ANOTHER WHACKO LOSES JOB AFTER TDS ATTACK

   I heard about this incident right before the holidays, but hadn't heard about the outcome. It seems that a fellow in Tucker, Georgia (a suburb of Atlanta) went into a 'vape' shop. He was wearing a pro-Trump t-shirt; when the clerk behind the counter saw him and had a TDS breakdown. 

    The customer videotaped the outburst and shared it on Youtube. It shows the clerk demanding that the customer leave the store while screaming obscenities and throwing merchandise around, according to NBC-11 Atlanta. As shocked patrons looked on and began slipping quietly out of the store, the clerk pulled out his cellphone and began screaming into the receiver.

    "I got a f***er in my store who won't leave," he says into his phone. "He's wearing some Trump stuff. He's wearing some Trump bull**** got some racist bull**** [uninteligible]. I'm f*****, I'm not f***** serving anyone that has anything to do with that f*****."

    The clerk then ran through the store raving incoherently about fascists, racists, capitalists, and something to do with human feces. 

    The video went viral on Youtube; and after the owners of the Xhale City stores, found themselves getting laughed at, they investigated. Not only did they fire the whacko clerk, they also contacted the customer and apologized. Oh well, the clerk can always get a job with the Corporate Media, where such behavior is routine. 

    On a more serious note though, Conservatives need to be extra vigilant these days. As we've seen from the 2016 Election to the Kavanaugh Confirmation Hearings; the Left is becoming increasingly dangerous. They've always been prone to irrational acts of violence but the difference today is that they're suddenly going off---like human time-bombs---anyplace, anywhere, and when they do, they go blind to their own self-preservation instincts. Not only are they losing their jobs or ending up in jail; but some have even injured or killed themselves during these outbursts. 

    Obviously we shouldn't live in fear, but we should be aware of what Leftists are prone to do and be prepared. Especially in places like Tucker, Georgia. According to statistics, Tucker's crime rate is 41% higher and their graduation rate 20% lower than the rest of Georgia. 36% percent of the population there is below the poverty line---so you know with numbers like these that the chances are high that most residents there are Democrats. Criminals, ignoramuses, and bums are the ones who benefit most from Liberalism and are most easily provoked to irrational violence.

THE 12 RULES vs. JORDANETICS

   Our last post questioning Vox Day's claims about his publishing 'empire' drew some discussion across the Internet, and justly so. Some readers have been questioning his latest 'bestseller', Jordanetics, which is a supposed expose of Dr. Jordan Peterson. Vox made this claim for his publication back in November: 

    "In 'Jordanetics' political philosopher Vox Day delves deeply into the core philosophy that Jordan Peterson advocates both in his written works and video lectures. In doing so, Day methodically builds a shocking case that will convince even the most skeptical Jordan Peterson supporter to reconsider both the man and his teachings."

     Ever since the release of Jordanetics, Vox has been trumpeting that his 'expose' is selling #1 on Amazon and Kindle; and that Peterson and his followers are ignoring all of these supposedly "shocking cases" which Vox provides. But, as we saw in our last post, it's mathematically impossible for Vox to outsell Peterson. 

     Someone linked to our last post on the website Kiwi Farms (thank you to our readers there). One of their contributors who goes by the name of 'Flexo', provided some stats from Kindle which reveal the truth. On sites like Kindle, publishers can create categories for their works---which means that they can create niches where they have little or no competition. While Kindle doesn't provide sales numbers, they do provide sales rankings which don't include the parameters. Thus we find that:

The 12 Rules for Life by Jordan Peterson (1 year in print)  ranks #213th. 

Jordanetics by Vox Day (3 months in print) ranks #17,355th. 

     So, a year after its initial release, The 12 Rules is still in the Top 250 on Kindle, while Jordanetics---a the top of its release date---hasn't even cracked five figures in the rankings. 

     Based on the tax figures that Vox' Castalia House submitted to the EU Tax Authority, we calculated that combined sales for the Red Pills are around $955/month. Jordanetics sells on Kindle for $5.99. If these were the only sales that CH had during the last three months, the maximum number of Jordanetics sold couldn't be higher than 477 copies. In contrast, it's estimated that The 12 Rules for Life has sold over 2,000,000 copies as of December 31st. 

