   Such terrorism as carried out by a self-styled "people's resistance" could find eager support from hostile states such as Islamist Iran, North Korea, and Red China, or private support from a backstabbing piece of garbage such as George Soros.  And if we're really serious about practicing the doctrine of preemption we should sic the SEC on Soros.  I find it hard to believe that he's been able to play his destructive currency exchange games against several free Asian nations and our ally Great Britain without violating at least one SEC regulation.

I know it’s not original but I had to do it, so here’s the Dead Prophet Sketch.


The cast:  Tom Cruise, a short guy.  David Miscavige, a really short guy.


Tom Cruise enters the shop pushing a large leather chair with dead old man on it.

TC: Hello, I want to complain.

(Miscavige doesn’t respond.)

TC: Hello, Miss?

DM: What do you mean "miss"?

TC: I'm sorry, I have a cold. I wish to make a complaint!

DM: We're closing for lunch.

TC: Never mind that! I’m here to complain about this prophet that I purchased about half an hour ago from this shop.

DM: Oh yes, the, uh, the Nebraska Red. What's, uh...What's wrong with him?

TC: He's dead, that's what's wrong with him!

DM: No, no, 'e's uh,...he's resting.

TC: Look, I know a dead prophet when I see one, and I'm looking at one right now.

DM: No, no, he's not dead, he's, he's resting! Remarkable prophet, isn't, it? Beautiful haircut!

TC: But he's stone dead.

DM: Nononono, no, no! He's resting!

TC: All right then, if he's resting, I'll wake him up! (shouting at the chair) 'Hello, Ronnie! I've got some lovely cash for you to grab if you show...

(Miscavige hits the chair)

DM: There, he moved!

TC: No, he didn't, that was you hitting the chair!

DM: I never!!

TC: Yes, you did!

Owner: I never, never did anything...

TC: (yelling and hitting the chair repeatedly) HELLO RONNIE!!!!! Testing! Testing! Testing! Testing! This is your nine o'clock alarm call!

(Takes Hubbard out of the chair and thumps his head on the counter. Stands him up and watches him fall to the floor.)

TC: Now that's what I call a dead prophet.

DM: No, no.....No, he's stunned!

TC: STUNNED?!?

DM: Yeah! You stunned him, just as he was waking up! Nebraska Reds stun easily, sir.

TC: Now look... I've definitely had enough of this. That prophet clearly deceased, and when I bought him not half an hour ago, you assured me that its total lack of movement was due to it being tired and shagged out following a prolonged lecture.

DM: Well, he's...he's, ah...probably pining for the wheat fields.

TC: PINING for the WHEAT FIELDS?!?!?!? What kind of talk is that?  And why did he fall flat on his back the moment I got him home?

DM: Nebraska Reds prefer to lay on the back! Remarkable prophet, isn’t he? Lovely haircut!

TC: Look, I took the liberty of examining that prophet when I got him home, and I discovered the only reason that it had been sitting in his chair in the first place was that he had been NAILED there.

(pause)

DM: Well, of course he was nailed there! If I hadn't nailed him down, he would have stood up and gone VOOM!

TC: "VOOM"?!? Sir, this man wouldn't "voom" if you put four million volts through him! He's totally demised!

DM: No, no! He's pining!

TC: He's not pining! He’s passed on! This prophet is no more! He has ceased to be! He’s expired and gone to meet his maker! He’s a stiff! Bereft of life, he rests in peace! If you hadn't nailed him to the chair he'd be pushing up the daisies! His metabolic processes are now history! He’s off the twig! He’s kicked the bucket, He’s shuffled off his mortal coil and moved on to Target Two!! THIS IS AN EX-PROPHET!!

(pause)

DM: Well, I'd better replace him, then. (he takes a quick peek behind the counter) Sorry sir, I've had a look 'round the back of the shop we're out of prophets.

TC: I see. I see, I get the picture.

DM: I got a slug.

(pause)

TC: Does it talk?

DM: Nnnnot really.

TC: WELL IT'S NOT A REPLACEMENT, IS IT?!!???!!?

DM: N-no, I guess not. (gets ashamed, looks at his feet)

TC: Well?

DM: It leaves a trail of slime.

TC: All right.

Actions always have consequences.  Some people on the Left side of the political isle don't understand their negative actions will always have negative consequences.  Some people on the Left side of the political isle DO understand their negative actions will always have negative consequences.  That's many of those on the Left side of the political isle do advocate Gun Control.  They don't want to suffer the natural consequences of their actions.  One of the consequences of coercion is that the victim will become angry.  The French Revolution was brought about by the victims of coercive acts by the Aristocracy and Clergy.  The United States appears to headed in the same direction.

Those who are opposed to a particular form of coercion will be denounced by those who favor that particular form of coercion. 