      Bear in mind that Vox won't release any actual sales figures, so we're making estimates based upon available information. But what clearly appears is that Jordanetics and Vox' attacks on Peterson are simply publicity stunts without any real substance.

VOX DAY'S FUNDING FURTHER QUESTIONED

     After our last post questioning the rather shady connections between Vox Day's fundraising figures and his actual sales numbers, an astute reader pointed out that tax laws in the European Union and the United States have a noticeable difference. EU countries impose a Value-Added Tax (VAT) for goods manufactured within member nations. Now if Vox' sales are really so formidable that "industry leaders are quaking in their boots', then this should be reflected in EU tax records. 

    As a background here, Vox started up Castalia House in 2014 after getting kicked out of the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers Association for trolling and doxxing other members. This project was supposed to dominate the publishing industry---which of course it hasn't. In 2017, Arkhaven Comics was added to the CH 'empire'. Vox outsourced the company to Finland, where it is registered as a domestic corporation. 


     Vox himself is an expat to Italy---which by the EU's own admission is a notorious haven for EU tax cheats. From there and from Finland, both former members of the WW2 Axis Powers, Vox is constantly undermining American culture, religion, and politics as furiously as the domestic parasites on the Far Left do. 

     But that aside, we find some interesting things about Castalia House by consulting the Finnish tax records. Here is their entry in the Business Index:



      One of things that is noteworthy is that CH isn't even listed as a publisher; which is rather odd considering that Vox is constantly boasting about being an 'industry leader.' The main line of business listed here is 'computer programming activities.'  It's somewhat strange that when one goes to the CH link at Vox' blog, this page comes up:


     But when one goes to the website at the Finnish Business Index, this page comes up instead:


    'Alpenwolf' does provide a link to CH, but it's mostly a video-game site. CH is actually listed as an alternative, or affiliated name for Alpenwolf. But it does seem a bit fishy that Vox is representing to his followers one thing and to the Finnish Government another. Which brings up the secondary question of where donors' money to Vox' crowdfunding campaigns actually go. The defunct campaign on Indiegogo lists 'Arkhaven Comics' of Helsinki as the sponsor. But as we've seen, Arkhaven operates under a company not even registered as a publisher. 




     Under Finnish Tax Laws, publishers are subject to a VAT of 10%, which is collected by the European Union Tax Authority. And there is no VAT registration number connected with Alpenwolf, Castalia House, or Arkhaven. According to the Business Index, this company held a VAT Registration until 2015, and has not been renewed. 

      What does this mean? Finland has an exemption from VAT for businesses whose products gross less than 10,000 Euros per annum. (about $11,470 US dollars) Thus it means that CH's entire output grosses less than $11, 470---this includes all of their 'groundbreaking' science-fiction; Arkhaven Comics; Jordanetics; Vox Day's writings: etc. Divided by 12, this figure comes out to a paltry $955.83 in average monthly sales, at best. 

    To put that figure in perspective, consider that the average SSDI benefits for an American welfare recipient is $1,125 monthly. And we have a series of misrepresentations on top of it all. 

     And all of those hundreds of thousands of donated funds? Well, their whereabouts still remains a mystery.

WISCONSIN JUDGE SLAPS DOWN ATTEMPT TO BREAK CHURCHES

    Shortly before Christmas, Judge William Atkinson of Brown County, Wisconsin, annulled a De Pere city ordinance which attempted to force homo acceptance onto area churches. The degenerates on the De Pere City Council passed the ordinance late last year---to go into effect in March---which required businesses, employers, landlords, and others "in the public venue" to submit to homo infiltration under the pretext of non-discrimination. De Pere's ordinance also demanded that churches obey the edict.

  The week before the law was to go into effect, the City was sued by five area churches and a Christian radio station on the grounds that the ordinance was unconstitutional. Judge Atkinson agreed. Not only that, the Judge found the case so clear that he issued a Summary Judgement against the City, avoiding a jury trial.

 "Court finds that churches and their campuses are not public accommodations and the city of De Pere's ordinance infringes on the freedom of religion. Court grants plaintiff's motion for summary judgment and denies defendant's motion to dismiss," the Judge flatly stated, without further comment. But Kevin Snyder, one of the Plaintiffs' attorneys told CBN News the detailed legal ramifications of the case:


 "The ordinance was calculated to re-label religious institutions as places of public accommodation. Had the court gone the other way, it would have been the first time in the country that a church or religious ministry was deemed a place of public accommodation...The city is entitled to its own worldview on religion, marital status, and sexual orientation. But it cannot use the power of the state to pry open the doors of a church to force it to participate in conduct against its faith through the guise of an anti-discrimination law."
  Thus, we can see that if the De Pere Ordinance had stood, religious liberty would have been placed in serious jeopardy. 

   The Whacko Left Wing was infuriated over the decision, to say the least. City Attorney Judy Schmidt-Lehman stormed out of the courtroom without even a word to the Media. The Media, of course, was rooting for the City and against the churches. The local press, with the Green Bay Press-Gazette surpassing all of the others in its virulence, could barely contain their collective outrage. All of this is very symbolic of our gains in 2018. 

    And let's hope that the next year sees the pushback move from churches to other venues that social venues co-opted by the Rainbow Gang.

ALT-HERO COMICS' DISASTROUS YEAR

   In January, Red Pill cultist Vox Day announced, with considerable hoopla, the launch of Arkhaven Comics and the 'Alt-Hero' series. This series was supposedly going to dethrone industry leaders Marvel and DC Comics by celebrating the 'Alpha' ubermensch and the Game philosophy. A crowdfunding campaign netted about $250,000 to finance the project.

    After getting banned from his crowdfunding platform and nearly sued for co-opting the Comicsgate logo, a year has passed and Alt-Hero has been a complete and total failure in the marketplace. 


    According to Comichron, a website monitoring industry sales figures, Vox' publications haven't even reached the Top 500 in sales after all of this considerable publicity and crowing. It ought to have been a huge red flag---even for Vox' deluded followers---that The Supreme Dark Lord discreetly never mentions what his actual sales figures are. 

     Comichron shows that October's top-selling issue was DC's Batman #56, at 107, 578 copies, whereas the 500th spot was held by Scout Comics' Mall #2, at 1,212 copies sold. At a most optimistic estimate, Alt-Hero is doing no better than 1,200 copies per month, though we suspect that the actual number is a lot lower; probably not even into four figures. This suspicion is bolstered by the fact that Arkhaven doesn't even appear in any major retail venues. 

     Now astute readers have probably noticed that the hundreds of thousands of dollars expended in production costs nowhere near equal the profits from Arkhaven's sales. In a case like the aforementioned Scout Comics, the overhead is low because the company is essentially a consortium of independent producers. But Arkhaven is a standard industry business model where sales have to exceed expenses to be viable. 

     Alt-Hero produced five issues (with a sixth committed) before Vox went to the well for another crowdfunding infusion; meaning that each issue had a production cost of around $41,667 per month. Assuming the most optimistic sales-scenario of 1,200 copies; that figure is balanced against $4,788 in sales (at the standard industry rate of $3.99 per issue). This adds up to roughly an 88.5% FY loss; or, in more practical terms, $1 return for every $9 spent. (These numbers are of course inexact estimates, since Vox prefers operating with little or no transparency). 

     The discrepancies have begun raising some eyebrows within the industry. It does seem very strange that so many are willing to pump large sums into an unprofitable project, with no financial benefit. That's why Camestros' theory makes sense: Vox and some of his wealthy friends may indeed be using Arkhaven as a blind: donating large sums to a crowdfunding forum, grabbing headlines and fake publicity, then getting paid back or using the fund as a tax-shelter. None of this is illegal in the US (I don't know about the EU); but it is highly unethical and may explain why Vox got kicked off of Indiegogo lately. 

     Whatever the true story is, the undeniable fact is that donations to Alt-Hero are going up the chimney. Whenever the Alphas are involved, you can bet there's something fishy going on behind the scenes.

TRASH CULTURE VS. THE TRUMP GIRLS

    It can't be denied that Melania Trump and the other women in the President's family and administration have made a significant impact on our culture. American women are slowly emerging from a deep social freeze and re-learning that femininity and glamour are nothing to be ashamed of.

   But Trash Culture dies hard; and both the Alt-RINOs and the Whacko Left Wing have been stoking their respective constituencies with their versions of 'Alt-Fashion'. Along with the Gay Mafia, the Red Pills and Feminists have a stake in not Making American Women Great Again. 