We must remember that Socialism is essentially a Master/Slave ideology.  If you'll pardon me for quoting the First Trustifarian: From each according to their ability, to each according to their needs.  And for the Socialists, as with the antebellum slaveholders the needs of the masters will always be much greater than the needs of the slaves.  But now the Socialist master class, both here in the United States and abroad now see themselves being dispossessed of what according to their ideology is rightfully theirs.  Control of their slaves and the products of slave labor.  What shouldn't be a surprise to us is that the response of the Socialist master class and their supporters is in many ways similar to the actions of the antebellum slaveholder class and their supporters.  Those who reject the chains of the Left are subjected to public ridicule and slander by the self-styled intellectuals and subject to physical violence by the goon squad, with the ski-mask replacing the white sheet as the attire of choice.  If you'll pardon me for the use of shocking language, to the master class of the Left we who reject the chains of Socialism are (regardless of our actual race) no better than a bunch of "Uppity Niggers."  It shouldn't be a surprise to us that they're treating us as such.

History Lesson

What most people don’t realize is that The Matrix is really a remake of the 1969 East German film Wirklichkeit ist eine Illusion, also lassen Sie uns sprechen Rätsel, Eintragfaden-Polizei und Tanzkampf (Reality is an Illusion, so Let Us Speak Riddles, Shoot Police and Dancefight).  This film was made in response to the large number of philosophically obscure European films released in 1968 and the East German Communists didn’t want to be left in the dust by their Western opposite numbers (It’s the RED pill for a reason).  Unfortunately the East German censors weren't read in on the project or they didn’t care then refused to approve of its release and the film was placed into storage until the fall of the East German Communist government in 1989.  After a very short limited release a number of VHS copies of the film made it to Los Angeles and the rest is history.

(Yes, I’m kidding.)

Reality can't rewritten by the wish of anyone, no matter what their intentions or ideology.  Instead of objectively observing the real world and thus learning how to become the master of it progressives willfully ignore the facts of reality and stumble about in a surreal fog from error to error, to ultimately stumble about from disaster to disaster.  Progressives openly state their desire to rule over the whole of Humanity and then proceed to conclusively demonstrate that they're totally unfit to do so.

It's Happening Again

Happy New Year.

 Why did The Holocaust happen?

The actual author of the Book of Genesis actually had a point: Evil often presents itself as Good.

The Holocaust wasn't a unique event.  The Holocaust (and other horrors) were the result of normal people acting normally.  Why did a particular horror happen?  There's an answer but you may not like it.  A horror happened because the perpetrators believed they were good people with their victims and opponents being evil.  We've seen this before with numerous horrors and it will happen again.  What we're dealing with are people who believe they're good people.  We have to deal with them as such no matter how horrible the things they actually do.  Many of the people who’re loudly proclaiming “never again” are going to do it again.  The National Socialists and Soviets believed themselves to be good people, we're seeing the same phenomena with Anti-Fa.  Anti-Fa claims to be opposed to Fascism no matter what they actually do.  Anti-Fa does the things that Fascists actually do.  Members of Anti-Fa will believe the lies they're told regardless of the consequences.  Members of Anti-Fa claim to oppose Fascism, in fact they're what Fascists are.  Most members of Anti-Fa don't know that they're following the dictators handbook.  Most proponents of tyranny, such as members of Anti-Fa (National Socialists, Soviet Communists, etc.) believe they're good people and that their opponents are evil.  If a dogma requires the commission of a vile act then that act WILL be committed.  When someone denies their own Humanity then they WILL commit crimes against Humanity.  It's very easy to predict what a self appointed opponent of Fascism will say.  Just take a mouth dropping of a National Socialist and replace the word Jew with the word Fascist.

Those who don't remember history are a highly sought after group of followers.  We identify The Holocaust as the horrible act it actually was.  And we should be horrified.  But we're seeing The Holocaust from an objective perspective.  From the subjective perspective the perpetrators of The Holocaust saw themselves (apart from some psychopaths) as being good people doing good things with their victims and opponents as being evil.  We're seeing this again with the Marxists who make up the membership of Anti-fa.  They see themselves as being good and their victims as being evil.  I've said this before: Killing a Marxist isn't an act of murder, it's an act of self defense.  I have a warning for members of Anti-fa, when you Brownshirt someone, don't be surprised that you're treated as a Brownshirt.  I've found through direct experience that the opposition really believe they're the good guys.  If a member of Anti-fa wants to see a Totalitarian, all they have to do is look in a mirror.  Totalitarians are never hiding under the bed, they're in plain view.  For those who value power no act is too vile.  Killing a member of Anti-Fa isn't an act of murder, it's an act of self defense.  Members of Anti-fa should be engaged with aircraft like the AC-130 and A-10.  A Fascist isn't who the self styled opponents of the doctrine believe they are.  WE HAVE THE DUTY to see the self described antifascist as they truly are a National Socialist piece of shit who should be hanged from the neck until dead.  And WE HAVE THE DUTY to identify the Mainstream Media are a bunch of liars.  Once a difference in opinion is criminalized a civil war is inevitable.

Voltaire said it: Those who believe absurdities will commit atrocities.

I have a question for members of Anti-Fa and BLM: what part of "Never Again" didn't you understand?

Why don't we assassinate Joe Biden and/or Kamala Harris?  Because their assassinations won't solve the problem.  The actual problem is a culture that holds the rights of individuals in contempt.  The assassination of Biden and/or Harris won't solve that problem.