    The Red Pills, courtesy of Vox Day and Arkhaven Comics, present us with their version of the Alpha Super-Woman. Their constituency is primarily composed of uneducated, sexually frustrated, truculent men who watch porn when their 'Game' fails (i.e. 99.9% of the time). As part of this lifestyle, the Red Pills imagine themselves superior to all women and practically every other man. Thus the model of femininity they present is a combination of porn star and trashy reality-TV celebrities.

     The first notable thing with Alpha 'Alt-Fashion' is a dopey expression and what the Alphas call 'the thousand mile stare.'


     And, reflecting the exaggerated physiques of porn stars, things like bleach and silicon factor strongly in Alpha Fashion:


     The insalubrity of the Alpha lifestyle also leads to the glamorization of bad health and hygiene:


     And of their clothing, it's best described as cheap, tasteless, and minimal:



     The Whacko Left Wing has been spending the last few years "deconstructing social norms of beauty;' ---which in the case of most Feminists is making a virtue of necessity. However, outside of Big Media and Big Academia their efforts have met with little or no success. Cancelling swimsuit competitions, interposing homos and fatsos into beauty pageants, and promoting androgynous celebrities hasn't resonated with the public. So the Left trotted out Michelle Obama to show us some of their 'counter-culture look'.

     
     The Left's constituency is composed largely of disinformed Middle to Upper Class Whites who engage in virtue-signalling by aping the worst elements of the cultures whom they secretly despise as inferiors. Michelle Obama here is copying the retro look of an old-school ghetto streetwalker, whom---after having stolen her client's money---fled the motel using a bedsheet for cover:


    The 'stoned' look is also an interesting feature that both Alt-RINO and Leftist women affect. That says a lot about the men who find this look appealing: 


     And the Leftist version of  'Active Wear' makes both a fashion and a political statement. They show off their 'commitment to diversity' by sporting outfits evocative of Asian and South American revolutionaries.


    The hoodie, handkerchief, and combat boots make the Leftist fashionista ready for a riot at a moment's notice. And as most binary Leftist women are thug-chasers, riots are a natural place for them to meet the Bad-Boy of Their Dreams. 

      But for normal women who believe that they deserve better than a thug, an Alpha, or a mushy male feminist, the Trump women are good models to follow.

MRS. TRUMP UNVEILS CHRISTMAS AT THE WHITE HOUSE

    First Lady Melania Trump opened the White House for Christmas 2018 this week. Mrs. Trump again designed the whole project and managed---remarkably---to surpass last year's breathtaking designs. According to the White House website, there are over 100 Open Houses scheduled and 30,000 tours planned before the Trump Family and guests join in the annual Christmas celebrations.



    The jackals in the Mainstream Media have been engaged in a collective tantrum because they again have been banned (to wit, prevented from disrupting) this year's festivities. Well, they can always go to Pelosi's house and spend Christmas listening to Colbert telling anti-Christian jokes on Comedy Channel. But the White House looks like it's going to be a fun place to be.

     



     The theme of the decorations this year is called American Treasures, which Melania explained was displayed symbolically in all the different sections of the White House to form a unified central artistic message "displaying the many splendors found across our great nation." It's noteworthy in these displays that there are many color contrasts highlighting this theme.







    It appears that what Mrs. Trump designed was to create the artistic effect of synthesizing diverse themes, represented by these color schemes, into a crescendo of unity---by which she used the White House itself as actually symbolic of that totality. When she announced the choice of this theme, she made it a point to stress that, "this House is held in trust for all Americans," which implies that this is the effect. That really displays some sophisticated artistic talent on Melania's part. 


    Despite the obvious enormity of this project, Mrs. Trump paid considerable attention to detail. The picture above, I believe, is of the White House dining room. Notice how the artistic theme shifts here from the grandeur and splendor of 'the people's house' to a rather simple and cozy 'family space' to reflect on the important and personal features of the holidays. And the same with the living-room:


     At any rate, Melania puts much more spirit into Christmas than what we saw during the gloomy days of the Deep State.


     Any readers interested can check out Mrs. Trump's article on the displays with a video tour at the White House website.
